It is interesting that you are checking specific courses of specific institutions!

According to the most recent information for Belgharia Ramakrishna Mission Shilpapitha, North 24 Parganas, in 2024-2025, their prominent branches are the Diploma Engineering Courses .

More Specifically, It Offers:

• Diploma in Civil Engineering
• Diploma in Electrical Engineering
• Diploma in Mechanical Engineering
• Diploma in Electronics and Communication Engineering, which may sometimes be called Electronics & Telecommunications.

Furthermore, while Electronics and Communication Engineering covers topics such as digital systems, microprocessors, and other aspects of computer hardware, it significantly differs from a dedicated Computer Science diploma or degree. Computer Science delves into software development, programming languages, algorithms, data structures, operating systems, and the theoretical foundations of computing. These aspects are just touched upon in the curricula of the ECE. Therefore, students who wish to build a career in software development or advanced computing should ideally opt for a specialized Computer Science course .

Another consideration needed to be made is to differentiate between Ramakrishna Mission Shilpamandira at Belur Math, Howrah, and Ramakrishna Mission Shilpapitha at Belgharia. Although the names are similar, and both institutions share the same philosophical heritage, they are completely independent and have different academic offers . Shilpamandira in Belur Math comprises a Computer Centre, which offers a wide range of short-term and certificate courses in computer applications, programming, graphics, and hardware. The focus here is on upgrading practical IT skills, and the courses are done by students or professionals who seek to obtain some additional technical qualification. Shilpapitha, Belgharia, mostly offers diploma programs in engineering disciplines such as Electrical, Mechanical, Civil Engineering, and Electronics & Communication, with no or very limited aspects of core computer science. Therefore, understanding this key difference allows prospective students to make an informed choice based on their education and career goals.

Therefore, if you specifically require a full-fletched “ Computer Science ” course such as Diploma in Computer Science, or B.Sc./B.Tech in Computer Science, it appears that the above Institute does not provide such a course , opting to stay within the boundaries of the traditional engineering diploma branches.

If your admission is already confirmed, knowing the cutoff for Computer Technology can still be useful for understanding how competitive the branch is. The cutoff for Computer Technology varies across colleges and is influenced by demand for the branch, the reputation of the college, and the entrance exam scores of the applicants. In many reputed private engineering colleges, Computer Technology cutoffs through state counselling are relatively high, often in the top 15–25% of ranks for that year. For example, in Maharashtra under MHT-CET, the cutoff for Computer Technology in good colleges can be between 90–96 percentile. In Tamil Nadu under TNEA, the cutoff could be 175–190 marks out of 200 for top colleges. If you were admitted under management quota, the cutoff might not directly apply to your case, but it still indicates that the branch is highly sought after. Since you’ve secured your seat, I would recommend focusing on building strong programming, problem-solving, and project skills right from the first year.

Thank you!

Hey Shubhra,

With a JEE Main CRL rank of 10,04,756 and an OBC category rank of 4,42,500, it is highly unlikely to get admission in Computer Science (CSE) in any top AKTU-affiliated government or reputed private college, as CSE remains one of the most competitive branches with cut-offs typically under 2 lakh CRL and much lower for category ranks.

However, you may have a chance in lesser-known private engineering colleges affiliated to AKTU under the OBC reservation, but it depends on:

Seat availability after higher rank cutoffs are filled

Management quota or spot round availability

Regional preference (UP domicile benefits).

Recommendation:

Explore non-core branches like IT, ECE, or Mechanical in private colleges under AKTU.

Consider direct admission in private colleges with AICTE approval (check for quality and placement).

You may also look at polytechnic to B.Tech lateral entry route or appear for CUET UG or state-level exams next year for better options.

Hey Anthony,

Apart from BTech in Computer Science, several other degrees offer high salary potential and promising future prospects, especially in technology-driven and high-demand sectors. Some of the top alternatives include:

1. BSc in Data Science or Artificial Intelligence – High demand in IT, finance, and research sectors.

2. BCA + MCA (Integrated or separate) – Strong job prospects in software development, app/web development.

3. BSc in Statistics or Mathematics – Leads to roles in analytics, risk assessment, and data modeling.

4. BBA in Business Analytics or Finance – Growing in demand with top MNCs offering lucrative packages.

5. BDes in UI/UX or Animation – High-paying creative roles in tech companies, gaming, and media.

6. Bachelor in Cybersecurity / Cloud Computing – Emerging fields with excellent salary growth.

7. BPharm / BSc Biotechnology / BSc Life Sciences – For those interested in healthcare, R&D, or pharma sales.

8. BA/BSc in Economics – Leads to careers in finance, consulting, and government services.

Best wishes for your future

With a VITEEE rank of about 97,000 , it is very unlikely to get admission into CSE or IT at the main campuses like VIT Vellore or VIT Chennai , since their closing ranks for these branches are usually below 34,000 . However, you may still have a chance at VIT Bhopal or VIT-AP , where CSE and related specializations are offered for ranks up to 1.1 to 1.3 lakhs . So while the top campuses may not be possible, you can still aim for the newer VIT campuses with decent options in Computer Science.

Scoring 430/500 in CBSE Class 12 is excellent (around 86% aggregate ), and it makes you eligible for admission into Computer Science & Engineering (CSE) in most engineering colleges across India. For government colleges like NITs, IIITs, or GFTIs, you will need a good JEE Main score in addition to your board marks. If you’re open to state-level institutes, exams like KCET, MHT-CET, WBJEE, or TNEA can help you secure a seat in reputed colleges. With your strong marks, you’ll also qualify for many private universities that admit students based on Class 12 performance plus entrance exams.

When it comes to Mathematics and Computer Engineering, both your MHTCET score and board percentage play an important role in admissions. The most sought-after colleges in Maharashtra for these branches include College COEP, Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute (VJTI), Sardar Patel Institute of Technology (SPIT), and Pune Institute of Computer Technology (PICT). COEP and VJTI generally require top CET ranks (usually above the 99 percentile), while SPIT and PICT have slightly lower but still competitive cut-offs. Your board marks are considered for eligibility but the CET percentile is the deciding factor in allotments. If your score is extremely high, you can aim for Mumbai or Pune colleges that have strong placement records in IT companies like Infosys, TCS, Wipro, and product-based firms. If your score is moderate, private universities like MIT World Peace University, Vishwakarma Institute of Technology (VIT Pune), and DJ Sanghvi College of Engineering are great options with good infrastructure and industry connections. It’s important to also check the college’s NAAC accreditation, placement statistics, and course curriculum before making your choice.

Best of luck for your admissions.

Hello,

The fees for MSc Computer Science in India can be different from college to college. Here’s a simple idea:

• Government colleges : Rs. 10,000 to Rs. 50,000 per year

• Private colleges : Rs. 50,000 to Rs. 2,00,000 per year

Top colleges may charge more. Also, the fees can vary based on the city and facilities provided.

Hope it helps !

Good afternoon

Here are general info of fee structure for msc in computer Science Government/state universities generally range from  30 k–70 k total.

Private colleges tend to be significantly costlier, roughly  65 k–1.2 L per year, depending on the institution and region.

If you give me some more info of which state do you belong or which college fee structure you want to know then I will help in more significantly way.
