Computer Science and Engineering

With an SC rank of 12,000, admission to Computer Science (CS) depends on the counselling authority, total seats, and reservation policies.

• Top NITs/IIITs: Unlikely, as CSE usually requires much lower ranks.

• Lower-tier NITs, GFTIs, or state colleges: You may have a good chance.

• Consider other branches like ECE, IT, or EE as backups to secure admission.

With a KCET rank of 52,000 for BE Computer Science & Engineering, getting into top Karnataka colleges (like RVCE, PES, BMSCE, MSRIT) is highly unlikely, as these usually require ranks within top 1,000–3,000.

You can consider:

• Lower-tier NITs/Private colleges in Karnataka

• State colleges with available CSE seats in later counselling rounds

• Other branches like ECE, IT, or Mechanical as backup.

PU Goa's B.Tech CSE course is expected to start in mid-2025 (new academic year).

For B.E in CSE, Chandigarh University is really amazing and placement rate is 100%. The placements are top- notch as MNCs like Google, Accenture, Deloitte, HP, Flipkart, Wipro, and Samsung visit the campus. CU trains students from day one through its Career Planning and Development Department (DCPD) with resume building, mock interviews, GDs, and more. Each department has also a placement coordinator and faculty support to guide students. The university has tie-ups and collaborations with KPIT, Capgemini, Virtusa, IBM, Oracle, Intel, and CISCO etc.

In 2025, the closing rank for M.Tech CSE at IIITM Gwalior under general category for all India quota was 529. Likewise, the cut off ranks for OBC AI quota was 486 for the CSE specialisation. Students should aim for atleast a score of 529 or higher to secure admissions at IIIT Gwalior for M.Tech CSE. Though the exact cutoff may vary depending on the number of candidates appearing for the examination, the difficulty level, past year trend cycle, etc.
