Balaji Question by Balaji on Jun 26, 2025Hindi
Career

My son is getting electrical engineering in IIT TIRUPATHI He will be getting biomedical engg in IIT HYDERABAD in next rounds Which one would be a better choice?

Ans: Balaji Sir, Electrical Engineering at IIT Tirupati offers a strong curriculum with modern labs and a 73–95% placement rate, average packages around ?16–21 LPA, and top recruiters like Amazon, Texas Instruments, and Deloitte. The program emphasizes core electrical systems, electronics, control, and power engineering, providing broad career opportunities in core engineering, IT, consulting, and higher studies. IIT Hyderabad’s Biomedical Engineering is a unique, interdisciplinary program focused on healthcare technology, medical devices, AI in medicine, and bio-imaging, designed in consultation with the healthcare industry. However, placements for BTech Biomedical Engineering at IIT Hyderabad are currently limited, with only 13% placed in 2024, as most graduates either pursue higher studies or research roles. IIT Hyderabad’s overall placement record is excellent, but core biomedical industry jobs are fewer compared to electrical and IT sectors. IIT Hyderabad has a higher NIRF ranking and stronger research output, but IIT Tirupati’s Electrical Engineering offers more established placement outcomes, broader industry roles, and flexibility to pivot into IT, analytics, or core engineering, which is advantageous if career certainty is a priority.

recommendation: Prefer Electrical Engineering at IIT Tirupati for its robust placements, versatile career options, and established industry connections. Choose Biomedical Engineering at IIT Hyderabad only if your son is passionate about healthcare technology, research, or higher studies, and is comfortable with a niche and evolving job market. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
