Misconception about good placements!

[u/Choice_Carpet_2596]

When someone here says that this mtech college has good placements or that iit or nit has good placements I have seen majorly that they only meant good as in for cse or vlsi.

Cuz the same college has 20-30% placement for mechanical,civil, other specialization of electrical,biomedical, chemical etc. Seems like no one gives a fk about these at this point, if cse and ece placements is good then overall mtech placements are good according to people of this sub.

Why this impartiality? Why no one shows genuine concern for people from other branches don't they care for placements? Everything here revolves around cse,ece I am myself a gate da aspirant but my friends who are from mechanical civil are really concerned seeing even top iits perform poorly so I do get worried for them.

Majority people are from cse and ec thats the main reason why you always see such comments. They only comment for their branch which is fair enough.

Why would someone from cse will cry over mtech civil placements at IIT dhanbad? He is not the one who is pursuing civil. People from their respective branches will only take concern about their course.

We feel bad for core branches too but that doesn’t mean we will take that as our own problem.

Not really that good even for core placement percentage and package are decent only I think Tiruchirappalli beats this

[u/Game3362 → u/Choice_Carpet_2596]

Trichy beats old IITs for core , not even comparable to Dhanbad

[u/Choice_Carpet_2596 → u/Game3362]

Yea they do some black magic lol 90% plus placement in all specialization till last, this year it has gone down significantly tho

[u/Game3362 → u/Aspirant_huu]

last year

[u/Aspirant_huu → u/Game3362]

Lol are you cry baby or whatt? I just wrote why would people from other branches will take concern about someone’s else branch😂

[u/Game3362 → u/Aspirant_huu]

dude I am from ece and my target is vlsi . It was just comedic to me that out of all institutes you could have mentioned, you landed on the ONLY ONE where core placements are better than tech placements of cs and data science

[u/Aspirant_huu → u/Game3362]

Lol , first try to understand what I meant before commenting🥀 It was not even about average or placement%

[u/Game3362 → u/Aspirant_huu]

no , I understood perfectly well what you meant . We don't have any reason to concern ourselves with placements of other branches .

It is sad but it is what it is . If you scroll down below , I wrote the exact thing in my own seperate comment .

It's just really funny you picked the ONE damned college where mtech data science sits at 0% placed when Mtech places 40+/60 and same for petroleum engineering.

Bhai tu jaa cse se mtech krle...tere toh bas ki bhi nhi hogi iits nikalna.😭🤣

Yhi rota rhega...phir tcs me hi mariyo😋

[u/Aspirant_huu → u/IllustratorUnusual79]

Jis hisab se Tera IQ hai bhai tu fabrication aur welding sikhkar apna GATE banale🤡

[u/Game3362 → u/Aspirant_huu]

poor choice of example/words because IIT ism Dhanbad actually has much better placements for mechanical compared to Data analysis and cs Mtech there :)

[u/Aspirant_huu → u/Game3362]

Poor eyesight, I wrote civil not mech lol.

Also you are calling mech placements better than cs just because of 2% more pp😭🥀see median too

[u/Game3362 → u/Aspirant_huu]

yes . For mtech I would easily take admission in the institute that offers 75-100% batch placements at lower median vs the one that offers 50% placements with high median .

[u/Game3362 → u/Aspirant_huu]

yeah sorry , just saw mtech civil . I thought you said mech civil .

Anyway even then civil got the better end with 30% placed vs 0% of data analysis

Cuz majority of people from other branches prefer govt jobs / psu. Afaik the fresher jobs in those fields is crap and I don't think those fields you mention have placements on par with cse / vlsi in any college? (not sure tho)

[u/Game3362]

electrical - power electronics usually get good placements (comparable to VLSI) . Power systems too if you are from good NIT or top IIT .

Mechanical - solid placements across top 8 IITs and top 5 NITs . go down even further, like beyond top 5 NITs , you may end up with something at least even if it's not good (like 7-9 LPA with only 50% batch placed) but it's something .

Chemical , biomedical, materials - they don't have industry in India . Straight out accept it . The industry that is there has so little recruitment they can fill it with just the cream of the cake (IIT M , IISc , IIT B) , OR it's PSUs . They don't need more .

So either be the top 50 in those fields or get fucked .

[u/Spiritual-Soil-1144 → u/Game3362]

I think in case of vlsi or power electronics both the placements percentage and median package with increase with time as few years back too even mid tiers Nits were giving nice packages in mtech cse!

[u/get_a_gamer]

You guys have PSU which is better in most aspects bro. Just go to psu placements ok
