Hey,

I am answering the question seeing the current trends.

To be very honest the job or placement prospect in mechanical branch is not that good currently as compared to the electronics and computer science branch.

The students of Mechanical engineering are themselves working  in other branches and that makes it pretty obvious that you should not be going with mechanical branch.

The computer science branch is in huge demand and will definitely help you grab a good placement so I will suggest that your daughter should go for Electronics and computer science in KIIT rather than mechanical in VIT, Chennai.

Hope that helps.

All the very best.

Thank you.
