Student At IIT Patna

All the three institutions mentioned by you are well-reputed for their engineering courses. Here is a comparison among the three based on different criteria:

Parameters	IIT Mandi	IIT Patna	NIT Warangal
Year of Establishment	2009	2008	1959
NIRF 2023 Engineering Ranking	33	41	21
Highest Package	INR 60 LPA	INR 82.05 LPA	INR 88 LPA
Average Package	INR 25.23 LPA	INR 23.90 LPA	INR 15 LPA
Top Recruiters	Deloitte, Denso, Bharat Electronics Limited, SAP Labs, Indeed, etc.	Google, Microsoft, Goldman Sachs, Vedanta, Reliance, Tata Steel and Adobe, etc.	Amazon, Microsoft, L&T, etc.
Clubs and Societies	The Robotronics Club, Space Technology and Astronomy Cell, The Programming Club (Kamand Prompt), SAIC, Google Developer Student Clubs (GDSC)	NJACK (Computer Science Club), Sparkonics (Electrical Engineering Club), SCME (Mechanical Engineering Society), Robotics Club, IITP Motorsports, ACE (Civil Engineering Society)	Civil Engineering Association (CEA), Computer Science and Engineering Association (CSEA), Electronics and Communication Engineering Association, Electrical Engineering Association (EEA), Mathematics Association

IIT Warangal is a much older institution, however, IIT Patna offers some very interesting clubs and societies in various areas. Other than NJAC, it offers technical societies like AI-NLP-ML Group, DSC and OWASP. This makes for a healthy coding environment.

Other than that, its highest and average placement packages are also better than the other two institutions. IIT Patna carries the prestigious ‘IIT’ tag which is beneficial when applying for higher studies abroad. Moreover, IIT Mandi has a beautiful but remote location in the mountains. Whereas, Patna city offers better connectivity.

Because of all these reasons, IIT Patna is a better choice than IIT Mandi and NIT Warangal.

Lives in Patna

Rather than giving you a specific answer, I will be commenting on individual parameters. This is because most of the aforementioned institutes are similar in terms of education, placements, and opportunities. So it’s best to consider their uniqueness and align them with your preferences

College and campus life: IIT Mandi>>Nit Warangal>>IIT Patna
Placements: IIT Mandi>>Nit Warangal >>IIT Patna
Alumni: Nit Warangal>>IIT Patna>>IIT Mandi
Faculty: Nit Warangal >>IIT Mandi~IIT Patna

One thing I love about IIT Mandi is its young faculties that are passionate about research and come down to the level of students during interactions. So choose the one that matches your core interests!

B.Tech Mechanical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology, Patna (2018)

One of my friends is a B.Tech graduate and has experience from both IIT and NIT. After passing JEE Main on his first try, he was not prepared to take the JEE Advanced. It was so because he doesn't want to be a dropper and he chose NIT Bhopal.

Categories	NIT Warangal	IIT Mandi	IIT Patna
Course Fee	5 lakhs	8.33-10.39 lakhs	6.98 lakhs
Placement Percentage	80%	85-90%	90-100%
Highest CTC	25 LPA	35 LPA	31 LPA
Average CTC	8-10 LPA	10.9 LPA	16 LPA
Recruiting Companies	Goldman Sachs, Deloitte, Intel, HP, Oyo Rooms, Oracle, Reliance, Samsung and ITC Limited	Microsoft, Goldman Sachs, Code Nation, L&T, Amazon, Oyo, etc.	Deloitte, DRDO, Oracle, HCL, HP, ITC, IBM, etc.

There is no distinction between the standard of teaching at NIT and IIT, but there are still exceptions. Although they have Ph.D. faculty, you will be taught by M.Tech faculty. Mass bunks happen all time. All of this fuelled my friend’s urge to join IIT.

From January, he began to study again and passed the JEE Main exam, as well as qualify for the JEE Advanced exam.
He had the option of choosing from all of the latest IITs in CSE, but he chose IIT Patna Mechanical Engineering because it was closer to his hometown.
He also realized that coding was not his future.

Now, on the first day of orientation, IIT will greet you in such a way that you will make a strong impression. You can find seniors to be incredibly helpful. Faculty are really nice, and they will often inquire about ragging in your first year because it is absolutely forbidden, and just for the record, the IIT Patna campus is a ragging-free campus. He adored the school, campus, teachers, and services. Since coming to IIT from NIT, he has learned a lot.

Always choose any IIT you want over NIT. However, the choice is solely based on every individual’s professional experience and judgment. You may disagree with it, so always consider researching more.
