What your preference is and what interests you, these two are very important at making the right choice.

If any of the two branches is of your preference and interest, then you should go for it.

If you have no such preferences and interests and you are only looking at the job prospects after graduating, then I would suggest you consider the following things:

• Government and Public Sector: These sectors provide more jobs in the electrical field. If you secure a decent GATE score, you will get a lot of interview opportunities in the PSUs. Indian Engineering Services is also an option that has more job opportunities in the electrical branch than the electronic branch. There are very limited opportunities for electronics in the public sector.
• Private Sector: It is the opposite here. The electronics sector is much ahead in the private sector. You will find a lot of companies providing good salary packages in electronics than electrical. However, the job is not core electronics but software profile.
• Faculty: The faculty at NIT Jamshedpur is better in the electrical branch than the electronic branch.
• Laboratories: Electrical branch has better labs than the electronic branch.
• Academic Curriculum: Electrical branch has a lot more pressure than the electronic branch. A few senior faculty members of the electrical branch will make you cry while in the electronic branch, you can secure good marks even by studying less.

All these are relevant factors to keep in mind before making a choice. Now, the choice is yours.

You are comparing two different engineering branches which are core and are perfect in their own place. Also, the selection of the branch should be primarily based on your interest and future plans. It is very important you choose a branch of your interest, as you will spend 4 years learning it. So, decide on the basis of your interest.

NIT Jamshedpur is much better than BIT Mesra in placements except CSE. CSE has slightly better placement in BIT Mesra than NIT Jamshedpur but then the gap is decreasing year by year. So, you can easily opt for the choice of field you want.

Let me give you some details regarding the future prospects in both of them:

Core Jobs:

• Both the branches have an equal number of core jobs and both mechanical and electrical engineers are needed at any manufacturing firm.
• So in this case, it primarily boils down to your inclination towards either of the two branches.

Non-Core Jobs:

• Electrical Engineers also have the opportunity to switch their career to software engineering without much difficulty.
• Mechanical Engineers generally don't have this Liberty.

Government Jobs:

• Mechanical Engineering has the highest no. of vacancies in PSUs and Engineering services.

Several core companies come to campus at Jamshedpur in TATA town, TATA Powers and TATA Motors pick many students for jobs as well as for internships. Now, this brings a great advantage for both Mechanical as well as Electrical branch students.

Talking about infrastructure, BIT Mesra has a more beautiful campus than NIT Jamshedpur. If you want facilities, you should go with BIT Mesra. But, placement wise NIT Jamshedpur is far ahead of BIT Mesra, which is again proving NIT Jamshedpur worth over bit Mesra.

Based on the above parameters, you can decide for yourself. Regarding the two colleges you mentioned, both are equally good and have roughly the same student quality. BIT Mesra has an edge in software profiles and NIT Jamshedpur in Core Engineering placements.

Joining NIT Jamshedpur is the most worthwhile decision you will always feel. With a small campus and high placements, NIT Jamshedpur makes a huge difference when compared to other NIT’s and other governmental colleges. It is situated in the TATA town which plays a huge role in placements as the TATA motors and TATA powers pick core branches students. And again, the fees here are quite affordable and expenses are less.

Now, coming to your question, you will be given a fee concession on the basis of your family's annual income. You will get a fee concession if your family income is below a certain amount.

• If you have your family income less than or near to 1 Lakh, your full tuition fees will be remitted. You will only have to take care of the hostel and mess expenses.
• For annual income in between 1 Lakh and 5 lakhs, your 2/3rd of the tuition fee will get remitted/semester. But same you have to hold the expenses for hostel and mess.

Note: During fee submission, you will have to pay the whole fee for the semester. At the end of the year, your tuition fees will be remitted for both semesters together.

You might have got an overview of how worthy it is to join NIT Jamshedpur if one opts for it. With Fewer fees, easily accessible things, and in the main town of Tata which helps in easy placements. It’s all good to go here.

NIT Jamshedpur is a better institute than NIT Goa, here’s why. 

• Placements: The placements of NIT Jamshedpur are better than most of the NITs including NIT Goa, and companies like Amazon, BPCL, Tata Steel, Tata Motors, Oracle, Samsung are the major recruiters here. The average package offered here is more than 6 LPA. It is the only NIT where many PSUs visit, that doesn’t even visit the top IITs. 
• Hostel: The hostels are fabulous and are one of the finest hostels as it is better than some of the IITs. The rooms are big in size with all the modern facilities available for the students including a lift inside the hostel building. 
• Academics: There is no requirement of maintaining minimum attendance so that you can both attend your classes and invest time in improving your skills and knowledge and learning new things. 
• Extracurricular: The society of Automobile teams is great. 

These are some of the primary reasons why NIT Jamshedpur is better than NIT Goa.
