Hello sir my daughter is getting cse with information security in vit vellore and cse with cyber security in amrita coimbatore. Both are of the same fees. Her concern is that vit is very crowded and amrita is not very well known what is your opinion?

Ans: She is partially correct. VIT is crowded but one of the reputed. Amrita-C is very well-known & 30-year old with good NIRF Ranking. You have NOT mentioned you are from which State? Might be, your daughter does not like the locations of both. If she has got any other options, please follow-me up to answer. All the BEST for Your Daughter's Bright Future.

Maharaja Agrasen Institute of Technology’s B.Tech in Electrical & Electronics Engineering is AICTE-approved, NBA-accredited, and NAAC ‘A’-graded under GGSIPU.

Hi Sir for my son which should we choose VIT vellore Electrical and computer science engineering or MUJ Computer science engineering
Ans: Seema Madam, VIT Vellore’s four-year B.Tech in Electrical and Computer Science Engineering is offered by a NAAC A++ and NBA-accredited deemed university ranked 10th among Indian universities by NIRF 2024. Its faculty are predominantly PhD-qualified, supported by state-of-the-art labs in power electronics, digital systems, AI/ML, and the Samsung SEED data-science facility. Over 80–90% of VIT UG cohorts secure placements, with top recruiters including Amazon, Intel, and Cisco. Manipal University Jaipur’s NAAC A+ and NBA-accredited B.Tech CSE program, NIRF #64 in engineering, features 120 PhD faculty, 12 computing and cybersecurity labs, and specializations in AI, data science, and IoT. Its Career Development Cell achieved a 93% placement rate in 2024, with 1,142 offers and 62% above ?8 LPA. Both institutes maintain strong industry collaborations, mandatory internships, and vibrant campus cultures, but VIT offers broader multidisciplinary infrastructure and an IoE designation, while MUJ delivers slightly higher placement consistency and focused software-engineering exposure.

Final Recommendation:
For an elite multidisciplinary environment with cutting-edge ECE and computing research labs within a top-ranked private university, recommendation is VIT Vellore E&CSE. If your priority is specialized software and data-science training, consistent 93% CSE placements, and a vibrant campus life closer to Delhi, choose MUJ CSE. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir pls suggest some colleges for btech in vse at 2 lakh jee mains rank general category
Ans: Typing error in your question (vse?). I assume it is 'CSE'. With a 2 lakh JEE Main rank (general category), you can secure BTech CSE admission in several reputed private and government colleges that accept higher closing ranks. Options include NIT Mizoram, NIT Arunachal Pradesh, NIT Sikkim, NIT Puducherry, NIT Goa, Assam University, Punjab Engineering College (PEC), PSG College of Technology, Symbiosis Institute of Technology Pune, Jaypee Institute of Information Technology Noida, Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology Patiala, LNM Institute of Information Technology Jaipur, BIT Mesra, Pune Institute of Computer Technology, and Chitkara University. These institutes are AICTE/UGC approved, offer NBA/NAAC-accredited CSE programs, have strong industry tie-ups, and maintain 70–90% placement rates in CSE over the last three years. Most provide modern labs, experienced faculty, and active career cells. While top NITs and IIITs may be out of reach, these colleges offer solid infrastructure, good peer groups, and reliable placement outcomes for CSE aspirants.

recommendation:
Prioritize NIT Mizoram, NIT Arunachal Pradesh, NIT Sikkim, and NIT Puducherry for government options with national recognition. For private options, target Thapar, LNMIIT Jaipur, Jaypee Noida, BIT Mesra, and Symbiosis Pune for strong CSE placements and industry exposure. Consider Chitkara, PICT Pune, and PSG Tech for additional choices. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
