Whenever in doubt, always choose CSE over Metallurgy. Currently, CSE has a high demand. Back when a friend of mine was in his college, he mentioned how everyone went for MNIT blindly.
Back then, MNIT used to carry out classes of IIIT Kota. But currently, it is of no use! Even if you have to choose any college in the future, the streams Metallurgy and CS are likely to confuse you.
Just go for CS as Computer Science. As mentioned, it is in great demand and is better than Metallurgy. CS happens to secure your employment opportunities for the future. I also would not say that the placements are very bad if you go for MNIT, Metallurgy, the placements are fine, but not something that catches the eye, simultaneously. There is no tag of NIT here.
IIIT Allahabad and MNIT Jaipur are institutes of national importance. But if you like coding, it's not wise to search for options in ECE. ECE is a hardware-related program dealing with communication, whereas CS deals with software.
For the NIT tag, you can choose SVNIT. Among the IIITs, the best will be IIIT Bangalore ad it provides the best research opportunities. But, the best choice as per your interest is B.Tech Hons. Computational Sciences from DA-IICT.
The reasons are below.
The fee and placement of DA-IICT are as follows.
Tuition Fee |
7.28 Lakhs |
Average Package |
10.16 LPA |
Highest Package |
39.3 LPA |
Overall, DA-IICT is worth joining for the CS program. It will reap excellent results.
MNIT Jaipur is pretty decent when it comes to these two colleges. Apart from the location advantage, here are some major reasons why you should choose it.
All in all, MNIT Jaipur has an edge over NIT Surathkal. CSE from MNIT is one of the best CSE programs among NITs.
Having friends in both the colleges, I can say that MNIT Jaipur and IIIT Lucknow are equally good in their own ways. If you get a chance in any of these colleges, go for it.
Apart from getting admission in any one of either the only thing which would give you trouble is which field to choose? But, I would like to say that whatever field you choose, if you work hard and be honest with your studies you will land in a better place.

And talking about IIIT Lucknow, Their campus just started functioning in 2020. Earlier IIIT Lucknow runs from IIIT Allahabad campus.
Further, getting a job in core trade is very difficult to go to IIIT Lucknow but do check the infrastructure and previous year placement record of IIIT otherwise join MNIT Jaipur in mechanical without any second thought.

There are many things to consider while choosing a college such as placements, location, branch, choice, your expectations after 4 years of engineering life, etc.
If you have a liking for a particular branch then go to that college all things considered. Being a student of MNIT myself, I can say that, if you are only concerned about placements then MNIT Jaipur will prove to be a better choice.
The following data comparing the placements at both institutes will hopefully give you better clarity.

Among the mentioned institutes, DTU will definitely provide you better placement for CS. However, placements completely depend on your talent and caliber and the college is just a medium to meet the recruiters. But, DTU has an advantage in terms of placements because of its location which makes it accessible for a lot of companies to visit the college for interviews. However, that does not necessarily guarantee placements. In the past, students had bagged 1 Cr salary packages, there were also students who got placed with only 3 LPA.
According to the placement highlights of 2021, the average and highest CTC offered at the institute were 7 LPA and 13 LPA.
Some of the major companies that visited the past placement drive are Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Amazon, Codenation, Samsung, Flipkart, Oyo, Uber, Ola.
Savitribai Phule Pune University is the best option among this for an MSc in Mathematics. Pune University is old and well-reputed. Science faculty of this university is great. You will have more options for your MSc project. SPPU is well known for its research interface.
IIT Mandi and NIT Jaipur offer the advantages of brand value. But these institutes are mostly known for their Applied Science courses.
You can judge for yourself, which is the best college for an MBA based on certain parameters.

NIT Goa is a new institute whereas NIT Agartala is not the right choice as it has poor infrastructure. Although NIT Patna and NIT Hamirpur are a good choice but MNIT Jaipur is the best among these for pursuing MTech in CSE as it has the best lab facilities with research exposures along with excellent placements.
