Both the colleges, BIT Mesra and NIT Raipur are two profound colleges of the nation but comparing them based on different branches is not justified.

Talking about the mechanical and computer science branch, the scope of computer science is the higher and mechanical branches.

Choosing between the two, opt for NIT Raipur, CSE branch due to the scope of the particular domain.

A college is decided after taking a lot of things into consideration. You should check the college in terms of education and practical quality, faculty, opportunities, placements, etc.

• Having known some people studying in these institutes, I can say that NIT Durgapur is better than NIT Raipur.
• BIT Mesra is very good for branches like CSE.
• NIT Durgapur offers both B.Tech and dual degree (B.Tech+M.Tech) courses.
• The rest of the things are similar to NIT Raipur.
• The chemical branch at NIT Raipur has a good track record in terms of placements.
• 6 students were directly offered Ph.D. at IIT Kanpur based on their interviews and marks.
• This proves that the quality of education is really good at NIT Raipur.

You can also try ICT MUMBAI which is famous for chemical engineering. Ultimately it depends on you and what you prefer and will be suitable for you.

Having friends studying in both the institutions, I can assure you that BITS Mesra and IIIT Allahabad both are good institutes and have excellent records. It depends on your preference for CS or IT, which will get the upper hand.

In the below table you will get the basic information about CS at BITS Mesra and IT in IIIT Allahabad.

In making your decision other factors play a major role. Such as the location of college, fees, as BIT Mesra is less economical, the program you want to pursue for 4 years or 5 years, and which stream you want.

If you compare both these institutes then you can choose CS at BIT Mesra 4 year program.

I have a few friends from both institutes and based on what I heard from them I will suggest that you choose BIT Mesra IT over IIIT Kota for the CS branch.

Comparison:

A brief comparison between BIMM Pune, MNIT Jaipur, BIT Mesra, and IMS Ghaziabad is given below. 

All the colleges are good for an MBA and have something unique to offer. Based on the given information, you can decide which college meets your needs and preferences.

Having friends studying in all of these universities, I can say that they all are some of the most prestigious colleges in India. However, if you have to choose the best, go with NIT Rourkela without a second thought. Here’s why:

• According to the NIRF ranking of 2021, NIT Rourkela secured 16th position among the best engineering colleges in India and 2nd among the NITs. Thapar University and BIT Mesra were placed at 29th and 38th positions respectively.
• You will be astonished to see one of the most beautiful and eye-catching campuses in India.
• You can indulge in various clubs and other co-curricular activities for the all-around development of personality.
• The campus culture is really friendly and free of any sort of ragging and threatening activities.

NIT Rourkela is indeed the best option among these and if you manage to secure a seat, you’re lucky. Besides all the above plus points, you will eventually get the NIT brand tag which will help you throughout your career.

The best choice will be to pursue a five-year IPG from IIITM Gwalior. The reasons are below.

• There are two programs in IPG. One is IMT (IPG M. Tech) with 119 intake seats, and another is IMG (IPG MBA) with 69 intake seats. Since 2017, the institute has had a strict batch for IT+MBA, unlike before. In the past, students who failed to get a decent CGPA had no option except to take MBA after the third year and they were not allowed to take M.Tech. This is the reason, the placement statistics for the program may look average. However, the situation has changed.
• IIITM Gwalior has an excellent alumni base. Even some of the recruiters coming for campus placement have a history with the college.
• Some students even have cracked Google Summer of Code (GSOC), and most get an internship in their first year.

The placement details of the 2019-20 session for both institutes are below.

• The batch has people with diverse backgrounds and interests, making a mix of cultures.

Overall, the return on investment (ROI) from IPG IIITM is excellent, and the course saves the traditional way of bachelor and master degree time.
