How good is Heritage Institute of technology in mechanical department?

JJ
Jason Jose Posted On : November 10th, 2022
Studied at Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata

It's distinctly average. When it comes to placement in core branches (civil, mechanical, and electrical), the majority of its students are placed in IT companies, with only a few placed in core companies. It's not because of the college, but because of the caliber of the students. To get a job in a core company, you have to work extremely hard from the first day of college. You must be well-versed in your subjects. You won't find all of the faculties beneficial, though some of them are. However, regardless of the circumstances, you must comprehend all concepts and apply them in real life with the assistance of a teacher or on your own. Every year, many core companies visit campus and offer higher salaries than IT companies.

So you must study in order to pass their interviews. To advance in your career, you must pass exams such as GATE or IES. And keep in mind that this is the case in almost every college in India. Heritage is no exception.

ECE has more job opportunities than Mechanical Engineering. After completing Mechanical Engineering, you will get jobs in PSUs, in government organizations.

  • If you are looking for a job after B.Tech or M.Tech then ECE will be a good option for you.
  • But if you want to pursue higher studies and looking to go into a research field then choose according to your interest.

In the following table, you will get basic information about Mechanical at NIT Calicut and ECE at NIT Jamshedpur.

Category NIT Jamshedpur ECE NIT Calicut Mechanical
Fees INR 1.88 Lakh (1st Year) INR 1.25 Lakh
Recruiters Amazon, Unacademy, Global Logic, Humming Wave, etc. Cognizant, Samsung, Accolite, Aditya Birla Capital, etc.
Average CTC INR 4.5 LPA INR. 7.40 LPA
Lowest CTC INR 3.5 LPA INR 5 LPA
Highest CTC INR 37 LPA INR. 43.17 LPA

Which one is better: aerospace engineering in IIT Kanpur, aerospace engineering in IIT Madras, mechanical engineering IIT BHU, or ECE in IIT BHU?

A
Admin Posted On : June 21st, 2024

First of all you need to lose this ideology that ECE has more scope and mechanical or aerospace engineering has less scope. Every field has top notch research going in it and provides dynamic and challenging work opportunities. 

I also had the same dilemma and I chose Aerospace engineering at IIT Madras over other departments due to following reasons:-

  • IIT Madras has state of the art facilities that focus on practical and industry oriented knowledge.
  • The syllabus of Aerospace follows the latest curriculum and incorporates the latest industry trends such as Structures, Aerodynamics, Propulsion, Controls, and System Design.
  • IIT Madras is in the heart of the city with a lot of entertainment hubs nearby.
  • IIT Kanpur has a NIRF ranking of 4th with IIT Madras at 1st and IIT BHU at 15th.
  • The Average salary for IIT BHU Mechanical and ECE is 12.5 LPA and 22.85 LPA.
  • The Average package for IIT Madras Aerospace Engineering is 21 LPA.
  • The Average package for IIT Kanpur Aerospace Engineering is 20 LPA.

IIEST, Shibpur formerly known as BESU is doing really well in all the departments. Whether it is about faculty or infrastructure it is growing steadily and gradually.

But as one wants to take a deeper look in comparing mechanical engineering, EE and ETC, let’s take a look on it:

  • The research facility of the mechanical engineering department is quite decent and comparable with EE and ETC.
  • It is even better at some aspects like it has research collaboration with some of the renowned foreign universities, some of the excellent facilities etc.
  • When IIEST, Shibpur was known as BESU even then the mechanical engineering was considered to be the highest ranking department in one of these three departments.
  • Also, one cannot forget to boast of tremendous alumni including a couple of directors of IITs.

  • When it comes to placement, the mechanical engineering department has a decent placement record so far.
  • ME and EE have almost equal numbers of core placements. And ETC has less core placements but the highest package is grabbed by ETC itself.
  • The placement for mechanical engineering is really good though. Core companies such as Maruti Suzuki, CESC, Vedanta, coal India, Tata steel, Bridge and Roof, L&T, elegant marine services come on campus.
  • So you can easily expect a very bright future of mechanical engineering graduates from IIEST SHIBPUR.
  • After becoming an IIEST the placements have improved and after 5 years it will improve more.
  • IIEST, Shibpur has always been known for its excellent core teachings. Also, it has one of the best and oldest labs in the country in EE and Mech which has been improved from time to time.
