Hello Aspirant,

Selecting the top institute between IIIT Bhagalpur, IIIT Agartala, IIIT Dharwad, IIIT Kalyani, IIITV-ICD, IIIT Senapati, BIT Patna, and NIT Arunachal Pradesh for CSE is based on a variety of factors

Placement Trends:

1. Among the options provided here, IIIT Dharwad and IIIT Kalyani generally have the strongest placement records, although some students got decent placements through product-based and service companies.

2. BIT Patna and NIT Arunachal Pradesh do well in terms of placements through "service" sector companies, leaking out a small amount of placements.

3. IIITV-ICD (the newer campus of IIIT Vadodara) is evolving, but growing.

4. IIIT Agartala, IIIT Bhagalpur, and IIIT Senapati - being younger still, might have some sparse placement history at this point.

Alumni Network :

1. Older institutions like BIT Patna and NIT Arunachal Pradesh have a more robust alumni network and culture.
2. IIIT Dharwad and IIIT Kalyani are rapidly developing an alumni culture.
3. Younger IIITs have some distance to travel in terms of having a strong alumni presence when it comes to alumni presence.

Exposure & Opportunities :

1. IIITs focus more on coding culture and tech events, which is a blessing for CSE students.
2. IIIT Dharwad and Kalyani have been participating in coding competitions, hackathons, and tech partnerships.
3. Location also makes a difference — being close to tech hotspots such as Bangalore (Dharwad) or Kolkata (Kalyani) can provide more visibility.

Faculty:

1. The quality of the faculty is inconsistent for all except IIIT Kalyani and Dharwad have improved ratios of older PhDs as well as research-productive faculty.
2. IIIT Dharwad and IIIT Kalyani have relatively better hostels also. Unlike other IIITs they have even better food quality.

Food and Hostel Facilities:

1. It has been suggested in the feedback that IIIT Dharwad and IIIT Kalyani have relatively better hostels as well as quality of food.
2. BIT Patna also has decent facilities, but NIT Arunachal and IIITs of NE region may have limited option based on their location.

Conclusion:

1. If placements and coding culture are your top priority, opt for IIIT Dharwad or IIIT Kalyani.
2. If degree brand and alumni network matter the most to you, BIT Patna or NIT Arunachal could be better.
3. For those willing to bet on improving campuses, IIIT Bhagalpur or IIITV-ICD could offer fast-growing opportunities with time.

Hello Vaibhav,

You're in a good spot with a 97 percentile and solid IIIT/NIT/BIT Mesra options.

If your aim is software/tech industry (coding, product, startups, placements): opt for CSE at any of the IIITs at Dharwad, Ranchi, Bhagalpur or Manipur. Even tier-3 IIITs (CSE) will lead to better placements and internship opportunities in software roles than core branches at NITs. These will lead to better ROI than core branches, due to the tech placements and remote work.

Your next best option: IIIT ECE at Sri City or Una (ECE at Sri City has good industry engagement since it is close to Chennai & tech parks).

Recommended Prioritisation (if you are comfortable pursuing a tech career):

1. IIIT CSE (Dharwad > Ranchi > Bhagalpur > Manipur)
2. BIT Mesra – ECC/EEE
3. IIIT ECE (Sri City > Una > Nagpur > others)
4. NIT JSR – Civil > Metallurgy > Production
5. IIITDM Kancheepuram (Mech).
