Bachelor’s in pharmaceutical engineering at IIT-BHU is one of the most sought out degrees. There is a number of reasons to substantiate the above statement.
Firstly, IIT-BHU has been ranked 11 among top engineering colleges in India by NIRF 2020 ranking. This gives an upper-hand to the students passing out from here. The syllabus of Pharmaceutical Engineering incorporates the recent industry trends which keep the students updated with the industry requirement.
The placement cell is excellent and provides lucrative packages to the students. Top recruiters in the core sector include Dr. Reddy’s, Zydus, Matrix laboratories, Mylan, Sun-Pharma, etc. As pharmaceutical engineering is more research-oriented the starting packages in core placements are low as compared to the other sectors but it increases with experience.
Students can opt for non-core placements too, top non-core recruiters are Sony, IBM, Cognizant, TCS, Accenture, Wipro, Musigma, Evaluserve, and many more. Adding on to there is a wide scope of higher studies at foreign universities too.
If you are willing to join Management/Analytics/Consulting or IT sector then choose Ceramic Engineering in IIT BHU. Compared to JU, IITs offer much better non-core placements.
If you want to join core companies or PSUs then you should choose JU over IIT BHU. Many core recruiters offer job opportunities to JU Chemical Engineering students. Some of the major core recruiters that visit the campus placement regularly are PepsiCo, Cocacola, ITC, Budwiser, RIL, etc. Well-renowned non-core companies like L&T Infotech, TCS Digital, Infosys, etc visit the JU campus placement as well. One other advantage of choosing Chemical Engineering at JU over Ceramic Engineering at IIT BHU is the public sector. SMPCIL and Vizag Steel are the only two PSUs in Ceramic Engineering.
