Hello Atul,

Main criteria to decide whether to choose Production Engineering at NIT Trichy or Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) at NIT Agartala also involve several factors.

NIT Trichy - Production Engineering: NIT Trichy is one of the most excellent National Institutes of Technology in India, better known for its academic excellence, along with good placement records. Studying Production Engineering at the place would open diverse career opportunities in manufacturing, operations management, and supply chain management. However, the institutes have always superior resources in the form of well-equipped labs and workshops. In most cases, a larger and more established alumni network can prove helpful in obtaining internships and job placements.

NIT Agartala - ECE: On the other hand, the field of ECE is highly in demand as it has applicatory use in nearly every sector nowadays, from telecommunication, robotics, to embedded systems. If you are one of those interested persons who always have passion for the electronics and communication technologies, then this specialization may be more appropriate to your interest. NIT Agartala - Though it becomes very popular among fresh engineering graduates now, yet it is not equal to that prestige of NIT Trichy.

In the end, you should probably choose that which mainly stimulates your interest, adds to your career ambitions, and presents the nature of the opportunities each program offers. Prioritizing what is of most excitement can lead to an even both educational and professional journey that is fulfilling.

Dear aspirant,

According to the alumni reviews,

NIT Agartala offers pretty good infrastructure and other facilities for the course yo continue.

About, 70 percent of the students who enroll into the course get placed and the top recruiters are Wipro, Accenture, Suzuki, Tredence. The recruitment is usaully by IT companies and hence, there is not much scope for core jobs.

The faculty members are not that great but you have a really good chance of getting good internship opportunities.

In short, if you are interested in CS and are only choosing this branch for getting into the college, then, you have a really good opportunity if you are willing to go the extra mile.

Hope this helps.

Hello aspirant

With the above mentioned percentile score your CRL will be around 4-5.5 Lakhs, but your Category rank will be quite lesser. But still, looking at the previous year cutoff for jee mains, this performance for ST category is not sufficient to get any good NIT in any branch like NIT Agartala. The minimum marks required for ST category in order to get a good NIT in good branches is around 65-70+ percentile score in JEE mains.

Biut do not worry as you can some other state level private engineering colleges under this rank like :

SRM University

Parul University

Amity University

Thapar University

and many more
