Hello sir - my son got ece in vit chennai.He wants to get into IT industry. Will this degree affect his placement opportunities or he should opt an another to get placed in IT

Ans: Please note, some Employers / Recruiters prefer even ECE Students during Campus Recruitment. Try to get CS from any other Private College, if possible. If your son has no option, he can join ECE in VIT-Chennai. But it is advisable to have additional Certifications from Online Courses (related CSE / IT) like LinkedIn, Coursera, NPTEL, Internshala etc. to make himself COMPETENT among other Students at the time of Campus Recruitment Drive. All The BEST for your Son's Bright Future.

B.tech computer science and engineering with specialization in software engineering at SRM Ktr campus
Ans: B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering with specialization in Software Engineering at SRM Kattankulathur (KTR) is a four-year program with an annual intake of 180 students and a total fee of ?17 lakh. The SRM KTR campus is highly ranked (NIRF 2024: #13 for engineering), offers robust infrastructure, and provides students with access to over 1,000 recruiters, including top tech firms like Microsoft, Amazon, Infosys, and Google. Placement rates for CSE and its specializations, including Software Engineering, consistently range from 88% to 91% over the last three years, with average packages around ?7.2–7.5 LPA and highest offers exceeding ?50 LPA. The Software Engineering specialization focuses on advanced software development, project management, and industry-relevant tools, preparing graduates for roles in software design, development, and systems architecture. Students benefit from modern labs, active clubs, and internship opportunities, though faculty quality and research output receive mixed reviews. The admission process is through SRMJEEE or JEE Main, and the cutoff for CSE specializations at KTR typically extends up to 8,000–10,000 rank in Phase 2, making it moderately competitive.

recommendation: SRM KTR’s B.Tech CSE (Software Engineering) offers strong placements, industry exposure, and a specialized curriculum suited for software careers; it is a solid choice if you seek a tech-focused environment with consistent placement support and modern campus facilities. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

I got 11779 rank in phase2 exam will i get ece in srm ap
Ans: Krithika, With a SRMJEEE Phase 2 rank of 11,778, you are well within the typical cutoff range for admission to SRM University AP (Amaravati) for BTech programs. Recent cutoffs show that core branches like Computer Science and Engineering at SRM AP close around 70,000–77,000, while branches such as Electronics & Communication, Electrical, and Biotechnology close between 24,000 and 97,000, depending on the year and demand. Even for popular branches, the cutoff is significantly higher than your rank, ensuring a strong chance of admission. While CSE at SRM Kattankulathur (main campus) closes much earlier (within 10,000), SRM AP’s closing ranks are much more relaxed, and you can expect to get CSE, ECE, or allied branches comfortably. The only exception might be the most in-demand specializations within CSE, which could close at slightly lower ranks, but most core and allied engineering branches will be available to you. Ensure you participate in the counselling process and list your preferred branches in order of priority to maximize your chances.

Recommendation: With an SRMJEEE Phase 2 rank of 11,778, you are very likely to secure a seat in CSE or any core BTech branch at SRM University AP; complete the counselling process promptly and prioritize your preferred branches for the best outcome. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
