In comparison to BITS Hyderabad’s EEE, NIT Calicut’s CSE, the latter would be considered a better option. However, it is entirely up to you whether you want to pursue IT jobs or electrical hardware jobs.
Tabulated difference between NIT Calicut CSE or BITS Hyderabad EEE are:
Categories | CSE from NIT Calicut | EEE from BITS Hyderabad |
Total course fee | 5.42 lakhs | 19.9 lakhs |
Top recruiters | ABB, Amadeus, Amdocs, Ashok Leyland, Bajaj Auto, Capgemini | Adobe, Amazon, Axis Bank , Capgemini, CGI Information Systems and Management Consultants, Cisco System |
Highest salary package | 36 LPA | 45 LPA |
Average Salary Package | 15 LPA | 12 LPA |
As I am not much familiar with BITS Hyderabad, I am not able to share details about the college. I had some of my friends graduating from NIT Calicut so I was able to share these details. Therefore, I believe CSE from NIT Calicut is the better option. You can interact with ex-students of BITS Hyderabad to get a proper overview of the college.
IIT Dharwad is a recently established institute that attracts fewer companies and has a small alumni pool. On the other hand, BITS Pilani has graduated more than 50 batches.
The best option would be to take ECE in BITS Hyderabad or ENI in BITS Pilani. The reason I am against you joining a new IIT is that these IITs are not well-known among big companies and some recruiters don’t even consider them worthy of visiting. They know that these IITs can never be at par with the old ones. So it’s better to look beyond the IIT tag and go for BITS Pilani, an excellent choice indeed!
Well, there are benefits for each branch. However, EEE offers you more chances to work in the core-field and other primary areas.
I know a few people from Bannari Amman. According to them, many students and staff from the EEE are engaged in multiple consultancy work. They also undertake AICTE, MNRE approved projects.
The lab facilities are well equipped to carry out academic works. EEE students do get placed in top MNCs and core sector companies through campus placements.
Here is a brief highlight of the recent lament for EEE at the institute.

Placement mostly depends on different aspects. When you train for interviews, you will know about it. Rest, just work hard enough and try not to get any backlogs as many companies demand students with zero to no backlogs.
Although IIT Jammu is fairly new, it offers wonderful opportunities in terms of internships, project-based work, full-time jobs, and placements.

Therefore, IIT Jammu is a great place for a program in EE.
IEM Kolkata and NIT Sikkim are some of the most reputed engineering colleges in India. However, it is difficult to choose between the two as the branches you have mentioned are different. To make a more precise decision, first, decide which branch you want to opt for.
Here is a brief overview of the courses.

In the end, it all comes down to the branch you have an interest in. Choose wisely between these two options.
If the arrangement for the fee which is charged by MIT would not be a problem for you then It is suggested that you opt for admission in Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering at MIT Manipal. Having some friends studying there I can say that there are many things that make MIT Manipal stand out.
Some of the good things about MIT Manipal which makes it a better option include the following:
Categories | EI at MIT Manipal |
Course Fee | 13.10 lakhs |
Placement Percentage | 80% |
Highest CTC | 15 LPA |
Average CTC | 7.5 LPA |
Recruiting Companies | Cisco, ICICI Bank, Mu Sigma, Deloitte, etc. |
Summer internships are available at companies like Western Digital and Reliance for students in their fifth or sixth semester. If you get an internship through campus recruitment, you may be able to convert it to PPO if you do well during the tenure of your internship.
No official data has been released for branch-wise placements at Sikkim Manipal Institute of Technology. This year the highest CTC was recorded at INR 28.75 LPA while the average CTC was recorded at INR 5.07 LPA .

I asked a friend who is currently pursuing a Btech in EEE from Sikkim Manipal Institute of Technology. Here is what I concluded from his experience
Hope this helps you!
DTU and IIT Dharwad both give head-on competition to each other in all fields. DTU is ranked 36th by NIRF and 2nd by Times Engineering Survey. IIT Dharwad was recently established, and it's making all efforts to be ranked among the best. Placement opportunities are impressive in both colleges. More than 90% of the students are placed every year.
Admission:
Students seeking admission to both the colleges need to appear for the JEE mains exam. For IIT Dharwad students also need to get a good score in the JEE advanced.
Total ECE seat intake at DTU is 270 and 50 at IIT Dharwad.
The required cutoff for the two institutes is as follows.

IIT Dharwad(EE) |

DTU(EEE) |

Course Fees:
The course fee structure of both colleges is pretty much higher. Day scholars have to pay a separate fee structure as they do not avail of the hostel and mess facilities.
College |

INR 2.25 lakhs |
Faculty:
Both the colleges have excellent faculty in the EE and EEE department. The maximum of the faculties is Ph.D. holders in their specified fields.
Well developed laboratories are set up for the students interested in Research and Development.
Facilities:
IIT Dharwad is spread across 470 acres and includes well-developed laboratories for the EE students. Digital Library, well-ventilated hostels, 24*7 medical care.
DTU Delhi is spread in a massive area that includes facilities like a three-storeyed library building, EDUSAT studio, sports center, and 24*7 medical facilities.
Placement:
DTU has an exemplary placement record in all its branches. For the EEE branch, the highest package offered was INR 20.33 lakhs. A total of 61 students were placed. 76 offers were given to students from different companies.
IIT Dharwad saw its first placement in the year 2020. Internships with higher packages were offered to the students of the 3 branches. Top recruiters were Microsoft, Google, Doubtnut, Vizag steel plant, and a lot more.
The scholarship is being offered under various categories that include female candidates, academic excellence, and economically backward students. Both the colleges are good which is evident from its national rankings. To choose EE or EEE solely depends on the rank secured by the students in the entrance examination.
The preference should be firstly based on the branch and not on the colleges. Opt for the college where you get the branch of your choice. It's not college that matters but rather it's the branch. If you get the branch of your choice, you will be more likely to study that well and attain a successful future.
Categories | CSE at GEC Goa | EEE at NIT Goa |
Course Fee | 2.9 lakh | 5.38 lakh |
Highest CTC | 24 LPA | 18-19 LPA |
Average CTC | 12 LPA | 11 LPA |
Recruiting Companies | Accenture, Wipro, TCS, HP, etc. | Infosys, Adobe, Capgemini, L&T, etc. |
If you think that you will take EEE in NIT Goa and then change the branch to CSE, then it's nearly impossible. There are high cut offs for changing the branch and it happens after following a certain set of rules that is not possible. So choose wisely as your career depends on it.
The better choice is undoubtedly EEE at BITS Goa than ECE at NIT Jalandhar.
NIT Jalandhar is still a developing institute whereas BITS Goa is a well-established institute that has got reputation all over the world. Most of the students have cracked competitive exams like GMAT, GRE, and UPSC, etc with a good rank.
You will interact with people who have appreciable knowledge and you will have healthy competition as BITS Goa don't have caste reservations.
Finally, if you can afford to join BITS then do it if not take a loan and don't worry about returns. You will get them in a year or maybe 2 years. Ultimately the choice is yours.
