Should I take chemical at BITS Pilani or take a drop?

SM
Sayantani Mitra Posted On : July 20th, 2021
Studied at University of Mumbai (2019)

One of my friends studied Chemical Engineering at BITS Pilani. According to him, it is a really tough stream. It is suggested not to drop a year instead ensure that you work very hard.

  • Spend over 12 hours self study every single day for a year.
  • You should be able to get under 1000 rank in JEE next year which might be worth taking a year drop.
  • But if you have secured a much higher BITSAT score, and if you think you won't be able to work this hard, then simply take whatever you are getting at Pilani.
  • Try to graduate with a CGPA of 8.5+ and go for an MS/Ph.D. in any area of your interest.

Herewith I'm providing the basic details for BITS Pilani :

PARAMETERS BITS PILANI
Tuition Fees INR 1.78 LPA
Placement Percentage 99%
Average Package INR 17 LPA

If you opt to drop and secure admission in an IIT, you will be getting only one degree after 4 years. Whereas, you can get 2 individual degrees from BITS after 5 years. There is not much of a difference between BITS and IITs. It is certainly better than the new ones. The top 5 or 6 IITs are better than BITS but letting go of one more year might not be a wise decision.

Government College of Engineering and Technology Jammu offers undergraduate courses in Engineering. However, these courses are Bachelor in Engineering and not Bachelor of Technology. The primary difference between BE and BTech is that the former focuses on the theoretical foundations of engineering students whereas the latter is an application-based degree.

GCET Jammu offers BE in Civil Engineering the duration of which is 4 years. The eligibility criteria to get admission to this program is 

  • At least 50% marks in aggregate in 10+2 with English, Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry as subjects from J&K Board of School Education or its equivalent. 

One of my friends recently completed the program and told me that the placement scenario is hopeless with an average package of around INR 2-3 LPA. 

So, I will recommend you to go to a better institute.

Which department is better in NIT Trichy, Civil Engineering or Chemical Engineering?

SS
Sitesh Seh Posted On : August 31st, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India

It’s difficult to compare these branches or any other branches of engineering until and unless you specify the parameters of comparison. Scope, placements, future opportunities, etc., play an important role in differentiating the branches. Also, you should choose based on your interest and future goal while opting for a branch rather than on such parameters.

Now, if you do not have any interest in any particular branch and like most of the students out there, are doing it for the B.Tech tag, you can opt for any of the branches. Both the branches at NIT Trichy are at par. You will get decent placement opportunities from both the branch, provided you maintain decent CGPA. According to the recent placement highlights, the average CTC offered by NIT Trichy is 6 LPA.

R
Rishabh Posted On : July 12th, 2024
Student at IIT Bombay

I am a second-year chemical engineering student at IIT Bombay. I think you should opt for Chemical Engineering at IIT Bombay. 

IIT Bombay received 3rd position in the Engineering category as per NIRF 2023 Ranking. In the Placements 2023, the highest package bagged at IIT Bombay was INR 1.68 CPA. OCl, BPCL, ONGC, Reliance Industries, etc. recruit students from the Chemical Department of our institution. 

Here is a comparison table between IIT Bombay Chemical and IIT BHU:

Top Recruiters 2023

(The branch-wise placement data for IIT Bombay is not available)

IIT Bombay is located in a mega-city, with great industry exposure, and easy access to other cities like Bengaluru and Hyderabad. Moreover, IIT Bombay is a much bigger brand than IIT BHU, and it offers much better placements.

Thus, I would recommend you choose B.Tech Chemical at IIT Bombay in place of B.Tech CSE at IIT BHU.

Which is better, ceramic engineering in IIT BHU or chemical engineering in Jadavpur University?

AS
Aditya Saha Posted On : February 14th, 2022
Jadavpur University student at Jadavpur University - Department of Construction Engineering

If you are willing to join Management/Analytics/Consulting or IT sector then choose Ceramic Engineering in IIT BHU. Compared to JU, IITs offer much better non-core placements. 

If you want to join core companies or PSUs then you should choose JU over IIT BHU. Many core recruiters offer job opportunities to JU Chemical Engineering students. Some of the major core recruiters that visit the campus placement regularly are PepsiCo, Cocacola, ITC, Budwiser, RIL, etc. Well-renowned non-core companies like L&T Infotech, TCS Digital, Infosys, etc visit the JU campus placement as well. One other advantage of choosing Chemical Engineering at JU over Ceramic Engineering at IIT BHU is the public sector. SMPCIL and Vizag Steel are the only two PSUs in Ceramic Engineering.

Ameesh Kumar Singh Posted On : August 6th, 2021
Studied at the Institute of Engineering and Technology, Lucknow

IET Lucknow is a good option if it's the last option for you. Chemical engineering is not up to the mark. Having friends from IET Lucknow and online reviews here are some tips for you –

  • Labs are in poor condition.
  • The faculty is also just average.
  • Hostel life is great.
  • The connection speed is fast and HBTI is lackluster in terms of internet connectivity.

Statistics –

Particulars IET Lucknow
Total fees INR 3.44 Lakhs
Placement percent 30%
Highest salary INR 7 LPA
Average salary INR 5 LPA
Top recruiter Tata Consultancy Services

What IET Lucknow is good for is that you get a lot of holidays here and one can easily prepare for various competitive exams as all coaching centers are near so in a way it opens career options because of its location. Or you can try internships.

Join here if you are not getting HBTI or any good NIT or IIT.
