Which is the better choice in terms of placements, NIT Silchar Civil or NIT Sikkim ECE?

Among NIT Silchar and NIT Sikkim, NIT Silchar is better. The placement and faculty at NIT Sikkim are not that great since it is a newly formed NIT. NIT Silchar is one of the oldest NITs and hence the placement here is good, for the civil department as well.

According to 2020 placement highlights, the average and highest CTC offered at NIT Silchar are 7 LPA and 35 LPA. The average and highest CTC offered at NIT Sikkim are 8 LPA and 18 LPA respectively.

Many students leave NIT Sikkim when they get NIT Silchar in spot rounds, you will find a lot of such students at NIT Silchar who earlier were at NIT Sikkim.

If you work hard and score a CGPA of or above 9, you can apply for changing your branch after the first year. In every college, you will find an ample number of students who changed their branches after the first year.

I recommend NIT Silchar.
