Its the most common field people choose after completing their Ph.D. studies. But it may not be for you. In Academia, you need to do everything almost like a Ph.D. You will teach, give lectures, prepare slides, do your research, manage some administration, represent your college in few occasions and attend seminars and lectures in your field. If you would like to be in the field of research and teaching, then academia is for you. Consulting
Management consulting firms are always looking for people who can have a helicopter view of the problems and can give solutions which will help them build competitive advantage. Its a general belief that consulting firms only hire fresh or experienced MBA graduates. But nothing can be further from the truth. Government

One of the best positions to apply for after you complete your Ph.D. is the position of Military Researcher. This position is available in your field as well. That does't mean you need to go for it.

NMAMIT. You have to choose this because of the following reasons:
1. Beautiful Environment
Surrounded by western ghats and good places nearby NMAMIT has one of the good environment like similar to that of IIT-Bombay.
2. Good Students (especially localites)
Localites coming from CET, generally, are exceptionally good in studies, you can easily get notes and doubts being solved by them and clear the exam.
3. Decent Faculty and Autonomous Syllabus
I do not say all faculty members are great as one of them was a disaster in engineering graphics for me in my first year. But, in general, if you compare it to all the colleges which are Non-IIT or NIT, NMAMIT has one of the best faculty members in terms of teaching and as attendance is very strict (85%) you may just pass by listening to the class without any preparation. The autonomous syllabus has come as a boon as in CSE and ISE some of the electives are very good, for which most of the product firms would pick you just for that.
