How is NIT Raipur for biomedical engineering?

Biomedical Engineering is a branch of engineering that deals with the manufacturing of instruments that would serve medical sectors. So, if you have even a slight interest in Medical Science, go for it. If not, I suggest you consider other options. 

I feel choosing Biomedical Engineering is actually a bold decision as most engineering aspirants have a sheep mentality and prefer branches like CSE and IT only although they have no interest in them. All they care about are placements and many even regret later in life.

The sad truth is there is very little scope for the Biomedical branch in India and the placement opportunities are limited. The government also does not invest much in this field and only a handful of companies hire the students of this branch. Last year 21 offers were made to 37 students of the branch. 

Overall, NIT Raipur is a decent choice for Biomedical as there are several research options too.
