Since you haven’t mentioned the branch you are interested in, I will assume you have no particular preference. Now, the primary factor to consider is if you value the brand of the college or the branch of your choice. Consider the following points
The best option would be to choose IIT Dhanbad CSE. It’s true that it won’t offer the opportunities and exposure that the top 5 IITs would but for me branch is more important than the brand name of the college. So, choose according to your preferences.
It would be advisable to choose the branch as per your interest first. And then if you figure out that you have an interest in civil engineering, you should go to Thapar. On the other hand, if you have an interest in computer science then you should go to Jaypee Noida.

Being a student of Jaypee myself, I can say that Thapar’s placement records are better, especially recently.
To be very honest, Civil Engineering is a new branch relative to any other branch at IET DAVV. This brings the biggest drawback that there are no permanent professors for the Civil branch. The same situation is in the labs as well. The labs are well equipped but there is no experienced guide or lab assistant who can assist or demonstrate things to the students.
Though, being an engineering student, you must be well prepared for the fact that you have to study by yourself. At the IET DAVV campus, despite having better facilities and faculties, they have the same condition. Although, some of the faculties are very brilliant and try to cover the syllabus in the most refined way. You may get less practical exposure here particularly in the civil engineering branch but if you are determined enough, you will get to learn a lot.

You will also get sufficient time to prepare for competitive exams like GATE, CAT, etc. while you are pursuing B.Tech from IET DAVV because attendance is not a major concern here.
The placements depend on how actively you participate in them and your academic records are good. If you fulfil the eligibility criteria, you will definitely get a package ranging in between 4-5 LPA which is quite better in such a core field.
One important thing that you should not miss out on is that IET lets you grow, it is not like any other college which will load you with many assignments. Therefore, If you get a chance to get into IET DAVV, it’s a big yes!
IIT Indore is one of the leading new IITs that has made its name because of its multiple achievements. Here is exactly why you should give more preference to IIT Indore than IIT Patna.
In all, IIT Indore is a great choice for Civil Engineering.
I have friends from both RV College of Engineering and MIT Manipal, civil engineering holds the same value from either of them. It is because they both follow the same curriculum and guidelines laid by UGC and AICTE. However, both of them hold an edge over each other in their own way. Here’s why:
The table below shows a brief insight of both institutes:

At the end of the day, your pool of interest matters the most. If you are getting your preferred branch, set the preferences that are more important to you. Are you looking for a great placement or great brand value? The choice is up to you.
Honestly speaking, this internet-controlled era hardly requires good teachers as everything is available on the net. You can get in touch with internationally proclaimed professors with just a click. As far as IIT faculty is concerned, all IITs have similar degree holders that are quality knowledgeable.
A good teacher is the one that hones your talents to the fullest. They not only help you acquire knowledge but also shape your thinking style. Every institute has a few teachers that influence a student in a unique way. I am sure both IIT Guwahati and IIT BHU will have similar teachers.
Ultimately, what matters is the environment and the activities that these colleges will provide us to expand our intellect and maximize our talents. Pay little focus on the faculty and look for the right field to enter that will help you shape your career. Personally, I would suggest you go for IIT Guwahati as it has more open-minded and active people in that area which will give you considerable freedom to think and perform.
For Civil Engineering Thapar University placements are great. Here are the recent placement highlights of the branch.
Average CTC | INR 5-6 LPA |
Highest CTC | INR 15 LPA |
Placement rate | 90% |
Percentage of students getting placed in core companies | 25-30% |
JP Morgan, Larsen and Toubro, L&T, are some of the major recruiters that visit the campus placement frequently.

The Civil Department at IIT Bhubaneswar has a highly knowledgeable faculty. The department faculty members hold degrees from top institutes in India and abroad. The department holds technical seminars and workshops on a regular basis.
Even though the NIRF Ranking and placement statistics for IIT Bhubaneswar Civil are not as good as those for B.Des at IIT Guwahati, I can assure you that the Civil Engineering course of our college will provide you with good academics and placements.
You must make the final call based on your own interest and preferences.
Before diving into any conclusion, it is important that you understand the basic difference between B.Tech and B.E degrees. Following which, you have to clarify the doubts you have regarding both NIT Goa and Goa Engineering College.
Categories | EEE at NIT Goa | Civil at GEC |
Course Fee | 5.38 lakh | 2.90 lakh |
Highest CTC | 16 LPA | 6-7 LPA |
Average CTC | 6-8 LPA | 3.5 LPA |
Recruiting Companies | TCS, Infosys, Bosch, Schneider Electric, etc. | IBM, Wipro, TCS, Tata Steel, etc. |
Therefore, it is suggested that you opt for NIT Goa, as it will provide you with better opportunities. They have an active placement cell, which not only helps with placements but also conducts seminars, internships and industrial visits.
The answer is below average. The placements are not ideal, but this depends on several factors.
The primary thing is you should possess first class (60%) in aggregate (or 60% in each semester for 1-2 companies like tata motors.). As is well known, MSU's results are not as good as those of other universities, with only 50-60% of students receiving first-class honors (60% or higher). In other universities, you can easily get 80-85%.
Everyone says that MSU attracts a large number of MNC companies for recruitment. However, there are only 3-4 nice MNCs that offer nice packages and recruit only 3-5 students. They don't always hire any of the students. The maximum package is approximately 5-5.5 LPA. On average, you can get a package of 3-4 LPA. Then there are some other companies that offer you between 2.5 and 3.5 LPA. There are 2-3 non-core companies that recruit with average packages ranging from 2.5 to 4 LPA. Score high and strive to remain in the top 15-20. Your chances of being placed would improve.
