Thank you Sir. Kindly help to which is better in RVCE vs DA-IICT. Also we have spot round for IIST -ECE, please suggest if this will be a good option
Ans: As far as IIST is concerned, I had answered 2-3 times earlier. Selection by ISRO is not a guarantee as it changes its Recruitment Policy every year and also number of vacancies vary every year. Might / Might not be selected by ISRO. Here little risk is there and to try for off-campus job. Prefer RVCE.

My son got 94.5 percentile in jee mains and 18856 in jee advanced and sat score of 1470. Possible options we have are 1) NIT Warangal MnC or ECE, Rourkela/Calicut/ IIIT Delhi CSE through DASA quota 2) BITS ISA pilani ECE 3) BITSAT score of 241. Option-1 will cost tution fee of 30L, Option-2 will cost 50L. What is your advise? Also in the above DASA options which better. He has slight inclination towards ECE, but he is exploring still ECE vs CSE vs MnC which is better in DASA quota for him. Do you see taking ECE not a good idea vs taking CSE?
Ans: Venkata Sir, NIT Warangal’s Electronics & Communication Engineering achieves about 90% placement consistency, and Mathematics & Computing aligns closely with software roles, both backed by a 76% overall institute placement rate and mature alumni networks. Under DASA, annual non-CIWG tuition (≈US $8,000) plus hostel and living adds up to roughly ?30 lakh across four years at participating NITs and IIIT Delhi. NIT Rourkela’s Computer Science & Engineering places over 95% of eligible students and ECE regularly crosses 88% with 340+ recruiters visiting annually. NIT Calicut’s CSE secures a 96.77% placement rate, while ECE posts 88.59%, and the overall institute rate stays near 78%. IIIT-Delhi’s CSE maintains a 90.99% campus placement ratio with an average of 144 recruiters each year and strong research tie-ups. BITS Pilani’s International Student Admission (ISA) ECE route costs about ?50 lakh in tuition and residential fees over four years and records an 82.75% first-degree placement rate across campuses. Although BITS offers its Practice-School internships and a flexible curriculum, NIT/IIIT options deliver similar or higher placement percentages at almost half the total cost. CSE branches typically convert fastest in campus drives; however, contemporary ECE curricula at Warangal and Rourkela integrate VLSI, embedded systems and AI hardware projects, preserving ECE’s relevance for semiconductor careers.

Prioritise NIT Rourkela CSE via DASA for its >95% placements and balanced fees; next favour NIT Warangal ECE for high circuit-branch opportunities; third choose IIIT Delhi CSE for metropolitan exposure and 90%+ placements; fourth place NIT Calicut CSE; finally consider BITS Pilani ISA ECE only if brand pedigree outweighs its 50 lakh cost and somewhat lower placement ratio. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

With 93.5 percentile in MHT-CET, general condidate other state what possibility in Pune engineering college
Ans: Devendra, A 93.5 percentile in MHT-CET typically corresponds to an All-India rank around 20,000–30,000, opening assured seats in reputable Pune institutes for branches beyond the most competitive CSE/IT specializations. Options include G H Raisoni Institute of Engineering & Technology – CSE, IT, ECE and Mechanical; Sinhgad College of Engineering, Vadgaon – ECE, Civil, Mechanical and IT; Dr. D. Y. Patil College of Engineering Akurdi – CSE, IT, ECE and Civil; Pimpri Chinchwad College of Engineering & Research, Ravet – CSE, IT, ECE and Mechanical; Progressive Education Society’s Modern College of Engineering – CSE, IT, ECE and Civil; AISSMS College of Engineering – Mechanical, Civil, ECE and IT; JSPM Narhe Technical Campus – CSE, ECE, IT and Civil; MIT ADT University Pune – CSE, IT and ECE; Bharati Vidyapeeth’s College of Engineering, Lavale – CSE, ECE, IT and Mechanical; and Pune Vidyarthi Griha’s College of Engineering – Civil, Mechanical, ECE and IT.

For a blend of solid academics, accredited curricula, active industry linkages, robust labs and consistent 80–90% placement rates over three years, recommendation is to prioritise Dr. D. Y. Patil College of Engineering Akurdi for its autonomous status and broad branch offerings. As alternatives, consider Pimpri Chinchwad College of Engineering & Research for its industry partnerships or G H Raisoni Institute for its competitive placement cell and modern infrastructure. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Hello sir i am getting btech cse in XIMB and mechanical in nit rourkela which one to choose
Ans: Bengaluru’s top aerospace engineering colleges according to the National Institutional Ranking Framework are Ramaiah University of Applied Sciences (rank 65), RV College of Engineering (99), BMS College of Engineering (98), Dayananda Sagar University (126), and Jain University (157). (NIRF ranks in brackets are indicative and may vary slightly, as each college’s position can change with annual NIRF updates.) They all offer AICTE-approved programs and have modern labs for aerodynamics, propulsion, and structural mechanics. Premier Electronics & Communication Engineering institutes include RV College of Engineering, BMS College of Engineering, Bangalore Institute of Technology, MVJ College of Engineering, and Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering, each featuring NBA-accredited ECE curricula, specialized VLSI, DSP, and embedded-systems facilities, experienced doctoral faculty, active industry partnerships, and dedicated placement cells. Institutions are evaluated on robust accreditation status, faculty expertise, infrastructure and lab quality, industry-linked internships, and structured placement support, fostering a conducive learning environment for female talent. Aspiring female aerospace students gain access to niche space research, interdisciplinary STEM rigor, collaborations on national and international missions, and cross-disciplinary innovation, yet navigate intense theoretical demands, limited cohort diversity, strict safety protocols in labs, potential gender imbalances in workshop settings, and fewer entry points compared to the broader ECE spectrum. Accreditation by NBA and NAAC A+ across these universities affirms quality standards, while centralized placement cells maintain high placement consistency through recruiter drives, mentorship workshops, and pre-placement training. Campus support services, safe female housing, and dedicated welfare cells further enhance the student experience.

Recommendation: For a direct path into space research and satellite design with world-class labs, choose Aerospace Engineering at RV College of Engineering. If you prefer broader electronics and communications roles with extensive internships, higher intake cohorts and versatile career pathways, opt for ECE at RV College of Engineering in Bengaluru. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Good evening sir. DS in SNU, Chennai or Biomedical in IIT Hyderabad. Sir, Which is one best. Residence Chennai.
Ans: Jeya, Shiv Nadar University Chennai's B.Tech in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science is NAAC-accredited and taught by PhD-qualified faculty with expertise in cognitive neuroscience and machine learning. The program emphasizes practical skills through AI/ML, big-data and cloud labs, hands-on learning with Python, TensorFlow and scikit-learn, mandatory industry internships, and a dedicated placement cell achieving 80–90% placement consistency with top recruiters including Microsoft, Amazon and IBM. IIT Hyderabad's B.Tech in Biomedical Engineering, India's first such undergraduate program, offers an interdisciplinary curriculum with four verticals—bio-imaging/sensing, bio-mechanics, bio-materials and bio-intelligence/AI—delivered by renowned faculty, featuring state-of-the-art nanomedicine, 3D bioprinting and neurotechnology labs with clinical immersion modules. However, biomedical engineering placement rates remain modest at 23.5% with median packages around ?9.5 LPA compared to higher placements in core engineering branches. For Chennai residents, SNU's location offers urban connectivity, safer environs with 24/7 security, comprehensive campus facilities and proximity to India's IT hub.

Given your Chennai residence and focus on consistent placement outcomes, recommendation is SNU Chennai Data Science for its robust AI/ML curriculum, higher placement consistency and local convenience. If cutting-edge interdisciplinary biomedical research appeals with acceptance of moderate placement prospects, consider IIT Hyderabad Biomedical Engineering. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
