Ans: Mayank, Birla Institute of Technology, Mesra’s Electrical and Electronics Engineering department is staffed by PhD-qualified faculty working on power systems, electronics, and control, supported by laboratories for electrical machines, power electronics, and drive systems, and records a 69% placement rate with an average package of ?11.5 LPA. Its Electronics and Communication Engineering arm offers VLSI and signal processing labs, with a 60% placement rate and an average package of ?16 LPA. Tier-III NITs such as NIT Jamshedpur boast 100% ECE placements, NBA accreditation, long-standing alumni networks, and consistently >90% placement rates across core branches. IIITs at Kalyani, Ranchi, and Bhagalpur follow a public-private model with research-active faculty, modern computing and AI labs, and centralized placement cells, achieving CSE placement rates of 89.3%, 72.1%, and 98.6%, respectively. Robust CSE roles are available across these institutes through industry-aligned curricula, mandatory internships, and active T&P cells.

Considering your interest in CSE and the higher placement consistency of Tier-III NIT ECE (100% at Jamshedpur) and IIIT Bhagalpur CSE (98.6% placements), recommendation is to pursue ECE at NIT Jamshedpur or CSE at IIIT Bhagalpur over BIT Mesra EEE, ensuring stronger core?engineering roles and industry integration.
