Hi,
BIT, Mesra is regularly ranked within the top 15 engineering colleges in India. One of my friends' experience of this college:
Faculty -
It is certainly not the best in the country, not even close. Some of the older professors are good but almost zero focused on research, means they are very outdated in terms of knowledge.
Academic load -
It borders between zilch and extremely light. It also varies between departments though. Electrical and electronics was pretty well taught and rigorous, whereas computer science was a stroll in a park. Electrical department has some very strict professors. Mechanical department is refreshingly hands on and students gain a very good practical understanding.
Facilitates -
Facilities (sports, labs and infra) are about at par with the NITs, although there is a lot of inertia whenever new infrastructure is to be installed. The college only had campus-wide LAN network in 2006. Even now, I hear the speeds are dismal and many useful websites are blocked.
Placements -
Due to the location, placements were not really something the institute could really brag about until after about 2006-07 onward. Nowadays, placements are quite stunning and companies like Facebook have offered mega packages and overseas jobs to a few students. In terms of quantity, placements have always been almost 100% with everyone landing some kind of job, and about 30% of the students end up with multiple offers. Another thing that holds it back is the location. Because of that, adequate exposure isn't available. Hence, a lot depends on your sustainability and curiosity out of the box.

LPU is the best engineering college in India. LPU becomes the best place to pursue an engineering degree with highly qualified teaching staff, best laboratories, and modern technologies. LPU provides abundant opportunities for students to think out of the box. If you get overwhelmed by the structures and construction, civil engineering is the one for you. If you are intrigued by machine designs, their mechanics, and dynamics, go for mechanical engineering. Both are good streams but it depends on your interest as to which stream you want to join and interested in. Mechanical engineering yields some similarities, the biggest difference between the two careers is what professionals in the field engineer. A civil engineer helps design and create buildings, infrastructure, and other large-scale structural projects. The professional life is much, much different between the two. But if you must know, mechanical engineering is more difficult. The core classes use higher-level Maths far more than in civil engineering. Aside from that, there is no real difference between difficulties. LPU provides placement opportunities to all the deserving candidates, from all courses. It's up to the student's capability to be able to grab the opportunity or not. Till now thousands of students are placed at a very good package all around the world. Some of the alumni are working in the top 10 brands in the world. The only university in INDIA to be visited by the PRESIDENT OF INDIA, PRIME MINISTER OF INDIA, VICE PRESIDENT OF INDIA, FINANCE MINISTER OF INDIA, MAURITIUS PRESIDENT, THE DALAI LAMA, etc. And so on, these aspects really combine to create a strong profile of the students to get placed. Over 10,000 offers made in recent years by top recruiters - LPU becomes the favorite landing place for top recruiters like Cognizant Technology Solutions, Tech Mahindra, Capgemini, Amazon, Bosch Engineering, Tata Consultancy Services, Meditab, and many more! Cognizant hires over 2500+ LPU students in recent years - For Cognizant, LPU has been the destination to pick a market-ready workforce as it has selected 2500+ plus engineering students over the years. Good Luck!
