Questions related to IIITDM Kancheepuram

On Question asked by student community

Have a question related to IIITDM Kancheepuram ?

IIITDM Kancheepuram is known for its focus on design, manufacturing, and innovation. The mechanical engineering branch here has decent placements, though not as high as computer science. Students from mechanical have received average packages around 6.5 LPA. In specializations like smart manufacturing, the average can go up to 8.5 LPA. Some dual degree students have even secured packages up to 10 or 11 LPA.

The research opportunities are very good. The department works on areas like smart manufacturing, robotics, biomechanics, and design thinking. The curriculum is project based, and students get hands-on experience through labs and internships. This helps a lot if you're aiming for a career in research, design, or core mechanical roles.

Good Morning. Is Mechanical in IIITDM, Kancheepuram or Chemical engineering from NIT, Trichy better?

Hello Aspirant,

Both Mechanical Engineering in IIITDM Kancheepuram and Chemical Engineering in NIT Trichy have their own strengths and weaknesses; they are both good options (yes, I know this is a cliché). Which is the better choice for you to take will ultimately depend on your interests and future ambitions.

You should take Mechanical in IIITDM Kancheepuram if:

You are specifically interested in design, manufacturing, robotics or mechatronics, etc.
You prefer a design-based curriculum that also allows for some of your own interdisciplinary work from parallel fields such as electronics and computer science.
You plan on doing higher studies in mechanical/design-related fields or, you are going for a role in technology where you want to apply skill learning across multiple domains.

You should take Chemical in NIT Trichy if:

You are really interested in core chemical processes, research, or looking for a career in critical industries like oil, gas, pharmacy, materials.
You think NIT Trichy may have better connections from the alumni network, better placements or recruitment, or possibly better facilities and building resources.
You seek public sector jobs, core chemical R & D jobs, or want to study abroad before you apply for your first job in core chemical disciplines.

which is best Mechanical engineering in nit nagpur or ece in NIT Raipur or CSE in iiitdm kancheepuram

Hello,

All three options are good but depend on what you want.

Mechanical Engineering at NIT Nagpur is good if you like machines, engines, and designing things.
ECE at NIT Raipur is good if you like electronics, communication, and circuits.
CSE at IIITDM Kancheepuram is best if you like coding, software, and computers.

If you want a better future in tech and jobs, CSE at IIITDM is generally more in demand. But if you prefer core engineering fields, then Mechanical or ECE are good choices.

So, pick based on your interest and what career you want.

Hope it helps !

I have GATE score 417 ( DA paper ) in 2025. I am OPEN category. What are my possible college options for doing M. tech in AI / AI DS / AI ML / DS. Do I get chances in any IIT, NIT, IIIT? Any possibility for IIITDM Kancheepuram

Hello there,

With a GATE 2025 score of 417 in DA (Data Science and Artificial Intelligence) and being from the OPEN category , your chances for M.Tech in AI / AI & DS / AI & ML / DS at top IITs are very limited , but you may have a chance in newer or interdisciplinary programs at IIITs, IIITDM, and a few NITs . Here's a breakdown:

Chances in IITs :

Older IITs (IIT Bombay, Madras, Delhi, Kanpur, etc.): Unlikely. Their cutoffs for OPEN category in AI-related programs are typically 600+ in GATE score.
Newer IITs (like IIT Bhilai, IIT Jammu, IIT Goa): Slight chance in interdisciplinary or niche programs, especially if seats remain vacant .

Chances in NITs:

You have moderate chances for M.Tech in AI/ML/DS in:

NIT Trichy
NIT Surathkal
NIT Silchar
NIT Jalandhar
NIT Nagaland (newer programs) You can check CCMT counselling for these.

Chances in IIITs:

Your score is suitable for:

IIITDM Kancheepuram – Yes , you have a fair chance for programs like:
- M.Tech in Data Science
- M.Tech in AI/ML (if offered)
IIIT Hyderabad – Tough; they have separate admissions with a high bar.
IIIT Bangalore – Unlikely with this score unless they consider DA paper with other criteria.

Suggestions:

Participate in CCMT 2025 counselling (for NITs, IIITs, GFTIs).
Explore IIITDM Kancheepuram through their own admission portal or CCMT.
Keep an eye on spot rounds/vacant seats in lesser-known institutes.

I would recommend you to use GATE College Predictor Tool by Careers360 to get the list of possible colleges you can get with your rank or percentile.

Thank you, and I wish you all the best in your bright future.

IIIT Kancheepuram or Kottayam or Delhi OR NIT Calicut best for ECE?

See if you want to enjoy an urban life with very good placements after you pass out and awesome internships, then IIIT Delhi is the way to go. The only demerit is that fees of IIIT Delhi is very high for a normal middle class person, but if you take an education loan, then paying it off will be very easy as you'll be earning very handsomely after it.

But if you want the same good facilities with less fees, the NIT Calicut is a very good option due to it's reputation in the industry.
