I got 16315 rank in kcet . I belong to 2A category. I want ECE or core CS in top colleges in Bgl.Any suggestions plz

Ans: With a KCET 2A closing rank of 16,315, realistic options for BTech in Computer Science & Engineering (Core) or Electronics & Communication Engineering in Bengaluru include both private and aided institutes where your rank falls within recent closing ranges.

BMS Institute of Technology and Management (BMSITM) admits CSE at ranks 11,545–17,478 and ECE at 16,907 for 2A, with CSE placement rates of 77% and ECE at 56% over the last three years.
JSS Academy of Technical Education (JSSATE) closed CSE at 19,766 for 2A, recording 65–85% placement rates, major recruiters being Cognizant, Accenture, Wipro, TCS and Amazon.
MVJ College of Engineering admits CSE and ECE in 2A at closing ranks near 27,296 and 31,524, respectively, with CSE placements at 78% (198/254) and ECE at 48% (74/154) in 2024.
SJB Institute of Technology offers CSE at 23,445–30,973 and ECE at 33,642, backed by 80–95% CSE placement rates and strong industry engagement.
East West Institute of Technology allows CSE up to 52,396 and ECE to 77,736, with around 80% campus placements and recruiters like Infosys, Wipro, Capgemini, TCS.
CMR Institute of Technology’s CSE (2A: 26,575–33,642) and ECE (2A: 27,337) both close beyond your rank but have admitted 2A ranks up to 27,400–33,900, with over 75% placements in core branches.

Recommendation: Opt for BMSITM or JSSATE CSE for balanced cutoffs and strong placements; choose MVJCE ECE if you prefer electronics at a reputable private campus; consider SJBIT or East West IT for CSE/ECE fallback options with robust industry ties; CMRIT can serve as an additional choice in CSE with competitive placements. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Hello sirji I got place at NIELIT Ajmer and Thapar both CSE and in NIELIT cyber security and I am from Haryana so wht should I choose?
Ans: As a student from the State of Haryana you are offered seats at NIELIT Ajmer for CSE and Cyber Security alongside CSE at Thapar University, a comprehensive evaluation reveals distinct academic and career pathways. NIELIT Ajmer’s B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering covers Internet of Things, Cyber Security, and Blockchain Technology with a 60-seat capacity, admission via JEE Main closing around 47,166 for general category, and government-funded programs under MeitY ensuring affordable fees and specialized labs. Thapar University’s CSE achieved an 83% placement rate in 2023 with 334 recruiting companies, robust T&P infrastructure, and major recruiters like Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Deloitte, and IBM. Thapar’s average package of ?11.90 LPA underscores consistent industry engagement and comprehensive training. NIELIT Ajmer Cyber Security offers targeted government-backed certification courses, dedicated placement cells, and proximity to Haryana (~322 km), while NIELIT Ajmer CSE remains nascent with limited placement history. Both institutions feature modern laboratories, libraries, and safe residential facilities supporting holistic student development.

Recommendation: Choose Thapar University CSE for its better job placement record, strong ties with companies, and good academic standing; look at NIELIT Ajmer Cyber Security for affordable, government-supported training in new security technologies; steer clear of NIELIT Ajmer CSE because it has little job placement information and is still growing. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Hello sir, I need your help in selecting college. The options i have are;- cse in sastra university tanjaore, and industrial and production engineering in nit jalandhar. Which would be better to choose for placements and industry?
Ans: Reshwanth, SASTRA University’s B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering curriculum emphasizes core programming, data structures, algorithms, operating systems and electives in AI, IoT and cybersecurity, backed by experienced faculty and smart classrooms with high-speed Wi-Fi and modern computer labs. Active MoUs with Tata Electronics, AstraZeneca and Bajaj BEST Center foster internships and industry-academia research collaborations. According to NIRF 2025, 83% of UG 4-year graduates secured placements with a median package of ?7.60 LPA and top recruiters including TCS, Amazon and Microsoft. NIT Jalandhar’s Industrial and Production Engineering offers a curriculum covering manufacturing systems, operations research, quality control and supply-chain management, delivered by a strong permanent faculty, modern workshops and CNC labs. The institute ranked 58th in NIRF engineering 2024, houses a dedicated T&P Cell and records a 77.6% placement rate with an average package of ?8.59 LPA for IPE, attracting recruiters like Amazon, Tata Steel and various PSUs. Both campuses provide robust student support, campus safety and entrepreneurship cells, but differ in specialization focus and placement consistency.

Recommendation: Considering slightly higher placement consistency and focused CSE industry tie-ups, opt for SASTRA University CSE for strong IT placements and research exposure; for core manufacturing roles with marginally higher average packages, choose NIT Jalandhar IPE. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Hello Sir My son has got CSE at III T Hyderabad and AI Hello Sir My son has got CSE at III T Hyderabad and AI at NIT Surathkal. Kindly guide what to prefer . at NIT Surathkal. Kindly guide what should he prefer .
Ans: IIIT Hyderabad’s B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering features a hands-on curriculum with foundational courses in programming, data structures, algorithms, networks, operating systems, and flexible elective tracks in AI, systems, and theory, ensuring depth and breadth in emerging areas. Its placement rates have exceeded 99% for CSE over the past three years, with an average package of ?31.98 LPA in 2025 and top recruiters including Google, Microsoft, and Amazon. The 66-acre residential campus offers state-of-the-art air-conditioned labs (1:2 PC-student ratio), 24×7 security, smart classrooms, research centres, and robust industry collaborations. NIT Surathkal’s B.Tech in Artificial Intelligence emphasizes specializations in data science, human-centred computing, cyber-physical systems, and robotics under NEP-aligned curriculum. Its AI branch achieved a 93% placement rate with an average package of ?18.26 LPA in 2023, supported by major recruiters like Google and MRPL, and leverages a fully Wi-Fi campus with modern labs, a digital library of 130,000 volumes, and extensive conference and sports facilities across 296 acres.

Recommendation:
IIIT Hyderabad CSE offers superior placement consistency, higher average packages, cutting-edge research infrastructure, and stronger industry linkages, making it the preferable choice for a purely technical trajectory, whereas NIT Surathkal AI provides focused AI specialization with solid facilities but relatively lower placement outcomes. My Suggestion: Prever IIIT-H over NIT-S. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
