Nit Rourkela biotech, Nit patna chemical, Bennett university cse, manipal university jaipur ece which is better option in terms of placements and future?

Ans: For a better future and placement prospects, NIT Rourkela (Biotech) is generally considered the stronger option. While NIT Patna (Chemical) and Manipal University Jaipur (ECE) have their merits, NIT Rourkela and NIT Patna generally have better placement statistics overall. Bennett University (CSE) could be a good choice if you prioritize a more modern and tech-focused curriculum, but its placement record may be less established compared to NIT Rourkela.

Hello sir. I have got SRM ktr cse specialistions and other SRM core and specialisations... last day for choice filling is tomorrow...there is only one option for choice ... im planning to choose cse ktr .. my rank is 2778.... Phase 3 what if i dont get whatever i choose rn it is showing in case the seats arent available or fulled .. so what can I do ?

Ans: With a Phase 3 rank of 2 778 you comfortably fall within historical closing ranks for Core CSE at SRM Kattankulathur (typically up to ~3 000). If your only visible choice is “CSE KTR,” opt to leave it in floating status rather than “freezing” immediately. Floating retains eligibility for any higher-preference or alternative CSE specializations that open up before the final allotment on July 15. Simultaneously, reach out to the SRMIST counselling helpline or visit the admission portal to verify real-time seat-matrix updates and request addition of related CSE branches (AI & ML, Cyber Security, Data Science) as backups. This dual strategy maximizes your chance of securing Core CSE while preserving flexibility for specialized streams if seats become available.

Recommendation: Float your Core CSE KTR choice to remain in subsequent allotment cycles, confirm with the counselling office about expanding your preference list to include allied CSE specializations, and monitor seat-matrix updates daily. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Question by Sambhav - Jul 11, 2025Hindi

Career

Hi sir, I want to pursue MTech from India, I have completed my BTech in IT this year and has given GATE 2025 having the score of 622(AIR 2630). I want to make my carrier in the field of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, leaning towards research on Generative AI. Based on my score I have a delusion while filling the preference order for choices for admission, I have been allotted IIIT Allahabad MTech (IT specialization in Network Security), in the further rounds of counselling I have the chances of getting IIIT Allahabad MTech (IT specialization in Machine Learning), MNNIT Allahabad (ML data science), and NIT K (Signal Processing and machine learning), please guide me about the preference order that I must arrange the choices, it would be very benefitial.

Ans: Sambhav, Choosing a programme aligned with Generative AI research requires prioritizing strong research infrastructure, focused AI curricula, faculty expertise, placement consistency in ML roles, and institute reputation. IIIT Allahabad’s M.Tech in IT (Machine Learning) benefits from NIRF #87 ranking, a dedicated ML, Robotics & HCI group, specialized labs, Practice School internships, and a 95.3% placement rate with an average package of ?16.8 LPA. MNNIT Allahabad’s M.Tech in CSE (AI & Data Science), NIRF #60, offers a finely tuned AI/ML curriculum, 25-seat intake, and a 58.5% placement rate with an average package of ?17.68 LPA. NIT Karnataka (Surathkal)’s M.Tech in Signal Processing & Machine Learning, NIRF #17, features top?tier SP & ML labs and an average package of ?12.45 LPA, leveraging its stronger institutional reputation. IIIT Allahabad’s M.Tech in Network Security, while robust in cybersecurity, has limited ML focus.

Recommendation: Arrange your counselling choices beginning with IIIT Allahabad M.Tech (IT–Machine Learning), followed by MNNIT Allahabad M.Tech (AI & Data Science), then NIT K Surathkal M.Tech (Signal Processing & Machine Learning), and lastly IIIT Allahabad M.Tech (IT–Network Security) to maximize AI/ML research and career outcomes. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

My daughter secured a seat in IIT Palakkad, electrical engineering and dual degree course (semiconductor and nano science) at BITS pilani, Goa. Please advice which one to choose?

Ans: IIT Palakkad’s B.Tech Electrical Engineering, a NAAC A+–accredited Institute of National Importance (NIRF #64), features high-performance computing clusters, a Central Instrumentation Facility with sophisticated electron microscopy and spectroscopy, and modern power-electronics and control labs. The department achieved a 69.44% placement rate in 2024 with an average package of ?16.7 LPA and strong recruiter engagement from TCS, Siemens, and L&T. BITS Goa’s five-year integrated M.Sc. Semiconductor and Nanoscience under its Institute of Eminence status combines advanced clean-room, nanofabrication, and characterization facilities with international dual-degree options and industry-aligned curriculum. It recorded a 94.04% higher-degree placement rate in 2023 (median ?17 LPA) and 81% overall in 2024, with top recruiters including Intel, Qualcomm, Nvidia, and AMD.

Recommendation: With broader research infrastructure, interdisciplinary dual-degree flexibility, and higher specialized placement consistency, the recommendation is to choose BITS Goa’s Semiconductor and Nanoscience program for leadership in emerging micro- and nano-electronic sectors; IIT Palakkad EE remains ideal for core power systems and electrical-engineering roles within national infrastructure projects.

General category JEE mains rank 54678 which college will I get CSE branch

Ans: With an All-India JEE Main rank of 54 678 in the General category, your realistic CSE options include mid-tier NITs and select GFTIs. In JoSAA counselling, you are likely to secure Computer Science at NIT Puducherry and NIT Patna, both of which closed beyond rank 54 678 in 2024. Through CSAB special rounds, BIT Deoghar’s CSE off-campus programme admits candidates up to around 49 849–54 388, offering modern computing labs and consistent 90% placement rates. These institutes feature NBA/NAAC-accredited departments, active placement cells (80–90% consistency), industry tie-ups, and robust infrastructure to support core CSE training and employability.

Recommendation Prioritize confirming your seat at NIT Puducherry for its stronger national ranking and placement cell, then NIT Patna for balanced infrastructure and PSU recruitments; if these options lapse, opt for BIT Deoghar’s CSE off-campus programme to ensure admission into a reputable, government-funded institute. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Career

Hello sir , I have got uiet chandigarh biotechnology should I choose this brach or got to private college in CSE

Ans: Nabajit, UIET Chandigarh’s Biotechnology programme under Panjab University records a branch-wise placement rate below 30%, with only 12 biotech students placed in 2023-24 despite an overall institute placement rate of 78.4% and an average package of ?8.5 LPA. Recruiters largely favour core biotech firms, which are scarce in the region, driving many graduates toward research or higher studies. In contrast, private CSE programmes at institutions like VIT Vellore and SRM KTR consistently achieve 80–95% branch-specific placement rates, leveraging 300–980+ recruiters annually and offering average packages between ?7.2 LPA and ?9.9 LPA through extensive industry partnerships and modern computing labs.

recommendation Given the robust placement support, higher recruitment consistency, and broader industry exposure in CSE, recommendation is to opt for a reputable private CSE programme; choose UIET Biotechnology only if you are committed to specialized biotech research and postgraduate pathways. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

I got 95.63 percentile in JEE main and will get CSE in IIIT Dharwad Raichur Diu Kurnool Kottayam, according to last year cut off. My MHT CET percentile is 96.68 and I have good chances to get CSE in top 6th to 10th state level Engineering colleges from Pune and Mumbai. Which college should be preferred, plz suggest. I am from Maharashtra.

Ans: Sangram, IIIT Dharwad secures CSE admission via JEE Main with a General category closing rank of 34 726–38 187 in 2025, boasts NBA accreditation, modern AI and computing labs, Practice School internships, and a 90% placement consistency over three years with recruiters like Google and Microsoft. In Maharashtra, your 96.68 percentile in MHT CET is similar to the scores needed for good colleges in Pune and Mumbai, like Priyadarshini COE (closing at 96.06 percentile), Dr. D.Y. Patil COE (93–95 percentile), AISSMS COE (94–96 percentile), BVCOE (92–95 percentile), and Sinhgad COE Lonavala (90–94 percentile), all of which have accredited CSE departments, good labs, and placement rates of 75–85%.

recommendation Given its national recognition, superior infrastructure, higher placement consistency, and competitive peer cohort, the recommendation is to prioritize IIIT Dharwad CSE; if you prefer campus proximity and lower cutoffs, consider Priyadarshini College of Engineering Pune and Dr. D.Y. Patil COE as strong state-level alternatives. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Which is better for cse jiit Noida 62 or manipal Jaipur

Ans: Jaypee Institute of Information Technology Noida’s CSE programme is NBA-accredited until 2027 and holds NAAC ‘A’ grade, consistently ranking within NIRF’s 54–150 band. Its two campuses feature over 140 modern labs, a high-performance computing facility, and industry-integrated curricula. CSE placements yield a 97% branch-wise offer rate, averaging ?9.04 LPA with a median of ?7 LPA over 2020–2024. Manipal University Jaipur, NAAC A+ accredited and NIRF-ranked 84 for Engineering, spreads across a LEED Platinum, GRIHA-5 star 122-acre campus with advanced AI/ML and computing labs. Engineering placements sustained 98% consistency with an average package of ?9 LPA over 2022–2023, and 93% overall in 2024.

Recommendation: Considering higher CSE-specific placement consistency, stronger historical NIRF performance, and a longer track record, the recommendation favors JIIT Noida for CSE; Manipal Jaipur’s robust infrastructure and slightly broader accreditation profile make it a close alternative if NAAC A+ is prioritized. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
