For b.tech priority should be institute or stream. Like my have chances of getting electrical/ mechincal/ chemical in DTU OR NSUT. CSE/IT in Guru Govind singh indraprastha University. He wants to go in for coding. In some NIT/IIIT he can get ECE also. We r from Delhi. Pl advise

Ans: Samriti Madam, if your son wants to go for coding, better to avoid other Branches like Electronics, Electrical & Mechanical. Better to go for CSE with GGSIPU. Whatever Institute / University & Branch your Son chooses, he should keep upgrading his skills from his 1st year itself till his Campus Placement during his last year, from NPTEL, Internshala etc. and / or any other online platforms, recommended by his College Faculties, to be COMPETENT among other Students.

All The BEST for your Son’s Bright Future, Madam.

My son koushik got B.TECH IN IISER BHOPAL with OBC Category rank of 740 and also got B.TECH in IIIT Dharwad with the same branch CSE in CSAB 3rd round(OBC category rank 25500). MY Son interested towards higher education M.Tech after B.Tech. Which institute may be given priority.
Ans: Bharath Sir, IISER Bhopal's B.Tech program offers a unique interdisciplinary curriculum combining engineering with foundational science education, delivered by renowned faculty with international research experience and supported by advanced laboratories and research infrastructure. The institute maintains exceptional standards for higher education preparation, with B.Tech graduates from IISERs exempted from GATE requirements for M.Tech admissions in top institutions, providing direct pathways to IITs, IISc, and premier research institutes. IIIT Dharwad's CSE program achieves strong placement rates of 82% with competitive packages and industry partnerships, emphasizing practical software development and emerging technologies. While both institutions maintain experienced faculty, modern infrastructure, active student support systems, and robust placement mechanisms, IISER Bhopal's research-oriented curriculum, interdisciplinary exposure, and exemption from GATE requirements significantly advantage students pursuing M.Tech programs. The institute's focus on integrating theoretical knowledge with hands-on research experience, coupled with access to cutting-edge facilities and international collaboration opportunities, creates an ideal foundation for advanced studies. Additionally, IISER's status as an Institute of National Importance and its emphasis on scientific inquiry align perfectly with your son's M.Tech aspirations, offering superior preparation for both competitive examinations and direct admission pathways to premier institutions.

Recommendation: Choose IISER Bhopal B.Tech for your son's M.Tech aspirations, as it provides research exposure, interdisciplinary learning, GATE exemption benefits, and superior preparation for advanced studies at top institutions. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Sir My son has completed his B.Com Honours from SASTRA during the year 2025. He is interested in pursuing MA from Madras School of Economics in this year 2026. He is currently enrolled in the Executive course of Company Secretary from ICSI. I wanted to know whether pursuing the course in Madras School of Economics is worthwhile and also the likelihood of getting good placements after successful completion of the course. Please provide your advice and suggestions which would help me in taking a decision. Thanks and Regards V NARASIMHAN
Ans: Narasimhan Sir, according to today’s (13th April 2026) Times of India (Education Times) advertisement, Madras School of Economics offers multiple programmes such as a 5?year Integrated MA, MA programmes in five specialisations, MBA, MSc in Data Science, and even PhD. Now, regarding your son’s wish to pursue an MA and also keeping in mind that he is already pursuing the ICSI Executive Course, it is important to know whether he has decided which one of the five MA specialisations—Actuarial Economics, Applied Quantitative Finance, Environmental Economics, Financial Economics, or General Economics—he wants to choose and why. However, since he has already joined the ICSI Executive, it is advisable to go for the MA in Financial Economics, because its core courses and electives in financial markets, asset pricing, corporate finance, risk, and regulation directly complement the CS Executive papers on Corporate Accounting, Financial Management, Capital Markets, and Securities Laws. This combination is very helpful for careers in corporate finance, investment banking, and financial?compliance advisory, where both domain?specific economics knowledge and legal?compliance skills are highly valued. At the same time, your son must be sure and confident that he can comfortably manage the workload of both ICSI and the MA in Financial Economics. As far as placements are concerned, all five MA specialisations—General Economics, Financial Economics, Applied Quantitative Finance, Actuarial Economics, and Environmental Economics—have broadly similar placement outcomes, but Financial Economics and Applied Quantitative Finance usually lean more towards higher?paying jobs in finance and analytics, while Environmental Economics and General Economics often lead more towards policy, research, consulting, and data?heavy roles. It should also be noted that success in placements does not depend only on the specialisation, but also on the student’s skill upgradation, soft skills, a strong LinkedIn profile, and effective networking strategies. ALL the BEST for Your Son's Prosperous Future!
