Both IIT Indore and IIT Bhubaneswar offer good academics and placements in the field of engineering. As you must know, Metallurgy is a sub branch of Mechanical Engineering. 

IIT Bhubaneswar collaborates with foreign universities like the University of Warwick, University of Southampton, University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, University of Western Ontario, University of New York, University of North Dakota USA, and McGill University. This offers great opportunities for foreign internships and exchange programs.

Both the colleges have the same major recruiters such as COAL India, TATA Advanced Systems, TATA Steel Group, DRDO, Usha Martin, JCAP, etc. 

Some other companies that visit IIT Indore for placements are- JSW Steel, Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL), VISA Steel, and Tata Iron and Steel Company Limited (TISCO).

Here are the 2023 B.Tech Metallurgy placements at IIT Indore and IIT Bhubaneswar:

Both IIT Indore and IIT Bhubaneswar are a good choice for Metallurgy. But out of personal experience, I can assure you that IIT Bhubaneswar is a good choice for this degree. 

Qu

MSc in Chemistry at IIT Bhubaneswar is better, keeping in mind the quality of education that you’ll receive, and the reputation of the institute:

•  You can opt for a joint MSc+PhD in Chemistry if you want to pursue a more research-focused program. 

• We have regular workshops and conferences at our department, wherein MSc. and PhD scholars can actively collaborate.

• The Chemistry department of IIT Bhubaneswar is active in research in various areas like-

• Coordination Chemistry

• Molecular Recognition for the synthesis of Exotic Organic and Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Materials

• Magnetic Materials and Magnetostructural Correlation

• Catalysis for Fine Chemicals

• Design and Development of Metal Complexes towards Catalysis and Anti-Cancer Drugs

As you can see, all of this is high-impact and extremely significant.

Thus, I would recommend you opt for IIT Bhubaneswar over Hyderabad School of Chemistry, for an MSc. in Chemistry. 

I am a second year B.Tech Mechanical student at IIT Bhubaneswar. NIT Surathkal is a top ranked NIT, but joining Mechanical Engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar has its own advantages:

• One of the best things about BTech in Mechanical Engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar is that it welcomes interdisciplinary studies and extracurricular pursuits like athletics, music, dancing, fine arts, entrepreneurship, social work, projects, and internships. 

• The faculty and academic atmosphere of the Mechanical Department at IIT Bhubaneswar is very student-friendly. The department has excellent faculty members with expertise in core concepts as well as high-impact research in various specialisations.

Here is a comparison between NIT Surathkal IT and IIT Bhubaneswar Mechanical for your reference:

Out of personal experience, I can assure you that B.Tech Mechanical at IIT Bhubaneswar is a good choice in terms of academics and placements. Rest, the choice depends on your personal preference. 

 I think you should go for M.Tech in Mechanical Systems Design at IIT Bhubaneswar. IIT Gandhinagar offers an M.Tech in Mechanical Engineering, but not specifically in Machine Design. 

IIT Bhubaneswar is placed #47 in the Engineering category as per the NIRF 2023 Ranking. The School of Mechanical Sciences at IIT Bhubaneswar has fully equipped labs. It has a state-of-the-art computing lab with thirty workstations connected to an eighteen-blade server.

Here’s a comparison between IIT Bhubaneswar and IIT Gandhinagar:

(The M.Tech placements data is not available for IIT Gandhinagar)

Although IIT Gandhinagar has a slightly higher ranking than IIT Bhubaneswar, the Mechanical Sciences Department at IIT Bhubaneswar has a much better overall value. 

I would recommend you choose IIT Bhubaneswar Mechanical Systems Design over IIT Gandhinagar Mechanical for your M.Tech degree. 

I am a second year B.Tech CSE student at IIT Bhubaneswar. Here are some details on both these institutions-

• NIT Trichy is an old NIT, and it ranks among the top engineering colleges in India. The placement record at NIT Trichy is quite good. The best placements are recorded in postgraduate programs of NIT Trichy. Top companies like Facebook, Google, Cognizant, Essar, Amazon, etc. visit the NITT campus for placements.

• IIT Bhubaneswar is a 2nd gen IIT that is continuously progressing. In 2023, the institution saw a great rise in its placement figures. Almost 88% of students got placements from the campus, and companies like Accenture, Amazon, DELL, Adobe, Tata Steel, Honeywell, etc. visited for recruitments. 

Here is a comparison between NIT Trichy and IIT Bhubaneswar:

Even though NIT Trichy is an older and more reputed institution out of the two, these statistics make it clear that IIT Bhubaneswar has made tremendous progress over the years. As a result, it is quickly catching up to the older IITs and NITs in terms of academics and placements.

IIT Bhubaneswar students are offered summer internships at various educational and research institutes across India. The students are offered projects and research positions under professors of highly reputed institutes. Each student is assigned a faculty who supervises their research for the duration of the internship.

I have listed some of the top institutes where students were offered internships across various branches of electrical science engineering in 2024.

The full address of IIT Bhubaneswar is Arbbgul, Khordha, Odisha, India- Pin: 752050. They can be reached at +91 9747134560.

The IIT Bhubaneswar permanent campus in Argul is located approximately 30 km from the city of Bhubaneswar. Here are the nearest landmarks.

• 35 km from the Biju Patnaik International Airport in Bhubaneswar.
• 8 km from the Khurda Road Junction railway station.

Compared to other IITs, IIT Bhubaneswar is in a good position. Despite being a newer IIT, it has been ranked #47 in the Engineering category in India and #4 in Odhisa, by NIRF 2023. Overall, it holds the #91 rank in India.
