Q: Which is better: NIT Hamirpur Electrical Branch or VIT Chennai CSE Branch?

I don't know about this comparison, but I can guide you about Lovely Professional University.

At LPU, instead of comparing colleges, you should focus on choosing the right branch based on your interest and career goals. If you take Electrical or EEE, LPU gives you good exposure through labs, projects, and internships, especially in areas like power systems, automation, and emerging technologies like EV and smart grids. If you choose a computer-related branch like CSE, then the placement opportunities are generally higher because many IT companies visit campus and offer better packages.

In general, at LPU and most universities, CSE has higher placement potential, while Electrical is more core-focused and requires deeper conceptual understanding. So if your priority is high packages and IT jobs, go for CSE. If you are interested in core engineering, government jobs, or technical fields, Electrical is a good option.

So the better choice depends on your interest, not just the college or branch name.

Good placements in 2025. Faculty is qualified and really helpful. The infrastructure is also good.

Placements: I did my B.Tech in engineering Physics and it was the first batch. This is for the session 2023-2024. 13 out of 16 students got placed (82.25 percent). The maximum package offered was 10 LPA. In the next session 18 out of 27 students were placed (66.67 percent) and the maximum package was 18 LPA.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities at our department were good. There was a solid-state physics lab, a modern Physics lab, an instrumentation lab, and an optics lab. The reading hall had Wi-Fi and ample seating space. The library has all kinds of books. The new lecture hall/ classroom had great infrastructure. The quality of food was good (some hostels had great food and some decent). There was a student activity centre where you can play sports and a gym facility was also available for both boys and girls.

Faculty: The teachers were very kind and knowledgeable and they had a great understanding of their subjects. I think the course should include more practical-related subjects and labs to make the students industry-ready. The difficulty of semester exams was moderate with some subjects being a little difficult.

Other: Many events and fests were occurring throughout the year which was great. The campus was beautiful with the Dhauladhar range being visible from some places.

Placements: The placement record is 93%. The lowest package is around 8 LPA. The average is 12 LPA. The highest is 53 LPA. Recruiting companies include JP Morgan, D. E. Shaw, Cisco, Wells Fargo, Samsung, Dell, and many more. The internship record is around 60–70% in B.Tech, M.Tech, and other programs. Top recruiters include Samsung, Dell, and Oracle.

Infrastructure: There are very good-quality hostels in our institute. There are a total of 13 hostels at the National Institute of Technology, Hamirpur. The quality of food in our hostel is very good and hygienic. Mess workers are cooperative, and night canteens are present in every hostel. A hospital is also present in our institute.

Faculty: Faculty members are good. You need to be regular in classes. Almost all students pass the exams. The syllabus here is somewhat scattered. We need to connect them to become industry-ready. Semester exams are at a good level. You need to prepare well to pass them.

Most beautiful campus compared to other NITs.

Placements: The percentage of students who have been placed this year is approximately 96 percent and last year it was 100 per cent. However only 3 to 4 students got a 20 LPA or 24 LPA package and the remaining all got a 5 LPA package which is why I gave 3 stars. Sometimes ONGC, IOCL, and GAIL also come at the time of placement and most of the students got placement.

Infrastructure: In the first year you get Kailash Boys' hostel where in the first 2 months, the facility of the mess is good but the quality of this goes down. After completion of the first year other hostels are also good and their mess is also very good. Wi-Fi facility is too poor and a night canteen is available, and all games are excluded. Indoor and outdoor activities excluding swimming are available.

Faculty: 1st year faculty is not that good but after this in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th are too good and helpful. They always teach more than enough according to the syllabus. This is also good for other competition exams like GATE and many others. The semester exams are difficult but all are there from notes and the pass percentage is 95 percent.

Other: Chemical Engineering is not that much better compared to CSE and other branches. There are many fests in a year and the main event is Nimbus and Hillfair and too much crowd gathers at that time.

A decent college with good environment.

Placements: In electrical engineering department at my college, the placement rate is around 95 percent. There is a decent package of placements of around 22 Lacs and the highest package is I guess 55-60 Lacs. Well, the rates are gradually increasing, the level of education and placement is increasing day by day.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is quite decent. The hostels are not up to mark, water shortage, no Wi-Fi, etc., but the classes, lecture halls, laboratories and library are good, and atmosphere is very nice. Overall, it's a nice place with lovely climate and greenery.

Faculty: The curriculum is good. Everything we need in our course is already upto mark, and also exposure to practical skills for internships and all is there. Teaching quality is good but for exams, you'll have to study on your own if you want to score good marks.
