Core BTech branches like Mechanical Engineering and Electronics and Communication at Sri University cost INR 4,80,000 for the complete course. The Electrical Engineering track, focusing on Electric Vehicles and Renewable Energy, is priced at INR 7,20,000.  

IIT Bombay M.Tech cutoff 2026 was 600 for the M.Tech in Mechanical Engineering course for the General AI category. Hence, students need to secure a score of at least 600 if they want admission at IIT Bombay. To know the minimum score required by other categories for the same course, check the lsit b

TU Munich ranks marginally higher for Mechanical, Aeronautical & Manufacturing Engineering (#19 worldwide) compared to KIT's Mechanical Engineering subject rank (#32 worldwide) in QS 2026. If budget is a major factor, though, KIT's lower fees can offset the ranking gap for many applicants.

 IIT Kharagpur JEE Advanced cutoff 2026 ranged between 4182 and 4588 for the Mechanical Engineering branch. This the cutoff range for the General AI category. For the other categories cutoff range, students can check the table below.

The two specializations are quite different from each other. Mechanical Engineering deals with building physical systems. AI on the other hand, builds systems reliant on codes. AI offers faster growth and high paying salaries. Mechanical Engineering also offers good salaries but it is more stable.
