I have friends from both UIT RGPV Bhopal and MITS Gwalior, so I think I can give you some information about the institutes. Here are the placement highlights for UIT RGPV and MITS Gwalior.

Now, when it comes to colleges, I can say that they are nearly the same with no such drastic difference. So if you are to choose either of the two, then you can choose based on the distance between them and your hometown. Choose one in which you live or one that is close to your hometown. Going too far from your hometown won’t be worth your money, time, and efforts.You will eventually acknowledge this by the end of the four years of your B.tech degree.

Both institutes are reputed in Bhopal. The main difference between the two institutes is that LNCT is a private institute while UIT Bhopal is a Govt. Institute. 

One of my friends studied in LNCT and it turns out that they have very good placement. If you are willing to get into the private sector or MNCs, then surely go for it. According to the recent placement highlights the average CTC offered at the institute ranges around 3-8 LPA. However, attendance rules are quite strict at LNCT as they ask for 75% mandatorily. 

UIT, on the contrary, does not have any issues with your attendance owing to the fact that it is a government college. That can be taken as an added advantage if you are willing to prepare for some exam on the sidelines so that college attendance will not hinder your objectives. Just look out for what works best for you. 

UIT RGPV is good for Mechanical Engineering. However, things vary with each one of us.

If you want to prepare for higher studies like MS or competitive exams like the GATE or CAT, it is good because you will get a sufficient amount of time. If not, you will end up working in companies like TCS being graduated in Mechanical Engineering from UIT RGPV.

Check the following table for some brief statistics about UIT RGPV:

If you have better options you can opt accordingly. UIT is good for B. Tech in Mechanical Engineering you can pursue.

UIT RGPV is one of the premier engineering colleges in Central India for pursuing automobile engineering. It provides one of the best infrastructure and good placements for BTech courses. The institute ranks 102nd and offers attractive job opportunities of 95% placements every year.

Course structure:

The degree of automobile engineering offers various specializations in aerodynamics, emission, motorsports, etc. A fresh graduate in this field can earn an average salary of INR 2 to 6 LPA.

The table below shows the brief description of the college.

Admission:

• A minimum of 45% marks in 10+2 with physics, chemistry and mathematics as primary subjects. 
• JEE Main is necessary for the admission in B.Tech automobile engineering.
• The cutoff required is 88393 - 274034.
• The program fee required is INR 23,920.
• The institute houses a total intake of 60 students. 

Placement:

The college organises both on-campus and off-campus placement drives so that the students get placed in reputed companies. 

The top recruiting companies are Tata Motors, Honda, Ford, Mahindra, Ashok Leyland, Hyundai, Bajaj, Renault Nissan, General Motors, Maruti Suzuki, etc. 

Faculty:

The faculties of UIT RGPV are mostly friendly and supportive. They are very much cooperative and help the students in every aspect.

Facilities:-

• The hostel has a 24 hours water supply and all the basic amenities and provides an accommodation of 200 students in each hostel.
• The college has well-equipped laboratories and has a rich collection of books over different topics.

 It depends on the choice and interests of the students. Although, the placement opportunities are significantly less after pursuing automobile engineering, however, if you want to pursue masters, then you can join UIT RGPV for sure.

LNCT Bhopal is far better than UIT Bhopal in terms of placement and academics, I say this based on the conversations I had with my friends from these institutes. 

• If you are getting UIT, you should join it because it is a government college and the fee structure is lower than LNCT. It will cost around INR 94,000 while a B.E degree from LNCT will cost around 2.64 lakhs. 
• UIT Bhopal is also good in terms of placement. The average CTC offered at the institute is 4-6 LPA. But if money is not an issue, go for LNCT. 

Also, placement is not the only criterion for selecting a college as it is determined by your skills as well as your personality and attitude toward life. So, it doesn't matter which college you attend; what matters is how you utilize those four years to develop the required skill set for the profile.

RGPV is a government college and because of this all of the courses which it offers are quite good to get a well-reputed job. IT or CSE will be the best option if you want good placements. According to the recent placement highlights the average CTC offered at UIT RGPV is 3 LPA.

Now, whether you will be able to prepare for UPSC, along with your engineering degree or not, that depends on you. 

• You can go for UPSC preparation whilst you are enrolled in IT. All of the possibilities depend on how motivated you are. 
• Moreover, if you try to finish learning your engineering courses on time, you will have ample duration to sit and study for UPSC.
• Furthermore, try to be with the group of students who are also preparing for UPSC so that you can be with them and prepare well with them. Studying with your peers will help you to achieve your goals easily. 
• Also, the syllabus for IT is quite easy so, you will have time to prepare for UPSEE. 

Thus, you can prepare for UPSC if you really want to, and choosing IT will make it easy for you to lower the burden of academics. 

All the branches are good in UIT RGPV. As per some of the students, Automobiles and Petrochemical are not that good. 

The college does not have much campus life. The labs are not well developed. You should choose the branch in which you have an interest. You will only be successful if you know the branch well. Else there is no meaning in doing engineering. 

If you are looking for a good campus, then look for more colleges. However, if you are interested in CS or IT branches then you can choose UGIT as it is good here.
