SASTRA University Thanjavur B.Sc. Courses & Fees 2025

Hello naveen kumar,

Deciding between SASTRA University (Mechanical) and a local EAMCET college (CSE) will mainly come down to your long term career goals and reputation of the college you will be attending.

• If you want to focus on coding, have aspirations for IT jobs, or are interested in tech start ups - then a CSE from a decent local EAMCET college will probably provide you with more job opportunities, internships, and placements in the software sector.
• If you like the reputation of SASTRA, find it to have a superior overall reputation in general, have more infrastructures (libraries, sports, etc.), and are fine with committing to a Mechanical Engineering program but want to pursue a career in core jobs, public sector jobs and or interdisciplinary job areas so it will still open doors and you could also self-train in the software or information space if you desired.

Based on past trends and expected cutoffs, for B.Tech in Biotechnology, Sastra University generally admits candidates with JEE Main All India Ranks (AIR) between 9,000 and 13,000 under Stream 1 (JEE Main plus Class 12 weightage). Under St ream 2 (based only on Class 12 marks), the closing rank has historically been much lower, typically under 3,000.

With Rank 3996 (Stream 1) and 1083 (Stream 2) in SASTRA:

CSE/IT: Not likely in either stream.

Other branches (like ECE, Mechanical):

Possible in Stream 2

Slight chance in Stream 1 (later rounds)

Final admission depends on branch choice, category, and counseling rounds.

You should apply in both streams and attend all rounds for better chances.
