One of my cousins studied at KIIT and it is an amazing college in East India, with a wonderful infrastructure, skilled faculties, and placement records. The alumni network of KIIT is its biggest asset.
On the other hand, Maharaja SurajMal College has a decent campus. The infrastructure is quite old and students complain about the cleanliness around the campus pretty often. There is WiFi service throughout the campus. The library is common for all the branches and is not maintained well.

Now that you have almost a clear picture of both KIIT and Maharaja Surajmal college, make a wise decision for yourself considering all the above mentioned factors.
Yes, ECE students can sit for placements in IT companies and many of them even get selected in top companies as there are very few core companies visiting the campus.
Most of the recruiters don't discriminate between ECE, IT, and CSE students and allow everyone to attend interviews. While some companies like Directi, Libsys didn't allow ECE students to attend interviews.
Major companies like TCS, Infosys, Accenture, Josh Tech accept students from the ECE department and allow them to attend interviews.
If you are interested in coding, use the internet to learn rather than depending on the college. Join MOOCs from Udemy, Edx, Coursera, etc. These will make your CV appear more appealing to the recruiters.
I know people from these institutes and based on the conversations I had with them, I will say the preference order should be somewhat like below.
CSE MSIT ~ IT MAIT > ICE Thapar
Since you are considering different branches, it is clear that you don’t have any inclination towards a specific branch or specialization. If it’s true I will suggest don’t go for ICE Thapar. It is a core branch that already has fewer job opportunities in the industry. To score a decent placement at a core company for this branch you will need to be at the top of your class. Else, you are likely to end up in mass recruiting companies or software companies.
So, it will be better to stay in Delhi, it will be cost-effective, you can save up for your postgraduate degree and pursue what is in demand currently.
MSIT Delhi is a private engineering college affiliated with Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU) and is situated in the Janakpuri, New Delhi. The college offers undergraduate and postgraduate courses in various fields of engineering such as Computer Science, Information Technology, Electronics and Communication, and Mechanical Engineering.
If you are interested in pursuing engineering from MSIT Delhi, here are some key points you should know:
MSIT Delhi is a good college to pursue engineering from, and it offers excellent opportunities for students to learn, grow and succeed in their career.
Among these three colleges it will be better if you go for CSE at MSIT. As CSE is the most sorted department which will provide you with immense opportunities in the corporate field.
It is recommended that you do not opt for Thapar or especially electronics and instrumentation, as your scope will become limited. CSE or IT will open several gates for your future ahead.
Since you do not have any inclination towards any branch, a core branch like ICE which will require you to be one of the top students in the batch to secure a good job in the core company. Or you will get offered a job from mass recruitment companies.
So it is better to pay less for your undergraduate degree, stay in Delhi and pursue the course in demand.
Since I have a good friend of mine currently studying at Haldia Institute of Technology, I can answer your question about anything that concerns Haldia in particular. He is presently in his 4th-year, but he is quite well-versed with the other institutes present at MAKAUT.
So, the crux of my answer would be that if you want to focus entirely on your studies, then Haldia should be your pick.
Yes, Maharaja Surajmal Institute has extracurricular, cultural events, and societies but they are just for the sake of it. The two events that are held every year in January are Avensis and Genesis.
There is no Placement Cell for the MSI students. In the domain of sports, they have a football team and they practice twice a week. Apart from this, they have a volleyball court and a table tennis room.
One of my cousins studied at Maharaja Surajmal Institute of Technology (MSIT) and he never bought a single book for any branch.
You will get free access to all the books from the book bank. You will also get personal textbooks each semester as soon as you get your college IDs. There is an online portal available that helps in getting ideas about the books available in the book bank.
You will be required to pay for the book bank that has already been added to the college fee in the first year.
There is a book store outside of MSIT where students can buy books of Bhavya Publications which are easy to read and understand and written in simple language. It helps in scoring good marks in IPU.
Maharaja Surajmal Institute of Technology is more like a school with strict rules and regulations. The professors are known for their sternness and apathy towards the students. Well, you should not believe in such a rumor, if you have not witnessed it yourself.
Faculties:
The professors are quite cooperative here. They guide them throughout the courses. They make sure the students attend lectures over cultural fests.
Coding Culture:
The coding culture is still developing. It is eminent as there are opportunities for students to harness their skills to the best of their abilities. However, the professors are not highly experienced or in synchronization with industry which is a disadvantage on the part of the students.
Here is a brief outline of the B.Tech courses offered at the institute.
Median CTC |
4 LPA |
Highest CTC |
6 LPA |
Major recruiters |
Google, Infosys, Capgemini |
Course Fee |
5.26 lakhs |
Overall, MSIT is a decent option for a B.Tech degree but if you want to do well in academics, you have to go the extra mile yourself.
The point of concern here is your branch preference.
However, MAIT is more reputed than the remaining colleges. Here is a brief highlight of the recent placement statistics for MAIT.
Average CTC |
3.50 LPA |
Highest CTC |
28 LPA |
Major recruiters |
TCS, Amazon, ZS Associates, Deloitte, etc. |
Hope this helps.
