Which one is better for computer science, SRM University- Vadapalani or Sikkim Manipal Institute of Technology?

Sikkim Manipal Institute of Technology seems a better choice to go with. Having cracked the SRM University Entrance Test, some of my friends still chose ECE with Sikkim Manipal Institute of Technology. SRM has an edge in terms of placement opportunities due to it being located in the city. 

Tabulated below are some relevant facts about both of these universities:

Few specific Highlights about Sikkim Manipal Institute of Technology –

Faculty:

• The faculty members are supportive as well as encouraging. They provide the required guidance to the students.
• On being approached to guide on a project my friends were working on, the faculty was helpful in commencing the project and also gave guidance on completing an IEEE research paper.
