Ques. What should I take IIT Dharwad or IIT Bhilai with Electrical, Mechanical, or IIT Dhanbad with Petroleum?

● Top Answer By Souvik Nayak on 11 Jan 21

Ans. IIT Dhanbad is known for offering the best program for a degree in Petroleum around the world. You will have the chance to secure a job with top companies with high packages, sometimes even leading up to 20 LPA.  The table below gives a brief insight into the institutes.  Particulars IIT Dharwad Electrical  IIT Bhilai MEchanical  IIT Dhanbad Petroleum  Placement Rate 60% 65% 80% Highest CTC 14 LPA 8 LPA 32 LPA Average CTC 6 LPA 3.5 LPA 8 LPA Current scenario: The number of high paying placements for Petroleum Engineering has considerably reduced after the institute became an IIT. If you have confidence on securing a well-paying job then go ahead and apply for the course in Petroleum. If placement is important to you then you might want to reconsider your options. Electrical and Mechanical observe a high number of placements considering they are core branches of Engineering. Petroleum being a niche field of study sees fewer placements. Infrastructure: (Winning Institute - IIT Dhanbad) IIT Dharwad and IIT Bhilai are fairly new and therefore still do not offer a fully-developed campus.  IIT Dhanbad, on the other hand, has a well-developed campus that offers students all modern and updated facilities such as practical labs, multiple academic blocks, a digital library, and more. In terms of Infrastructure, IIT Dhanbad is way better. Both options have their advantages and disadvantages so weigh in those and choose as you see fit.Read more

● Top Answer By Shruti on 17 May 24

Ans. Lovely Professional University does not offer a B.Tech in Petroleum Engineering.  But you can opt for B.Tech Chemical Engineering at LPU. Petroleum Engineering is a subset of Chemical Engineering. Chemical Engineering deals with the use of Chemistry to create novel compounds, food, fuel, and medications. A Chemical Engineer can work in the Petroleum Industry as well.  Both Government and Private sectors have openings for Chemical Engineers. As a Chemical Engineer, you can work in various sectors like- Process Design for Fire and Explosives, Food Industry, Pharmaceutical Industry, Thermo-Fluids, and more. The Chemical Engineering faculty and curriculum are both good at LPU. Thus, I would suggest you consider B.Tech Chemical Engineering at LPU. Read more
