IIT-K Electrical or IIIT-Hyd CS?

Don't listen to anyone here. IIIT Hyd CS over everything, except maybe IIT Bombay CS, or IIT Delhi CS.

IIT K Electrical by a mile

Any day IIIT CS

I'm a recent grad from IIIT-H. While I thoroughly enjoyed my time and job opportunities are on par with top IITs, I would say go for IIT-K just for the brand name. The jobs you'll be eligible with electrical during placements wont be very different from CS anyways.

IITK Electrical

IIIT-Hyd CS by a mile. It's not even close

I’d say IIT B/D whatever branch in a heartbeat. I studied in an old IIT (not B or D) but the network and confidence the big city IITs give is beyond anything else. The best of the best, the choicest placement options, an incredible alumni network(especially IIT D). Also, college culture and life is a big draw. I wouldn’t even consider IIIT cos I believe there’s more to life than CS courses but IIT B/D or if CS is necessary then IIT K

Being an IITK electrical passout i would suggest going for IITK. You won't regret it.

IIIT Hyderabad CS. No bullshit courses and electives. Straight forward computer science. Coding culture is also great there.

🙄🙄

What's K here ? Kanpur or Kharagpur ?

CS is the best.....The only thing you need to get clarity on is whether should I pursue CS in IITH so that I can put CS major on my resume and get a job (or) should I pursue other branches in more better colleges so that I get more exposure, get to participate in more activities inclining myself towards CS but your major will be other branch on resume After you get into a CS job it doesn't matter what you major in Here is a story of my friend...He joined in pharmacy in BITS pilani just so that he can get a platform, now he is placed in McAfee with 45 LPA ( CS Role). Another story : Had a CS degree from Tier2 college, less opportunities in college but applied off campus and placed in Microsoft (40 LPA) (CS research side) But in your case both are top colleges, go to IIITH website look for placements, if it satifies you, opt in. And also where do you stay, if you stay in hyd, IIITH would be the best choice

If brand and tag matters then IIT-K, but if you really want to learn computer science and get hefty packages IIIT-H >>>> IIT-K.

I have a bias for IIIT. Let's keep it simple. If you belong to any major city (Delhi, Mumbai etc) and are part of the upper middle class, you'll find IIT-K suffocating as hell. If you're from South India, choose IIIT-H, a much better option for a comfortable life, as long as you're ok with giving up the old IIT title. If neither applies, don't think twice, choose IIT-K The "not from IIT" stigma sticks, even if you are an EM at Google or working at an HFT. This is the same as any top MBA vs IIM thingy. Choose wisely.

IITK for sure!!

Both equally exciting and sexy opportunity. No definite answer. If your nephew already know that he loves coding or wanna be into AI or Blockchain etc. Then Should choose IIITH CS; if wanna explore more opportunity to explore his interests or say little confuse in between future (I am guessing most 18 years old are confused) careers in management, core engineering, research & higher education (foreign) and coding, then choose IITK. Although shouldn't be much difference actually. I would suggest to consider location, fees etc. for choosing if matters to your family.

IIT K electrical has the same job options in CS as IIIT H grad but has other options as well like consulting and quant research. Plus a much better brand value and better peers and alumni network.

Do anything but Dont take mech.

If you value the network and brand, go for IITK. If you want a high paying job, go for IIITH (IIITH CS is highly valuable)
