In regards to choosing a branch, it's important to note that Civil is generally considered a core branch, while Design is not. It's up to you to determine which branch aligns with your interests. While institutes do matter, the branch you choose matters even more.
- When it comes to the quality of teaching, the professors in the Civil department at IIT Bhubaneswar are quite good.
- If you're looking for better campus life and more exposure, IIT Guwahati may be the better choice for you. However, if you're interested in participating in extracurricular activities such as societies and fests, IIT Bhubaneswar may be a better option since there are fewer students. Keep in mind that the sports facilities at IIT Guwahati are superior to those at IIT Bhubaneswar.
- When it comes to placements, IIT Guwahati's design branch will primarily offer non-core placements. However, at IIT Bhubaneswar, you have a much better chance of getting core placements, with more than 70% of students securing them this year.
- If you're interested in technical work, IIT Bhubaneswar's Civil branch may be the better choice for you. However, keep in mind that the average package for IIT Guwahati's design branch is likely to be greater than that of IIT Bhubaneswar's Civil branch.
It doesn't make sense to me when people prepare for non-core companies from the very first year. While it's understandable if you don't find your branch interesting after the second or third year, and decide to go for a non-core company and MBA.
Ultimately, both IIT Bhubaneswar Civil Engineering and IIT Guwahati Design have pros and cons, so it is suggested going with the one that interests you the most. Review the curriculum and see which branch excites you. If you're still undecided, choose based on your future plans. If you are still deciding whether to pursue a technical career in the future, then IIT Guwahati's design branch may be the better choice for you. However, if you're interested in a technical career, then IIT Bhubaneswar's Civil branch may be the better option.
