The placement scenario for Material Science in IIT Bombay largely depends on the type of jobs you will be taking. There are a variety of jobs offered like core blue-collar jobs, core executive level jobs, non-core data, finance or coding type jobs.

The majority of the batch goes for non-core data jobs both finance and coding type. A lot of companies offer such roles and there is no scarcity of opportunities in this area.

Next in line are the core Executive jobs offering roles like Tata Steel), R&D, etc. These jobs are offered to a handful of students only and the companies offering such roles visit usually towards the end of placements. These roles are highly coveted among MTech students and one needs to prepare a lot to grab these roles.

Other types of jobs one can take are the Core blue collar jobs that require direct contact with the manufacturing plant. However one cannot depend on placements for such roles at all. Getting these jobs is very easy and all you need to do is keep your academic performance up to the mark and gain some experience in co-curricular projects with professors. After some time you will have identified your area of interest and your professor will help you get a job through his own contacts.

From the point of view of batch strength, JBIMS has a smaller batch size of 120 students, while SP Jain has a larger batch size of 300 students. The list of companies visiting both campuses is similar, but due to the smaller batch size at JBIMS, the options available per student are higher, resulting in better placement opportunities.

In terms of cost, JBIMS has a lower fee structure of approximately 1 lakh per year, while the fees at SP Jain can reach 10 lakhs per year when including all expenses. This results in a higher return on investment for JBIMS.

In terms of the quality of education, both colleges are equally good, but it is important not to only consider the quality of education when making a decision. Networking opportunities should also be taken into consideration, and JBIMS offers strong networking opportunities due to its strong alumni base.

In conclusion, both colleges offer great placement opportunities and it is up to personal preference and individual circumstances to determine the best option.

JBIMS saw a significant increase in average salary in 2022, rising over 20% to INR 27.63 LPA. The median CTC was INR 26.48 LPA, and the highest salary offered was INR 42 LPA. Consulting firms were a major presence during the placement drive, with companies such as Deloitte, EY, PwC, Accenture, Infosys, and KPMG among the top recruiters.

During the SPJIMR Placements 2022 Report, 75 recruiters visited the campus, with top companies including Accenture, Aditya Birla Capital, Amazon, and American Express. PGDM students received 123 PPOs/PPIs, with the highest salary offered at INR 53.16 LPA and an average salary of INR 32.06 LPA.

IIT Kanpur Chemical Engineering placement scenario is excellent and much better than that at old IITs such as KGP and Delhi. The job opportunities offered are plenty and the packages offered too are decent. 

IIT Kanpur does not release branch-wise placement statistics however, I got hold of the previous year’s placements that might help you get a slight idea of the placement scenario at IIT Kanpur.

Some of the top recruiters that offered roles to students of Chemical Engineering are

• TATA Advanced System
• Lummus Technology
• Arati Industries Ltd.
• ExxonMobil
• JP Morgan Chase & Co
• Tata Steel
• Sterlite Technologies Ltd.
• Capgemini Technology Services India Ltd
• BYJU'S - The Learning App
• Tata Consultancy Services Ltd

COE placements in Thapar University are decent and numerous opportunities are offered to its students. The reality is, the quality of roles and packages also depends largely on the profiles of the students and their skills. Many reputed firms like Microsoft IDE, Amazon, and Maruti visit the campus every year and offer lucrative packages to skilled students. Work Applications, a Japanese company offered a package of INR 30 LPA in the past. Many such offers are made. 

Many students resort to off-campus placements and end up with high packages. The reason is that the campus placements do not allow some startups because they aren't sure of their credibility. These startups offer huge packages to students in off-campus placemats. 

If you want to get placed as a COE student at Thapar University check the following points

• Learn Coding
• Create something unique
• Contribute to open source projects
• Conduct qualitative research and publish a few papers
• Participate in online coding competitions.

I will highly recommend you go for off-campus placements in Google, Microsoft Research, Oracle, Rubric, Tower Research, etc.
