Hi,
With the change in the education system, it is not possible to pursue 2 full time degree courses simultaneously. However, students may choose to pursue 2 courses together on a condition that one has to decide which course to pursue as a regular mode of learning and which from distance / correspondence.
There is difference in Correspondence and Regular course, i would say it varies from one subject to the other also from one degree to the other. However in general a course through distance learning does not have as much value as the regular one so if you can do a regular course, it would hold a lot of importance and thus be a much better option. The acceptability and recognition of a full time course is higher in industry and the long term career gains are good.
Correspondence courses are ideally meant for those who are working and cannot leave their jobs to further their education. It is only to leverage ones experience and not so much as a stand alone degree. The employ-ability of a full time degree holder is the most and those with a distance education degree may face a drawback as far as employment options with MNCs are concerned. However, what is also relevant is your experience; skills and profile should match the profile needed for the job and organization. Thus it would be best for you to pursue a full time course.

HI Shivangi, I am currently studying in DTU and feel that DTU is better mainly because there is a lot of comptetion between the students and there is a great learning environment. If you have interest in coding then the college will offer you a great learning place. And if you are interested in extra-curicular activities then you have very many societies to provide you a great social environment. There is also CSI which is a computer science related society which will offer you great support in your preparing for any coding challenges or jobs you will take in your future.
So out of the things I know about MNIT I think that DTU is better.

Hi Pratibha,
If you are studying in the 1st year of engineering course and want to change the branch after completing 1st year of engineering i.e in the 2nd year then you can change the branch in 2nd year if your CGPA in the first year is minimum 8.5 or above and there are no backlog in any paper of 1st year. If you satisfy the above eligibility criteria then you can change the branch after completing 1st year of engineering.
Usually migration is permitted on a case to case basis within the university itself in the second year. However, migration across institutes after the second year will not be permitted. However, do check with your current college on the guidelines.
