Both IIT Hyderabad Artificial Intelligence and IIT Delhi Mathematics and Computing are excellent courses. Of the two, choosing MNC at IIT Delhi is slightly better because:

The NIRF ranking of IIT Delhi is 2, while that of IIT Hyderabad is 9.
IIT Delhi was established in 1961, while IIT Hyderabad was established in 2008. Therefore, IIT Delhi has a stronger alumni network and a better reputation.
Mathematics and computing revolves around both mathematics and computer science, which opens more diverse job opportunities for students.

Here are the 2023 placement stats of IIT Delhi and IIT Hyderabad:

Particulars	IIT Delhi	IIT Hyderabad
Placement Percentage	84.94% (Overall)	88.10% (Department-Wise)
Highest CTC	INR 2.5 CPA (Overall)	INR 63.78 LPA (Overall)
Average CTC	INR 17.60 LPA (Overall)	INR 24.32 LPA (B.Tech)
Top Recruiters	Uber, Rubrik, WorldQuant, Blackstone, Millennium, etc.	Google, Amazon, Facebook, Microsoft, Caterpillar, etc.

(The branch-wise placement stats for IIT Delhi and IIT Indore are not available).

If you have a specific inclination towards AI, the IIT Hyderabad AI course will treat you well. But if your interest lies in Math and Computer Science, or you wish to gain an overall better exposure, I would recommend you join Mathematics and Computing at IIT Delhi.

Studied at Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad (2020)

Both, IIT Hyderabad Artificial Intelligence and IIT Delhi MC h are excellent Engineering programs and can be taken for a successful career in Engineering. Of the two, MNC from IIT Delhi is slightly better than IIT Hyderabad AI because:

IIT Delhi has better facilities and opportunities in terms of the alumni network, better peer groups, and an equally good extracurricular culture.
MnC as a branch is great and offers a plethora of job opportunities from a theoretical computer scientist or mathematician to an engineer in IT sectors/data science jobs.

So, if you have a specific inclination towards AI, well and good, IIT Hyderabad AI will treat you well. But if your interest lies in Math or you aren’t sure if your area of interest and want to explore different fields, go for IIT Delhi MNC.
