Both the colleges are more or less good to pursue your studies. Though it is suggested that if placements are your primary concern, go for YMCA. DCRUST will help you more with research-based knowledge.
For a B.Tech in CS or IT, YMCAUST, Faridabad is better. It has a better CSE faculty. The placement and exposure offered are also better than DCRUST, Murthal. Better CS/IT companies visit YMCA, Faridabad placements. According to the recent placement highlights, the highest CTC offered is around INR 29 LPA.
YMCA Faridabad is better than UIET Chandigarh. It has an impressive placement record. It is also widely recognized in the industry. The coding culture of the institute is pretty active. Recent YMCA Faridabad placements concluded with the highest CTC of INR 29.92 LPA. Top recruiters’ list included names such as Samsung, HCL, Flipkart, etc.
IIEST Shibpur will be a better choice than YMCA because it is an old institution. The college provides better placement opportunities than YMCA. IIEST has got 20th rank among top institutions. It has been ranked 7th among the top research institutions.
If you are living in Faridabad and do not want to relocate then it will be a problem. Otherwise, you should choose IIEST Shibpur as it has got a better infrastructure, faculty members, and a learning curriculum.
There is no such branch as IT in YMCA. You will have to select the CS branch in YMCA and for that, you will have to score a rank of 200 in AIEE which will be difficult for you. And if you can score the rank then you can easily crack IIT and move to other good colleges.
No, PEC Chandigarh is way ahead of YMCA UST. PEC has a higher cutoff, hence a better student crowd. It also has a smaller batch size, so every student gets the required attention. PEC Chandigarh placements are better. The average and highest CTC for the institute are INR 10.83 LPA and INR 42 LPA, respectively.
Situated in Chandigarh, PEC also has a locational advantage. You will receive better exposure.
YMCA Faridabad will be an excellent choice to pursue CSE. The institute offers great placement opportunities. Some of the best companies visit the campus like Infoedge, Samsung, Infosys, IOCL, Amazon, TCS, Cadence Design Systems, and more.
NIT Manipur has top placements in the CSE branch, followed by ECE. It will give you the NIT Tag and exposure. You can get a chance to sit in pool placements.
