IIT Kanpur: 1 Answered Question

Which one is better: aerospace engineering in IIT Kanpur, aerospace engineering in IIT Madras, mechanical engineering IIT BHU, or ECE in IIT BHU?

Lovish BajajStudied at IIT Kanpur

I am a student of B.Tech Aerospace at IIT Madras. IIT Madras is a top engineering institution in India, and a degree from here can easily land you an offer to complete your higher education in Ivy League colleges (if you are among the top 10% in your batch). You may even land a job offer at prestigious institutions like ISRO once you graduate. 

Here is a comparison among IIT Kanpur, IIT Madras and IIT BHU:

It is evident from the following data that in terms of placements, the Mechanical and Electronics branches of IIT BHU are better. But if you have the slightest interest in Aerospace Engineering, IIT Madras will open plenty of opportunities for you in this sector.

If research/higher studies interest you, IIT Madras is the best option due to its superior reputation. You’ll get to work at some of the best organizations like HUL, ISRO, and DRDO. Moreover, you’ll be exposed to world-class infrastructure, and some of the best professors. 

So if you have an interest in Aerospace Engineering, I would suggest you opt for IIT Madras over all the other options.

Fees and Financial Aid:

The tution fee for one year is 200000. And the registration fee will be around 34000. And mess and electricity bill will be 3500 approximately for a month. The students who belong to SC ST, low income families no need to pay tution fee. Remaining all they have to pay. There is no increase in the tution fee since many years. There are many scholarships available for students like Kotak Kenya, Foundation for excellence, NSP, SBF, FBM , relaince etc., I don't think there are campus employments for UG students . No stipend is awarded for UG students.
