Sir, Mechatronics in MPSTME NMIMS or Mechanical in VJTI/DJ Sanghvi which will have better placement after Btech in core company? Does it matter from which college you did Btech while taking admission for Mtech? I may pursue for Masters in Robotics in future.

Ans: Rahul, For core company placements after BTech, Mechanical Engineering at VJTI or DJ Sanghvi generally offers better outcomes than Mechatronics at MPSTME NMIMS, as VJTI boasts a 90%+ placement rate for core branches with top recruiters like L&T, Tata Motors, and Siemens, and DJ Sanghvi reports 95% placements in Mechanical, though more students shift to IT roles. MPSTME’s Mechatronics program is industry-oriented, with strong exposure to robotics and automation, and a growing recruiter base, but core manufacturing and robotics companies still favor traditional mechanical backgrounds for entry-level roles. For MTech admissions, the BTech college matters less than your GATE score and academic performance; top institutes like IISc and IITs accept candidates from all recognized colleges, provided eligibility and entrance scores are met. If you plan to pursue Masters in Robotics, both streams are valid, but Mechanical from VJTI/DJ Sanghvi provides a stronger core foundation and broader eligibility for top MTech/Robotics programs in India and abroad.

RECOMMENDATION: Choose Mechanical Engineering at VJTI or DJ Sanghvi for superior core company placements, a strong alumni network, and broader MTech/Robotics eligibility. Opt for Mechatronics at MPSTME only if you are certain about a robotics/automation career and value interdisciplinary exposure over traditional core engineering roles. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
