Which branch is better in hbtu, chemical or mechanical, in terms of future scope, placements, etc?
Dear Aspirant,
Harcourt Butter Technical University is historically known for generating great Chemical Engineers from it's campus year after year who are recruited by erstwhile PSUs or Public Sector Undertakings like IOCL, HPCL, BARC, BHEL and so on. Therefore, I would rather suggest you to prefer chemical over mechanical engineering. No doubt that among the core branches, mechanical engineering department is leading from the front, chemical engineering has its own charm.
The average package for mechanical engineers in HBTU is around 7.9 lakhs which is kinda decent. The average package for chemical engineering graduates from HBTU is close to 8.5 to 9 lakhs. The good thing about it is that almost 80% of the students from chemical engineering department get placed as the Institute has solid alumni base and network.
The highest package offered in the Institute through on campus placement is the computer science engineering. It's average package is around 13 to 14 lakhs with the highest package being offered on campus for cse being 19 lakhs.
Actually, the branch chose by a candidate depends a lot on the UPSEE or JEE Mains Rank earned by the candidate. In case you didn't get the branch you desired to pursue, all you need to do is to score a very good CGPA( GRADES in first two semesters in the first year) and you will have the option of changing your branch to something that you desire more.
Choose your branch wisely that suits your interests and passion.

Dear Aspirant,
According to your question and taking into consideration that you want to make a choice between chemical and mechanical in terms of scope and placements.
I would personally recommend you mechanical in hbtu as it has good placements in terms of core and it also has a wider scope than chemical
Although you need to have in depth knowledge in this branch.
