Hi. My son is getting VJTI B Tech IT and also BITS Hyderabad campus MSc Chem + B Tech (Dual Degree) What choice should we go for ?
Ans: VJTI Mumbai’s B.Tech in Information Technology operates within a historic, NAAC A-accredited government institute, supported by experienced faculty, modern software and networking labs, an 82 percent overall placement rate (85 percent for IT) over the past three years and strong industry partnerships with leading IT firms. It requires 10+2 with PCM and English and selection via MHT-CET cutoff and counselling. In contrast, BITS Hyderabad’s five-year Integrated M.Sc.(Hons.) in Chemistry + B.E. programme admits students through BITSAT (75 percent aggregate in 10+2 and minimum 60 percent in PCM), immerses them in advanced chemistry and engineering curricula, and allows conversion to the dual degree after the first year based on top-tier CGPA performance; Group C admits may pursue any dual degree within specified limits. Graduates benefit from practice school training, interdisciplinary research projects and placement consistency around 80 percent in chemical and engineering streams. Risks include rigorous workload during dual-degree years, competitive CGPA criteria for continuation and potential difficulty shifting back if performance thresholds are not met.

Recommendation:
For a clear, focused start in a high-placement IT domain with defined eligibility and minimal academic risk, choose VJTI B.Tech IT. Opt for BITS Hyderabad M.Sc. Chemistry + B.Tech if your son seeks a research-integrated, multidisciplinary pathway and excels under high academic rigor with dual-degree ambitions. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
