It is very tough to choose one out of the two as NMIMS Bangalore is getting better year after year. BIMTECH last year saw the highest and average package offered as INR 23.43 and 11.25 LPA while for NMIMS Bangalore it was INR 19.70 and 14 LPA. BIMTECH offers PGDM courses in different streams and average fees is around 12 Lakhs and of NMIMS it is 11.95 Lakhs. So, NMIMS is better than BIMTECH in case of ROI. But for other things like faculty, alumni community etc, BIMTECH is better, so choose wisely and depending upon your convenience.
My friend is currently pursuing B.Tech from NIT Raipur in the mechanical department. His honest opinion says that you should go for metallurgy at NIT Trichy. Here’s why
So, if you simply want to get into a better place then choose NIT Trichy. This is because you can get the advantage of branch sliding anyhow. However, if you don’t want to take risk of not getting the desired branch, then go for NIT Raipur.
At last, sort your preferences and know your sole aim. Because in the long run, your happiness and satisfaction are what matters the most!
SCMHRD Infrastructure Management is better. The institute is widely recognized in the industry and ranks among the top B-Schools in the country. In this Infrastructure Management course, you will get to learn in detail about infrastructure policies, contract management, project finance, and other aspects of infrastructure such as airways, roads, rails, ports, urban development, renewable energy, etc. You will get to choose project execution or project finance according to your expertise.
100% of MBA IM students get placed each year. SCMHRD average package is around INR 6-8 LPA. Fortress Financial Services, ABPS Infrastructure, Capgemini, etc. were among the major recruiters.
Making a choice between two different institutes offering two different courses is always difficult. Both NIT Durgapur and IIT BHU are reputed institutes and offers decent placement, so choose according to the branch you are interested in.
NIT Durgapur is a prestigious institute among the NITs of India. It ranks 47 among the engineering colleges in India according to the NIRF Rankings 2020. The placement statistics of 2019 at this institute revels, the CES department had a placement rate of 88.64%, and 78 students out of 88 got placed. The average CTC offered was around 9.09 LPA.
NIRF ranked IIT BHU at 11 among the engineering colleges. IIT BHU also holds a decent placement record. In 2019 campus placement a total of 49 students got placed from the Ceramic Engineering Department. The average CTC ranged around 10 LPA to 58 LPA. Besides core companies, students can also sit for software companies that come for placement in this institute which is an added advantage.
Being an IIT, IIT BHU offers certain perks but as a course, CSE has better scope than Ceramic Engineering.
My personal preference is MDI Gurgaon among all the colleges you have mentioned. This institute excels in many aspects when compared to other B Schools.
Placements: Placements at MDI Gurgaon are much better than JBIMS and SP Jain. The table below has proven the same through statistics.

Faculty: Without any doubt, MDI Gurgaon has the best faculty in the whole of India. It comprises the most learned personalities in the industry. It has around 80 nationally and internationally acclaimed faculty.
Corporate talks: Owing to its location in a metro city, MDI has a lot of corporate talks that are way ahead of normal guest lectures and add to the overall experience of the students. You may even find MD/CXO level folks from Deloitte/ColPal visiting and giving Corporate talks.
Clubs: MDI runs its own Mutual Fund Unnati where students get to learn the tactics of investing in stocks. Illumina is a rural marketing research concept where students get to learn consumer behavior first hand.
Exchange Program: The highlight of MDI Gurgaon is its exchange program is the best in the country. MDI has partnered with several foreign countries and students have to choose from them. MDI’s PGPIM program gives you a dual degree with 1 year in MDI and 1 year with ESCP Europe among various other options. Students completed their internships in European countries and secured International Job offers and settled abroad after this program.
All these major factors are more than enough to convince you against joining other B Schools if you have converted MDI Gurgaon. I have seen many students forgoing offers even from IIM Kozhikode and IIM Indore just for MDI Gurgaon.
The students' response to the IIM Kozhikode's PGP-LSM program was good. The demand of the course was also high.
But as far as the response of the industry is concerned, I think it will take a few more years to assess this. The course is new and will offer opportunities different from that of a general MBA program. Both the courses are not likely to overlap in significance for a few more years.
Being an alumnus of RNBGU, I can give you my reasons why my university is better than ICFAI Jaipur for pursuing law :
On the basis of these reasons, it can be said that RNB Global University can also be a good option with respect to ICFAI Jaipur.
Symbiosis offers a PGDBA degree and ICFAI offers an MBA degree after two years of correspondence course.
The fee structure of both the institutes is the same so you should opt for ICFAI as the degree of MBA is more valuable than PGDBA. When it comes to job opportunities, the people with MBA degrees are given priority by the MNC’s. So, from the job point of view, pursuing MBA from ICFAI is more beneficial.
ICFAI gives placement to the one opting for distance learning so you need not worry about the placements in ICFAI. Also, it is unique as it provides certificates after every semester.
So, between Symbiosis and ICFAI, ICFAI is definitely the better choice.

Both Metallurgy at NIT Jamshedpur and IT at Jadavpur University seem to be good options so the choice really depends on your preferences. I hope you aren't someone who is obsessed with tags because, in the long run, the tag of your college does not even matter. Moreover, both NIT Jamshedpur and Jadavpur University have a considerably good reputation in the industry. However, it's true that Nit Jamshedpur metallurgy placements are slightly better than JU metallurgy placements because of their favorable location. JU IT placements are decent too with many 20_ LPA offers. Here is why I will suggest you go for JU IT instead of NIT Jamshedpur Metallurgy
