Hello Aspirant,

EEE (Electrical and Electronics Engineering) and ECE (Electronics and Communication Engineering) have many similarities - many of the core electronics areas such as: digital systems, circuits, and microprocessors are courses that are similar across both programs. However, EEE has a bit of a tendency to be more focused on electrical systems and power engineering, and ECE is focused more on communication systems, signal processing and VLSI design.

In the case with IIIT Gwalior, EEE has a very strong electronics and computing focus and makes the program quite similar to an ECE program.  So if you are a bit more interested in ECE related areas but have a good opportunity with EEE at a better school like IIIT Gwalior, I think its a good choice. You'll still get a chance to work in electronics and computing areas and can shape your career in ways that are related to ECE such as: embedded systems; VLSI; or communications.
