Good Morning. Is Mechanical in IIITDM, Kancheepuram or Chemical engineering from NIT, Trichy better?

Hello Aspirant,

Both Mechanical Engineering in IIITDM Kancheepuram and Chemical Engineering in NIT Trichy have their own strengths and weaknesses; they are both good options (yes, I know this is a cliché). Which is the better choice for you to take will ultimately depend on your interests and future ambitions.

You should take Mechanical in IIITDM Kancheepuram if:

1. You are specifically interested in design, manufacturing, robotics or mechatronics, etc.
2. You prefer a design-based curriculum that also allows for some of your own interdisciplinary work from parallel fields such as electronics and computer science.
3. You plan on doing higher studies in mechanical/design-related fields or, you are going for a role in technology where you want to apply skill learning across multiple domains.

You should take Chemical in NIT Trichy if:

1. You are really interested in core chemical processes, research, or looking for a career in critical industries like oil, gas, pharmacy, materials.
2. You think NIT Trichy may have better connections from the alumni network, better placements or recruitment, or possibly better facilities and building resources.
3. You seek public sector jobs, core chemical R & D jobs, or want to study abroad before you apply for your first job in core chemical disciplines.

Hello,

You can choose mechanical in IIITDM if you want to explore design, mechanics, and coding. Overall, in the future, if you want a job role about innovation, you can choose this college.

Or, if you want to pass out from a prestigious NIT with powerful brand value, you can choose NIT Trichy. Also, you get a strong alumni network.

If your priority is brand, alumni network, and core engineering, you can choose NIT Trichy. Else, your priority is tech; you can choose IIITDM, which is good.
