Ans: Hello ASAD,

First and foremost, thank you for getting in touch with us. I am glad to know that your son has received offers from the above mentioned universities. As an answer to your query, I would like to tell you that a prestigious and budget-friendly education in a lively Italian environment, along with a reputable academic standing and lower living expenses is offered at the University of Padua; its 3-year BSC - Information Technology may also provide a quicker path to higher education or jobs. Coming to the University of Strathclyde, top-ranked in the UK for Computer Science, this university is renowned for its linkages with industry, research possibilities, as well as outstanding student services, offering robust employment opportunities. Next, situated in a student-centric city with budget-friendly costs in comparison to other cities in the UK, Glasgow Caledonian University focuses on hands-on, industry-focused learning with impressive graduate employment rates. The National College of Ireland provides a small, contemporary campus in Dublin with robust ties with the technology sector, internships, and employment prospects in one of Europe’s key technology hotspots.

Lastly, deciding which university and country to select depends on your son’s professional objectives, ideal learning atmosphere, budget, as well as plans for the future- whether he prefers a shorter course term, robust industrial connections, global exposure, or residing in a specific nation.

My son got admission in MIT bangalore for CSE, Integrated mtech(datascience) in VIT and in Kerala keam he got 79.88 percentile. In view of above kindly advise which college and course is better
Ans: Given your son’s current options—CSE at MIT Bangalore, Integrated MTech (Data Science) at VIT, and a 79.88 percentile in KEAM—MIT Bangalore CSE stands out for its high placement rate (90–95%), strong recruiter pool (Microsoft, Amazon, Nvidia), and industry exposure in Bengaluru, the IT hub. VIT’s Integrated MTech (Data Science) is a five-year course with average placements of ?7–10 LPA and top recruiters like Microsoft and Amazon, but requires a longer commitment and is better suited for students with a clear focus on research or data science careers. With a KEAM percentile of 79.88, top Kerala government colleges like CET Trivandrum or GEC Thrissur for CSE are not accessible (CSE cutoffs are typically below 1,000–2,000 rank). MIT Bangalore’s CSE program offers a four-year path with strong placements, modern infrastructure, and the advantage of being in a major tech city, making it more flexible and industry-aligned than a five-year integrated program.

Recommendation: Choose CSE at MIT Bangalore for its shorter duration, excellent placement prospects, and prime location in Bengaluru, unless your son has a strong, specific interest in pursuing research-oriented or data science careers, in which case VIT’s Integrated MTech is a good alternative. KEAM options are less competitive given your current percentile. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

which is better option CSE in Manipal blore or SRM main campus? also at a rank of 12964 in COMEDK what colleges can we expect for CSE
Ans: Between CSE at Manipal Bangalore and SRM Main Campus, SRM offers a slightly higher placement rate (up to 95% for CSE), an average package of ?7–8 LPA, and a large recruiter base including TCS, Infosys, and Microsoft, with a long-established reputation and NAAC A++ accreditation. Manipal Bangalore’s CSE program is newer, with decent placements (60–65% in its first batch, highest package ?35 LPA), strong industry-oriented curriculum, and the advantage of being in India’s tech hub, but it lacks the established alumni network and placement consistency of SRM Main. For a COMEDK rank of 12,964, CSE in top Bangalore colleges like RVCE, BMSCE, and MSRIT is not possible, but you can get CSE in colleges like Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology (NMIT), CMR Institute of Technology, Reva University, Dayananda Sagar Academy of Technology, and Dr. Ambedkar Institute of Technology, all of which offer good placements and industry exposure.

Recommendation: Prefer CSE at SRM Main Campus for its higher placement consistency, established reputation, and broader recruiter network. If you strongly prefer Bangalore, NMIT or CMR Institute of Technology are good alternatives at your COMEDK rank, but Manipal Bangalore is best considered if you value location and emerging campus culture over placement history. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
