NIT Goa, VJTI Mumbai, and COEP Mumbai are well-known engineering colleges. The choice depends upon you. The following are the points to be considered.
All these colleges are at a similar level. So, you should choose according to your convenience. If you don’t live at any of these locations then your preference order should be COEP/ VJTI > NIT Goa. VJIT has a great placement record. The average CTC offered by the institute is 7 LPA.
Yes, NIT Calicut is better than VNIT and COEP. If you are getting your desired branch at NIT C go for it. It has better brand recognition and offers better placements and opportunities. NIT Calicut placements 2022 ended with an average CTC of INR 13 LPA. While the highest CTC offered was INR 67.6 LPA.

If you have to choose between both of them, going for MNNIT Allahabad will be a better choice because there can hardly be any comparisons between an NIT and a government-run college of India.
If we compare these colleges based only on brand value and reputation, then COEP is way ahead of SPCE.
But you should prioritize your branch of choice while choosing an institute. Civil and Mechanical engineering, both these are core branches of engineering and have their advantages and disadvantages. Mechanical Engineering will give you exposure to a variety of branches like Automobile, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Thermal, etc. If you are genuinely interested in Mechanical Engineering, you can go to Sardar Patel College of Engineering. They have a good faculty base for the branch.
If you are flexible regarding your branch choice, you can choose COEP Civil. The institute offers a branch change option after completion of the first year too.

Also, 85% of seats are reserved for Maharashtra candidates at VJTI. Students must keep the above-mentioned features in mind when choosing.
You should choose COEP CS. The placement record for the branch is excellent. If you maintain good grades for four years and have the required skills, getting good placement opportunities won’t be difficult.
TCS, Accenture, Infosys, etc. are some of the major recruiters that recruit CS students through campus placements. The highlights of COEP placements show the average CTC for CSE to be around INR 6.5 LPA. While the highest CTC goes up to INR 30 LPA.
COEP Pune is better for Computer Science and Engineering. It has good brand recognition and offers excellent placements. Each year around 90% of students get placed from the CSE branch. According to COEP placements of recent years, the average CTC for the CSE branch is around INR 6-7 LPA.
If you want to pursue higher studies after B.Tech, then COEP is a good option as well. Students of this institute are studying at CMU, Berkeley, etc.
