There are different colleges teaching this course such as

IIT Madras

VIT Vellore

SRM, Chennai

PSG College Coimbatore etc.

Hope it helps !! Good luck !!

Mechanical engineers have tremendous opportunities for growth and progress both in India and overseas. Mechanical engineers with advanced degrees can work in a variety of industries, including aircraft, automobiles, chemical manufacturing facilities, oil exploration, railway coach manufacture, and research and development. A mechanical engineer's skill is necessary in robotics, biomedical, nanotechnology, AI, energy conservation, and other fields due to the huge flood of technology.

Manufacturing, design, and thermal are three if the most common sub disciplines of mechanical engineering. In the electric car sector, where the battery management system is crucial, an engineer with a thermal engineering background has a strong chance if succeeding.

Dear Student,

To judge which branch is tougher, you must know your interest in one branch. Because it totally depends on your interest, knowledge and research area.

Mechanical engineering is a sub-branch of engineering which consists of application of engineering principles for the design, production and maintenance of various mechanical systems. This branch includes the study of construction and treatment of heat and mechanical power for manufacturing the tools and machines.

Hi,

Following are some statistics about both colleges:

IIT Kharagpur- Ocean Engineering:

• Placement percentage: around 100%
• Highest package : 24.5 Lakh
• Average package: 11.5 Lakh
• NIRF Ranking: 3

IIT Dharwad- Mechanical Engineering:

• Placement percentage: 60-70%
• Highest package: 40 Lakh
• Average package: 9 Lakh
• NIRF Ranking: 23

When we look at placement statistics of both Institute, IIT Kharagpur seems better choice than IIT Dharwad. IIT Kharagpur has way higher rankings both in NIRF or Global rankings when it compared to IIT Dharwad. IIT Kharagpur is also one of the most prestigious Institution of India.

Hello Laxman,

Hope you are doing good.

Good to know that you are pursuing Mechanical engineering. And most interesting is you're also interested in loco pilot or aeronautical engineering. Let me tell of wanna do one of the above you need some eligibility criteria:

Candidates aspiring to become a Loco Pilot must have passed the 10+2/equivalent examination from a well recognized board. Additionally, the candidate must have completed any of these courses:

1. ITI course from Institute recognised by NCVT or SCVT
2. Diploma in Engineering in any streams from an AICTE recognised institute
3. ACT apprenticeship course

Above mentioned are the educational qualification needed. And other eligibility criteria are:

• Qualifying the entrance examination conducted by RRB for the assistant Loco Pilot post
• Medical fitness after the CBAT (Computer-Based Aptitude Test)

FOR AERONAUTICAL ENGINEERING:

Applicant must passed 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics or equivalent with AICTE approved University and 3 years engineering diploma in any stream or any higher qualification in science with Physics and Mathematics at the time of admission in Institutes.

ENTRANCE EXAM FOR THE SAME ARE:

*JEE (Joint Entrance Exam) conducted by the IIT's.

*All India Engineering/ Architecture Entrance Examination(AIEEE)

*Delhi University Combined Entrance Examination(CEE)

*Hindustan University Entrance Test(HITSEE)

*The Indian Institute of Aeronautics Entrance Exam(IIA)EE

and many more.

And for a police service you should be knowing UPSC and other government exams are held.

Hopefully this will guide you.

Best wishes for future.
