Hi, if you are not sure of metallurgy and material science that this is what you want to do for the rest of your life than it is advised to not take up a branch that is very specialized. You can opt for more open branches like Mechanical, CS, IT. Chemical Engineering has a huge demand when it comes for Job opportunities. It would be a safer option than to go for Metallurgy and material Science. If you think that the new IIT you got Mechanical in is going to bloom over the years than it is fine. If you think that the value of that IIT won't be that much you can ignore. If you are ready to compromise with the IITs you wish to get in then you can choose Chemical or Mechanical. Below is the link for you to compare your colleges and it will help you narrow down your choices.

Hello Koushik,

It's a bit difficult to compare these two because these two IITs are considered to be good but if you see in terms of ranking obviously IIT Madras has an upper hand over iit bhu.

So, it also depends on your interest that whether you like coding or you like to deal with circuits. But as per current scenario I would recommend you take up iit bhu.

Hello aspirant,

Both the colleges were regarded as India's best engineering institute. You can choose any branch according to your interest.

I'm describing both the institution for the respective branch recent placements records, hope it will help you to make a better decision;

IIT MADRAS - Electrical Engineering -> Almost 80% of students get placements from EE branch yearly. The highest package received in the year 2018-19 is 39LPA. You can expect an average package around 10LPA from the recruiters. The companies which have visited the campus for placements were Flipkart, Huawei, Intel, Cisco, IBM, Microsoft, Qualcomm, Samsung, etc.

IIT HYDERABAD - AI & ML Engineering -> As AI Engineering were included in IIT Hyderabad course recently so I didn't find any previous placements records. Well, you will get a good placement with a handsome package. That is sure. As AI is on trend now every new gadgets is working or will be working with AI in future. So in the field there is a good scope ahead.
