Dear candidate warm greetings for getting two very wise options to choose. If we first consider NIT Surathkal, it is indeed a very good college, improved infrastructure, nice faculties, placements with average salary packages of 8-9 LPA as a fresher. Computer science engineering branch is nicely taught here,

However it would be better if you stick to core CSE branch than having a dual degree. But IIIT Hyderabad is a better choice than the previous college if you think, the placement Packages start from around 12 LPA. Though both of these colleges give you opportunities to explore your potential.

Hope it helps to make your choice!!

Hello,

I hope you are doing fine, IIIT-H is really very good for computer science and if someone gets CSE at IIIT-H there should not be any question as to which college to choose, however if you do not get CSE at IIIT you probably have to opt for a dual degree programme at IIIT (or ECE). These dual degree programmes are great, top notch actually ! But understand this, that IIIT has standards to maintain and so the quality of research has to be really good otherwise….you don’t get a degree ! So if you think you do not have that research mindset and you are more concerned about getting done with college in 4 years, NIT is the place where you should go ! Otherwise IIIT-H is the best for computer science by a huge margin

I hope you find this information helpful. I wish you all the best for your future.

Good Luck
