How is IET Lucknow, KNIT Sultanpur & BIET Jhansi in terms of placement for MCA students?
The placement scenario for MCA is not considered as good as it is for B.Tech students in KNIT Sultanpur. The thing that matters the most is your consistency in working during MCA.
My brother has recently graduated from IET and based on his experience, I can suggest you a few points:
- In IET Lucknow, MCA student sits with B.Tech students for the placements. It becomes important to see how better you are when compared to the skills of B.Tech students.
- As compared to the other two, IET Lucknow is the best as it had more exposure because of its city. The city gives you better options for training.
- It is near AKTU, so if there are any new updates, you get the information early. Of all the colleges affiliated with AKTU, IET is ranked No. 1. It is an autonomous college as well.
It is important to acknowledge that MCA placements are in no comparison with that of B.Tech but still it gives better exposure as compared to any Government College. BIET Jhansi does not offer MCA, so there’s no comparison with it.
Does NIT Surathkal have a good placement record for civil engineers?
There is very little demand for civil engineers here in the Indian markets. Unfortunately, not many skilled civil engineers are output from any Indian engineering college.
- The curriculum of all engineering colleges hasn’t been updated for over a decade and it is not at all in sync with the current needs and requirements of the civil industry.
- Most of the civil engineers who pass out from the reputed colleges across India are either offered computer programming jobs with a package of 5-10 LPA on an average or become managers in the industry.
- The reality of civil engineering in India is quite a sad sight to look at and the students are paying with their twisted career choices for it.
There is no doubt to the fact that NIT Surathkal is an impressive institute with reputed faculty guiding the students, with an exception for the branch of civil engineering. Either the students are not able to develop sufficient interest in the same or the curriculum is not such that invokes interest or keeps them motivated enough. Moreover, it is also not in accordance with the industrial standards and needs.

Is there any chance of jobs in MNCs or other private companies for the freshers who had completed their B.Tech degrees from open universities like YCMOU or KSOU without any experience?
Securing a job after completing a B.Tech degree from open universities can depend on a lot of things. If it is only based on the degree it could be difficult.
If you want to go for MNCs you have to start by joining smaller organizations and start-ups. Here you can have the chance of getting hired based on your knowledge and skills. Try to improve your writing skills, communication skills, aptitude skills, etc.
Practice mock interviews, get familiar with all the current trends and topics. Prepare for questions like “Where do you see yourself in 5 years?” etc.
Improve your domain knowledge, practical knowledge, keep yourself updated and familiar with the recent trends in interviews. Learn from your peers and how they approach the interviews. More practice will increase your chances of getting a job.

What is the salary of mining engineering if we do that at NIT Surathkal?
I am listing down the various possibilities for mining students at NIT Surathkal-
- PSUs- Companies like Coal India provide jobs to mining engineers at a decent package of 10-12 LPA.
- Non-core- Companies like Goldman Sachs are open to students of almost all engineering branches. If you are placed in a good analytics or IT company, you can expect a package of around 10-15 LPA. You may earn an even better package if a good software brand hires you based on excellent coding skills.
- Private Core companies- In these, you can expect around 4-8 LPA.
Be sure to maintain a decent CGPA, so that you can sit for maximum companies. You may also be placed through mass recruitment in which case, your package will be around 3.5 LPA at most. Sometimes startups offer jobs to candidates and withdraw them at a later stage.
I would recommend you choose the branch of your interest, instead of just looking at the placement packages. Try to enquire more about the career prospects of each branch, and the research prospects as well. Make an informed decision after carefully considering all the factors.
