I wouldn’t advise you to join Bahria because I know some people who are studying there and are not satisfied by the quality of education. In every degree, teachers play the most important role. If you don’t get good teachers, you’d simply lose interest in that subject no matter how passionate you are about it. Keep in mind SE is a field which you can learn solely on internet and there are plenty of Open Coursewares available but university grooming is really important. Also, yes companies do consider the uni’s name but it’s not a major factor in the final decision. In CS/SE, it all depends on your practical skills (70%), GPA (25%) and University name (5%). These are rough figures, by the way.
It’s upto you now, if you are PASSIONATE about SE then take a gap year like Alto said and apply to better universities next year or if you just LIKE software engr then I’d suggest you join GIKI. Material Sciences is a great field too!
