  • IIIT H is considered to have the best coding culture. Many students from the campus make the GSoC shortlist, each year.
  • For average students, the placement opportunities offered are similar at both campuses. For top students, IIT B will offer much better opportunities. 
  • Both IIIT H and IIT B offer good research opportunities. But if you are passionate about research, you will have access to better placement opportunities at IIT B through professors and alumni networks. 
  • IIIT H offers a better program experience. You won’t have to study Biology, Chemistry like IIT B. There is more space for electives at IIIT H.
