Bachelor of Technology [B.Tech] (Mechanical Engineering) From HBTU, Kanpur

Q: Should I take admission in mechanical at KIIT University, HBTI Kanpur or IET Lucknow?

KIIT will take all of your parents hard-earned money. They will allow your entire batch to sit in some 2 to 4 average companies through campus placement, but if you want to work for any services-based IT company, you can get admission to KIIT. If GATE/IES/PSU is your goal, it is best to study in a college that is close to your home and has lower fees. HBTI is the best not only in UP but across the country, with an excellent alumni base dating back to 1921. Each year, the best students from UP attend this prestigious institute. IET is not bad, but when compared to HBTI, it falls short in terms of placements, alumni base, academics, and so on.

HBTU: 3 Answered Questions

What should I prefer: Mechanical Engineering at HBTI, Kanpur or CSE at IET, Lucknow?

Ajay LakhraStudied at Institute of Engineering and Technology, Lucknow

Both of the institutions are situated at a distance of 80 km from each other. IET Lucknow is situated in the industrial capital of Uttar Pradesh and the HBTI Kanpur is situated in the Political capital. If you live in one of the two cities, you can choose accordingly; otherwise, this factor has no significance.

According to AKTU, both the institutes are ranked at number 1 and number 2 in UP, but the situation is completely different analytically. HBTI is a well-known institution and has been the parent institute of IIT Kanpur and Uttar Pradesh Textile Institute.
Both the institutes are government-run with complete control over examinations and the curriculum of courses offered by them.
If you enjoy programming, Computer Science would be the appropriate course for you, while Mechanical Engineering is for those who want to acquire a genuine sense of what engineering is all about.
The faculty of IET Lucknow is better than that of HBTI.
You will have numerous opportunities outside the campus. The placement statistics for the mechanical department are not very good at both institutes, but placement in the CS department is extremely good.

Make your decision based on the branch and not the institution as it would have a major impact on your career.

Should I take admission in mechanical at KIIT University, HBTI Kanpur or IET Lucknow?

HBTI is the best not only in UP but across the country, with an excellent alumni base dating back to 1921. Each year, the best students from UP attend this prestigious institute.

IET is not bad, but when compared to HBTI, it falls short in terms of placements, alumni base, academics, and so on.

Which is the better choice for mechanical engineering, NIT Raipur or HBTU Kanpur?

Arijit SahaiB.Tech. Chemical Engineering, Harcourt Butler Technical University, Kanpur (2020)

Having talked to people at NIT Raipur and HBTU Kanpur, I have gathered reasons why students should opt for NIT Raipur instead of HBTU Kanpur for B.Tech.

These are described below -

NIT has a brand value as it has a renowned name and fame, which will benefit you in many ways.
There is a more competitive environment in NIT if compared to HTBU.
There are more technical, cultural, and sports events in NIT than HTBU which helps the student to develop their personality and intelligence.
NIT is a government-funded college so more funds are given to NITs, which help them to provide more facilities to the students like Advance labs and classes.
The alumni reach of NIT is more than HBTU.
The average placement of NIT Raipur is better than the HBTU.
Students can avail 100% fee waiver if the students have low family income.

The table shows a brief overview of the institutions:

Particulars	NIT Raipur	HBTU Kanpur
Median Salary	Rs. 9.5 lakhs	Rs. 7.18 lakhs
Highest Salary	Rs. 33 lakhs	Rs. 60 lakhs
Entrance Criteria	JEE Mains	JEE Mains
