IIT Kanpur - Indian Institute of Technology

IIT, Kharagpur's electrical engineering should be your first priority when compared with IIT, Kanpur's mechanical engineering.
Computer science and electrical engineering are very high paying branches. Hence, they are always preferred by toppers.
On the other side, mechanical, known as the 'ever-green branch' is not as ever-green as it seems. The demand is not very high, neither low in the current scenario, but one thing for sure, this field is never destined to decline.

IIT Kanpur, IIT Delhi and IIT Roorkee are old and best institutes but as per the present rankings IIT Delhi holds a good position and it provides better placements.

I can say that both the institutions are renowned in terms of providing better education for the students. But to some extent, IIT-Kharagpur provides you better placement as compared to IIT-Kanpur.
All the best.

Hello Rahul,
For admission into IISc a student has to clear JEE Mains. Normally window of only two years is available to have passed 12th. Like for this year, student should have passed 12th in 2016 or 2017. Some other finer details are available on website.

Hello Ashutosh,
Congrats on getting a good rank . these IITs are one among the top IITs in India. All IITs are good but Kanpur and Kharagpur are the better ones.
First, go by your interest. if you want to do mechanical engineering, then opt for Kanpur and Kharagpur. If you want to do CSE then go for IIT Indore.
I won't say that IIT Indore is equal to Kanpur and Kharagpur but the placements and the reputation are good.
if you want CSE alone instead of core branch like mechanical then you can go for IIT Indore.

All the departments are at par with each other, however core branches have their charm.

IIT-Kharagpur is better. All IITs are unique in one way or another. Do your course with passion and try to acquire new knowledge and skills and experience.

In all IIT, IIT Guwahati has best infrastructure, in fact one of best infrastructure in the world. But in case of Kanpur and Kharagpur, IIT- Kanpur has better infrastructure and placement, but Kharagpur is one of best IIT we have.

The package depends upon the company, experience of the student and the profile offered to the student. The average package for a MBA student comes to around 10.25 lacs as per last year's estimate and it is liable to change with each year.

There is a separate admission test for all IITs for pursuing M.Sc, based on which interviews are performed and subsequent selection is done.
