Hello there, see its all depends on your interest but as you have said that you like all the three branches then let me tell you about the branches. If we talk about mechanical branch, it is not a bad option, it is a evergreen branch because it runs on the machines and machines will never stop. So it is a secure branch. Now lets come to Aerospace branch, it is a nice branch. This branch has its future in India and abroad also, only few colleges provide education for this branch. Now come to Computer Science branch, it is the branch which is in trend right now. It is at the boom at this scenario and it is the branch which has a vast scope in itself. In UPES, it has 18 specialisation in Computer Science. It has very much scope in India and abroad also. It is a safe and secure branch because its a world of computer and technology.

Government colleges have more reputation than private colleges. But if you are looking for good placement, then some government colleges don't provide good placements (not all of them).
And there is also mass recruitment in all colleges. So you have to be unique if you want a good package. UPES provides good placements. But mass recruitment is also present in UPES.
VM provided more than 15 LPA. Microsoft gave an offer of 11 LPA.

It's up to you that how much capacity you are. Placements are good. If we do not talk about mass recruitment then placements are very good. Even in mass recruitment, you can get package more than 4 LPA. Top recruiters in UPES are IBM, L&T, Microsoft, VMware, Dell, etc. So, at last, it up to you.
