IIT Bombay Metallurgy and IIT Madras Chemical both are excellent options with excellent opportunitues in all of Core, Non Core, IT, Software and Analytics Sectors.

Perhaps when making a choice between the above two, I would suggest you to choose the Institute at vicinity of your hometown. Both the Branches have equally great Placements, Academic Outlook, Research opportunitues and Infrastructure.

As far as Non Core/IT/Finance/Consultancy Placements are concerned, both being top IITs provide substantial opportunities with good Pay scales and maximum packages lying between 14-20 LPA.

Core Placements for both your options are Bleak. Last year as far as I remember only 3 Companies lined up for Ocean Engineering Students, ExxonMobil, Indian Register of Shipping and Oceanergy. IIT Bombay Environmental too faces same dearth of Core opportunities.

I would advise you to forgo the top 5 IITs and target the Next 5 IITs. You will surely get either of Chemical/Metallurgical/Industrial at IIT Roorkee, BHU, Hyderabad, Indore and Guwahati.

Another choice can be taking a Core Branch like Mechanical , Petroleum or Chemical at IIT ISM Dhanbad.Core placements at IIT ISM are at an all time high there.

Hello, it also depends on your interest for branch.
But in my opinion you should go with IIT Madras Chemical Engineering as IIT Madras is ranked first among all Engineering colleges of India in Nirf Engineering ranking 2020.

And most importantly all IIT are top colleges of India but chemical engineering is a very good branch and it has a good placement scope. Placement of IIT Madras Chemical Engineering in 2019 was in between
Rs. 4.8 lakhs to Rs.32 lakhs per annum.
For priority basis first IIT Madras then IIT Bombay then IIT Roorkee.

Dear student,

The admision in iits are given purely on basis of your jee advanced ranks.
If you want chemical engineering in IIT Bombay then you have to secure a very good rank in jee  advanced exam as per your category.

Hello, it also depends on your interest for branch and all three IIT comes under top IIT of India and are highly ranked in Nirf Engineering ranking.

But I would recommend you to go with IIT Madras as it is ranked first among all Engineering colleges of India in Nirf Engineering ranking of 2020 and IIT Madras placement of mechanical engineering are good and for priority basis first is IIT Madras second is IIT Kanpur then IIT Bombay.

All the best.
Hope this will help you.

By assuming that by better you mean a high paying package, you must go for electrical or electronics in Guwahati over chemical in Bombay.

Chemical in Bombay in terms of placements will not be at par with electronics and electrical at Guwahati. As the placement of electronics is at par with CSE.

Best of luck!

Hello, if you are interested in a specific branch then you can go with that branch. Both IIT are top colleges of India.

I would recommend you to go with IIT Kharagpur Electrical engineering as placements of electrical engineering are better than chemical engineering.
And IIT Kharagpur infrastructure is very good and campus is also big.

Electrical engineering is a good branch with lots of opportunities for placements and if you have interest in chemistry or you are interested in chemical engineering then IIT Bombay is a good option.

All the best.
Hope this will help you.
