Ans: Both SSN College of Engineering and Rajalakshmi Engineering College are reputable institutions in Chennai, but SSN is generally considered to have a slight edge in terms of overall reputation, particularly for placements and industry connections. However, both offer strong civil engineering programs.

Ans: Safely go for it. C.V. Raman Global University in Bhubaneswar has a strong placement record, with placement rates generally ranging from 70% to 95%. The university attracts a wide range of companies for recruitment, including major players like TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Cognizant, and Capgemini. The average salary packages offered are typically around 4 LPA, with some students securing higher packages, including those reaching 45 LPA.

Ans: Ajay Sir, Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum Technology’s B.Tech in Mathematics & Computing is a new National Importance programme (NIRF #80) blending deep theoretical coursework, specializations in mathematical modeling, AI and financial mathematics, and PSU-aligned recruitment (ONGC, IOCL, BPCL) (subject to eligibility criteria & recruitment policies which vary every year) with average B.Tech packages of ?9.4 LPA and the highest up to ?22 LPA. The multidisciplinary labs and project work prepare students for roles in the software and energy sectors; however, since this is a newer course, it has fewer alumni and its industry partnerships are still developing. Indian Institute of Space Science & Technology delivers focused B.Tech specializations in Aerospace and Avionics with direct ISRO absorption for 62% of graduates (CGPA ≥ 7.5) under a three-year service bond, and 38 non-ISRO placements (29% of B.Tech cohort) averaging ?10.5 LPA with top offers at ?16.6 LPA. Its state-of-the-art space-tech labs, guaranteed internships at ISRO centres and strong research orientation foster niche space-science careers but involve rural campus distance and binding service obligation.

For broad computational careers and flexible industry options, the recommendation is RGIPT Mathematics & Computing. If a direct ISRO pathway, specialized space-tech training and research immersion are priorities, the recommendation shifts to IIST Thiruvananthapuram B.Tech. (Important Note: Please be aware that absorption into ISRO is not guaranteed, as its recruitment policies may vary from year to year and are also subject to additional eligibility conditions). All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Lata, Alliance University’s B.Tech in Computer Science & Engineering at Anekal is UGC-recognized and NAAC A+-accredited, taught by PhD-qualified faculty with a 1:60 student–faculty ratio. Its 60-acre Wi-Fi campus houses 30+ ICT-enabled labs, including AI/ML, cloud and cybersecurity facilities, and a smart-class LMS system. A Career Advancement & Networking office secures over 800 recruiters annually, delivering a 93% placement consistency and 98% internship support. Strategic MoUs—such as with IBM—integrate industry trends into the curriculum and facilitate real-world projects. Scholarships up to 50% of tuition and merit-based tuition waivers address high fee concerns, while shuttle services and hostel discounts mitigate location challenges. Faculty mentorship sessions and a robust guest-lecture series counterbalance limited elective flexibility. To overcome occasional infrastructure constraints, students can leverage industry partner labs and online research collaborations.

Alliance University Anekal CSE offers strong accreditation, modern labs, robust industry integration, and high placement consistency; for a technology-focused career with financial aid options and practical exposure, the recommendation is to join Alliance University Anekal B.Tech CSE. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
