Mechatronics at Thapar or ECE at JSS Noida: Which Should I Choose for Placements?

Ans: Your son’s CSE admission at MAHE Bengaluru (Manipal Bangalore) offers centralized placements with 339+ recruiters, achieving 90–95% placement rates over the past three years and median packages around ?8.9 LPA in CSE. VIT Vellore’s B.Tech CSE with Business Systems delivers 100% placement participation, supported by 409 recruiters and an average package near ?9.9 LPA, integrating TCS collaboration and industry?aligned curriculum in data analytics and systems. MSIT Delhi’s CSE closing ranks (~2,009 General) make a 4th round seat unlikely with your son’s COMEDK rank of 12.8 K, but Thapar Derabassi CSE admits up to rank ~12,000–14,000 with 76–80% placements and strong software core recruitment. IPU counselling could yield Indraprastha CSE options with ~85% placements, though branch?wise consistency varies. Considering Delhi domicile and immediate seat security, VIT Vellore CSE-BS ensures guaranteed admission and robust placement depth, Manipal Bangalore CSE offers broader tech recruiter access and campus ecosystem, while Thapar Derabassi serves as a tertiary backup in later rounds. Recommendation: Accept VIT Vellore CSE-BS now for assured seat and strong outcomes, pursue Manipal Bangalore CSE if priority is diverse recruiter reach, and consider Thapar Derabassi CSE only if preferred branches remain unfilled in subsequent counselling. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
