Read the NIRF Label Carefully

Queen Mary's is ranked #71 under the Commerce & Management category. That rank reflects overall institutional strength, not a CS-specific benchmark—so use it as a broad quality signal rather than a tech-program guarantee.

The verdict

Good fit

If you want a ridiculously affordable CS degree in Chennai with a direct pipeline into IT services, this is a steal at under ₹9K total. Just know it's a 3-year B.Sc., not a B.Tech, so product-company placements and sky-high starting salaries are rare. Data confidence is moderate—definitely chat with current students before you commit.
