Hi sir My son got admission in B Tech CSE with AI/ML at GITAM vizag. He also got admission BTech CSE at bangalore branch of Manipal institute. He may get admission in BTech Maths and computation at Manipal main branch. Please suggest which one to opt

Ans: Vinod Sir, GITAM Vizag’s BTech CSE (AI/ML) program offers an 80–90% placement rate, a modern curriculum, and top recruiters like TCS, Amazon, and Wipro, but its average package and national brand are below that of Manipal Institute of Technology. Manipal Bangalore’s BTech CSE is newer, with a 75% placement rate and average package around ?8.8 lakh, but lacks the legacy and recruiter diversity of the main Manipal campus. BTech Mathematics and Computing at MIT Manipal main campus stands out with a 92–98% placement rate, the average package of ?11.76 lakh, and strong opportunities in analytics, finance, software, and core computation, as well as a flexible curriculum combining advanced mathematics, statistics, and computer science. The main campus also boasts a robust alumni network, top-tier recruiters like Amazon, Bosch, and Microsoft, and a reputation for academic excellence and career versatility.

The recommendation is to opt for BTech Mathematics and Computing at MIT Manipal main campus for its superior placement outcomes, interdisciplinary career prospects, and strong industry and research exposure, followed by CSE at Manipal Bangalore, with GITAM Vizag as a backup. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
