Which is better- Electronics engineering at IIT BHU or ECE at IIT Guwahati?

PP
Pratik Parikh Posted On : May 5th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

Both IIT Guwahati and IIT BHU are highly comparable to each other in terms of academic and professional excellence. However, both have their own unique strengths and weaknesses and my answer will guide you to make the most appropriate choice 

Course structure: The course structure of both EE at IIT BHU and ECE at IIT Guwahati is similar and has very few differences. 

Infrastructure: IIT Guwahati has better infrastructure because of its later establishment. IIT Guwahati is known for its extremely beautiful campus with rich natural beauty.

Alumni: Being older, IIT BHU has a longstanding legacy of excellence. This has a positive effect on the placements.

Culture: IIT BHU has a rich and dynamic work culture that is generally not found in engineering colleges.

Faculty and peer pool: Both IIT BHU and IIT Guwahati have excellent faculty and peer pool being reputed institutions.

Ultimately, it’s all about personal inclinations and there is no fixed right or better choice.

Which is better, taking EI in SGSITS or E&TC in IET-DAVV?

SM
Sukalyan Majhi Posted On : March 30th, 2021
Studied at Institute of Engineering and Technology, DAVV

Some of the facts are listed below to help you understand which one is better in taking admission.

  1. SGSITS has its brand name. No one even knows about the institute about IET-DAVV; generally, the students who are staying outside of Madhya Pradesh.
  2. There are not enough differences in the syllabus of these two institutes. And for this reason, you have to study yourself to perform better.
  3. If you want to pursue higher studies, then seats are limited in the good colleges for instrumentation. For this reason, the candidate number is also less. Thus, you have a preference to alter your stream for higher studies. One of my friends has told me that many people studied very hard and appeared in GATE although they have studied opted EI in B.Tech.
  4. If you are looking for placement, then DAVV is the best. This institute always has better placement statistics than the other one that is SGSITS. My friend also told me that in DAVV, most of the students from E&TC, despite EI, are preferred by the recruitment companies.

In the following, the placement statistics of these two institutes are highlighted.

Criteria

IET-DAVV

Highest CTC

33-32 LPA

Lowest CTC

If you have not so many ideas about the stream and do not aware of the institutional tag; then it is better to choose E&TC in DAVV. Besides, if you are considering these two institutes, then both are quite similar in terms of academics. However, E&TC also has many other fields in the future, so that the job opportunity might be expanded. Hence, it will be best to go for E&TC over EI.

Is the electronics branch at KJ Somaiya good in regards to placements as well as faculty wise?

SL
Saija Luthra Posted On : January 9th, 2023
Alumni of KJSCE

As you may be aware, KJ Somaiya is autonomous, so the curriculum and coursework are both flexible. Furthermore, the exams will end earlier, resulting in longer vacations that can be used effectively for internships or summer courses. Because of its autonomous status, a large number of companies come to recruit.

If you score 50% overall, you are eligible to apply to all companies. Whatever your field, the same set of companies will come, and if you aren't eligible, you can apply from elsewhere.

What should I take: IIT BHU Electronics or IIT Kanpur Chemical Engineering?

A
Ajay Posted On : June 12th, 2024
Student at IIT Kanpur

I am a student of IIT Kanpur. In terms of infrastructure and facilities, IIT Kanpur is way ahead of IIT BHU. It is one of the oldest and topmost IITs. Even though IIT BHU was actually established in 1919 as Banaras Engineering College, it became an IIT in 2012. 

Here is a comparison between the Electronics branch of IIT BHU and Chemical branch of IIT Kanpur based on multiple factors:

Parameters

IIT BHU Electronics (2023 Placements)

IIT Kanpur Chemical (2024- Phase1 Placements)

Year of Establishment

Originally-1919; Became an IIT-2012

1959

NIRF 2023 Engineering Ranking

15

4

Placement %

90.83 %

82%

Median Package

INR 30 LPA 

INR 16 LPA

Highest Package

INR 50 LPA

-

Average Package

INR 29.56 LPA

INR 18.9 LPA

Top Recruiters

Microsoft, Google, Goldman Sachs, Apple, Samsung, etc. 

-

(The branch-wise data for 2024 placements of IIT BHU is not yet available. On the other hand, the IIT Kanpur 2024 placements are still ongoing, because of which, the figures are comparatively very small).

If you wish to jump into an IT career, Electronics is a better choice as compared to Chemical. However, IIT Kanpur will provide you with much better exposure, and much wider opportunities as compared to IIT BHU. Additionally, you can learn coding even as a student of Chemical Engineering. This way, even if you don’t get as many IT-based job opportunities on campus, you’ll easily get an off campus offer. The IIT Kanpur tag will help you get into top international universities for higher studies and research work. 

Based on these factors, I would suggest you choose Chemical Engineering at IIT Kanpur over Electronics at IIT BHU.

Which is better, IIT (BHU) Electronics, IIT Guwahati ECE, IIT Hyderabad Maths and Computing, or IIITH CSE?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : May 16th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

Rather than giving you a direct answer, I am going to evaluate all The aforementioned institutes individually on the basis of some common parameters like placements, brand name, campus life, opportunities, and alumni.

IIT BHU ECE

  • Core placements are rare and students mostly build their profile for software development companies by becoming proficient in various programming languages, doing competitive coding, doing projects, and trying to build a computer science-inclined profile. A handful of students target core engineering roles.
  • The brand value is similar to other colleges mentioned
  • The campus is rather old and might disappoint freshers expecting a good college life.

IIT Guwahati ECE

  • Unfortunately, I have no knowledge about this Institute. However, I recommend you contact the seniors of IIT Guwahati for the same.

IIT Hyderabad Maths and Computing

  • Usually, MNCs attract top-tier software and financial services firms. If you are a hardworking student, it wouldn’t be difficult to secure amazing offers at top firms.

IIIT Hyderabad CSE

  • IIIT H has possibly one of the best computer science departments in the country. 
  • You have to do core computer science courses right from the first year.
  • Many students get selected for Google Summer of Code and IIIT Hyderabad has its alumni in top-notch firms. 
  • Being highly academically oriented, IIIT Hyderabad has minimal campus life and extracurricular activities.

Ultimately, it’s a matter of preferences and what you are looking for in your degree.
