There is nothing called instrumentation engineering. The students usually study the syllabus of the electronic branch that includes learning low-level languages along with the complete command of them.
If you wish to join the private sector, then only the placement facility provided by the college is useful to you.
Categories | Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering at BITS Goa | Instrumentation and Control Engineering at NIT Trichy |
Course Fee | 19.19 lakh | 5.65 lakh |
Highest CTC | 24 LPA | 22 LPA |
Average CTC | 12 LPA | 10-11 LPA |
Recruiting Companies | Texas Instruments, Qualcomm, Western Digital, JP Morgan, etc. | TCS, Infosys, Reliance, Morgan Stanley, etc. |
Last but not least we can say that the college for the instrumentation branch is the version of the electronics branch of engineering. It totally depends on you how much effort you are putting into the same and not depend on the college.
Choosing a particular college or a department actually depends on you, and how you want to shape your career ahead. Having known some people who study in both these institutions, I can say that they all have their fair share of strengths and weaknesses.
I might not be able to help you select one among them, because they are both good in their own ways. So, I will share some information about them which might help you make the choice.
Categories | Electrical Engineering at HBTU | ECE at IET Lucknow |
Course Fee | 5.17 lakhs | 3.44 lakhs |
Highest CTC | 29 LPA | 18 LPA |
Average CTC | 16 LPA | 8-9 LPA |
Recruiting Companies | Phillips, Havells, TCS, Aditya Birla, etc. | TCS, DE Shaw, Barclays, Code Nation, etc. |
It is suggested that you go for the more experienced institute, as it will prove to be better for your career ahead. You will get to learn new skills and take part in seminars and industry visits, to get a slice of the corporate world.
Having known some people studying in these colleges, I can tell you that both colleges are really good in their own ways. But, you should consider the following before you make any decision:
Categories | EE at KJ Somaiya | ETC at Vivekananda (MU) |
Course Fee | 13.50 lakhs | 4.52 lakhs |
Highest CTC | 12 LPA | 9-10 LPA |
Average CTC | 5-8 LPA | 4.5 - 5 LPA |
Recruiting Companies | L&T, TCS, Phillips, Schneider Electric, etc. | JP Morgan, Tata Power, Mercedes, Microsoft, etc. |
Both the colleges are even. It will finally depend on where your interests lie and what you would like to do. Find out if you are more interested in telecommunications or just core electronics, then choose accordingly.
Electronics will teach you more about electronic components, circuits and other basic ideas that might be required in general electronics. Telecommunications will only give you a deeper understanding of communication technologies.
To make an informed decision, it's crucial to understand that changing your choice based on the college you get into won't have much impact. You should acknowledge that Electronics and Instrumentation in BITS Pilani Goa Campus and Electrical and Electronics in NIT Surathkal are two distinct engineering streams with different colleges, and both colleges are excellent in their own right.
Your selection of the branch should entirely depend on your interest. If you are intrigued by electrical or electronic circuits or have been fascinated by electricity since childhood, EEE is the perfect fit for you. Conversely, if you have an interest in instruments or daily life gadgets that make our lives more comfortable, you should opt for E&I.
Keep in mind that EEE focuses on circuit design and development, while E&I focuses on circuit implementation in industries or the real world. EEE is a core branch that concentrates on its domain, but E&I combines all other core branches such as Mechanical, Electronics, Electrical, and even Computer Science.
Both EEE and E&I offer excellent job prospects in the market. E&I graduates can work in core fields or software industries. There is a plethora of industries related to electrical and electronics, so EEE also offers ample job opportunities. Therefore, both branches are exceptional in their way. Choose the one that piques your interest and don't sacrifice your area of interest due to college selection.
The decision should be completely based on your interests. It is always better to choose a course that has ample opportunities; otherwise, you will end up jobless. You have to maintain a good CGPA to get a placement here since the competition level is very high. BITS Pilani is comparatively better at academics and placement support than BITS, Goa, or Hyderabad.
When it comes to the selection of the course, Electronics and Instrumentation are a bit difficult for scoring a good CGPA. After this course, you are open to both CSE and EEE fields for your higher studies (based on the electives you have selected).
CSE is comparatively better, which opens up high opportunities and BITS across India provides placement support for students with good CGPA
So, choose wisely based on your interests.
Electronics and Instrumentation and Electronics and Communication are a part of the electronics department. Both the branches are perfect in their place. Since I have some friends studying Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering at IET Lucknow, I might be able to answer your question.
Particulars | Statistics |
Total fees | 4.04 Lakhs |
Placement percent | 60% |
Highest salary | INR 14 LPA |
Average salary | INR 7 LPA |
Lowest salary | INR 5 LPA |
Top recruiters | Adobe, Capgemini, Tata Projects, Maruti Suzuki, Byju’s, etc. |
The course is good but the placement stats are not very good. If good placement is what you are searching for as the main parameter then you may consider other options.
BITS Pilani does not offer an Electronics and Communication Engineering Program. When comes to ENL and EEE, there are some key points you should keep in mind as an applicant, which are listed below
Opportunities – In the current scenario, EEE opens up more opportunities than ENL. For Instance, the Indian Engineering Examination is only applicable to students from ECE and EEE
Campus – BITS Pilani is far better than BITS Hyderabad as they have well-equipped lab and infrastructure
Placement – The three batches can sit for the placement, but the companies give more weight to Communication and Digital Signal Processing
So, it is better to choose EEE than ENL at BITS Pilani.
To get admission into NITW, you need to secure a certain rank in the JEE Mains exam.

Out of the branches mentioned by you, NIT Warangal does not provide B.Tech IT. You can also check the 2023-2024 cutoffs of other branches and categories for NITW
However, I would like to tell highlight a few things-
Government colleges other than IIT D, B, and K are lagging behind in reality.
They have subpar infrastructure and their administration is old and rigid. They offer no extra support and opportunities to their students. All of this combined with the rigorous academic schedule causes plenty of frustration.
As you may be aware, KJ Somaiya is autonomous, so the curriculum and coursework are both flexible. Furthermore, the exams will end earlier, resulting in longer vacations that can be used effectively for internships or summer courses. Because of its autonomous status, a large number of companies come to recruit.
If you score 50% overall, you are eligible to apply to all companies. Whatever your field, the same set of companies will come, and if you aren't eligible, you can apply from elsewhere.
