IIT Dharwad is a very newly established IIT. This is the reason that IIT Dharwad lacks in terms of a good alumni network. Thus, you will not get ample support from the alumni.

On the other hand, IIT Bhubaneswar is getting more organized and better established with the passing years. IIT Bhubaneswar has a good alumni network. There are plenty of research scholars and M.Techs to guide the students. The seniors will inspire you.

In terms of a branch, CS is a better option. But in terms of campus, IIT Bhubaneswar is a better choice. You can also change your branch if you perform very well academically in the first year of B.Tech at IIT Bhubaneswar.

IIT Bhubaneswar is ranked 47th and IIT Dharwad is ranked 93rd in the NIRF India Rankings 2023: Engineering.
