How good is IIT Hyderabad? I am getting Electrical Engineering at IITH? How is the campus life?
IIT Hyderabad is a new IIT that has been growing at a fast pace and is expected to reach the level of older IITs in no time. Its EE Department is excellent with a good updated curriculum. Unlike older IITs, the courses covered are industry relevant and that’s what sets it apart from the EE department of other IITs.
Its syllabus includes various Electronics as well as Electrical courses. Additionally, it contains Machine Learning, sound processing using Python and R, Internet of Things(IoT), and home automation also.
IIT Hyderabad Campus
The courses are much more advanced in comparison to courses offered in the EE Department of other IITs that just revolve around generators, motors, and outdated heavy machines. The new IITs may lack in other aspects but their curriculum is modern and useful.
Infrastructure-wise, IIT Hyderabad is a bit lacking considering the fact that it's still in the developing phase. The hostels of the new campus are great with radiant cooling systems. However, the campus lacks greenery and much-needed sports facilities.
Which is better in placements: mechanical engineering dual degree at IIT Kharagpur or electrical engineering at IIT Roorkee?
There's not much of a difference in terms of placements or campus. Go for your interest.
EE comprises power transfer and machines, whereas Mechanical deals with heavy tools and machinery work.
You should choose IIT Kharagpur Mechanical Engineering dual degree due to following reasons:-
- The Dual degree program is a 5 years program with a combination of B.tech and M.Tech or MBA.
- The dual degree program offers you more opportunities if you want to pursue your MBA after Graduation.
- IIT Kharagpur is ranked 6th in NIRF ranking while IIT Roorkee is ranked 5th.
- IIT KGP has great infrastructure with all facilities like WIFI, Labs, and Library.

What is better EE at IIT Kanpur or CSE at IIT Roorkee?
Both EE at IIT Kanpur and CSE at IIT Roorkee are well-recognized academic institutions in India. However, the choice between EE at IIT Kanpur and CSE at IIT Roorkee completely depends on your career goals and preferences.
- IIT Roorkee is a better choice as it is one of the oldest institutions and holds 5th rank by NIRF ranking in 2023.
- The total course fee for 4 years of BTech CSE is INR 893400.
- The placement opportunity offered by IIT Roorkee is very positive.
- The highest package offered to students is INR 2.03 CPA by the company Databricks.
- Top companies recruiting are American Express, Google, Microsoft, Reliance Industries and more.
Which is better IIT Guwahati CSE or IIT Delhi EE or IIT KGP CSE 5yrs?
In my opinion, an IIT KGP CSE dual degree is a better option than IIT Guwahati CSE. Here’s why
- You get an additional degree in just one or two years
- You don’t have to sit for another entrance exam like GATE
- Companies that open profiles for BTech also open the same profiles for Dual Degree students.
IIT Guwahati is also a good option for CSE. However, one should opt for IIT Delhi EE only if
You are confident that one will be able to change branch within a year. This is because you will end up studying CS courses with external coaching.
To secure a job, the best options are CSE or MBA. For MBA, your branch does not really matter, only your institute does.
My JEE rank is 600. Should I go for electrical at IIT Kanpur or CS at IIT Roorkee?
As per the latest stats, you will not be able to get admission in CSE at IIT Roorkee at this rank if you are from the general category. I think that you should choose EE at IIT Kanpur over CSE at IIT Roorkee because of the following reasons:-
- Taking EE in Kanpur is more advantageous than CSE in Roorkee due to higher placement percentages and more flexible academics, which helps to let you develop yourself more.
- IIT Kanpur has a better NIRF ranking of 4th compared to IIT Roorkee 5th.
- As of 2023, the average salary at IIT Kanpur EE branch is 26.27 LPA, while the average salary for IIT Roorkee's CSE branch is 27 LPA, so there is not much difference.
- More than 250 companies like Microsoft, Fujitsu, Samsung, Reliance, Goldman Sachs, and McKinsey visited IIT Kanpur campus in 2023.
- Electrical engineering provides you with opportunities in both the public and private sectors.
- The best aspect is that if you later discover you have no interest in EE, you can always move to Software Engineering.
Which is better for electrical engineering: MNIT Jaipur or MNNIT Allahabad?
I researched on both the colleges, and here is my answer to your query-
MNNIT Allahabad is far better then MNIT Jaipur for Electrical Engineering. MNNIT has better placements and academics for Electrical branch.
MNIT is situated in the middle of the city, so you can easily join coaching classes for GATE, ESE, and other competitive exams. But then, many students from MNNIT clear GATE, IES, Civil Services, etc. because of its academic friendly environment.
Both the colleges perform equally well in rankings.
I would recommend you join MNNIT Allahabad for your Electrical degree.
