The placement scenario for a dual degree in civil engineering is different from other branches in IIT Bhubaneswar. Nowadays, students of civil engineering prefer non-core jobs over core jobs. The reason being higher initial pay in non-core jobs and the unavailability of core job in civil engineering. But for civil engineering in an IIT, a lot of students prefer dual degree courses over BTech. The advantage of a dual degree student is that one gets the opportunity to work on a project in 2nd year holidays, and intern in the 3rd year and 4th year. In 3rd year, the BTech student changes from BTech to Dual degree student.

The placements for civil engineering students’ weather in the dual degrees or in B.Tech are not up to the expectations, whether you graduate from IIT-Bhubaneswar or any other IIT. This is the reason why most of the students indulge in coding and switch to non-core companies. Few students go for their own start-up, while some opt for pursuing a Ph.D. and some go for PSUs. Although a handful of big firms such as L&T constructions, Marvel Realtors, etc. come to campus for recruitment. A student must have good practical knowledge and experience. These firms mostly go for experience (unlike other branches). They hire students as trainees and once the students have completed the tenure as trainees while gaining experience simultaneously, their pay increases satisfactorily and exponentially. The average package is about 7-9 lakhs (approximately). The percentage of students from civil engineering getting placed in core companies is less than the students from other core branches (changes year to year). But overall, the placements for Civil Engineering are not as good as other core branches in most of the IITs and it’s the same for IIT Bhubaneswar.

IIT & NIT are different in a number of ways and judging on the placement figures, one should not make any decisions. Although old NITs may offer better placement as compared to the IIT Bhubaneswar, there are few factors that make IIT Bhubaneswar a worthy choice. IITs have a brand value that is globally recognized however NITs as a brand don’t offer the same. They demand higher cut off marks during selection as compared to NITs. This results in a better quality of students and in turn better placements.

IITs offer better engineering faculties, however being a new IIT, it still does not have the required number of faculty members. IIT Bhubaneswar collaborates with esteemed institutions like ISRO, DRDO, BARC, etc. Students of IIT Bhubaneswar receive cushy internship offers from some of the globally renowned organizations like Google, Amazon, and Microsoft. NITs research work is not at the same level. With a spacious campus and state-of-the-art research labs, IIT Bhubaneswar provides good infrastructure. Past placement records from NITs indicate that the average pay package offered to the students (B.Tech) is somewhere between Rs 40,000 and 42,000 monthly. Whereas, the average CTC Offered at IIT Bhubaneswar was around 11.44 LPA. 39 LPA was the highest CTC. PSUs like ISRO, DRDO, IOCL, HPCL, ONGC visited the campus for recruitment. Other top recruiters were Amazon, Microsoft, Goldman Sachs, KPMG, L&T, Deloitte, Directi, Reliance Industries, IBM, Tesco, Samsung, Apple Inc, Adobe, Tata Steel, Tata Power, Trident Group, UnitedHealth Group, etc. A total of 89 companies visited the campus for placement drive. Although, variance among the salary packages depends on the ability of candidates and academic performances. All institutes have their pros and cons, so choose an institute based on which course you are interested in and how good is that specific course in that institute.
