Good morning sir. I have got 15k Rank in COMEDK and by checking last year cut offs , I have chances of getting Chemical Engineering in RVCE,MSRIT and BMSCE. I have also locked seat in Electrical and Computer Engineering in Shiv Nadar University , Noida. I have not much interest in engineering so I am open to study both the branches but I just want to know which college will suit best. If I talk about my future plans , I want to either go to government jobs , defence or pursue MBA. Which college should I go for ?

Ans: Since you’re not too focused on a specific engineering branch and are looking at long-term goals like government jobs, defence, or an MBA, the college environment, exposure, and reputation matter more than the branch.
Here’s a simple comparison:
• RVCE, MSRIT, and BMSCE are top, well-established colleges in Bangalore with strong alumni networks, placement records, and brand value. Even if you take Chemical Engineering, you’ll get good peer group, campus life, and support for competitive exams or MBA prep. These colleges are also known to have many students preparing for CAT, UPSC, and defence exams, so you'll find the right atmosphere.
• Shiv Nadar University is modern, has good infrastructure and is growing fast, but still building its name. It's great for research and has a more liberal, flexible curriculum. However, it's not yet as well-recognized in terms of legacy and competitive exam environment.
If you're clear that you want a strong college name and environment to prepare for MBA, UPSC, or defence, then RVCE or BMSCE would be better. Don’t worry too much about Chemical Engineering as the branch—you can always shift focus later.
