Sir, I am Graduated in Electronics and Computer Engineering(2016). From 2016-2020 prepared for competitive exams. No success. Got married. Being a women, faced lot of family burdens due to which went into depression. Learnt DevOps in 2021, due to career gap of 6years none of the companies are shortlisting my resume. Pls suggest me so that I become financially independent.

Ans: Yes, I understood your point and situation. No worries dear. I cured many cases like yours. Since you are from circuit branch ( e.g. E&TC, Instrumentation, Computer etc etc) your state of the art knowledge is essential, because it is not like Civil/Mechanical Engg. The present day need is AI & Machine Learning. Please go for some good certification course of AI& ML from some good institute which is having collaboration with some reputed IIT. Before joining the course please practise CODING by seeing the YOU TUBE videos for two-three months. It will help you to complete the certificate course more successfully. For any difficulty contact me. I will be always there for you. All the best. MAY GOD BLESS YOU. Professor.................:)

Ict ioc is best or nit manipur/mizoram civil is best . I confused what should I do .
Ans: The ICT–IOCL Odisha Campus offers a unique five-year integrated M.Tech in Chemical Engineering with minors in six disciplines, blending nine trimesters of on-campus coursework with six trimesters of paid industrial internships, led by PhD-qualified faculty in state-of-the-art labs and backed by NAAC A++ accreditation and merit-cum-means scholarships. In contrast, National Institute of Technology Manipur’s four-year B.Tech in Civil Engineering admits 38 students per year, is NIRF-ranked 101–150, features foundational structural, geotechnical, and environmental labs under government funding, and achieved a median UG package of ?8.75 LPA with 147 of 161 graduates placed in 2024. NIT Mizoram’s B.Tech Civil cohort (34 seats) recorded a 100% placement rate in 2024 with a median package of ?6 LPA and recruiters such as Adobe and Tech Mahindra, all within its Institute of National Importance framework and burgeoning permanent campus near Aizawl Airport.

Recommendation: If your goal is industry-immersive chemical engineering training with guaranteed stipends and entrepreneurial focus, choose ICT–IOC Bhubaneswar; for a core civil engineering pathway with strong government support, higher civil-branch placements and national-level credentials, opt for NIT Mizoram, with NIT Manipur as a solid fallback. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

My son has secured a seat in the AI & Data Science course at IIIT Kota through JoSAA counselling. Kindly guide us regarding the scope and future opportunities in AI & DS under current circumstances. Also, should we still consider participating in CSAB rounds, or is it advisable to retain this seat?
Ans: The B.Tech in Artificial Intelligence & Data Engineering at IIIT Kota was established in the 2024–25 academic session with an annual intake of 60 students, offering a curriculum that blends foundational AI, data science, and hands-on project work under PhD-qualified faculty. As a newly launched branch, the first cohort has not yet graduated, so there are no branch-specific placement records for 2024 or 2025. However, IIIT Kota’s established CSE and ECE branches have reported strong placement statistics in 2024, with an overall placement rate of 74% and average packages above ?12 LPA, indicating a positive recruitment environment for computing disciplines. The AI & DS program is designed to meet current industry demand for data scientists, AI engineers, and analytics professionals, leveraging the institute’s growing partnerships with leading tech firms and its status as an Institute of National Importance. Participation in CSAB rounds may be considered if you are targeting higher-ranked NITs, IIITs, or core CSE branches, but for most candidates, the current AI & DS seat at IIIT Kota offers a robust platform for future opportunities in AI, machine learning, and data analytics.

Recommendation: Retain the AI & Data Science seat at IIIT Kota for its modern curriculum, strong institutional reputation, and emerging placement ecosystem; participate in CSAB only if you have a realistic chance at a core CSE seat in a higher-ranked NIT or IIIT, otherwise focus on maximizing opportunities in the current program through internships and research projects. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
