NIT Calicut is a great option for pursuing Architecture. The department has excellent faculty members. Most of the professors are well-experienced. You can get their help regarding any academic problems you may face during your course.
NIT Calicut placements are decent for Architecture. L&T is one of the major recruiters that visit the campus placement frequently.
This course gives you the freedom like no other engineering courses. There are many students from different parts of the world, living away from their families for the very first time, feeling lost and scared. But they end up forming a family amongst them.
NIT has numerous clubs where you can pursue a hobby. You can even start a club of your own. If that becomes a bigger commitment, you can also take part in organizing cultural and tech fests. Even if you don’t want to do anything, you can sit and relax.

Whatever you do, the people you meet in NIT are very cooperative and friendly. As far as studies are concerned, you might not remember what your teachers have taught you, but you would definitely remember whatever you have learned from your friends and batchmates.
The course demands you to be hardworking. This department here is well known for their unity amongst themselves. As it is a national college, the course is well-organized.
My friend did his B. Arch from BIT Mesra, so I can give you a brief idea about the course.
Architecture depends on your vision, on your projection, and how you see the world. Therefore, college views could differ. Architecture is not like maths which would be the same throughout the world, it is designing and depends on how you can plan your thoughts.
Some of the striking features of BIT-Mesra (Architecture) are as follows.
Going by the above factors, it is safe to say that BIT Mesra is a good option for pursuing a degree in Architecture.
NIT Calicut is among the country’s best NITs. It is an institute of national importance. The placements are definitely good at NIT Calicut.
Placement highlights of the year 2020 for NIT Calicut.
NIT Calicut is among the very few NITs that offer programs in Architecture and will not disappoint you.
From the half-century of its existence, the newfound department of Architecture had produced 800 graduates in Architecture and 300 postgraduates in Town Planning.
NASA (National Association of Students of Architecture) was founded by the undergrad students collectively. The association is non-political and non-profitable. The department has a dynamic student’s body. Even its Alumni are spread across the world and the senior-junior relationship is wonderful.

Placement:
IIEST Shibpur is one of the best colleges in eastern India in terms of infrastructure, campus, cultural fests (REBECA), and accommodation. The architecture department is the most active. Five years of architecture are packed with learning and growing.
When it comes to comparison between BIT Mesra and NIT Trichy, the latter is way better than the former. Therefore, it is evident that the placement at NIT Trichy is also better than BIT Mesra.
A few points to note:
NIT Trichy would be a better choice upon BIT Mesra when it comes to architecture. But, the choice is yours.
NIT Calicut CSE is a better option compared to IIT KGP Agricultural. It offers good academics and placement opportunities for CSE. Companies like Amazon, Cisco, Infosys, Microsoft, etc. visit NT Calicut placements. During 2022 campus drive, students of CSE received an average CTC of around INR 20 LPA. The highest package for CSE goes up to INR 49-50 LPA.
All three colleges fall on the list of top Architecture institutes in India. NIT Calicut and NIT Trichy are known for Architecture as their best programs. Having to know some people studying in these institutes, I can say that though NITs are the best for architecture, Jamia is also at par with them.
Categories | Architecture at NIT Trichy | Architecture at NIT Calicut | Architecture at Jamia Millia Islamia |
Course Fee | 7.00 lakh | 6.78 lakh | 55,750 |
Highest CTC | 20 LPA | 16 LPA | 12-13 LPA |
Average CTC | 10 LPA | 8 LPA | 6-7 LPA |
Therefore, it is suggested that you opt for NIT Trichy or Calicut for pursuing architecture. If not then you can go for Jamia instead, as it is also a good college.
