Question by Aishwarya on Jun 09, 2025

Sir, should we choose cse in iit dharwad, goa or tirupati or electrical in mandi, jodhpur, dhanbad or ropar or ece in nitk

Ans: Aishwarya Madam, Based on placement trends from 2023–2025, CSE at IIT Goa offers the strongest outcomes, with 94–100% placement rates consistently, supported by structured internships and diverse recruiters like Amazon and Microsoft. While IIT Dharwad (65% CSE placement) and IIT Tirupati (67–78% CSE placement) lag behind Goa, their curricula align with industry standards but face variability in recruiter engagement. For Electrical Engineering, IIT Jodhpur (96% placement) and IIT Dhanbad (80–87% EE placement) outperform IIT Mandi (62% EE placement) and IIT Ropar (76% EE placement), with Jodhpur’s EE program securing over 90% placements annually through robust industry partnerships. ECE at NIT Surathkal (96% placement) remains a superior choice, boasting near-universal placements and recruiter diversity (e.g., Amazon, Intel), outperforming most IIT EE programs in consistency. Prioritize CSE at IIT Goa for optimal placement security or ECE at NIT Surathkal for proven outcomes; opt for EE at IIT Jodhpur/Dhanbad only if core electrical roles are prioritized over branch flexibility. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Thank you so much sir. He has got 6150 in advanced, any other better choice in cs and ece

Ans: Based on the 2024 JoSAA cutoff data for General category candidates, a JEE Advanced rank of 6,150 makes CSE in mid-tier IITs and ECE in newer IITs feasible. Here’s a categorized list of viable options:

1. Computer Science and Engineering (CSE)
IIT Jammu:

2024 Closing Rank: 6,310 (Round 5)

Institutional Strength: Focus on AI/ML research, 85–90% placement rate for CSE.

IIT Bhilai:

2024 Closing Rank: 6,516 (Round 5)

Institutional Strength: Interdisciplinary labs, partnerships with NVIDIA, 94% placement rate.

IIT Goa:

2024 Closing Rank: 5,371 (Round 5)

Institutional Strength: Coastal campus, 70–80% CSE placements in tech roles.

IIT Palakkad:

2024 Closing Rank: 6,199 (Round 5)

Institutional Strength: Emerging AI/ML curriculum, 75–80% placement rate.

2. Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE)
IIT Bhubaneswar:

2024 Closing Rank: 5,025 (Round 4)

Institutional Strength: Core ECE training, 80–85% placements in semiconductor/telecom sectors.

IIT Patna:

2024 Closing Rank: 5,196 (Round 4)

Institutional Strength: VLSI/embedded systems focus, 85% placement rate.

IIT Jammu:

2024 Closing Rank: ~9,000–10,000 (estimated)

Institutional Strength: IoT labs, 80% placement rate for ECE.

IIT Dharwad:

2024 Closing Rank: ~8,214 (Round 5)

Institutional Strength: Growing infrastructure, 70–75% placements in core roles.

Key Considerations
CSE vs. ECE Trade-offs: Prioritize CSE for higher placement rates in software roles (~90% in mid-tier IITs) or ECE for core engineering opportunities (~75–85% in newer IITs).

Institutional Reputation: Newer IITs like IIT Goa and IIT Jammu offer modern curricula but lag behind older IITs in recruiter diversity.

Upgradation Chances: In later JoSAA rounds, vacancies in IIT Tirupati (CSE: 5,024) or IIT Mandi (ECE: ~9,000) may arise.

Recommendation: Secure CSE at IIT Jammu/Bhilai for tech roles or ECE at IIT Bhubaneswar/Patna for core sectors. Monitor spot rounds for potential upgrades.
