My daughter is interested to study Astronomy after her Class XII. Which are top most colleges in India which admit students without JEE. She has taken Physics, Maths & Computer Science along with Economics in Class XII. She is not studying Chemistry. Hence; the need to avoid JEE.

Ans: I missed responding to this earlier. there are several institutions like Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST), Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER), Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), University of Delhi and Pune University offer BTech and Bachelor's programs in Astronomy. I am not sure how your daughter can avoid appearing for entrance exams and still hope to get admission. In Astronomy programs, mathematics is often an essential component. Astronomy involves complex calculations, data analysis, and theoretical modeling, all of which require a solid foundation in mathematics.

Hello Sir My son is confused between three option First is MSRIT mechanical engineering second Dayanand sagar college of engineering Electronic engineering and lastly BIT mesra civil engineering. He is passionate about civil engineering but also not fully convinced due to bad placement of the particular branch. Please guide us sir
Ans: MSRIT’s Mechanical Engineering department is renowned for its robust curriculum, 90–95% placement consistency, and a faculty with extensive research credentials and over 40% holding doctorates. The institute offers modern labs, strong industry collaborations, and a vibrant alumni network, ensuring well-rounded technical and professional growth for students. Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering’s Electronics Engineering program is NBA-accredited, with modern infrastructure, research-oriented faculty, and a placement rate of about 70–75% for electronics-related branches; the college’s electronics graduates benefit from Bangalore’s tech ecosystem and active industry tie-ups. BIT Mesra’s Civil Engineering programme is NAAC-accredited with state-of-the-art labs, comprehensive exposure to modern tools, and a placement rate of 60–65% over the past three years, with many students opting for higher studies or government roles. While civil engineering placements are comparatively lower, the branch offers strong research orientation and prepares graduates for diverse opportunities in infrastructure and public sector domains.

Recommendation: If passion for civil engineering is paramount, BIT Mesra offers a solid academic foundation and research focus, but placement rates are modest. For a blend of strong placements and technical exposure, MSRIT Mechanical is the preferred choice; Dayananda Sagar Electronics is suitable for those seeking industry-driven roles in Bangalore’s technology sector. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
