Hello Aspirant,

If placements and prospects are your aim, then:

  1. NIT Andhra Pradesh EEE: This will lead to good core and IT related opportunities as well as opportunities as an engineer in government exams and various core companies and coding roles.
  2. NIT Raipur Chemical: Chemical has few core jobs and most students switch to IT. This is somewhat less flexible than EEE.
  3. IIIT Kancheepuram Mechanical (Dual Degree): Although a dual degree will provide more research exposure, mechanical engineering has fewer core jobs. Placements are improving but still evolving.

Option Institute Reputation Branch Scope Career Opportunities Unique Factors
NIT Andhra Pradesh (EEE) Growing Broad: covers electronics + power systems PSU jobs, Core EEE roles, Power sector Location might be less industrialized
NIT Raipur (Chemical) Moderate Niche but promising Process industries, sustainability, R&D Chemical engineers are in demand in energy and materials
IIIT Kanchipuram (Mechanical Dual Degree) Strong in tech Solid core + added research Manufacturing, Robotics, Mechatronics, PhD pathways Dual degree gives M.Tech edge, longer course duration

Hello Seema

All the 3 colleges that you mentioned (NIT Andhra Pradesh, NIT Raipur and IIIT Kanchipuram) are very reputed institutes in themselves.

The main thing you should consider is your interest. If you are interested in Electrical field, then go for NIT Andhra Pradesh. If in chemical, then go for NIT Raipur. And if in mechanical, then go for IIT Kanchipuram. The choice is yours.

Thank You!!!

If you want more job opportunities and a safer career option, then NIT Andhra Pradesh with Electronics and Electrical Engineering is the better choice. This branch has good demand in both core and software companies.

NIT Raipur Chemical Engineering is also a good option but has fewer job chances directly after BTech unless you want to go for higher studies or work in oil, pharma or process industries.

IIIT Kancheepuram Mechanical Dual Degree is a five-year course, and mechanical jobs are less compared to EEE. Also, placements at IIITs are mainly better for computer-related branches, not mechanical.

So, the best option for most students would be NIT Andhra Pradesh (Electronics and Electrical).

Between NIT Andhra EEE, NIT Raipur Chemical, and IIIT Kanchipuram Mechanical (dual), NIT Andhra EEE is a better choice for core placements and future flexibility, especially if you’re inclined towards electrical or electronics-based roles or wish to explore software jobs. NIT Raipur Chemical is decent but has limited core opportunities unless you’re passionate about chemical engineering. IIIT Kanchipuram’s dual degree in mechanical can be good if you’re targeting research or higher studies, but placement-wise, it’s relatively weaker. Overall, NIT Andhra Pradesh offers a more balanced and industry-relevant option.
