  • For students who like the civil engineering, ecology and sustainability and mechanical engineering focus of this school but want another option nearby, National Institute of Technology Arunachal Pradesh fits well: it runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes, and has almost the same size, at about 700 students.
  • Also strong in civil engineering, ecology and sustainability and mechanical engineering, National Institute of Technology Mizoram makes a sensible second look at home; it is also a public institution, and runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes.
  • National Institute of Technology Meghalaya overlaps with this institution on civil engineering, mechanical engineering and electrical and electronics, so the two are easy to compare, and it is also a public institution, and teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral.
  • Indian Institute of Technology Jammu overlaps with this institution on civil engineering, mechanical engineering and electrical and electronics, so the two are easy to compare, and it covers materials as well, and is slightly larger, at about 1,000 students against roughly 700 here.

Most Similar Schools Abroad

  • In Denmark, Technical University of Denmark teaches much the same core subjects, civil engineering, ecology and sustainability and mechanical engineering, and it is also a public institution, and runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes.
  • École Nationale Supérieure d'Architecture de Nantes brings a France setting to the same core fields, civil engineering, ecology and sustainability and AI and machine learning, and it covers marine science and fluid dynamics as well, and is slightly larger, at about 900 students against roughly 700 here.
  • The closest overseas parallel on civil engineering, ecology and sustainability and mechanical engineering is Volga State Technological University, located in Russia; it is far larger, with about 9,000 students against roughly 700 here, and is also a public institution.
  • Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University in Russia is the nearest foreign match on civil engineering, mechanical engineering and electrical and electronics; it runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes, and covers physics and materials as well.
  • Military Institute of Engineering offers an international parallel to this school, with mechanical engineering, electrical and electronics and engineering as common ground; it is slightly larger, at about 1,000 students against roughly 700 here, and is also a public institution.

*our own picks (our criteria: a mix between domains, diploma delivered, reputation and size), but obviously too many criteria for an apple-to-apple ranking.

*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”,  “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.

 

**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale: 

  1. known locally
  2. known locally and internationally
  3. is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
  4. is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications

***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …). Refer to all the links provided to have accurate and updated numbers.
