It depends on what it is that you want as both are different subjects. It depends on your preference. According to my cousin who studied CSE at MNIT, if you want a challenging job and you are aiming for PSUs, then mechanical engineering may be good. But the placements of mechanical even in top colleges like IITs will be lower than their CSE counterparts.

• If you like corporate sector private jobs in the IT or software sector, then CSE at MNIT Jaipur is a very good option.
• Campus placements will be much easier with packages far higher than mechanical.
• This does not mean that CSE is an easy subject. It can be difficult especially if you do not have a coding background in your class 11th and 12th.
• For that, you need to put extra effort during your graduation.

Mechanical engineering is going to be tougher even at IITs to secure a job. However, with some struggle, hard work, and years of experience, you may land a PSU job. However, CSE is not easy but getting an initial start to your career is easier in this branch with a good starting salary.

Pick the one which suits you better according to your career choice and the career progression you want after some years.

According to my friends studying in SIRT, it is a very well reputed college in Bhopal if you are planning to pursue Engineering.

• The fee structure for the main SIRT campus is around INR 74,000 for the first year.
• If you opt for the bus service, that might cost an additional INR 12,000 per year.
• The total course fee for CSE is 2.96 lakh.
• If you are planning to apply to the college, you can go to the DTE counseling official site and sign up for registration there.

You can fill up your choices on this form and lock it. You will also come to know about the last date of filling the form for the first round by then.

If you are not looking at the branch, then you should think about going to SVNIT for Mechanical. Having friends study in both the institutes, I might be able to provide some details about them.

However, if you have decided that you would like to go for computers and if you could handle that field, IIIT Vadodara is a pretty good choice.

But many people will also advise you to not compare the two branches as they are quite different. NIT Surat is a better option facility wise but let me tell you that getting a job in the mechanical core is quite difficult. A lot of students will also opt for software fields.

Placement-wise, IIIT Vadodara is the best as you can get a lot more than what you might be looking for in Mechanical. Hope this helps.

IIIT Allahabad does not offer CSE as far as all the NITs in India are concerned, NIT Trichy is the best. The CSE department is quite well recognized too in the institute.

• If you appeared for the JEE Mains, you would need a rank between 280 to 876 at least to secure a seat here.
• NIT Trichy has a very big campus and you will have some of the best 4 years of your life here.
• If you are looking to join some extracurricular activities along with academics, NIT Trichy hosts some of the best Cultural and Technical Festivals in the country known as Festember and Pragyan. You can also participate in various competitions including inter NIT ones.
• There are some interdepartmental and inter-hostel competitions you can participate in as well.

When it comes to IIITs, these mainly focus on academic life and not many extracurricular activities. So, if you are getting admission at both these colleges, you should go with NIT Trichy.
