What should I choose between IT at NIT KKR or Electrical at PEC Chandigarh?

The choice of a branch clearly depends on you. But, if you are wondering which among both these would be a better choice, then you can undoubtedly go for IT at NIT Kurukshetra. 

There are several reasons why-

• Placements: The average package is about 9 to 10 Lacs for CS or IT at NIT Kurukshetra. On contrary to NIT Kurukshetra, the average package provided by PEC Chandigarh for students whose branch is Electrical is known to be around 5 to 6 Lacs.
• Brand Name: The second most influential reason for choosing NIT Kurukshetra is its NIT tag. It does offer certain advantages. 

However, both of these aforementioned branches are completely different and have no personal interlinking. Thus to say, the scope for IT in various government sectors is at present near about zero, while at the same time, there is seen to be a lot of scope in the government sector for the electrical branch.

Otherwise, the salary package that a branch like IT receives is more than Electrical, since the demand for it is currently at a peak.
