If one were to choose between IIT BHU Electronics/Electrical, Civil or Chemical at IIT Madras/Kharagpur and Engineering Physics at IIT Delhi/ Madras, what should they do?

I have a friend who goes to IIT Delhi and was able to give some information regarding the Engineering Physics course offered by the institute. Here is what he had to say.

If you want to do a core job just after completing your degree, B.Tech in Engineering Physics will not be the right choice for you. If you opt for it, you will have to go for higher studies like MS or Ph.D. after your B.Tech.

You will need to go for a research-oriented career if you wish to utilize your major. Most of the graduates who pursue engineering physics at IITD are placed in various consultancy jobs and as software engineers. This is because they had obtained a minor degree in CS and only a few people pursue higher studies after BTech.

So, it depends on your interest and future goals. For the other choices, you can reach out to the students of the respective institute for detailed information.
