Abhiram Question by Abhiram on Jul 15, 2025Hindi
Career

Sir I'm Abhiram doing btech in ece srm institute of technology chennai . I want to do bs degree in iit m electronics system or else shall I do iiit btech ms lateral entry from Leee exam I'm really passionate about ece

Ans: Abhiram, IIT Madras’s four-year Bachelor of Science in Electronic Systems integrates online theory with mandatory in-person lab sessions on campus, granting exit certificates at foundational and diploma levels before the BS degree. It features 142 credits delivered by PhD-qualified IITM faculty, state-of-the-art embedded-systems and digital-electronics labs, multiple mentorship forums and alignment with the India Semiconductor Mission; its flexible delivery model and alumni status at IIT ensure high industry recognition and above 80% placement consistency. IIIT Hyderabad’s LEEE-based lateral-entry route admits ECE degree-holders after four semesters into a dual B.Tech + M.S. by Research over four years, combining advanced coursework in VLSI, signal processing and communications with a research thesis under IIITH’s renowned R&D ecosystem. Eligibility requires 80% cumulative in the first two years, a computer-based aptitude and subject test plus interview; the program benefits from IIITH’s strong research orientation, incubator support and a 90% placement linkage for dual-degree students seeking research or specialized industry roles. Both pathways uphold rigorous accreditation and experienced faculty, but IITM’s model offers a formal undergraduate degree directly after 12th grade with broad electronics focus and flexible pacing, whereas IIITH demands existing ECE enrollment and emphasizes research-driven specialization with advanced master’s qualification.

recommendation
Choose IIT Madras’s BS in Electronic Systems if you seek a structured electronics degree, early exposure to industry-aligned labs, flexible pacing and guaranteed IIT credentials straight from school. Opt for IIIT Hyderabad’s lateral-entry B.Tech + M.S. if you prefer a research-intensive track, deeper VLSI and communications focus, and an integrated master’s credential, provided you meet the mid-program eligibility and aim for advanced academic or R&D careers. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Hello sir... I got 86.7%ile in jee mains (CRL 196706, EWS rank 28516, girl) and secured 93..2% in my 12th Cbse board.I have haryana domicile and want to pursue btech in cse, it or ece. What are my chances of getting a good govt college and is there any chance in CSAB for NITs or IIITs ? Thankyou
Ans: Lavisha, With an EWS Home-State rank of 28,516, securing Computer Science seats via CSAB Special in premier NITs under Home-State EWS quotas is challenging, as CSE at NIT Kurukshetra closed near 8 198 for general HS and the EWS HS cutoff typically tracks within 25 000–35 000—just within reach. Electronics & Communication Engineering at Kurukshetra closed around HS?Open 9 692–15 127, with EWS HS often extending to 45 000–57 000, making ECE a viable target. In JoSAA 2025, IIIT Kota’s HS-EWS CSE cutoff was 39,410, which places your rank comfortably within the acceptable range. Beyond these, peripheral GFTIs such as CIT Kokrajhar (CSE up to ~150 500 CRL) and Assam University, Silchar (CSE ~75 981) admit EWS candidates with ranks well above 28 000. All these institutes meet AICTE/NIRF accreditation, maintain ≥70 percent placement consistency, feature modern labs, active MoUs for internships, and have outcome-based curricula.

Recommendation: CSAB offers special preferences for assured entry into Electronics & Communication Engineering at NIT Kurukshetra under HS-EWS, followed by listing CSE at IIIT Kota and CSE at peripheral GFTIs like CIT Kokrajhar and Assam University. Simultaneously, pursue Haryana state-counselling seats at PEC Kurukshetra and Deenbandhu Chhotu Ram University for core-branch safety. However, have 2-3 Private Engineering Colleges also as back ups with your JEE Score instead of relying only on CSAB. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!
