Admission Process:

Anna University and MIT Chennai:

• Students who obtained a minimum of 50% in PCM in 10+2 can apply for Tamil Nadu Engineering Admissions(TNEA) for undergraduate admissions at MIT Chennai and Anna University. For the B.Arch program, students will have to sit for the NATA entrance exam and must obtain a minimum of 50% in PCM in 10+2

• Bachelor’s students with 50% marks can apply for M.Tech programs, given that they have a relevant TANCET/GATE score and is required by most universities.

College of Engineering Pune: Students with a minimum of 50% in 10+2 can sit for the MH-CET entrance exam, which will enable them to apply for an array of B.E/B.Tech programs at COEP.

Jadavpur University: For admissions into the B.Tech and B.Pharm program of Jadavpur University, students must obtain a minimum of 45% in 10+2 with a valid rank in WBJEE entrance test.

Cut off:

MIT Chennai:

• In the year 2019, the MIT Chennai cut-off for B.E in Computer Engineering was 516 and for B.E in Automobile Engineering was 1312.

• The lowest cut-off at MIT Chennai was recorded in B.E in Rubber and Plastic Technology and B.E in Automobile Engineering with 9812 and 6192 respectively.

Jadavpur University:

• In the year 2019, the WBJEE cut-off for Computer Science and Engineering ranged from 49-81, and Information Technology was 104-159 in Round 1.

College of Engineering Pune:

• Among all the courses in the College of Engineering Pune, the highest cut-off has been recorded in B.Tech in Computer Engineering with a cut-off of 134 in the year 2019.

Admission to the aforementioned universities can be a cakewalk if one qualifies the relevant entrance exams with standard scores. In regard to cut-off marks, universities display wide variation in their cut-off between consecutive years.

Chemical Engineering and computer science are two completely different subjects, even though they belong to one broad stream of Engineering. The student needs to decide first your stream of specialization, which course they are interested to study. If your answer is chemical engineering then ICT Mumbai is the best option. 

There should be three solid reasons behind a student selecting ICT Mumbai, which are:

• The quality of education, faculty, and placements is on par with the IITs. The ICT Mumbai campus is known for its lively culture along with the organization of multiple technical and cultural fests. 
• A student will enjoy an out-and-out exposure, gaining theoretical knowledge in class and simultaneously putting them into practice during their practical ventures. 
• The placement rate in ICT Mumbai is good, the only set-back is that it is restricted to chemical engineering only.

If a student has decided to study chemical engineering and his following plans are along the lines of the reasons mentioned above, then ICT Mumbai is his/her place to be.

ICT Mumbai is only best in chemical engineering, not computer science. Similarly, COEP is the best for computer science and not chemical engineering. Therefore, the student should get a surety on the subject they want to pursue and then go to the college that is best for that particular stream.

The College of Engineering Pune is among the best institutes in Pune. The architecture dates back to 1854. The campus was planned by British-American architect and planner Christopher Charles Benninger. The architecture is such that you will feel like you are in Hogwarts, especially in the main building on the south campus. 

Campus:

• The College of Engineering, Pune campus has a separate playground, and the hostel complex can accommodate approximately 3,000 to 4,000 candidates. 
• There are two sides, i.e. the north side and the south side, namely. Though there is huge traffic around the college, it is hardly a disturbance.

Environment:

The environment in the college is very welcoming. You will always find people studying. You will find them, especially in the Civil drawing hall. 

Library:

The library has a great stock of books. It has books as old as the college itself. 

Tie-ups:

The college has tie-ups with institutions that will enable you to have resources for free which otherwise are usually paid for.

Internet Facilities:

• The college also has an annual festival called Regatta.

There are also many other things worth maintaining about the campus. If you want to know more google about the campus. You can also visit the campus in person.

DTU is a tier 1 engineering college and has a distinct legacy of its own. It is one of the oldest engineering institutes in India and according to the 2020 NIRF Ranking, it ranks 34th among the top technological institutes in India. The placement scenario at DTU is quite impressive and students receive an average package of 6.5 LPA on placement drive. 

Although COEP is also a reputed college, most of the students are local and Marathi speaking. So if you are comfortable in Marathi and can strike a balance between Marathi and English, then you might consider COEP. The biggest advantage of COEP is it is located in the automation hub Pune which helps in the placement, especially for the mechanical branch.

Although the ‘NIT’ tag offers certain advantages, except for IT and ME branches the placement scenario in lower NIT’s is not up to the mark. Besides, these lower-ranked colleges also offer fewer opportunities for startups and entrepreneurship. DTU on the other hand has an excellent coding culture and conducts a vast number of fests for coders. However, a major difference between DTU and lower NITs is that the fee in the latter is much less as compared to the institute fees in the former. All NITs have a common fee structure as they all come under the reserved list of “Centrally Sponsored Institutes”. Furthermore, NITs also offer many scholarships for students. 

However, considering all the aspects and the associated pros and cons, DTU should be the first choice.
