Hi sir, Is ms Ramaiah better than dayanand sagar university harohalli for aerospace plz reply sir
Ans: MS Ramaiah Institute of Technology’s Aerospace Engineering program at the Faculty of Engineering and Technology is NAAC A+–accredited with a NIRF rank in the 151–200 band for universities, offering a rigorous four-year curriculum developed in collaboration with industry, supported by well-equipped labs including wind tunnels and UAV testing facilities, and staffed by doctoral faculty active in research. Its autonomous Training and Placement Department secures roles for approximately 95% of aerospace graduates with recruiters such as Boeing, L&T, and Honeywell, and provides robust soft-skill workshops, mentorship, and career guidance. Dayananda Sagar University Harohalli’s B.Tech in Aerospace features NAAC A+ accreditation, a dedicated Department of Aerospace with senior faculty from IITs and NITs, modern avionics, propulsion, and CAD/CAM labs, plus research projects in UAVs and composites. It boasts a 100% placement rate in 2024 with over 450 recruiters including Capgemini and Airbus, and emphasizes student support through counselling, study circles, and incubation opportunities. Both institutions excel, but MSRIT’s stronger national ranking, industry-integrated research initiatives, and extensive placement infrastructure provide a broader platform for academic and professional growth.

RECOMMENDATION: MS Ramaiah Institute of Technology is the better choice for aerospace engineering due to its superior national ranking, interdisciplinary research collaborations, high-end facilities, and a proven 95% placement consistency, while Dayananda Sagar Harohalli remains a strong alternative for guaranteed placements and focused lab experiences. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Dear Sir/Madam, I have asked below question on July 12 2025... but no response yet .. Could you pls kindly help & suggest at the earliest - Which is better option : B.E Chemical engineering in BITS Pilani (Pilani campus) plus minor in Material Science/chemistry OR B.Tech in (a) Dyestuff and Intermediates (Speciality chemicals) or (b)Pharmaceuticals Chemistry & Technology from ICT Mumbai(Matunga). I have very clear focus of doing Phd in Organic Chemistry(either in US or Europe) and enter the corporate world of Pharmaceuticals/Agrochemicals/F&F/Speciality chemicals/Performance Chemicals.. Pls suggest at the earliest. Thanks!
Ans: Hardik, BITS Pilani’s Chemical Engineering program, established in 1964, combines a rigorous core curriculum with practice-school internships and offers a minor in Materials Science or Chemistry to deepen your understanding of advanced topics like nanochemistry and solid-state chemistry. The department emphasizes interdisciplinary research, maintains modern pilot-plant and analytical laboratories, and supports direct Ph.D. pathways with institute fellowships and global collaborations in catalysis, polymer engineering, and organic reaction engineering. Placements are robust, with over 90% B.E. Chemical graduates securing roles in core and related sectors, and Practice School guarantees two internships by the seventh semester. Institute of Chemical Technology (ICT) Mumbai’s Dyestuff & Intermediates and Pharmaceutical Chemistry & Technology branches deliver highly specialized curricula in process chemistry, formulation, and quality control, with dedicated labs for colorant synthesis or drug design and strong industry partnerships with Glenmark, ISRO, and Indian Oil. ICT Mumbai holds NAAC A++ accreditation, records median B.Tech package of ?8 LPA, and places over 90% of dyestuff graduates in R&D and production roles, while its M.Tech programs in pharmaceutical chemistry maintain over 95% placements in research and regulatory sectors. Both institutions excel in faculty expertise and facility quality but BITS Pilani’s interdisciplinary research culture, minority thesis options, and integrated Ph.D. fellowship opportunities provide a stronger foundation for an organic-chemistry doctorate, whereas ICT’s niche programs offer immediate industry alignment in specialty chemicals.

RECOMMENDATION: Prioritize BITS Pilani Chemical Engineering with a minor in Materials Science or Chemistry for its unparalleled research environment, integrated Ph.D. support, broad analytical infrastructure, and high placement consistency, then choose ICT Mumbai’s Dyestuff & Intermediates for specialized process chemistry training, and consider ICT’s Pharmaceutical Chemistry & Technology for regulatory and formulation expertise aligned with doctoral and corporate aspirations. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!
