If you only consider placement, Electrical at MANIT Bhopal is not comparable to CSE at IIITs. So, it will be better if you choose a 4-year CSE of IIITDM or a 5-year IPG at IIIT Gwalior.

As far as placements for architecture are concerned, MANIT Bhopal is not a good option. The placement scenario is getting worse with time for students of architecture.
But the faculty and facilities are both top notch.
If you aren’t concerned about placements, you can surely opt for MANIT. Otherwise, I would suggest you opt for SPA Delhi. Whichever college you choose, try to research a bit on the pros and cons of joining it.
The situation of B.Tech Chemical at MANIT Bhopal is much better on paper than in real life.
The curriculum looks brilliant on paper, but the department faculty is relatively inexperienced to stick to it in a proper manner. The placement scenario is average, yet better than the situation of some other core branches at MANIT.
In case you want to choose Chemical only to switch to some other branch later on, make sure to maintain good grades in your first year. However, at the same time, research on the opportunities in Chemical Engineering. You might not get a branch switch. Under such circumstances, you’ll have to stick to Chemical for the remaining part of your B.Tech degree.
This field has a lot of opportunities in the government sector, private sector, IT sector and research. Chemical Engineers are considered as mainstream engineers in process and manufacturing plants. So make sure to research well before choosing Chemical Engineering.
You won’t regret joining Chemical at MANIT. At the end, everything will depend upon how much effort you are willing to put in.
I completed my B.Tech CSE from MANIT in 2018. So my first day at MANIT Bhopal was a long while ago. However, the memories of that day are still fresh in my mind.
This is how that day went-
We had to stay at the Faculty Guest House (FGH) as the rooms of H1 and H2 were completely filled. It was a pleasant day, and the weather was cool. Neither was it raining, nor was it humid.
We reached the college auditorium for the Orientation Program in a queue. The director addressed us, and congratulated us on getting into one of the premiere institutes of India. After that, we went for a department visit. Our reactions were mixed. We were happy with certain things, and completely taken aback by others.
It was a memorable day, and I’ll forever cherish the first day I entered my alma mater.
First of all, forget about SGSITS Indore as it stands nowhere in front of IIIT and MANIT. If you are looking for good placement and salary then forget MANIT Civil too. The only options you are now left with are - IIIT Allahabad dual and IIIT Amethi IT. Clearing things about IIIT Amethi, it has been closed and have been moved to IIIT Allahabad.
