VJTI Bombay is one of the oldest institutes in Mumbai. It offers a number of courses and has a legacy of highly placed and reputed alumni. Their course structure has undergone many transformations in recent years and they have also adopted the latest technology for IT and CS courses.

  • VJTI allows students to take up more research and experience-based projects to add to their portfolio value and the overall student experience is motivating and challenging for students to achieve new heights in their careers.

The integrated course at IIITM Gwalior has two formats: B.Tech + MBA and B.Tech + M.Tech.

  • Students can choose their specialization of whether to do an MBA or M.Tech in their 3rd year.
  • Their course structure at IIITM Gwalior is famous among engineering colleges and their placement rates are very high.

  • One potential drawback could be that an integrated program does not grant you a specific specialization. Students are only awarded an M.Tech degree. However, this factor does not affect placements and dual degree alumni get the same placement offers as mainstream master’s degree students do.
  • The student-faculty ratio in the dual degree program is also high which allows students to get personalized attention by the best research faculty on the campus.

Analyzing comparatively, VJTI has a century-old legacy to offer with hundreds of students either going for placements or mostly, further education.
