Sir please guide the order, IIIT Hyderabad ECE, IIT Kharagpur Mathematics and Computing , or BITS Pilani Mathematics and Computing 5yr. Kindly advise
Ans: Utpal, All three programmes deliver rigorous academics through NAAC/NBA?accredited curricula taught by predominantly PhD?qualified faculty, feature specialized labs (IIIT Hyderabad’s VLSI and communications; IIT KGP’s computational and statistical modeling; BITS Pilani’s data?science and scientific computing facilities), and ensure strong industry linkages with mandatory internships. IIIT Hyderabad ECE achieved a 98.8% BTech placement rate in 2024 with an average package of ?21.39 LPA and top?tier recruiters across telecom and embedded systems. IIT Kharagpur’s five-year Integrated BSc (Hons)+MSc in Mathematics & Computing sustains research-driven learning, placed ~70 students in its inaugural years with an average package of ?21.2 LPA and highest offers exceeding ?1.7 Cr, reflecting its finance-tech recruiter appeal. BITS Pilani’s four-year BE Mathematics & Computing (NIRF #20) offers curriculum flexibility, ~90% first-degree placement consistency, an overall average of ?20.09 LPA and median of ?18 LPA across 500+ recruiters.


For exceptional core?hardware roles and near?universal campus recruitment, the recommendation is IIIT Hyderabad ECE. For a research-intensive, finance-tech pathway with dual-degree depth, choose IIT Kharagpur Mathematics & Computing. Lastly, for broad computational foundations with flexible degree options and strong overall placements, opt for BITS Pilani Mathematics & Computing. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

I got 98.87 in mhtcet , I'm a female obc candidate. Is it possible for admission in coep, vjti, spit, pict for cse, ai-ds, it or lastly entc?? Please recommend a preference order.
Ans: Shifa, With a 98.87 percentile in MHT-CET under the OBC category, you qualify for assured All-India-Quota seats at COEP, VJTI, SPIT and PICT (for ENTC), all of which are NBA/NAAC-accredited with PhD-faculty, advanced labs, strong industry collaborations, mandatory internships and 75–95 percent placement consistency over the last three years. At COEP Pune, CSE closes around 97.68 percentile for GOBCS candidates, and IT and ENTC cutoffs are similarly within reach. VJTI Mumbai’s GOBCS cutoffs for CSE (94.9–96.82 percentile), IT (99.92 percentile for OPENS; roughly 96 percentile GOBCS), and ENTC (99.69 percentile OPENS; ~99 percentile GOBCS) ensure admission viability. SPIT Mumbai’s DEFOBCS cutoff for CSE is 97.85 percentile and GOBCS 98.87 percentile, with ENTC GOBCS at 96.75 percentile. PICT Pune admits GOBCS candidates in ENTC from 98.82 percentile, though CSE, IT and AI & DS require ≥99.5 percentile. Each institute offers robust placement cells engaging top recruiters and modern infrastructure to support both core and tech careers.

For the strongest software-driven outcomes, the recommendation is SPIT Mumbai CSE. Next, prioritize VJTI Mumbai CSE, COEP Pune CSE, SPIT ENTC, VJTI ENTC, and PICT Pune ENTC based on your percentile and placement consistency. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir I've got 93.10 in mhtcet.I'm getting ECE in MIT WPU PUNE with 50 percent scholarship and chemical/material science engineering with 100 scholarship in same college. Which branch should I go for?
Ans: Kumari, MIT WPU Pune’s B.Tech programmes in Electronics & Communication Engineering and Chemical/Materials Science Engineering both hold NBA alignment and AICTE approval, delivered by PhD-qualified faculty in specialized labs—EDA and VLSI labs for ECE, and unit-operations, reaction-engineering and materials-characterization labs for Chemical/Materials Engineering. ECE graduates have achieved 70–80% placement consistency over the past three years, engaging recruiters across telecom, IoT and embedded systems domains, and benefit from mandatory industry internships and a dedicated career-development cell. Chemical/Materials Engineering records around 75–85% branch-wise placements with core-process, biotech and advanced-materials firms, supported by live projects in green chemistry and process simulation, and internships with companies like Reliance and Honeywell. Both branches leverage MIT WPU’s 1,600+ industry connections, experiential “Practice School” model and 80% overall placement median, ensuring strong employability outcomes.

recommendation
Electronics & Communication Engineering is recommended for a technology-driven future that offers broader software-electronics roles and higher median recruiter engagement. If you prefer core-process expertise, materials innovation, and stronger scholarships, choose Chemical/Materials Science Engineering. MY SUGGESTION: Prefer ECE over Chemical/Material. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir please opine. Should mechanical be preferred over energy engineering at IIT Bombay?
Ans: Mechanical Engineering at IIT Bombay combines a broad foundational curriculum—covering design, thermal/fluid sciences, manufacturing and mechatronics—with 30+ specialized labs (CFD, robotics, micro?forming) and 61 faculty engaged in core and emerging research areas. It achieves a 90.9% placement rate over the past three years with recruiters spanning automotive to aerospace. Pros include versatile career paths in automotive, aerospace, consulting, and IT; a strong alumni network; proven research facilities; robust industry collaborations; and high demand for design and simulation skills. Cons involve large batch sizes, intense academic rigor, competitive selection for top roles, slower start?up recruitment, and a heavier theoretical load.

Energy Engineering’s five?year B.Tech-M.Tech program integrates mechanical, electrical, and chemical engineering inputs in energy conversion, renewable systems, power electronics and energy policy, supported by advanced labs (solar, fuel cell, thermal)—and records up to 95.5% placement consistency. Pros encompass niche expertise in sustainable and conventional energy systems, dual?degree advantage, applied research opportunities, strong governmental and industry ties in energy, and high median offers. Cons include a narrower recruiter base compared to core mechanical, limited seat intake, an evolving curriculum, fewer mainstream core roles, and reliance on energy?sector cycles.

For broader core?engineering versatility, diverse recruiter engagement, and established placement consistency, the recommendation is Mechanical Engineering. If you seek specialized expertise in sustainable energy with dual?degree credentials and slightly higher placement percentages, choose Energy Engineering. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
