Dear Aspirant,

The first criteria for choosing any of these NITs, is the branch you get in these NITs. For example if you're getting a core/top branch in one and some average branch in other then you must go with the good branch.

Some good branches are:-

  • Computer Science
  • Electrical
  • Electronics
  • IT
  • Communication

Hope this helps Thank you.

Hello student,

If you prefer college instead of branch, then Production engineering/biotechnology in NIT calicut is a good option. But if you prefer branch over college then CET is better. If you are getting Production engineering/biotechnology in NIT calicut, there are even chances that you might get a better branch in other NITs. I suggest you to check other NITs where you can get a good branch.Not only NITs , you can apply to IIITs and GFTIs. i suggest you to take a look on the following links -

Hey aspirant,

You should choose only that branch in which you feel you are comfortable with. Because of course you won't want to waste your four years of life in studying something in which you are not interested.

Also, the colleges are preferred on the basis of one's priorities.

However if we see the placement statistics of both the colleges then highest package offered by svnit is 39 lpa and average is around 4-6lpa.whereas in Nit calicut the highest package offered is 50 lpa and average ranges around 7-10lpa.

So, on the basis of placement statistics I would suggest you to go for Nit calicut but as I mentioned above the choice should be totally yours.

Hope it helps

Good luck.

Hi Rohit,

Let's carry out some quick comparisons:-

NIRF rank

  • NIT Calicut - 23rd
  • MANIT Bhopal - 65th

Average placements

  • NIT Calicut :- B.E /B.Tech -  8.05 Lakhs , B.Arch - 6.20 Lakhs
  • MANIT Bhopal  :- B.E /B.Tech - 6.50 Lakhs, B.Arch - 4.20 Lakhs

Facilities:- Almost similar

As per the details mentioned above NIT Calicut is better than MANIT Bhopal in every single aspect but you will have to leave your home state so that is the only advantage in MANIT Bhopal.

As per my advice, NIT Calicut is best
