A BEAUTIFUL CAMPUS WITH BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE AROUND- Abhishek Sharma Dhakal (Student)
ENTRANCE PREVIEW: JEE (mains) is the Entrance Exam that has to be cleared to get into this prestigious institute. For my rank, the best I could get was this particular institute, so I landed here. No, there wasn't any interview process involved. My interest in Engineering and more precisely towards Electronics made me choose the Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering branch here in NIT Silchar.

NIT Silchar: 3 Answered Questions

Which is a better choice at NIT Silchar, Mechanical or CSE?

Lipika ChakrabortyB.tech from National Institute of Technology Silchar (2020)

Most students, freshly out of school, try to choose an Engineering branch for themselves. You might be someone who has a deep passion for either Mechanical or CSE. In that case, I would advise you to follow your heart.

But if you think not opting for CSE is a bad decision, just ask yourself why you would consider CSE. Is it because you did some coding in your school days and wish to enter into that field, or simply because CSE is popular. Don’t be in the illusion of liking a branch just because everyone is recommending it. Also, don’t go for any branch solely because it has better placements than the other. As long as you enjoy a particular field, you will get good offers.

NIT Silchar

Mechanical is a good branch at NIT Silchar. Moreover, as research has become increasingly interdisciplinary in nature, various departments collaborate with one another these days. Even Mechanical has a good involvement of CSE- Robotics, CFD, etc. all involve high level coding and the knowledge of Data Structures. Because today most campuses witness IT placements more than core profiles, I would highly recommend you consult the alumni of Mechanical to figure out what placements are like in ground reality.

These are the 2022 placement stats for both the branches at NIT Silchar-

Also, NIT Silchar offers a branch change after the 2nd semester. This is based on your performance in the first two semesters. In case you feel dissatisfied with your choice, you can opt for branch change as well.

For your first year (whichever branch you choose) maintain good grades, talk to your seniors and explore your stream.

Which one should I take, NIT Silchar mechanical or IIIT Guwahati for CSE?

Tithi AggrawalLives in New Delhi

IIIT Guwahati is a relatively new institute so its placement might not be at par with NITSilchar. Here is a brief comparison of the placement statistics of both institutes

Particulars	IIIT Guwahati	NIT Silchar
No. of Companies	-	94+
Total No. of Offers	233	537
No. of Students Placed	156	397
Highest CTC	INR 61.5 LPA	INR 44 LPA
Average CTC	INR 15.34 LPA	INR 13.58 LPA
Top Recruiters	Juspay, L&T, Sigmoid Analytics, Legato Healthcare (PPO), C-DOT (Govt. of India), etc	Amazon, Microsoft, Adobe, Arcesium, Intuit

Moreover, the academic environment is much better at NIT Silchar than at IIIT Guwahati. As for the location, NIT Silchar is gradually overcoming all connectivity issues and the situation is only going to get better.

Ultimately, the final choice depends on your preferences. If you are inclined towards Mechanical, choose NIT Silchar but if you want to pursue a career in CS, definitely go for IIIT Guwahati.

Which is better, mechanical engineering from NIT Silchar, NIT Patna or NIT Goa regarding placements?

Sayam BhardwajB.Tech Mechanical Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Patna (2020)

Having some friends studying in these institutes, I can say that as per what they mentioned, NIT Patna arrives with a better placement rate than the other two counterparts.

In a nutshell, there are multiple core companies that visit the campus during the placement drive.
These include major firms like Alston transport, L&T HED, L&T Constructions, Thermal, Havells, TATA Motors and many others.
Other than these few, various other students secure placement offers in companies belonging to the IT sector and the Consultancy services.

Categories	Mechanical at NIT Silchar	Mechanical at NIT Patna	Mechanical at NIT Goa
Course Fee	5.42 lakh	5.70 lakh	5.38 lakh
Highest CTC	21 LPA	12-14 LPA	11 LPA
Average CTC	7.25 LPA	6-7 LPA	6 LPA
Recruiting Companies	Wipro, TCS, Infosys, L&T, etc.	GE, L&T, Tata Motors, Alston, etc.	Bosch, Capgemini, HP, IBM, etc.

But, apart from the factors mentioned above, NIT Silchar is several steps ahead because it has established one of the best campuses, unlike many. That is the only brownie point NIT Silchar enjoys. It is best if you still research vividly about the prospects implanted in either institutes, and see what suits you best.
