B.Tech in India

The large number of B.Tech options in India should direct students toward education at the premier institutions among IITs, NITs and private universities. The three leading IITs include IIT Bombay and IIT Delhi and IIT Kanpur at costs ranging from INR 2.2 Lacs to INR 10 Lacs annually for tuition fees. NIT Trichy together with NIT Warangal and NIT Surathkal stand as top NITs because they charge annual fees between INR 1.3-2.2 lakh. The education costs at BITS Pilani and Manipal Institute of Technology and VIT Vellore amount to between INR 3.5 Lacs and INR 4.5 Lacs annually.

A few private colleges in India admit students directly on the basis of merit, ignoring entrance tests. These are Shobhit University, Meerut, and Sigma University. A few other institutions are UPES Dehradun, which accepts class 12 marks, and BITS Pilani, which grants direct board-toppers admission. Manipal Jaipur has direct admissions if not all seats get filled up in the MET counseling process. K.R. Mangalam University is another good example. Note that eligibility criteria like minimum marks in class 12 with PCM subjects differ.

 The average placement package offered to engineering colleges that consider CUET scores for BTech admissions in India are:

• Universal AI University: Annual average package of INR 10.42 LPA 
   
• BHU: Annual average package of INR 8.5 LPA 
   
• Chitkara University Chandigarh: Annual average package of INR 8.5 LPA 
   
• Faculty of Technology UoD: Annual average package of INR 8.5 LPA 
   
• GLA University: Average placement package of INR 6 LPA

Sure there are a number of decent yet inexpensive colleges under the COMEDK umbrella including Bangalore's BMS College of Engineering offering a fee of about Rs 66,000/year having seen good placement and PES College of Engineering charges up to Rupees 1.63 lakh/ year and seeing good connections in the market. The other is also Sri Jayachamarajendra College of Engineering known for academic excellence and on par fee-wise. These institutions provide quality education and robust placement opportunities, making them attractive choices for value-seeking students in pursuit of engineering education.

Pondicherry University has seen consistent placement opportunities for its B.Tech graduates, with varied outcomes depending on the department and specialization. Recent data indicates that the median package offered to students is around INR 6.5 LPA for the latest graduating batch, marking an increase from the INR 4.3 LPA in the previous year. Moreover, the university has maintained strong placement numbers through partnerships with government and private companies, providing students with opportunities in fields like IT and engineering. Graduates are typically recruited by companies such as ONGC, BHEL, ISRO, and Indian Railways.
