Which of these is better: B.Tech in CSE from IIT Bombay or BE (Hons.) in CSE from BITS-Pilani?

Both are among top 3 colleges for CSE department. I can throw some light in terms of various factors: Campus spread across a vast area full of greenery and just 5 hours from Delhi. All kind of lab facilities provided in the campus for CSE. Students are not only academics oriented but also involved in a lot of co-curricular activities. 4 fest held throughout the year BOSM, OASIS, INTERFACE, APOGEE. Some insight about the placements are: Flow traders-80 lakhs Uber - 40 lakhsNutanix - 40 LPA Goldman Sachs- 31 lakhs App dynamic - 30 lakhs Myntra & amazon - 29 lakhs

Hello, I feel that both are equally good. The difference that arises is the students at IIT-Bombay are the toppers of the country. So, the 60 odd, best minds, when work together, it gives an entirely different approach towards things. Both have equally nice faculty members. Obviously, infrastructure of Pilani is nice because it's a private institute. IIT too has nice infrastructure (but not too good). Obviously, brand value is more for top 5 IITs. For research purpose IITs are considered far better than any other institute as Indian government provides huge grants to IITs. Statistics of placements are same for both IIT-B & BITS-Pilani. Every year both keep on breaking their past year records. Obviously, it's better to opt for IIT-B over BITS. After all, it's one of the best engineering institutes in India at present. Also, IIT-Bombay is located in the metropolitan city, Mumbai. Here you can get much better exposure than at BITS, but then at the end of the day, it all comes down to what you really want. Hope this helps. All the best.

B.Tech in CSE from IIT Bombay is best option because IIT BOMBAY is top college of INDIA if u get this college then nobody will stop your placements Here are some more information about this college Placements : Almost all the students who apply for the placements gets placed ( almost implies that some people opt for higher studies, startups, civil services etc), hence the placement percentage is 99%. The highest salary offered will be around 1.5 crore/annum CTC and the lowest one will be around 8 lakhs per annum CTC. 100% students get the internship offer where the highest stipend will be around 2.5 lakhs per month and the lowest will be 10,000 per month. Infrastructure : It is excellent, but the only thing is that the hostel rooms will be a bit congested. However, in the new hostels, they are big enough. The canteens are good enough but there is a bit of a problem with the mess here. No problems were faced during my tenure at the college. The classrooms are just excellent, you feel like you are in a movie theatre when being in a classroom and all other facilities are excellent. I think a complete Wi-Fi campus would have been better here. Faculty : The professors are very encouraging and are a genius. It will be very interesting to know about their projects and they will be very inspiring for us. Our operating systems professor, an AIR-3 and a PhD from MIT, is from my native place, which is very inspiring for me. But some of them will be very boring, and some professors will not care for the attendance which makes their class strength negligible.

Though, both are top tier colleges I would suggest to go for IIT Bombay. The reasons are simple- 1. Brand value 2. Better student capital as you need to get a JEE rank of less than 300 The placements at IIT Bombay CSE department are easily the best in the country, along with IIT D. There are several students who opt for entrepreneurship/ MS or MBA but those who vie for placements get decent jobs. Almost 100% of the eligible and interested students get placed with an average CTC of close to 10 LPA. The creme-de-la-creme of the IIT B CSE department manage to get jaw dropping salaries from MNC's like Facebook, Microsoft, Oracle, Google and other software firms. The talent in coding at IIT B is phenomenal and there are several world class coders who have graduated. IIT B also has a fest called Mood Indigo which is one of the largest fests inn India. Now, coming to BITS Pilani's CSE we can certainly say that the placements and the intellectual capital is good. BITS is one of the top 10 engineering colleges of India and has a legacy behind it. The average CTC for the batch is around 7 LPA but several students rake in close to 20LPA and above especially those who are adept in quantitative skills and coding. The entrepreneurial spirit is somewhat lesser than that at IIT and the faculty at BITS is also a notch lower that that at IIFT. In terms of student life, both the colleges are at par and have excellent residential facilities. In terms of location IIT B has an advantage but location shouldn't be considered a parameter to choose between the two. So, overall, I would say IIT B is maybe a notch or two above BITS due to its brand value and excellent recognition globally.
