How are the branches of CSE and ECE at NIT Calicut?
One of my friends is a student of NIT Calicut and according to him, the CS department is the best in the institute. It is also among the top 3 CS branches in NITs.
- The faculties for the CS branch are excellent. They have years of experience in the field.
- NIT Calicut also has a good placement record for their CS branch. Here are the recent placement highlights for the institute.
| Parameters | NIT Calicut |
| Highest CTC | 49 LPA |
| Average CTC | 11 LPA |
| Major recruiters | AutoNinja, Bosch, Nokia |
Overall, NIT Calicut offers a great CS program.
Which is better, ECE at IIT Madras or ECE at IIITH?
IIT Madras does not offer B.Tech ECE. Instead, it offers B.Tech in Electrical Engineering. The Electrical Engineering department is one of the oldest at IITM.
- Electrical Engineering at IIT Madras: Students in the Electrical Engineering department of IITM secure an admission to top universities like Stanford, UCB, Harvard, Georgia Tech, and The University of Michigan. The highest package offered to Electrical Engineering students of IITM during 2023 placements was INR 68.5 LPA, and the median package is INR 35.89 LPA.
- B.Tech ECE at IIIT H: ECE at IIIT Hyderabad revolves around signal processing. It also includes applied areas such as computer vision and speech, communications, VLSI/embedded systems, robotics, IoT, etc. The highest package offered to B.Tech ECE students of IIIT H was INR 45 LPA during the 2023 placements. The average package for the same year was INR 27.24 LPA for B.Tech ECE.
Both these institutions are highly reputed in the field of engineering, and they offer equally good academics and placements. But I would recommend you opt for Electrical Engineering at IIT Madras since it has a bigger brand name and a richer legacy. Moreover, Electrical students at IITM receive even better packages as compared to ECE students at IIIT Hyderabad.
Which is better, ECE at NIT Jalandhar or EEE at BITS Goa?
The better choice is undoubtedly EEE at BITS Goa than ECE at NIT Jalandhar.
NIT Jalandhar is still a developing institute whereas BITS Goa is a well-established institute that has got reputation all over the world. Most of the students have cracked competitive exams like GMAT, GRE, and UPSC, etc with a good rank.
You will interact with people who have appreciable knowledge and you will have healthy competition as BITS Goa don't have caste reservations.
Finally, if you can afford to join BITS then do it if not take a loan and don't worry about returns. You will get them in a year or maybe 2 years. Ultimately the choice is yours.
ECE in VIT or ECE in IIIT Dharwad, which is better?
CSE in IIIT Dharwad is a better option to opt for. As of now, they don't have a permanent campus but they will have their campus soon. See, there are pros and cons of every college/institute. Somewhere you might find one thing and another might be equipped with another better thing. IIIT Dharwad also has some pros and cons.
Cons:
- Don't have their permanent campus as of now and the temporary campus is also not that good.
- You have to pick your peer group very wisely because the type of people you choose will become your peer group.
Pro

- You will get the mentorship of some experienced faculties as PhD is mandatory for all the faculties here.
- Dharwad is quite close to Bangalore so you can get good placement opportunities.
- The campus of IIIT Dharwad will be really amazing.
- The facilities like hostel and mess are better in comparison to any other college/institutes.
- If you are a sports lover, you will have many sports facilities like cricket, football, basketball etc.
- And most importantly, you will have the brand name of IIIT which really matters.

How good is ECE at NIT Trichy compared to NITT CSE?
Both branchers are slightly different except for a few topics that overlap in the curriculum. Comparing it with one another is not worth it as both have their own differences.
Let’s take a quick comparison for clearing one’s view:
- Efforts: CSE is much more on the lighter side than ECE.
- Professors: Neither of the branches has good faculty members but ECE is probably better.
- Students: CSE will have a lot of North Indians if you want to look it that way.
- Placements: CSE has no comparison to other branches in terms of opportunities not only in jobs but even in internships. 70% batch gets internships after 3rd year in very good companies.
- NIT-T Fest: This is one of the things which excites every student after placement statistics. It’s amazing out there.
It is suggested to select the field based on interest. Go for CSE only if you are inclined towards the field otherwise, both branches can give you ample opportunities to learn and grow.

Which is better, IIT (BHU) Electronics, IIT Guwahati ECE, IIT Hyderabad Maths and Computing, or IIITH CSE?
Rather than giving you a direct answer, I am going to evaluate all The aforementioned institutes individually on the basis of some common parameters like placements, brand name, campus life, opportunities, and alumni.
IIT BHU ECE
- Core placements are rare and students mostly build their profile for software development companies by becoming proficient in various programming languages, doing competitive coding, doing projects, and trying to build a computer science-inclined profile. A handful of students target core engineering roles.
- The brand value is similar to other colleges mentioned
- The campus is rather old and might disappoint freshers expecting a good college life.
IIT Guwahati ECE
- Unfortunately, I have no knowledge about this Institute. However, I recommend you contact the seniors of IIT Guwahati for the same.
IIT Hyderabad Maths and Computing
- Usually, MNCs attract top-tier software and financial services firms. If you are a hardworking student, it wouldn’t be difficult to secure amazing offers at top firms.
IIIT Hyderabad CSE
- IIIT H has possibly one of the best computer science departments in the country.
- You have to do core computer science courses right from the first year.
- Many students get selected for Google Summer of Code and IIIT Hyderabad has its alumni in top-notch firms.
- Being highly academically oriented, IIIT Hyderabad has minimal campus life and extracurricular activities.
Ultimately, it’s a matter of preferences and what you are looking for in your degree.
