Should I pursue electrical engineering at IIT Jammu or geophysics at IIT Kharagpur?
I think I am qualified to answer this question as I graduated from IIT Kharagpur Geology and Geophysics department and I am working for ARM Group in the Middle East.
You should choose IIT Kharagpur due to following reasons:-
- Geophysics offers great opportunities to apply numerical, quantitative, and computational methods to geological investigations.
- IIT Kharagpur is ranked 6th in NIRF ranking while IIT Jammu is ranked 67th.
- IIT KGP focuses on holistic development and thus has a rich extracurricular culture that helps develop bonds between students of different branches.
- IIT Kharagpur has a median salary of 18 LPA, whereas IIT Jammu pays 17 LPA.
- IIT Kharagpur is one of the oldest IITs, established in 1951. It has better infrastructure and a larger campus area of 2100 acres.
Which NIT is better for electrical engineering, NIT Rourkela or MNNIT Allahabad?
MNNIT Allahabad is better for Electrical Engineering. It offers better placement opportunities and exposure. The placement rate for the branch is around 97%. The average salary package offered for the branch stays in the range of INR 8 LPA - 9 LPA. The highest CTC goes up to INR 49 LPA. Microsoft, Adobe, Uber, Atlassian, etc. are among the major recruiters that take part in the placement drive.
Which one would be better: production in Jadavpur university, power in Jadavpur university, mechanical in Jalpaiguri, or government engineering or mechanical in Kalyani govt. engineering?
Choose the course that interests you, college is a secondary thing. Here are some of the facts that may help you in choosing the right branch for you.
- If you want to work in PSUs or Govt. sectors, it’s better to not choose Production Engineering as there are fewer recruiters.
- Jadavpur is the best college you can get through WBJEE. If you choose Production or Power in JU, you will have good on-campus job opportunities.
- Production Engineering is a branch of Mechanical Engineering itself. The syllabus will be more or less the same.
- Mechanical at Kalyani University will be slightly better than Jalpaiguri. You may not get lucrative job packages at on-campus placement from Kalyani University but in the long run, you will have a much better hold with your Mechanical degree. You can expect well-paid jobs in the future.
Your future will depend on the branch you are choosing so choose according to your interest. All these Universities will offer you enough opportunities and resources to prosper. It’s up to you to use that well.
Which is better, IIT Guwahati for CSE or IIT Delhi for EE?
Although both programs are good, I would still recommend IIT Delhi EE over IIT Guwahati CSE. Here are a few reasons that support my recommendation
- Better job opportunities: The EE department covers various CSE courses making its students eligible to sit for all CSE companies for placements. These companies include Microsoft, Tower Research, Goldman Sachs, etc. Additionally, the students also have the advantage of offers from core EE companies like Nvidia, Intel, and AMD.
- Great location: Due to its prime location, IIT Delhi is close to many places to explore in Delhi. Some of these are Connaught Place, Khan Market, HKV and the list goes on. Delhi also has better transportation and connectivity than Guwahati. Plus, Delhi has better transport connectivity and is way easier to reach than Guwahati.
- College Fests: Rendezvous, IIT Delhi's annual cultural fest is the biggest of its kind in North India. There is also Tryst, the tech fest, and Sportech, the sports fest.
- Amazing startup culture: IIT Delhi is known for its highly encouraging startup culture. Out of the 30 unicorns founded by Indians in the last few years, 15 of them were founded by IIT Delhi Alumni. IIT Delhi helps you with finding, ideas and the necessary resources for startup.
- Branch change: While branch change might be difficult in other IITs, IIT Delhi has an easy branch-changing policy with over 100 students changing their branches every year.
Hence, IIT Delhi EE is a better option than IIT Guwahati CSE.
