IIT-K Electrical or IIIT-Hyd CS?
My nephew has both these options (and IITD/B Mech,etc) to choose from . From the perspective of career growth, which one is better. Consider all factors like prospects in CS, institute brand, etc that help in building a career.

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.
Any day IIIT CS
IITK Electrical
Will you share your reason for saying so?
The overall campus life, peer group, brand name you'll get at iit is unmatched anywhere else. Sure, if you wanna look at only one aspect that is placements, then both colleges are comparable. But when it comes to overall experience, exposure that one gets, etc iit kanpur is miles ahead of iiit Hyderabad. Don't just look at that shiny cse degree. Other things such as campus life, exposure to varied disciplines matter too. I myself graduated in cse from 2nd gen IIT. From my pov, in your case, iit kanpur wins by a mile. You can ask any doubts if you have.
IIIT-Hyd CS by a mile. It's not even close
What's K here ? Kanpur or Kharagpur ?
Kanpur. Kharagpur is KGP.
Honestly I don't have enough pointers here, but one factor you can consider is do you have a plan for Masters ? If you have a CS grad degree(that too from IIIT H none the less), you are more likely to get a good school abroad, that's what my experience is. However IIT has the brand, so dunno.
IIIT Hyderabad CS. No bullshit courses and electives. Straight forward computer science. Coding culture is also great there.
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.
