Bachelor of Technology [B.Tech] (Mechanical Engineering) From MNIT, Jaipur

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.

Having friends in both the colleges, I can say that MNIT Jaipur and IIIT Lucknow are equally good in their own ways. If you get a chance in any of these colleges, go for it.

Apart from getting admission in any one of either the only thing which would give you trouble is which field to choose? But, I would like to say that whatever field you choose, if you work hard and be honest with your studies you will land in a better place.

• But answering your question with rank 11803 in the JEE Main; I would like to say that MNIT Jaipur is a much better college than IIIT Lucknow.
• If you ask me, nowadays the trend and placement of MNIT Jaipur are on par. But, if you are really interested in CSE then definitely look for CSE or IT in well-established IIITs.
• And with the rank of 11803, you might have a chance to get into old IIITs or TIER 2 NITs.

And talking about IIIT Lucknow, Their campus just started functioning in 2020. Earlier IIIT Lucknow runs from IIIT Allahabad campus.

Further, getting a job in core trade is very difficult to go to IIIT Lucknow but do check the infrastructure and previous year placement record of IIIT otherwise join MNIT Jaipur in mechanical without any second thought.

There are many things to consider while choosing a college such as placements, location, branch, choice, your expectations after 4 years of engineering life, etc.

If you have a liking for a particular branch then go to that college all things considered. Being a student of MNIT myself, I can say that, if you are only concerned about placements then MNIT Jaipur will prove to be a better choice.

The following data comparing the placements at both institutes will hopefully give you better clarity.

However, if you are thinking of branch change after entering the college then MNIT Jaipur does not provide that option while PEC Chandigarh offers that option. So choose one according to what matters more to you.
