Sir I am from General category. Iat marks 142, wbjee marks 88, jee mains rank 94500, Advanced rank 24000 so not appearing in JOSAA, My personal preference is Maths/ Stats/MNC /DS/AI/ML. How will be IISER Kolkata Computational data science, IISER Bhopal B tech or RGIPT MNC. JU power , Chemical(from state quota) is also option. Also appearing for NISER. What should be preference for within India career opportunities

Ans: Parambrata, Based on your academic profile and career interests in mathematics, data science, and AI/ML, RGIPT’s Mathematics & Computing (MNC) emerges as the top recommendation due to its 65% placement rate (2023) and industry-aligned curriculum with strong data science components, followed by IISER Bhopal’s BTech program (12% placement rate in 2023) for its research-oriented computational training. IISER Kolkata’s Computational Data Science, while academically rigorous, has limited placements (6.5% in 2023), making it suitable primarily for research careers. Jadavpur University’s Chemical Engineering (90% placement rate) and Power Engineering (90% placement rate) offer stable core engineering opportunities but lack direct alignment with AI/ML domains. NISER’s focus on pure sciences may not cater to immediate industry demands in data science. Prioritize RGIPT MNC for balanced career prospects, IISER Bhopal for research foundations, and consider JU’s programs only if willing to bridge into tech roles via upskilling. All the BEST for your Admission & a Prosperous Future!
