Hello,

Congratulations on getting such good college and branch options. I will give you a preference list which will comprise of all these factors:

• Overall ranking
• Infrastructure
• Location/accessibility
• Branch that you are been offered(Core/interdisciplinary)
• Placement opportunities
• Industry Exposure

The preference order you should consider is:

1. Biotechnology at IIT Kanpur
2. Chemical Engineering at ISM
3. Chemical Engineering at Gandhinagar
4. Chemical Engineering at Patna
5. Chemical Engineering at Ropar
6. Biotechnology at IIT Kharagpur
7. Metallurgy at IIT BHU
8. Metallurgy at IIT Gandhinagar
9. Metallurgy at IIT Indore
10. Metallurgy at IIT Patna
11. Metallurgy at IIT Ropar
12. Chemical Engineering at IIT Tirupati
13. Chemical Engineering at IIT Jammu
14. Chemical Engineering at IIT Jodhpur
15. Ceramic at IIT BHU

As a branch considering the current scenario and employability status I would suggest going for Chemical engineering because of the following factors:

1. Less Competition
2. More opportunities
3. More PSU recruitments
4. Wide options to go interdisciplinary
5. Huge scope for PhD abroad

I would also like to add here that an engineering course should be very much taken with an interest in the field so I would suggest you to consider that factor and if you are not aware of the branches mentioned look them up on the internet more reliable will be to go through the syllabus on the respective colleges' website. An interest in the field is the key factor in deciding how your 4 years of college will be and what opportunities you will land for yourself.

Good luck, hope it helps!!
