There has always been a stereotype that Mechanical Engineering is better suited for male than female students. Girls are pushed to take other courses like Electronics or Computer Science because they are said not to possess the physical strength required for the fieldwork in Mechanical Engineering. Even in top engineering colleges, it is seen that the male to female gender ratio is 140:10 which is fairly low as compared to other branches.

The choice of a branch to pursue should entirely depend on the individual. If a female candidate is interested to pursue Mechanical Engineering, she should be able to make that decision without apprehension. We are in the 21st century and it is high time we free ourselves of stereotypes which cause hindrance in maintaining gender equality through society. 

Mechanical Engineering doesn’t always need the aspirant to work on the field as it opens up opportunities for other fields too like Machine Design and CAD, Robotics and Mechatronics, Structural Analysis, etc. However, an individual, be it any gender, should be able to choose their career freely even if they are interested in pursuing a career in fieldwork after studying Mechanical Engineering.

IIT Bhubaneswar provides a strong faculty base and learning environment for students to pursue M.Tech. A few of the subject matters include Theory of Machines, Design of Machine elements, Power Plant Engineering, Artificial Intelligence & Neuro-Fuzzy Theory, etc. In the year 2018-19, 83% of students got placed from the Mechanical branch and the average salary offered was INR 11.44 LPA. Top recruiters included companies like TATA Steel, Maruti Suzuki, and PSUs like DRDO, ISRO, IOCL etc.
 

BIT Sindri mechanical is way better than that of many NITs and maybe some less popular IITs. Though the lab is very old still its machinery is in good condition. 

Facilities-

BIT Sindri offers great facilities and types of machinery such as a wind tunnel, and other automobiles.

• Wind Tunnel is an apparatus where models of submarines, airplanes, and other automobiles are tested to ensure that the prototypes will be working the same way as their respective models. This machine is huge and maybe you would have never seen it in your life. 
• The honeycomb maze section of the apparatus is likely to blow your mind. 
• It has been exported from IISC Bangalore, and till now even ISM does not have it.

Birsa Institute of Technology or BIT Sindri is the best college to study Mechanical Engineering. 

Thus, if you are looking to study Mechanical Engineering then BIT Sindri would be a good option. Along with good infrastructure, it also has skilled faculty and good placement. So, you can join it without any doubt.

Both Mechanical engineering and computer science engineering are two different fields of study so it’s difficult to select an institute over the other.

On the basis of NIRF (National institution ranking framework score) Rankings, IIT Bhubaneswar comes under the top 20 IITs in India. There are more than 15 faculty members for mechanical engineering and their syllabus emphasizes both the technical and communication teamwork. The school of mechanical sciences offers B.Tech in mechanical engineering, a dual degree (M.Tech- M.Tech) and M.Tech in mechanical system design and thermal sciences. Every year it also provides short-term courses, national and international conferences, workshops, project work, and many more extracurriculars. The laboratories are well equipped with 30 computational workstations and other facilities such as Material testing lab instrumentation lab etc. Moving on to placement, various reputed companies visit the campus to recruit students with an average salary package of 11.15 lakh per annum.

Whereas in NIT Andhra, there are less than 15 faculty members but the infrastructure is quite good. The laboratories for CSE are also pretty good which consist of Artificial intelligence lab, data analytics lab, and Enterprise app development lab. Top companies like Amazon, Wipro, Deloitte, etc. visit during campus placement and offers an average salary package up to 5.87 lakh per annum.

As your choice of course is different, it’s hard to select between IIT Bhubaneswar and NIT Surathkal.

According to the NIRF 2019, IIT Bhubaneswar is ranked at 26, which is a good rank considering it’s a new IIT. The Mechanical Engineering department is quite good at IIT Bhubaneswar. According to the 2019 placement record, 83% students got job offers from Mechanical Engineering in IIT Bhubaneswar. Many famous companies such as Amazon, H Jindal Stainless Ltd, KEC International, KIIT, Rao Edusolutions, TATA steel, TATA Advance System, Thermax, TETCOS, TESCO, UHG, and other companies as well recruited students last year.

NIT Surathkal is a well-reputed name in Indian Engineering institutions. According to NIRF Ranking, it ranks at 22 nationally among engineering institutes in India. ECE in this NIT is even better as compared to a few IITs. The placement records of 2018-19 show that 97% of placement offers were received by students in this department. The average placement offer was 12-13 LPA.

Both IIT Bhubaneswar for Mechanical and NIT Surathkal for ECE are good choices with their own advantages. So, choose wisely according to your convenience.
