So, you're trying to figure out which IIT and branch combo is the best fit for you, right? Let's break it down:

First things first: Decide if you're more interested in Electrical Engineering (think power systems and machines) or Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE, which is all about hardware and electronic devices).
IIT Roorkee vs. IIT BHU (Electrical): Both have similar course content, but IIT Roorkee might have a slight edge because more companies visit for placements. In 2019-20, IIT Roorkee had an average CTC of around 14.7 LPA with 254 companies participating. IIT BHU, in 2019, had about 52 companies with an average salary of 8.19 LPA. Electrical Engineering at IIT BHU placed 88 students.
IIT Guwahati (ECE): They have a good ECE program. In 2019, they had 84% placement with an average CTC of around 11 LPA.
IIT BHU (ECE): If you're also considering software placements, IIT BHU could be a better bet. Their software placements are generally better than IIT Guwahati, and they have a decent coding culture.

So, it really depends on whether you prefer electrical or ECE and what kind of job you're aiming for!

Its a Question about your future!
