Is IIIT Dharwad really good?What is the expected average pay package for cse?

Newer IIITS are still developing but still if you are passionate about coding or any other IT field then college should be no problem, things will be fine soon but if you dont want to take any risk then it would be better to try to get some other state level Government engineering college.

And if you talk about its placement then they have not shared any placement record as such so you can consider it average only. To check about the same in detail, you can go through the below link -

Hope this helps!!!
