This will depend on certain factors like the type of degree, the country, the location the company is based in, and other such things.
There are some companies that hire without a degree, some hire if you have a related degree from an accredited school, some will hire only graduates of known-excellent schools, etc.
Try checking beforehand the requirements of certain companies and then go for the appropriate degree.
Very few or rarely any ad agencies or media houses come to campuses of NMIMS, SIBM Pune, and SCMHRD for recruitment and final placement. The packages offered are usually below the average package of the institutions. Various marketing roles are offered to the students of these colleges and many marketing companies visit for recruitment.
The Average Package in NMIMS Mumbai is INR. 23.07 LPA and the highest salary package offered is INR. 57.65 LPA.SIBM Pune highest package stood at INR 35.05 LPA & SIBM Pune's average package stood at INR 26.77 LPA
Profiles are Regional Marketing Manager, Brand and research manager, Brand Communications and Manager, Retail Manager, Marketing Lead, etc.
Some Institutions provide specializations in this specific domain of media and mass communication, and advertisement like Symbiosis Institute of Media and Communication, Indian Institute of Mass Communication, MICA, etc.
Well, there are benefits for each branch. However, EEE offers you more chances to work in the core-field and other primary areas.
I know a few people from Bannari Amman. According to them, many students and staff from the EEE are engaged in multiple consultancy work. They also undertake AICTE, MNRE approved projects.
The lab facilities are well equipped to carry out academic works. EEE students do get placed in top MNCs and core sector companies through campus placements.
Here is a brief highlight of the recent lament for EEE at the institute.

Placement mostly depends on different aspects. When you train for interviews, you will know about it. Rest, just work hard enough and try not to get any backlogs as many companies demand students with zero to no backlogs.
According to the reviews online, BCA is considered to be better in Presidency College Bangalore than St. Xaviers College Ahmedabad.
Categories | BCA at St. Xavier’s College Ahmedabad | BCA at Presidency College Bangalore |
Course Fee | INR 47,715 | INR 4.20 lakh |
Placement Percentage | 70% | 80% |
Highest CTC | 2.28 LPA | 10 LPA |
Average CTC | 1.8 LPA | 7 LPA |
Recruiting Companies | TCS, Accenture, Oracle, HP, etc. | Accenture, HP, Oracle, Wipro, etc. |
Therefore, considering every factor, it is suggested that you choose Presidency College in Bangalore to pursue your BCA degree.
I am strongly against judging a college solely on the basis of placements. Placements should never be the major criteria for evaluating the credibility and worth of an institute. Rather, you should look for the college that has excellent records of international competitions, and which are known to offer better opportunities as a whole for personality development.
If it’s only placements you are concerned about, then please consider joining MUJ as it has a better placement scenario than UPES, and is expected to improve more so.

Eventually, the most crucial factor is how well the students avail the opportunity put forth by the university.
I have a friend who is an alumnus of IIIT Una and here is what he had to say about the placements.
IIIT Una started from NIT Hamirpur campus as its temporary campus and its first batch graduated in the year 2018 only. This first batch faced a lot of difficulties because even though they were treated equally with the NIT Hamirpur’s students for the four years academically, during the placements most of the companies did not allow IIIT Una students to appear for the placement process.
Even the placements were handled by NIT Hamirpur as IIIT Una did not have its own placement committee. But the companies were hesitant to recruit IIIT Una’s students. Many companies did not have IIIT Una in their list of colleges to visit as they have a strict pre-defined policy for the same. So most of the companies were out of bounds for IIIT Una students. However, there were some companies who did allow them and the students grabbed the opportunities.
Next year onwards, IIIT Una build its own placement committee and became independent from NIT Hamirpur for placements. So expectedly they are better than before.
Foreign Language placements depend on which language you are pursuing. Placements are best for these major European languages at MSU
Of these 3 languages, the most demanded language is German. Your job prospects depend largely on the level of knowledge you have acquired.
The best choice is to do a B2 level with fluent English and grab a good package at Amazon.
Graduating from one of the oldest IIMs certainly has its perks. Be it in terms of placements or recognition, if you get yourself into IIM Lucknow, the college will take care of most of the things. The one doubt students have is whether they should quit their high-paying job to pursue an MBA and my answer would always be yes.
Doing an MBA is never a bad idea if money is not a big constraint for you. If you search the 50 youngest Indian entrepreneurs, you would probably find that more than 30 of them are IIMs graduates. And it would not surprise me if 10-15 of these young brilliant minds were from IIM Lucknow.
Being an entrepreneur in the 21st century is not a difficult task but sustaining a business is and MBA from such a reputed college probably help you with that. The table shows you the prominent recruiters from different domains:

To be honest, it's negligible; yes, this is the word that no one wants to hear when deciding on a career path. But why should I brag if it's not true? So here's why:
First, unlike EE or mechanical, food technology is not a core branch. India is still a developing country, and we consume less processed food than people in Western countries. The vast majority of the population is vegetarian and animal products require most of the processing.
Even though we have access to processed foods in the market, we prefer to purchase local items at the local market than from a supermarket.
The same thing occurs with fruits and vegetables. Because there is no room for negotiation in the sealed product, and it is quite expensive, it has gone through a series of processing units
Food technology is not a bad field but its scope is much wider in foreign countries than in India. You can go for a PG course from some of the best colleges like CFTRIS, and develop other necessary skills. You will barely be able to get a decent job in S.L.I.E.T with only a graduate degree, but before you take food tech, think properly that you really want to do it or not.
The decision of choosing a college should be taken at an individual level. You can seek advice from others but not ask them to decide for you. Try to analyze what exactly you want from your MBA program. What is it you are seeking and how to achieve it? Once you are sure about that, college does not matter much.
Honesty both the IIMs you mentioned give an edge to each other. Still if I would have to choose one, I would go for IIM Udaipur because of its recent success stories. IIM Udaipur has seen a rise in international rankings like QS and FT. Earlier these rankings included only the top IIMs A, B and C. IIM Udaipur has proven its worth by appearing on such international rankings. It is also the youngest B-school in the “world” to be featured in the FT MiM Rankings.
IIM Udaipur is heaven for a research enthusiast. Its premium research culture is the reason for its recent rise in rankings. As far as placement is concerned, both the colleges have similar statistics. The table below has drawn a comparison between the two.
