Is chemical engineering worthy branch from IITs and nits
Ans: Chemical Engineering at premier Institutes of National Importance marries rigorous fundamentals in thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, reaction engineering, process control, and mass transfer with cutting-edge interdisciplinary domains such as biochemical engineering, energy sustainability, and nanomaterials. Leading IITs—Bombay, Delhi, Madras, Kanpur, and Kharagpur—boast world-class research laboratories (e.g., IIT Bombay’s Polymer, Reaction Engineering, and SoFT labs; IIT Kanpur’s nano-technology and complex fluids facilities; IIT Madras’s pilot-plant and advanced materials centres), small cohort sizes, and faculty who publish extensively in high-impact journals. Placement consistency across IIT Chemical branches typically exceeds 80–90% over the past three years, with average packages ranging from ?15–19 LPA at IIT Madras and IIT Hyderabad, and 70–80% core-sector hiring complemented by roles in consulting and analytics. NITs such as Trichy and Warangal maintain comparable on-campus placement rates of 90–92% for Chemical Engineering, supported by robust industry linkages with Reliance, IOCL, and Larsen & Toubro. Academic rigour fosters strong analytical skills but entails heavy workloads and fewer core-chemical recruiters compared to mechanical or electrical disciplines, limiting options for some students. Emerging programmes emphasize machine learning-driven process optimization and green chemistry, yet departmental expansion can strain lab resources and mentorship availability. Infrastructure may vary across NITs, with newer campuses offering fewer pilot-scale units. Overall, Chemical Engineering from IITs and top NITs equips graduates for diverse roles—from petroleum refining, pharmaceuticals, and specialty chemicals to environmental engineering and data-driven process analytics—while demanding sustained commitment to complex mathematical modelling and experimental research.

Recommendation: Graduates seeking research-intensive or high-impact process design careers should prioritise IIT Bombay or IIT Kanpur for their advanced laboratories and mentorship, followed by NIT Trichy or NIT Warangal for balanced academia-industry exposure. Opt for IIT Madras if global placements and pilot-plant experience are decisive; choose IIT Delhi for strong consultancy and analytics pathways.

Sir, My son's KEAM rank is 2929. As per last year cut off, he is likely to get CSE at Model Engineering Collage, Kochi. Alternatively, he already got admission for CSE Core at VIT Vellore campus. He studied his 11&12 at Mumbai. Can you help me in deciding which one to opt between MEC CSE or Vit Vellore CSE ?
Ans: Both Model Engineering College Kochi’s CSE and VIT Vellore’s CSE programmes are accredited and backed by strong industry ties yet differ in scale and outcomes. MEC Kochi, an NBA-accredited government institute, records branch-wise CSE placement consistency of around 80–84% over the past three years with 106 CSE offers in 2023, average CSE package of ?6.6 LPA, and recruiters like Cognizant, Deloitte, EY, and Zoho. VIT Vellore, a NAAC A++–accredited private deemed university, achieves 80–90% overall placements, 867 recruiters and 7,526 placed students in 2024, a rising average package of ?9.9 LPA for CSE, and top recruiters including Microsoft, Amazon, PayPal, Cisco, and Bank of America. Both feature modern labs, experienced faculty, active placement cells, and robust industry partnerships.

recommendation Given VIT’s higher placement consistency, stronger average packages, and broader recruiter network, recommendation is to opt for VIT Vellore CSE; choose MEC Kochi CSE if you prefer a government institute’s affordability and smaller class size. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
