PICT is the best option for CSE in Pune followed by VIT Pune. The faculty pool of PICT stands apart from other colleges making it the dream college of many. I once visited a technical project exhibition in PICT and fell in love with the innovative environment of the college.
The cutoffs are usually high for PICT and it accepts only the best crowd. So you will get an amazing experience if you choose PICT over VIT.
Here are the MH-CET 2023 cutoffs for various B.Tech courses at VIT Pune (GOPENS category)-

You must prepare hard for your MH-CET to qualify for the engineering courses at VIT Pune.
VIT Pune students get the maximum holidays in comparison to other engineering colleges in Pune.
Hope this helps you!
VIT Vellore has much much better scope than VIT Pune and is also ranked better than BUT Pune. However, the VIT Pune curriculum is much better. So if you want an in-depth knowledge of the branch you should consider VIT Pune but if you are looking for a better placement scenario, then VIT Vellore it is.
Ultimately, it’s not the college but your efforts that matter.
As a student of B.Tech ENTC at VIT Pune, I can shed some light on this branch.
ENTC is one of the best branches of VIT Pune. It is an autonomous college, so it freely decides its course curriculum. The syllabus is industry relevant, and will equip you for higher studies. The curriculum contains skill development courses which will help you during placements and projects.
The department offers honors in fields like Robotics, Embedded System Design and VLSI. These additional courses carry extra credits. Instead of assignments, the new curriculum focuses on labs and mini projects. Many students opt for industry sponsored projects.
You may intern in a foreign university through the student exchange programs run by VIT Pune. The department has several student bodies- IEEE and IETE student branch, E-EDC (Electronics Entrepreneurship Development Cell), and TRF(The Robotics Forum). They conduct workshops, seminars, industrial visits, and participate in competitions like ROBOCON, e-yantra, etc.
Placement-wise, ENTC is second to CS/IT. Very few core companies visit the campus, so most placements are in the IT sector. Many students get offers from foreign universities for their higher studies.
Overall, ENTC at VIT Pune is a good branch with a supportive faculty. You can consider this branch for your engineering studies.
Both VIT Pune and MIT Pune are equally good in terms of placements but VIT being an autonomous institute offers better exposure.
VIT is visited by many banks like Barclays, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, etc. offering packages in the range of 12 LPA-18 LPA for Comp, IT, and EnTC. Other major recruiters include Nvidia, Avaya, Oracle, MuSigma, etc, offering a decent package range from 7 LPA to 12 LPA.
Ultimately, it’s your branch and knowledge that matters because the opportunities offered by both colleges are similar.
VIT Pune has two separate departments namely ENTC(Electronics and Telecommunications) and the other is Elex (Electronics). Here are the highlights of these branches
Overall VIT is a great choice. However, you need to consider the fact that this college has no branch change faculty so you will have to choose the right branch at once.
My friend was in a similar dilemma when he was left with these three options. Based on his experience, PICT is the best option in Pune for computers. The institute provides an environment and resources suitable for working on quality projects. The academic ambiance is excellent and you will get a chance to develop yourself. Students with a good CGOA bag good offers while some open their own startups.
WCE is a decent college with a good campus and faculty pool. The students make it to average companies like TCS Infosys cognizant. It’s the best college in the Kolhapur and Solapur University area. Most students opt for a job rather than pursuing higher studies.
VIT has the added advantage of being in Pune so if you ever face this situation, choose VIT over WCE. The preference order therefore is, PICT>VIT>WCE.
Here is a detailed analysis of the aforementioned colleges based on some common aspects
Hope you make a wise choice!
As opposed to the preconceived notion, not every college in Pune is visited by the best companies. In fact, good companies can go to a great college even if it’s located in the middle of nowhere. That being said, WCE Sani is a better choice than VIT Pune in terms of the opportunities it offers.
Hope this helps you!
