Should I take NIT Goa for Electrical and Electronics Engineering or GEC for Civil Engineering? I am interested in both.

Before diving into any conclusion, it is important that you understand the basic difference between B.Tech and B.E degrees. Following which, you have to clarify the doubts you have regarding both NIT Goa and Goa Engineering College. If you weigh the general brand value that arrives with the NIT tag, you will then already be more exposed to the industrial demands and explore better opportunities at NIT. However, there has been a genuine depreciation at Goa Engineering College. You can possibly go out, looking for particular job offers after the completion of the B.E degree but you will obtain better placements by the college cell itself. When talking about the faculty, there are several Ph.D graduates from most of the top institutions who have been teaching at NIT Goa. The highest salary package was 16 LPA at NIT Goa. On the other hand, at GEC, you might or might not secure placement. Their highest package sometimes does not reach even up to 7 LPA. Categories EEE at NIT Goa Civil at GEC Course Fee 5.38 lakh 2.90 lakh Highest CTC 16 LPA 6-7 LPA Average CTC 6-8 LPA 3.5 LPA Recruiting Companies TCS, Infosys, Bosch, Schneider Electric, etc. IBM, Wipro, TCS, Tata Steel, etc. Therefore, it is suggested that you opt for NIT Goa, as it will provide you with better opportunities. They have an active placement cell, which not only helps with placements but also conducts seminars, internships and industrial visits.

About the place main terror around average 10 to 12 companies coming for placements and 6270% of students getting placed. Rest the remaining students are helped by the teachers to get placement in the companies which they know.

Study of heat of hydration in mass concreting

I have never applied for loan or any scholarship during my course in engineering at GEC. There's a special provision for students whose parents have a low annual income. Tution fee is waived for those students under Tution fee waiver scheme. Book bank scheme is also available for selected candidates.
