M.Sc. (Tech) Finance

I got 288 in BITSAT 2008, My preferences include all the BEs (at all 3 locations) and M.Sc. (Tech) Finance at Pilani. I do not think I have a chance of getting a BE at any location. I also have admission at BFIA in Shaheed Sukhdev College of Business Studies (DU) and BE (E&E) at Manipal. Can someone guide me on the M.Sc. (Tech) Finance Career Prospects vis a vis doing a BFIA at Shaheed Sukhdev or a BE (E&E) at Manipal?

I think the ISB topper was a Fin or Eco grad from BITS. I have read some pilani people say that Finance and Engg Tech are good courses.

SSCBS, DU is good purely because the best get in. From what I hear, the teaching/faculty situation is in the dumps. You should look for people studying in CBS BFIA and BITS Finance and ask them for honest opinions. I have a few acquaintances studying there. Let me know if you want me to put you in touch with them. One of them is doing his MBA from NMIMS, Bombay.

If you are OK with Finance , I'd suggest you go for BITS.Great firms (JP Morgan , Morgan Stanley , Citibank etc) are known to hire/recruit Finance students at BITS.
Of course you won't get an assured Dual.

I guess its up to you , would you be interested in pursuing Finance?

Would appreciate if you could put me pn to your acquaintances at NMIMS, who studied Finance from Pilani & SSCBS. Thanks.
