Electrical Engineering at IIT (BHU) has a well-documented and strong placement record, with high placement rates (81–86%) and top packages reaching up to ?1.68 crore per annum (in B.Tech overall, with Electrical also benefitting from high offers).
The Max CTC for Electronics Engineering is ?50 LPA for 2024–2025, which is less than the highest mentioned for Electrical. However, placement details for Electronics Engineering are less commonly recorded. This might, however, represent a single offer or a particular position rather than the branch's highest or average overall.
Both branches are highly sought after and have strong industry connections, but Electrical Engineering currently has more publicly available and impressive placement statistics.
IIT BHU is among the top Engineering colleges in India. NIRF 2020 has ranked IIT BHU in the 11th position for BTech. The average placement rate for all branches at the institute is 71%.
Electronics Engineering:
From the Electronics Engineering department at IIT-BHU, almost 95% of the students get placed each year. Placements of Electronics are par with Computer Science Placements.
Electrical Engineering:
The Electrical Department has very good placement records over the years. In last year’s placement, around 90% of the students from the department were placed.
Besides this all the Non-Core Sector Companies in the domain Analytics, Business, Management, Consultancies, etc. offer jobs in both departments but some software companies are open only for Electronics but generally overall companies visiting the campus for Electronics and Electrical Engineering are nearly the same. Hence according to the statistics, the placements of the Electronics Department are better than the Electrical Engineering Department.
