While Electronics and Communication are one of the better branches offered at the college, it is also one of the toughest. You will definitely have to study a lot and might have to give up on other activities to really focus on the studies that are involved with this field.

Many of my friends also find it quite hectic to balance assignments and projects with other extracurricular activities and some of them have even considered dropping the course overall. In terms of faculty, you will find some helpful people who will provide you some really good quality education.

The professors here are known to show interest in their field and passion for their subjects. This will translate very well into you and who knows, you will become fond of the subject as well. Some of the faculty definitely go out of the way to help students. All you will have to do is focus and study to get a good grade.

If you are concerned about placements, overall, 133 companies visit the college. The highest salary offered is INR 49.75 LPA with an average CTC of INR 11.58 LPA. The placement percentage for ECE is 89.72 which is quite good with the highest CTC of 38 LPA. Some of the top recruiters include IBM, Oracle, Amazon, Microsoft, JP Morgan, etc.

While the branch may be tough, the placements are definitely quite good for the same. With a little determination and focus, I think you will definitely be able to do quite well in ECE at NIT.

This is yet a difficult option to make a choice in opting for the simplest college among the both mentioned above since both of its departments are comparatively different. However, one must have a transparent image of the sort of school and department you would like to urge admission and make choices accordingly that match your prerequisites.
