Sir good morning My son completed in 3rd year in AI ML course in Reva university Bangalore. Give suggestions for developing skills in AL ML course . If any to be studied diploma courses in reputed IITs or IIITs or any Universities .
Ans: As a third-year AI/ML student aiming for strong campus and off-campus placement readiness, targeted certifications and diplomas can bridge skill gaps in programming, algorithms, and domain specializations. Leading options include the six-month Professional Certificate in Generative AI and Machine Learning by E&ICT Academy, IIT Kanpur, and the six-month AI and Machine Learning Certification by E&ICT Centre, IIT Kharagpur, featuring PhD-led faculty, integrated labs, and hands-on projects in deep learning and NLP; the 11-month Executive Post Graduate Diploma in Data Science from IIIT Bangalore provides specializations in NLP, Deep Learning, Data Engineering, BI Analytics, dual alumni status, and dedicated career assistance with mock interviews and capstone projects; the Certificate Programme in Machine Learning at IIT Roorkee spans supervised and unsupervised learning, neural networks, computer vision, and MLOps in a flexible schedule; IIT Madras’ online M.Tech in AI marries evening classes with practical lab-based projects applicable to industry contexts; and IIT Kanpur’s Python for AI ML certificate sharpens coding expertise. These programs are NBA/NIRF-recognized, industry-aligned, and backed by active placement cells offering placement assistance and internship pipelines. Complement with AWS and GCP ML certifications, Kaggle projects, AI hackathons, and soft-skills workshops to build a strong profile for placements.

Recommendation: Enrol in a six-month PhD-led certification (IIT Kanpur Generative AI or IIIT Bangalore Data Science), complete core modules in Python, ML, DL, NLP, MLOps, and finish two capstone projects on GitHub by December. Pursue AWS/GCP ML certificates, join two AI hackathons, and attend university soft-skills and mock-interview workshops. Update your resume and LinkedIn weekly, engage alumni mentors biweekly, and apply to 30 on-campus and 20 off-campus AI roles by April next year. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Hi sir good morning My daughter scored 92.294 %tile in jee mains and appeared in JEE advanced in OBC NCL .The home state is Chandigarh and XII CBSE score is 95.2%.pls suggest any good NIT,GFTI or private college, or should she consider a drop?
Ans: Sabita Madam, Before answering your question, my suggestion regarding 'a drop'. Please AVOID taking a drop to the extent possible. With a 94 percentile in MHT-CET and EWS category status, your daughter has excellent prospects for securing admission to quality engineering colleges offering CSE, IT, and ECE programs. The 94 percentile translates to an approximate rank of 3,500–8,000, well within the cutoff ranges for numerous reputable institutions. EWS candidates benefit from 10% seat reservation with cutoffs typically 2–4 marks below general category requirements. Maharashtra's EWS quota sees 35–50% seats remaining vacant annually, improving admission chances. Government colleges like COEP Pune require 99+ percentile for CSE but offer ECE and other branches at lower cutoffs, while VJTI Mumbai and PICT Pune have competitive thresholds around 98–99 percentile. Private colleges provide broader opportunities: MIT WPU (94–96.5% cutoff), PCCOE Pune (91–94%), VIT Pune, Ramrao Adik Institute of Technology, Vishwakarma Institute of Information Technology, Sinhgad College of Engineering, AISSMS College of Engineering, Dr. D.Y. Patil College of Engineering, and Symbiosis Institute of Technology all welcome students at her percentile level with strong placement records of 80–95% over recent years. These institutions feature NAAC/NBA accreditations, experienced faculty, modern labs, industry partnerships, and comprehensive placement cells securing positions with top recruiters including Amazon, TCS, Infosys, Microsoft, and Cognizant.

Final Recommendation/Order of Preference: Prioritize PCCOE Pune or MIT WPU for balanced academics and placements, followed by VIT Pune for strong industry connections. VIIT Pune and Ramrao Adik Institute offer excellent CSE/IT prospects with 80–90% placements. Sinhgad College of Engineering and AISSMS provide solid alternatives with established track records. For IT/ECE, consider Symbiosis Institute of Technology and Dr. D.Y. Patil College. Monitor government college cutoffs in later rounds while securing confirmed seats at preferred private institutions. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
