Any good animation/BFA applied arts/ Visual arts suggestion and is VIT vellore or bharati vidyapeeth which is better?

Ans: It's great that you're exploring creative fields like animation, BFA, applied arts, or visual arts. These are growing areas with good career options in design, films, gaming, advertising, and digital media.
For Animation / Design / Visual Arts:
1. MIT Institute of Design (MITID), Pune – Excellent for animation, communication design, and visual arts.
2. Srishti Manipal Institute of Art, Design & Technology (Bangalore) – Very creative space, strong in animation and visual communication.
3. NID (National Institute of Design) – Very competitive but top-tier for all design/visual arts-related fields.
4. Whistling Woods International (Mumbai) – Good for animation, filmmaking, VFX, and media arts.
5. Symbiosis Institute of Design (SID), Pune – Strong reputation for design and animation.

For BFA / Applied Arts:
1. Sir J.J. School of Art (Mumbai) – Best for BFA/applied arts.
2. MSU Baroda – Faculty of Fine Arts – Strong traditional and applied arts programs.
3. College of Art, Delhi University – Government college with good faculty and exposure.
4. Chandigarh University (for BFA & Animation) – Upcoming and offers modern curriculum.
Between VIT and Bharati Vidyapeeth
• VIT Vellore is known more for engineering and tech courses. Their design/animation programs are still relatively new and evolving.
• Bharati Vidyapeeth (Pune) has a more established BFA and applied arts setup through its College of Fine Arts. The exposure here for visual arts is better, especially if she’s focused on fine arts, applied arts, or creative design.

Hello Sir, I was looking for visual arts/animation/BFA in applied arts colleges! Though I got MIT wpu Pune but because of fees I'm not going there. + I also gave exam for Bharati Vidyapeeth deemed University Pune and got into visual arts, is it good? And if not then which college or university will be good?
Ans: Devyani, Pursuing a BSc in Physics from top IITs or NITs is a strong academic choice, offering rigorous training in fundamental and applied sciences, access to advanced labs, and opportunities for research internships. Admission to IITs (such as Kanpur and Kharagpur) requires clearing JEE Advanced with cutoffs generally below 5,500 for general category, while NITs like Rourkela and Agartala admit through JEE Main, with closing ranks for integrated MSc Physics between 35,000 and 90,000. Placement rates for BSc Physics at IITs can be high, with median salaries reported at ?15–19 LPA, and recruiters including ISRO, DRDO, and consulting firms, but most graduates either pursue higher studies (MSc, MS, PhD) or transition into research, analytics, teaching, or government roles. Direct high-value placements after BSc are less common compared to engineering, but dual degree and minor options (such as a second major in computing or management) at IITs expand career scope. Overall, this path is ideal for those passionate about physics, research, or interdisciplinary science, and is best complemented by a mindset focused on continuous learning and readiness for competitive postgraduate exams. If your primary goal is high placement immediately after graduation, engineering or computer science may offer more direct industry access, but for scientific careers and research, a BSc in Physics from a top IIT or NIT is an excellent foundation. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir my son confuse he got IIPE. Chemical, Comdedk rank 2308 he will take bms cse, Vitee vellore cse(5yh catagory) Whos is best
Ans: IIPE’s B.Tech in Chemical Engineering is offered by an Institution of National Importance under the Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas, boasts NBA-accredited curricula, specialized petrochemical and process-engineering laboratories, faculty with industry and research experience, strong PSUs linkages with ONGC, HPCL, IOCL and GAIL, and achieved placement rates of 97.6% in 2023 and 93.8% in 2024 in core energy roles. BMS College of Engineering’s CSE programme, NAAC A++-accredited, features modern programming, AI/ML and networking labs, PhD-qualified faculty and an active placement cell, but saw CSE placement rates of 74% in 2021, 64% in 2022 and 62% in 2023. VIT-AP’s CSE arm, part of a NAAC A++ and NBA-Tier-1 IoE institute, delivers outcome-based AI, data-analytics and cybersecurity training in advanced labs, faculty with global credentials, and consistently places over 90% of CSE graduates with recruiters like Amazon, Microsoft and Deloitte.

Recommendation: Only if your son is really interested in chemical engineering, prioritize IIPE Chemical Engineering for an assured core-sector trajectory, elite accreditation, and PSU absorption pathways; choose VIT-AP CSE next for its high placement consistency, cutting-edge infrastructure, and global institute status; consider BMSCE CSE only if cohort size and institutional legacy outweigh comparatively lower recent placement rates. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
