What should I opt for, VSSUT Burla mechanical or NIT Rourkela for food processing?
The choice between VSSUT Burla Mechanical and NIT Rourkela Food Processing depends on whether you are a fresher or a dropper and your plans.
- Mechanical at VSSUT is the best option if you are a dropper because in your case the branch matters.
- However, if you are a fresher and are certain that you can perform better in the entrance exam next year, forgo both options.
- But if you are just willing to get a BTech degree and are planning to pursue higher education in Management, then NIT will be better because it has better coaching institutes and environment. Also, the infrastructure is far better than VSSUT.
- If you are willing to clear GATE then choose a core branch like mechanical at VSSUT is better.
- If you want to get employed somehow, then mechanical engineering has a great scope in most industries.
Ultimately consider your interests and future goals for the decision.
Is mechanical engineering at UIET better than BIET Jhansi?
Yes, UIET is better for Mechanical Engineering. Compared to state government colleges, it receives better funding. So, the placements, exposure, and career opportunities offered are better. Companies such as Bajaj, Tata, etc. take part in UIET Chandigarh placements. The highest CTC offered for mechanical engineering students in recent years is around INR 12 LPA.
What is the current scenario of M.Tech placement in NIT Agartala for the mechanical branch?
M.Tech Mechanical from NIT Agartala is a decent choice. After this course, you can become a researcher or join the workforce.
The faculty for Mechanical is quite supportive, and there is almost no pressure from their side. You’ll have to depend on self-study, but the freedom is unmatched. The lab facility isn’t top-notch, so students collaborate with other colleges for research work.
Data is not available for branch-wise placements. But overall, last year, out of 161 graduating M.Tech students, 106 were placed at a median package of INR 6.50 LPA.
Which is better, IIT BHU for mechanical or IIT Indore for mechanical?
Both are good IIT’s but IIT BHU being an old institute offers a vast alumni network due to which placements percentage is high. Also being 100 years old institution IIT BHU has well-established labs with good equipment. Whereas, IIT Indore is a new IIT and still developing. According to NIRF Rankings, IIT BHU has a better ranking that Indore: IIT BHU(11), IIT Indore(13).
Mechanical Department is one of the oldest departments of IIT BHU and has many experienced faculties who are experts in their fields. Research culture at IIT BHU is also better than IIT Indore and there is a lab in IIT BHU being sponsored by DRDO for research. The course curriculum for Mechanical is nearly the same at both the colleges. As IIT Indore is recently established (2008) it has modern infrastructure while the infrastructure of IIT BHU is quite old.
Apart from academics, the IIT BHU Gymkhana has lots of clubs and councils like Sports, Science and Tech Council, Film & Media Council, Cultural Societies which boosts personality as well as skills. Also, IIT BHU has 3 fests (Spardha, Technex and Kashiyatra) that witnessed the participation of students from over 1500+ colleges and schools and top motivational speakers and celebrities.
Regarding placements stats of IIT BHU, top companies, and government organizations like DRDO, ISRO, IAF, Maruti, Bajaj, L&T, BHEL, HUL, IOCL, etc. visits campus for recruiting students. In 2019 a total of 109 students got placement from Mechanical Engineering with average salary package ranging between 10 LPA to 58.21 LPA. The average package offered in IIT Indore was around 16 LPA. Placements of IIT BHU has an edge over IIT Indore.
So, overall IIT BHU Mechanical is better than IIT Indore Mechanical.
Which is best for Mechanical: RCOEM, VIT, MIT, Walchand College or Sardar Patel?
Among the given choices, Walchand College is the best option for a Mechanical Degree.
- Walchand has a great faculty base, a good curriculum, and excellent laboratory facilities.

How is the mechanical department at Haldia Institute of Technology, and what about placement?
Haldia Institute of Technology is the first private engineering college for Mechanical Engineering. It is considered as one of the best 10 branches in the institute.
Nowadays, HIT is not offering good teaching methods in mechanical engineering due to a lack of good faculty members. The lab facilities are very good and well-equipped with the latest technologies like IC Engine, Thermal, Production, Manufacturing, Mechanism, Metrology, and welding labs.
One of the main factors here is the placement records. The placement for the core branches is not that good. Only a few percent of the students get packages above 11 LPA. The majority of the students end up with packages near about 5 to 7 lakhs per annum. The remaining students receive packages up to 3 lakhs per annum.
Recent placement status: -
- 10 LPA or more - 6 students (HPL)
- 8 to 10 LPA - 11 students (Infosys, Wipro)
- 5 to 7 LPA - 23 students (Topcem)
- 3 to 5 LPA - 79 students
The preparation for GATE is the best part as students get a lot of time and help from the institute.
If I am getting COEP CS or mechanical and ICT Mumbai chemical, which one I should choose?
You should choose COEP CS. The placement record for the branch is excellent. If you maintain good grades for four years and have the required skills, getting good placement opportunities won’t be difficult.
TCS, Accenture, Infosys, etc. are some of the major recruiters that recruit CS students through campus placements. The highlights of COEP placements show the average CTC for CSE to be around INR 6.5 LPA. While the highest CTC goes up to INR 30 LPA.
Which is better for mechanical: DTU or IIT (ISM) Dhanbad?
You should choose the college closer to your home. Both the colleges DTU and IIT Dhanbad are Tier-1 engineering colleges in India.
Degree Outcome:
- Most of the students from these popular Indian colleges practice coding irrespective of their branch and become Computer engineers depending on their skills.
- The companies visiting for placements do not give much importance to the academic credentials of the candidate as they are only concerned about the TopCoder and GitHub profiles in the applicant’s resume. The salary packages offered by these companies range between 5-50 LPA (depending on the skill of the applicant).
- Many students also become managers in various industries based on their hard work, luck, and personal learning. The companies mainly focus on the previous academic credential of the candidate. The salary packages offered for managerial positions to the students is between 5-15 LPA.
Given below is an overview of both the colleges.

The more well-grounded and genuine way to become a Mechanical or Automobile Engineer in India is to become proficient in the GATE/ IES ME curriculum and participate in some competitive exams to secure a job in the government sector.
Mechanical engineering is getting outdated and people are not getting in any good place in India by doing Mechanical engineering. This program is even getting shut in various developed countries. So, choose wisely.

My brother was a student of Mechanical Engineering at IIT Guwahati and I have a few points as to why IIT Guwahati is better than BITS
- IIT Guwahati has a spectacular campus surrounded by natural beauty giving it a resort-like ambiance.
- The accommodation facilities are top both with every student getting single rooms right from the first year
- Your passions and hobbies are given importance and you will find many that share your interests
- Excellent sports facilities
- The Mechanical Engineering department of IIT Guwahati has excellent faculty, especially in fluids, solids and thermal.
A few drawbacks of the institute are
- Its remote location leaves you isolated with no place to hangout near
- The Mechanical branch has mainly boys only
All in all, IIT Guwahati should not be your choice if you want a laid-back college life filled with fun. However, if you are sincere about your career and want to pursue mechanical engineering, IIT Guwahati is the right place for you.
