- Branch wise - CSE > Manufacturing science and engineering
However, this is simply a popular trend, and you don't have to follow it. It is best to make a decision based on your individual preferences.
First you should make up your mind regarding the domain you want to continue with.
Here are some information to make your decision easier:-
- IIT Kharagpur is one of the oldest institutes in India established in 1951.
- IIT Kharagpur is ranked 6th in the NIRF ranking while IIT Patna is Ranked 25th.
- IIT Kharagpur is famous for its Manufacturing science and engineering branch which is one of the core branches in B.Tech.
- IIT has a better brand name and value than BITS both in and outside of India.
- IIT Kharagpur has an Average Salary of 20 LPA with BITS Pilani at 30 LPA and BITS Hyderabad at 24 LPA.
- IIT Kharagpur has a campus area of 2100 acres compared to BITS Pilani's 328 acres.
The main agenda of IISERs and NISER is to promote research culture and motivate the students to conduct extensive research as a part of their curriculum.
My friend was a student at NISER and she loved the research environment there. She claimed the physics faculties to be extremely proficient in their respective areas of research. In fact, the Head of the Department of Physics even bagged the Shanti Swaroop Bhatnagar Prize.
Specifically speaking, it has great scope in high energy physics and condensed matter physics. The lab facilities of the new campus are top-notch. Moreover, the UG course of the School of Physical Sciences at NISER is comprehensive and covers various areas of physics such as quantum mechanics, relativity, cosmology, etc. The best part is that you get the chance to attend 242 credit coursework in rider to fulfill your MSc integrated course.
