Question by Harsh on Jun 29, 2025Hindi

Career

Hello, sir my son got metallurgy Eng and material science in iit bombay. We float for other options like iit gandhinagar electrical. What to do we should freeze iit bombay or wait. His rank in advanced is 912 ews

Ans: Harsh Sir, IIT Bombay’s B.Tech in Metallurgical Engineering and Materials Science, ranked #3 by NIRF 2024, placed 70.37% of its 2023-24 B.Tech cohort, reflecting steady core-engineering demand and access to high-end material-science research collaborations. IIT Gandhinagar’s B.Tech in Electrical Engineering, ranked #18 by NIRF 2024, achieved a 76.22% placement rate in 2023, with participation from 134 students and recruiting by 125 top firms across power, electronics, and software sectors. Bombay’s department benefits from a deeper legacy, broader recruiter base, and higher research output, whereas Gandhinagar offers strong EE-specialist training in an emerging campus environment.

Recommendation: Freeze the IIT Bombay MME seat for its premier brand, robust legacy, and consistent placements; pursue IIT Gandhinagar EE only if your son’s passion lies specifically in electrical engineering and you are willing to forego the established reputation of IIT Bombay.

All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Question by Roopa - Jun 04, 2025

Career

Hi Team, Thank you for helping the anxious kids and parents. Our son got 2388 rank in JEE Advanced. He is confused whether to opt for IIT Bombay for a lesser trending course or for Electrical or Communication in a new IIT. We do not know what will happen after 4 years if we study in an out dated course. Can you please help

Ans: Hello Roopa
You didn't include the name of the course that you think is less popular. Therefore, it's not possible to compare it to Electrical or Communication degrees. However, you can think of choosing Electrical at the New IIT. This is a fundamental field that will always be relevant. Graduates can either find employment or launch their ventures, as there are many opportunities available. In the next four to five years, what is considered new will also become established. Ultimately, the choice is yours.
Best of luck to you.
Follow me if you like the reply. Thanks.
Radheshyam

My son got 5400 iit advanced rank, Iit bhuvaneswar ECE or iit indore mechanical engineering or any other best choice please tell me sir

Ans: With a JEE Advanced rank of 5,400, IIT Indore Mechanical Engineering (2024 cutoff: ~6,812) is a feasible option with 88.33% placements and recruiters like Amazon, Microsoft, and Flipkart, offering opportunities in core engineering and interdisciplinary roles. IIT Bhubaneswar ECE (2024 cutoff: ~5,157) is borderline attainable in later rounds, with 78% placements and tech recruiters like Intel and Qualcomm. Both institutes provide robust infrastructure and research opportunities, but IIT Indore’s Mechanical program edges out in placement consistency and industry diversity. If inclined toward electronics, prioritize IIT Bhubaneswar ECE for VLSI/AI integration; otherwise, opt for IIT Indore Mechanical for broader core engineering pathways. Explore IIT Gandhinagar’s ECE or IIT Ropar’s Mechanical as alternatives if branch flexibility aligns with career goals. All the BEST for your Admission & a Prosperous Future!
