AKTU is better for Engineering. For technical courses, it is among the top institutes in Uttar Pradesh. AKTU has an excellent faculty pool. The faculties are alumni of institutes like KNIT, IET, etc. The course curriculum and programs are well-designed according to the industry trends. 

Engineering students need different kinds of environments for exposure. AKTU offers exactly that. There are various clubs, student councils, technical and non-technical forums, that you can opt for. AKTU placements are excellent. Students usually receive an average CTC of around INR 6 LPA. While the highest CTC goes up to INR 14 LPA.

Most of the students have favored AKTU for engineering rather than MJPRU. Here are some facts about it.

• If studying in Uttar Pradesh is your choice, go for AKTU. It is a technical university with faculty members from prestigious affiliated institutes like KNIT, IET, etc. 
• Whereas in other State Universities (MJPRU), there is a lack of dedicated engineering professors.
• It provides a Training & Placement Cell, student’s councils, clubs, technical and non-technical forums, coding classes, etc. These are lacking in MJPRU. 
• MJPRU is said to be better for other non-professional courses like BA, B.Sc., etc. but not for engineering.
• The environment is more appropriate for education in AKTU compared to MJPRU.
• In Lucknow, you will get nearby coaching centers for GATE, CAT, SSC, etc. for your higher studies.
• AKTU also is said to have a better student crowd, who maintain healthy competition among themselves.

Many good companies have come for campus placement at AKTU for engineering students. Honestly, all the state engineering colleges of Uttar Pradesh State like CSJM Kanpur University, MJP Rohilkhand University, VPS Purvanchal University, RML Avadh University, etc. will prove to be a disappointment when compared to AKTU.
