Vasavi College of Engineering has been bestowed with an experienced faculty and an extremely good placement report over time. 

• The students of this institute are greatly disciplined as well.
• The major upside of Vasavi College of Engineering comes with the training it provides. Both on the enhancement of several soft skills and communication skills. 
• It offers open elective courses to students for creating a knowledge base in allied courses. 
• The institute encourages Campus Recruitment Training (CRT) following the sixth semester for making students industry-ready when placement offers to drive in. 
• Alongside many other advantages, it offers interested students coaching for the preparation of CAT as well. 

Make an informed decision while choosing between the two. Hope this helps in answering your query.

Both institutes will offer you placements in the field of software and very few core company opportunities. 

The architecture course in KLU is good and maintains discipline. In terms of campus and infrastructure, KLU has a superior view. Vignan University, on the other hand, has an average campus. 

You must choose KLU as it is updated with the latest education policies and equipment. In the placement drive held in KLU in 2021, the results have been near perfect when it came to placing the students in companies and firms that are reputed, in turn, resulted in 100% placement.

A total of 65 students got placed and the highest package offered to the students was INR 7 LPA. The average package offered was 3.5 LPA. More than 60 companies visited the campus. TCS offered 267 jobs and Cognizant offered 121 jobs.

The branch of mechanical engineering is the best one in IIT Ropar. If you have a strong foundation in the course then you can complete the program from anywhere.

IIT Ropar boasts of having a 100% record of placement in 2021. Some of the major recruiters were Deloitte, Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Ericsson, etc.

Out of the 113 registered students, 96 of them found themselves getting employed. Some of the top PSUs that employed the students were ISRO, Coal India, ONGC, Hindustan Petroleum, DRDO, etc.

As far as the placement reports say, placement for mechanical engineering in NIT Raipur varies in between 70%-80%. Although the placements are not as high as IT/CSE branch when compared with mechanical engineering. But yes, there is a most essential perk of job security in the mechanical engineering branch which most of today’s software companies and startups lack.

Now moving from core to non-core campus visitors in the fields of Software & Analytics for all the branches, the package offered is usually very low around 3.5–5 LPA.

• The automobile companies like Maruti Suzuki India Limited, Tata Motors, and Fiatwhich visit NIT Raipur for campus placements all give packages more or less between 5.5–6 LPA.
• Vedanta Resources do provide a better package than automobiles but their package includes a large amount of variable pay which depends on individual as well as company performance.
• So in the long run they are paid more or less the same as automobile placed people get.
• PSUs like Coal India Limited, Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL), Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) which visit NIT Raipur are among those few ones who actually increase the average by providing a very good pay scale of 10–12 LPA.

Some companies like BPCL AND HPCL have strict rules of allowing only topper of some branches to appear for the placements. Whereas Coal India does not have vacancies for mechanical every year.

Though, the job openings for Mechanical Engineers are always there. This is a reason why Mechanical is called an evergreen branch. Moreover, placements everywhere on the country’s economic situation.

Don't go for placement packages, it may disappoint you. Just keep a good CPI and be conceptually strong, you will surely end up in good companies like Tata and Maruti.

According to one of my friends, who is an alumnus of Thapar University, the integrated program involving BE and MBA is mostly preferred by the students nowadays over many other branches like civil, chemical, mechanical, and many others. At the same time, computer science or electronics plus MBA is a good option to take your career ahead as you may be well aware of the popularity of the computer science branch at Thapar University. Also, there is a benefit of not giving competitive exams such as CAT or GMAT.

The students who remain in the turmoil of giving entrance exams and don't want to write the national level exams or are afraid of not getting LM Thapar according to the marks scored in entrance exams, mostly prefer this course.

Since the course is newly introduced by the university, it will take time to settle and as soon as the stream settles down, automatically the cut-off will go high.

As for why this course has low priority among students, it’s just a mindset problem and has nothing to do with the course or university.
