How can we compare CSE in top NITs like Suratkal/Warangal with that of CSE in new IITs like Bhubaneswar ?

Old NITs like Surathkal or Warangal have an established stature in terms of placements, courses, faculty, infrastructure, etc. They offer a strong faculty base and learning environment to its students. For example, NIT Surathkal has consistently maintained a placement percentage of 90%+ for the BTech CSE branch. Some top companies that visit the campus for final placements are Adobe, Microsoft, Oracle, etc.

New IITs have also set a promising position for Btech CSE. IIT Indore hosts a variety of projects and events related to competitive programming/coding. Placement records are also good at these IITs. For example, IIT Bhubaneswar records 100% placements of students from the CSE branch with an average package of 11.44 Lakhs INR per annum. Some companies that visit the campus for final placements include Reliance Jio, Amazon, Deloitte, Oracle etc.

You should weigh the pros and cons and join the institute with the better CSE program and not join a college only for the brand value.
