I have to choose between CSE (preferred branch) at MIT Manipal and chemical engineering at NIT Surathkal or BITS Pilani - Goa campus (preferred colleges). What should I choose?

Supriya Sarkar Posted On : May 29th, 2021

The best option for you is to take up an M.Sc. degree at the BITS Pilani Goa campus. The M.Sc. degrees that are offered are Maths, Physics, Economics, Biology, and Chemistry.

Category

CSE at MIT Manipal

Chemical at NIT Surathkal

Chemical at BITS Pilani

Total Fee

17.06 lakhs

5.45 lakh

19.19 lakhs

Companies Visited

Deloitte, Adani, etc.

L&T, ZS, etc.

Deloitte, TCS, Dell, etc.

Highest Package

43.31 LPA

37 LPA

45-54 LPA

Average Package

7.5 LPA

8 LPA

12 LPA

If you are confused about the stream, let me give you a clear idea.

  • In the first year, the students get to know all subjects. 
  • They get an opportunity to interact with their seniors from other streams. 
  • Eventually, they can opt for the B.E. degree after the first year ends. 
  • The most difficult to get is Computer Science as the student is required to maintain a CGPA of 8+ in their first year. 

Pros of choosing BITS:

  • Of the three options, BITS Pilani is considered to be the most reputed.
  • Foreign Universities recognize BITS, IITs and some NITs. This will gives you a slightly better chance of getting an MS to admit.
  • The network of BITS alumni is very strong. You can easily get referrals from the top firms for jobs as well as internships.

Cons 

  • If you want to opt for Chemical Engineering as your B.E. degree, a CGPA of 5 will be enough but if you want to opt for subjects like Computer Science, you will have to acquire an 8+ CGPA.

Therefore, going for BITS Pilani is concluded as the best choice. One should not decide in haste.

With 60,000 rank in mains, which NIT can be expected?

MR
Maulik Raichura Posted On : February 27th, 2023
Studied Post Graduate Diploma in Management at Lal Bahadur Shastri Institute of Management, New Delhi (Graduated 2021)

Given your rank, and presumably your General Category, it is almost impossible to get into an NIT. In case you don’t have a proper NIT in your home state, go for IITs instead.

If you are however adamant about opting for an NIT only you will have to go for Mechanical, Civil, or Chemical Engineering as your specialization. Under these, you still have chances of making it into mediocre NITs like NIT Surat, NIT Calicut and Jaipur. If you want to go for Electrical, you can choose a below-average NIT if you are okay with it.

How was your AIIMS Delhi freshers party 2021?

KS
Kartikay Sinha Posted On : October 13th, 2021
Studies at All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi (2025)

Freshers' party is the best party you will ever witness at AIIMS Delhi. It has a lot of fun, and the entire day and night are full of energy.

The program usually begins with everyone wearing formals and going in batches to watch videos of their time at AIIMS up to this point.

One of my friends is presently studying at the institute. For his Fresher’s party, the institute organized dinner which was very delicious. Following that, there was a couple of dance in which the couples were chosen at random using chits. Other activities include a ramp walk and talent round. You will be surprised to see the hidden talents of your classmates. 

In the end, a normal award ceremony will be there to announce Ms. and Mr. Freshers.

What is the average/highest salary package of MVJ College of Engineering in Bangalore? How is its reputation?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : December 15th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

MVJ College of Engineering is better than most of the colleges in Bangalore when it comes to academics, barring the top 4-5 colleges. 

As far as placements are concerned, it is a subjective matter. Everything depends on an individual’s qualifications. Companies like Accenture, Capgemini, IBM, Airtel, Godrej and Infosys visit the campus with job offers during the placement season.

Instead of worrying about the placement statistics, I would recommend you spend these four years of B.Tech at MVJCE Bangalore in acquiring knowledge and developing your skill set.
