Ques. Should I take aerospace at IIT Madras or CS at IIT Bhubaneswar?

● Top Answer By Rajiv on 23 Jul 24

IIT Madras is one of the best options for not just Aerospace Engineering, but for most other branches.  But without any keen interest in this area, it is best to join the CS program of IIT Bhubaneswar. In the present Indian market, the IT sector is the most in-demand. In that sense, CS is the best option for good placements.  Thus, I would suggest you opt for CSE at IIT Bhubaneswar, unless you have a deep-rooted interest in Aerospace Engineering.Read more

Ques. Which one is better: aerospace engineering in IIT Kanpur, aerospace engineering in IIT Madras, mechanical engineering IIT BHU, or ECE in IIT BHU?

● Top Answer By Lovish Bajaj on 21 Jun 24

Ans. I am a student of B.Tech Aerospace at IIT Madras. IIT Madras is a top engineering institution in India, and a degree from here can easily land you an offer to complete your higher education in Ivy League colleges (if you are among the top 10% in your batch). You may even land a job offer at prestigious institutions like ISRO once you graduate.  Here is a comparison among IIT Kanpur, IIT Madras and IIT BHU: Parameters IIT Madras Aerospace IIT Kanpur Aerospace (2024, Phase 1 placements) IIT BHU Mechanical IIT BHU Electronics NIRF 2023 Engineering Ranking 1 4 15 15 Highest CTC 2023 INR 66.26 LPA - INR 91.19 LPA INR 50 LPA Average CTC - INR 20.1 LPA INR 21.95 LPA INR 29.56 LPA Median CTC 2023 INR 14.10 LPA INR 17.7 LPA INR 18.12 LPA INR 30 LPA Top Recruiters HUL, ISRO, DRDO, and other aviation companies. Eaton, GE, Airbus, Honeywell, ISRO, L&T , etc.  Maruti, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, etc. Microsoft, Google, Samsung, Bosch, etc.  It is evident from the following data that in terms of placements, the Mechanical and Electronics branches of IIT BHU are better. But if you have the slightest interest in Aerospace Engineering, IIT Madras will open plenty of opportunities for you in this sector. If research/higher studies interest you, IIT Madras is the best option due to its superior reputation. You’ll get to work at some of the best organizations like HUL, ISRO, and DRDO. Moreover, you’ll be exposed to world-class infrastructure, and some of the best professors.  So if you have an interest in Aerospace Engineering, I would suggest you opt for IIT Madras over all the other options. Read more
