Mansha Question by Mansha on Jun 27, 2025Hindi
Career

I am getting IT at igdtuw and EC at Manit Bhopal...which is better construction my hometown is bhopal

Ans: Mansha, IGDTUW IT in Delhi offers a tech-focused curriculum with a 69.3% placement rate in 2024, 125 IT students placed, and top recruiters such as Google, Microsoft, and Goldman Sachs, with a strong average package and robust industry exposure. MANIT Bhopal ECE, your hometown’s top NIT, recorded a 65% placement rate in 2023–24 with leading recruiters like Microsoft, Google, and Nvidia, and offers a strong NIT brand, proximity advantage, and access to both core electronics and software roles for those with coding skills. IGDTUW, as a women-only university, is highly regarded for IT placements and industry connections, but requires relocation. MANIT provides a large campus, strong alumni network, and national reputation, though ECE placements are lower than CSE/IT and core electronics jobs are fewer.

Recommendation: If you seek a software/IT career and are comfortable moving to Delhi, IGDTUW IT offers better placement prospects and tech exposure; if staying in Bhopal and the NIT brand are priorities, MANIT ECE is a solid choice with good core and software opportunities. 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!

I got CSE (AI/ML) in IIIT Nagpur (98.33%ile in JEE mains)...and i think i would get SPIT CSE (99.66 in MHTCET)..what should i prefer?
Ans: Hemant, IIIT Nagpur’s B.Tech in Computer Science & Engineering with AI/ML specialisation holds NAAC A++ accreditation and NBA approval, featuring state-of-the-art AI/ML, computer vision and NLP labs, a PhD-qualified faculty engaged in AICTE-QIP research programmes, and strong Tata Consultancy Services partnerships. In the 2024 placement cycle, the CSE branch recorded an 89.11% placement rate, with recruiters including Amazon, Goldman Sachs and Microsoft. Sardar Patel Institute of Technology (SPIT), an autonomous NAAC A+ institute affiliated to the University of Mumbai, offers a robust CSE curriculum supported by its Technology Business Incubator, modern programming and AI labs, and an active placement cell that has achieved a assured complete placement consistency for eligible CSE students, attracting over 100 companies annually. Both institutes maintain rigorous outcome-based pedagogy, comprehensive pre-placement training and vibrant alumni networks, differing primarily in placement consistency and urban singleton versus emerging campus environments.

Recommendation: Prioritise SPIT Mumbai CSE if assured complete placement consistency, extensive industry-incubator integration and metropolitan networking resonate with your career goals. Opt for IIIT Nagpur CSE-AI/ML if you seek an emerging institute’s specialised AI/ML research focus, national importance status and strong academic-industry collaboration in a growing tech hub. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

HelloSir; My son has the following options available at the moment. IIT Bombay Dual Engineering Btech Mtech Electrical, UIET Chandigarh CSE, NSUT Electronics and Communication Engineering, IIST ISRO Aerospace Engineering and RGIPT Petroleum Engineering. Could you please guide and rank them in order of preference. Regards
Ans: IIT Bombay’s five-year Dual Degree in Electrical Engineering (BTech+MTech) combines world-class accreditation, cutting-edge labs in power systems, signal processing and embedded hardware, PhD-level faculty mentorship and strong industry ties, achieving around 98% placement consistency across core and technology sectors over the past three years. UIET (Chandigarh) CSE, a NAAC A+-accredited programme, delivers specialized AI/ML and software-development curriculum through modern computing labs and corporate partnerships with Amazon, Google and Microsoft, yielding roughly 86.6% branch-wise placements and extensive pre-placement training. RGIPT’s BTech in Petroleum Engineering, as an Institution of National Importance, offers specialized labs for upstream and downstream processes, collaborations with ONGC and HPCL, and records a robust 85–90% placement rate in core energy firms and research organisations. NSUT’s ECE programme, NBA-accredited within a top-ranked government institute, provides advanced VLSI, communications and IoT facilities, with an average placement consistency near 75% and access to both central and campus-based recruitment drives. IIST (Thiruvananthapuram) Aerospace Engineering, under the Department of Space, features avionics-centric labs, direct ISRO research engagement and specialized faculty but sees moderate 76–78% (placements subject to annual recruitment policy and CGPA criteria & other eligibility criteria).

Recommendation Prioritise IIT Bombay Dual Degree Electrical Engineering for its unmatched brand prestige, near-universal placement consistency and premium research-industry ecosystem; next opt for UIET Chandigarh CSE for its strong 86.6% placement rate, specialized AI/ML labs and leading software recruiters; follow with RGIPT Petroleum Engineering for its national importance status, 85–90% core-sector placements and energy-industry linkages; choose NSUT ECE for its established government-institute credentials, robust communications infrastructure and solid placement pool; consider IIST Aerospace Engineering last for its unique ISRO collaborations and specialized avionics focus, acknowledging variable absorption pathways (placements subject to annual recruitment policy and CGPA criteria & other eligibility criteria). All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
