Which one should I choose? Maharaja Surajmal Institute of Technology, Delhi, or YMCA Faridabad?

AS
Arijit Singh Posted On : November 10th, 2022
Studied at YMCA University of Science and Technology

Students at the YMCA in Faridabad are excellent. Many students in the top branches have AIRs that are less than 10000. Computer Science and Mechanical Engineering students will have numerous opportunities to work for companies such as Samsung, HCL, TCS, Thoughtworks, Grape City, Suzuki, Eicher, Daikin, and others.

If you are a good student, you will get a good starting package. There are many YMCA IE students working in PSU's like BHEL, NTPC, BARC, ISRO, IES, and IAS because the stuff coming out of YMCA is excellent, and they are on par with any student studying in BITS or any NIT.

Himanshu Gupta Posted On : February 16th, 2021
B.Tech from Bundelkhand Institute Of Engineering And Technology (2018)

Having friends from IET and studying at BIET, I have enough knowledge about both the institutions. So, my suggestion will be HBTI. It will be a better choice than the others. But before selecting any college you must first learn about each college and its branches.

Firstly while choosing an institution, know where your interest lies and then opt for the desired subject. Secondly, choose the college which gives you more exposure. Make the list of all the pros and cons of the institutions and make a final decision based on it.

  • Research about every stream - Gain information about each stream the college is offering, and choose the one that strikes your interest. Also research about the future prospects of the subject, which will help you make an informed decision.
  • Examine what you require from the college - Every student has a different need from the institution they study in. This could be prospects in higher education, competitive exams like CAT, GATE, UPSC or maybe the college’s industrial, cultural and technical exposure.
  • Pointing out pros and cons of any institution is equally necessary. Talking to ex-students of that institution will provide a clearer picture of the institution. Always before committing over an institution, check your long term goals and how it will strengthen your career.

IT or Chemical Engineering from Harcourt Butler Technical University or HBTI will be a better option than other colleges. HBTI is one of the oldest engineering institutes that offers Bachelors, Masters, and Doctoral programs. The placement cell of HBIT is also good. Therefore, you can choose the HBTI for IT or Chemical Engineering. You can choose either branch in the field as per your interest and in the sector, you want to pursue your career.
