Puneet Question by Puneet on Jul 02, 2025Hindi
Career

Hello Sir, CSE in BIT Mesra or ECE in NIT Kurukshetra which is better

Ans: Puneet, BIT Mesra’s CSE program is NAAC-accredited, features strong research collaborations, and offers a modern curriculum with advanced labs, achieving an 84% placement rate in 2024 and an average package of ?17.5 LPA. Its top recruiters include Walmart Labs, Deloitte, Infosys, and Cognizant, with 40% of students placed in IT product roles. NIT Kurukshetra’s ECE program, also NBA-accredited, provides an industry-aligned curriculum, proactive technical training, and a placement rate of 82.91% in 2025, with an average package of ?14.46 LPA and top recruiters like Microsoft, Amazon, and Infineon. CSE at BIT Mesra offers broader software roles and higher placement rates, while NIT Kurukshetra ECE provides strong core electronics opportunities, global recruiter engagement, and a robust alumni network. Both institutes support higher studies and entrepreneurship, but BIT Mesra CSE has a slight edge in placement outcomes and software sector access.

Recommendation:
If you seek a career in software, analytics, or IT, choose BIT Mesra CSE for its higher placement rate and broader job profiles. For core electronics, R&D, or government roles, NIT Kurukshetra ECE is strong, but BIT Mesra CSE offers better placement consistency and industry reach overall. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

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!
