Core Electrical + IT: Two Lanes Open
Your batch gets attention from PSU giants like Power Grid, NTPC, and BHEL, but also from IT services heavyweights like TCS, Infosys, and Cognizant. If you live for circuits and grids, be ready to filter out non-core roles early so you don't drift into a lane you didn't sign up for.

The verdict
Good fit
VNIT Nagpur's EEE program is a solid bet if you want the NIT tag, affordable fees under ₹6 lakhs, and a curriculum that keeps core electrical alive while opening IT backup doors. 88% placements and a ₹10.5L average CTC are respectable, but Nagpur isn't a metro tech hub and the NIRF rank sits in the 70s. If you're chasing pure software or top-tier city exposure, look elsewhere. If you want transformers, grids, and a safety net of recruiters, this hits different.
