Dear Aspirant 

For the college like national institute of technology there is no much difference between the placement scenarios of Information Technology and computer science engineering, because these two branches are similar in many ways, so if you are getting information technology then I would suggest you to take admission without having any hesitation. 

Good luck for your future :) 

Feel free to ask if you have any further queries.

NITK offers undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral programs in various specializations. Admissions at NIT Suratkhal to these courses are conducted every year. But when we come to comparison of placements with CSE then no doubt CSE has better placements.
