The placement for Electrical and Electronics Engineering at MAIT is almost similar to that of other mediocre colleges in India. I have some friends at MAIT and here is some information that I gathered from them. m

• For students in Electrical and Electronics Engineering, quite a less number of core electrical or electronic companies visit the campus for placement.
• Most of the students in the EEE branch are placed in service-based IT companies only, as like most other private engineering colleges of the same tier. Accenture and Infosys are two mass recruiters in the institute for these circuital branches.
• There are some companies who recruit specific technical students from specific branches only like mechanical, civil, etc. They usually don’t allow students from EEE to sit for their recruitment drives.
• The faculty is MAIT is decent and helpful. So, if you are genuinely interested in the subject of electrical and electronics then you can opt for the degree. But, placements are not that satisfactory due to the lack of core company jobs in the EEE branch.

Overall, the placement of EEE at MAIT is average.

As an institute, IIT Madras is much ahead of IIT Bhubaneswar, as it is one of the oldest and reputed IITs. But electrical engineering in IIT Bhubaneswar is quite good and offers many opportunities. The institute also has very impressive placement stats. In the year 2019, around 86% of students got placed from the Electrical engineering branch. The official average package for the batch 2017 as released by the institute (IIT Bhubaneswar) for Electrical Engineering was 8.5 LPA. A good number of core companies, software companies and PSU’s hire Electrical Engineers (EE) from IIT Bhubaneswar.

Also, Chemical engineering is a great branch with many prospects. Companies like O&G, Chemical Research firms- for both India & abroad visit regularly for placements. The non- core companies like Fin, MC. Techs are also open for Chemical Engineers. IITM offers decent placements, in 2019 there was 85.52% placement from duel degrees and the placement rate for Chemical Engineers was around 74%. The average CTC offered in IITM was 16 LPA.

IITM is good for the students who are interested in chemical engineering and would like to pursue MS/Ph.D. in the top universities. If you are looking for careers in research then chemical engineering provides ample opportunities. Getting a dual degree will also build a way for R&D roles in many companies such as ITC, Shell, HUL, etc. Also, the best part about going for chemical engineering is that it provides ample opportunities for people to prepare for non-core sectors as well.

So, choose the branch of your interest.

Yes, IIT Bhubaneswar provides students with a chance of foreign internships for research-based programs like MSc Ph.D. in Physics. It has collaborations with the University of Texas, North Denton, Texas USA, University of Edinburgh, UK, University of Western Ontario, Canada, Partnership with Warwick Manufacturing Group UK, etc. Also, countries like Germany, the USA, etc. offer students to work in Research institutes, Defence labs, etc.

Applicants with 9-10 CGPA have a better chance of getting selected into a foreign internship program in MSc Ph.D. in Physics.

No, there is no such dress-code in IIT Bhubaneswar. But there are few basic rules regarding dress code like other colleges IIT Bhubaneswar expects the girls to follow. You should not attend the classes wearing something which may be perceived as inappropriate for the classroom environment. Other than that girls are free to wear what they want in the hostels.

But, there is a certain dress code for certain events in the college. In convocation, IIT Bhubaneswar asks its degree recipient to maintain a proper dress code. The dress code for girls is Saree with Golden Border/Churidar of Offwhite or White or Cream Color. For placements, the girls are always asked to be in their formals. The formals can be in the form of Churidar / Saree / Blazer with shirts tucked in, etc. Since jeans are not a part of formals therefore the girls are not allowed to wear such during such events.
