The most important aspect that a candidate needs to choose is the department or the stream of study. At the end that will matter most. If you are dedicated to the course, you will surely excel.

The table below gives a brief level of comparison among the specified branches of the different institutes.

Key highlights:

  • In NIT Kurukshetra, the curriculum is more like computer science and engineering, but the degree is offered in the name of computer engineering. In CE, there is more attention towards computer hardware in the syllabus, whereas in CSE, there is equal weightage of hardware and software in the syllabus. So, there is no genuine CE department in NIT Kurukshetra.
  • Though the comparison among institutes depends on personal interest, there are factors that are compared among the institutes to make an order of preference. This order of preference is as follows.
    ECE at IIIT Allahabad > ECE at NIT (Kurukshetra/ Surat/ Bhopal)
    IT at IIIT Allahabad >> CSE at NIT (Kurukshetra/ Surat/ Bhopal)

Considering the above points and the colleges’ overviews, a candidate can choose his/her preference based on personal interest.
