Sir , My son has got admission in M.tech & Phd both in Aerospace Engineering at BIT MERSA, M.tech computational Mechanics at Mahendra Ecole Hyderabad , M.Tech ( UAV) at DIAT( DEFENCE INSTITUTE OF ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY) PUNE. Have deposited fees at all institutions. Please suggest which one to choose.
Ans: Based on your son's interest, long-term goals & the insight provided here, he can choose the most suitable option he has: Among your four confirmed admits, each program excels across accreditation, faculty strength, infrastructure, placement outcomes, and student support yet differs in research orientation, industry alignment, and career trajectory. BIT Mesra’s Aerospace PhD offers Institute Research Fellowships of ?25 000/month (first two years) rising to ?28 000/month, NBA-accredited labs in propulsion and aerodynamics, and ISRO/DRDO–funded projects under PhD?qualified mentors, positioning graduates for academic and R&D leadership with over 90% PhD placement into premier research agencies. Its two-year M.Tech. stream similarly benefits from NIRF #48 ranking, NAAC accreditation, ?11.57 LPA average M.Tech placement, and robust departmental infrastructure. DIAT Pune’s M.Tech (UAV) is NAAC-‘A’–graded NIRF #63, with a focused UAV curriculum initiated in 2016, state-of-the-art remote-sensing and avionics labs, and 89% PG placement averaging ?19.5–20 LPA, driven by DRDO, GE Aerospace, L&T and private drone firms, plus strong DRDO campus recruitment and internships. Mahindra University’s M.Tech in Computational Mechanics, NAAC A++–accredited, offers a 15-student cohort, industry-co-designed simulations and FEM/CFD labs under École Centrale faculty, and a ?9.1 LPA average placement with peaks up to ?38 LPA, emphasizing practical internships and live projects through its Indo-French partnership. Student support at all three includes dedicated placement cells, technical clubs, and mentorship; BIT and DIAT add government?sector tie-ups, while Mahindra leverages global industry networks.

Recommendation: For a research?driven career and leadership roles in space R&D, pursue the PhD at BIT Mesra; for a defense-aligned UAV specialization with top placements and DRDO engagement, choose DIAT Pune’s M.Tech (UAV); if you prefer industry-oriented computational modeling in a global academic setting, opt for Mahindra University’s M.Tech in Computational Mechanics; M.Tech at BIT is best if you later decide to pivot to government research or pursue a PhD there. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!
