Some of my friends studied at MNNIT, so I might be able to answer your question. It is suggested that you choose Mechanical at MNNIT Allahabad rather than Civil at NIT Trichy.
Your branch of choice is more important than your college preference. In terms of opportunities, Mechanical Engineering has a slight advantage over Civil Engineering
Mechanical at MNNIT Allahabad has a consistent placement record. Mechanical students receive more job offers than Civil Engineering graduates. PSUs often choose Mechanical Engineering graduates.
Categories | Civil at NIT Trichy | Mechanical at MNNIT Allahabad |
Course Fee | 5.65 lakh | 6.55 lakh |
Highest CTC | 22 LPA | 18-20 LPA |
Average CTC | 9 LPA | 8-10 LPA |
Recruiting Companies | IOCL, BHEL, Honeywell, Aricent, etc. | Aditya Birla, Info Edge, Phillips, Reliance, etc. |
Finally, everything depends on your interest and choice. So think wisely and then make any decision, because this will be the building blocks of your career.
Both IGDTUW Delhi and PEC Chandigarh are reputed colleges and are equally good but both these courses are very different from each other.
If you are interested in higher studies and want to do M.Tech or Ph.D., then only opt for PEC civil. The pressure for studies would be less. You also have no restrictions in doing extracurricular activities. Here you can focus on other things besides studies, like on your hobbies or learning and developing a new skill or a new language which can be helpful in your career.
Here’s a brief overview of the courses mentioned in the question.

Hope this answer clears some of your doubts.
Both institutes will offer you placements in the field of software and very few core company opportunities.
The architecture course in KLU is good and maintains discipline. In terms of campus and infrastructure, KLU has a superior view. Vignan University, on the other hand, has an average campus.
You must choose KLU as it is updated with the latest education policies and equipment. In the placement drive held in KLU in 2021, the results have been near perfect when it came to placing the students in companies and firms that are reputed, in turn, resulted in 100% placement.
A total of 65 students got placed and the highest package offered to the students was INR 7 LPA. The average package offered was 3.5 LPA. More than 60 companies visited the campus. TCS offered 267 jobs and Cognizant offered 121 jobs.
One of my close friends graduated from BVM and my sister was in LD. Based on their reviews BVM is a way better option for mechanical engineers compared to LD Engineering College. The reason behind this is, it is one of the oldest colleges in Gujarat. Some more significant points which will make you drift towards BVM includes:
Here are some details about the two colleges which might help you to make a precise decision:
Particulars | Mechanical at BVM | Mechanical at LD Engineering College |
Fees (Total) | 5.24 lakh | 6,000 |
Highest Package Offered | 12 LPA | 8 LPA |
Average Package Offered | 3.1 LPA | 4.5 LPA |
Top Recruiters | Infosys, Essar, TCS, L&T, etc. | Harvey Associates, MG motors, Welspun, Reliance, etc. |
Both the colleges are great, but It is suggested you go for BVM among the two. Because a good environment is necessary to concentrate on studies.
CUSAT IT has better placement record than Mechanical Engineering. Major software companies such as TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Oracle, Cognizant, Tata Project, etc. visit the campus placement each year. According to the highlights of CUSAT placements, students receive an average CTC of around INR 4.3 LPA. While the highest CTC offered is around INR 40 LPA.
IIT Bhubaneswar is a new IIT and was established in the year 2008. On the other hand, IIT Dhanbad is an old IIT. Being an old IIT, the academic curriculum and academic flexibility are more functional at IIT Dhanbad than any other new IIT.
Many of my friends have passed out from IIT Dhanbad who were highly satisfied with their placement considering their JEE advance ranks. In the placement drive 2020, the highest package offered to the mechanical branch at IIT Dhanbad was INR 17 lakhs per annum.
Changing your branch is comparatively easier at IIT Dhanbad. So, even if you are compromising on your branch of choice, you can get it altered to your choice once you join in.
To conclude, I would suggest you go for IIT Dhanbad.
Opt for any of these branches only if you are really interested in either of these branches or if you have plans of pursuing post-graduation in either of the subjects.
The reason behind this lies in whether you will be treating your technical graduation degree just as a simple graduation degree or are you really looking for it. If it is just going to be a simple graduation degree just like in campus placements, government job preparations, MBA entrance preparations, GRE preparations, etc., then it is not worth going for, because there is too much work in these branches.
If this is the case, choose any of the branches from CSE, IT, EI, and Civil Engineering. It will help you in saving a lot of time and hence, prepare well for entrances. Also, you can fully enjoy your college life.
I am a third-year student at IIT Dhanbad. I’ll suggest you go for Mechanical at IIT Dhanbad.
Although the Placements in 2024 are still ongoing, the average package of the 2023 mechanical branch stands at INR 14.74 LPA, while the placement percentage is 83.52%. Some of the top companies that have given placements this year at IIT Dhanbad are- Accenture, Ericsson, Flipkart, Siemens, and Wiley Edge.

As you can see from the above table, IIT Dhanbad holds a much higher rank than the other two IITs. Its placement statistics are also quite good.
I’d suggest you take admission into an older college like IIT Dhanbad as it offers stronger industry connections. Additionally, you’ll experience a stronger and more vibrant alumni network.
Thus, I would recommend IIT Dhanbad Mechanical over IIT Mandi Mechanical and IIT Tirupati Electrical.
Vasavi College of Engineering has been bestowed with an experienced faculty and an extremely good placement report over time.
Categories | Mechanical Engineering at Vasavi College of Engineering |
Course Fee | 5.20 lakhs |
Placement Percentage | 65-70% |
Highest CTC | 16 LPA |
Average CTC | 8-10 LPA |
Recruiting Companies | KIA Motors, Tech Mahindra, L&T, Infosys, etc. |
Make an informed decision while choosing between the two. Hope this helps in answering your query.
