NIT Trichy would be a better choice than IIT Bhubaneswar for Metallurgy because of the following reasons.

• The placements are better for in ECE than in Metallurgy.
• If students fail to get core placement in NIT Trichy, they can still try for top-notch coding and management companies recruiting from the ECE department.
• There are numerous Technical clubs for first years students who are passionate about Electronics.
• NIT Trichy has lower academic fees than IIT Bhubaneswar. But it may vary for different courses. The course fee of B.Tech in NIT is 72,100 whereas in IIT Bhubaneswar it is 1.4 lakh.
• In terms of quality of infrastructure and social life, NIT Trichy is better than IIT Bhubaneswar as it is much older.
• NIT Trichy ECE in 2019 has undergraduate placement of 95% and IIT Bhubaneswar Metallurgy has 90% placement in 2019.

All mentioned institutes were founded in the year 2008 except IIT Indore which was founded one year later in 2009. Reputed companies such as Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Samsung, Cognizant, Amazon, Cisco, Flipkart offers jobs to students of these IITs. 

The CSE branch at IIT Indore is comparable to the CSE branch of older IITs. Also, it is the highest recruiting branch at IIT Indore and more than 98% of students were placed in 2019. According to last year’s placement record, the average package offered at this IIT was 16.06 LPA and the highest package was 43 LPA. 

IIT Patna has a hundred percent placement in the CSE branch with an average package of 16.76 LPA. The highest package received was around 40 LPA (on-campus). 

Similarly, IIT Bhubaneswar also holds a record of a hundred percent placement in the CSE branch with an overall average package of 11.44 LPA. The highest domestic CTC offered at this IIT in 2019 was around 39 LPA. 

The CSE batch at IIT Ropar received an average package of 13.83 LPA, up from 11.5 LPA. The highest package offered was 17.45 LPA in India and the highest international package was $125000 Per annum. 

In last year’s placement drive companies like Goldman Sachs and Nutanix offered 32 LPA, and 28 LPA respectively in IIT Gandhinagar. About 80% of students were placed with an average package of 8.96 LPA. The highest package offered was 40 LPA in the year 2019. Companies like ISRO, Accenture, BHEL, IBM offers internship to students of IIT Gandhinagar.

The CSE department of all IITs are well equipped with software, hardware, and Network security labs and imparts quality education. But, judging by the placement statistics, the priority order is IIT Indore CSE > IIT Patna CSE > IIT Ropar CSE >IIT Bhubaneswar CSE >IIT Gandhinagar CSE.
 

BITS is the better choice among all as CSE has more scope than ECE. And NIT Surathkal is an old institute with a better placement record than IIT Bhubaneswar. 

Since BITS Hyderabad is the newest among all other campuses and it certainly is a little behind in terms of faculty, infrastructure, etc. But when compared on a national level it is on par with any other institute. It provides the students with a prime location to look for internships and also provides an edge to them if they are opting for off-campus placements. Although the institute provides students with decent opportunities for on-campus placements also. Around 200 companies visit the campus each year and around 94% of the student secured a job through campus placements with an average package of around 5-6 lakhs per annum and the highest package offered was as high as 14 lakhs per annum.

NIT Surathkal is among the top NITs of this country. The placements of students of this branch are also good although NIT Trichy and Warangal have better placement records. The average placement package offered at this NIT is around 14.15 LPA and 100% placement was observed for B.Tech batches in last year’s placement drive.

ECE is one of the new branches that started at IIT Bhubaneswar starting from 2016. Hence the first batch of students will graduate in 2020. In 2019, the average CTC offered in this IIT was 11.44 LPA. Many core companies, software companies, PSU’s, etc. hire electrical engineers from IIT Bhubaneswar hence one can assume the same trend to be followed for electronics and communication engineering also but the result is yet to be seen.

Below given are a few pointers which will help you determine the better choice.

• Civil Engineering Cut off in BITS Pilani is 269 which is to be scored in their BITSAT admission test. On the other hand, IIT Bhubaneswar’s cut off is 6546-13803 in JEE Main
• BITS Pilani is a popular institution and can be compared with IIT Bombay, Delhi or Kanpur but IIT Bhubaneswar which falls under the category of newer IITs is not as popular as BITS Pilani.
• Being a private institute, BITS Pilani has a higher course fee that is around 16 lakh. Whereas IIT Bhubaneswar is a Govt. institute and the course fee is much lesser than BITS Pilani, 8 lakhs(approx.).
• BITS Pilani provides an average placement package of 12 lakhs for a civil engineer but a graduate of IIT Bhubaneswar of the same stream gets an average package of 10 lakhs.
• The Engineering department of BITS Pilani ranks 4 by India Today, 5 in Outlook India, and 7 in The Week. The Engineering Department of IIT Bhubaneswar ranks 9 by India Today, 24 in Outlook, and 15 in The Week.
• BITS Pilani will be a better choice to study core engineering than in IIT Bhubaneswar due to the former's popularity among recruiters.

A University should be chosen according to the students admission test scores, JEE rank, and also financial situation.

One of my friends is pursuing his Electrical Engineering from IIT Bhubaneswar. He had the cutoff required for CS at NIT Warangal but chose IIT Bhubaneswar instead. Although IIT Bhubaneswar is a still developing institute than NIT Warangal but still let’s look upon some points to contrast between these colleges.

Academics:

• In terms of infrastructure and laboratories, IIT Bhubaneswar does have many labs for all the students under graduation, post-graduation, and Ph.D. The labs are well-equipped to carry out the course works. 
• At the undergraduate level, you do not need to do fundamental research works. You will work under the professors researching in various fields. 

So, even though IIT Bhubaneswar is a new institute, it can certainly offer the required amenities.

Student Crowd:

For the quality of students to be compared, IIT Bhubaneswar has students between 1000 and 6000 JEE Advanced rank holders which are definitely better than the group of students in NIT Warangal.

Faculty:

IIT Bhubaneswar has less experienced faculty but they have immense knowledge. If approached, they clear all the doubts and help in all the academic-related works.

Placements:

• IIT Bhubaneswar has witnessed increasing placements in recent years. 
• Currently, NIT Warangal is ahead for the placement section due to the vast alumni base. 
• But you should not choose an institute purely based on placement statistics. A good placement record does not guarantee you will get a good job offer too. Also, placements depend a lot on how you perform during the placement process.

Extra-Curricular Activities:

• IIT Bhubaneswar does have activities and fests and cultural events but these events in NIT Warangal have fests that are much bigger and recognized than IIT Bhubaneswar. 
• In the Inter-IIT meets and competitions, IIT Bhubaneswar secured ranks under the top 6 institutes among all 23 institutes participating in the meet.

Sports:

There are upcoming events planned for the sports in the coming years in IIT Bhubaneswar but there are no such great facilities now as compared to NIT Warangal.

For postgraduate courses, i.e. Masters or PhDs NIT Warangal is a great option. However, undergraduate students do not benefit much from the research happening and other accomplishments of old reputed institutes like NIT Warangal. So, for an undergraduate degree, IIT Bhubaneswar is better than NIT Warangal.
