Here's a better comparison of both GITAM and VIT-AP:

- GITAM: Older College established in Andhra Pradesh, mostly focus on traditional computer science, average placement is about 4-5 LPA with top recruiters TCS, Wipro, Capgemini. Traditional infrastructure with beautiful coastal campus. Fees ranging around 2-2.5 LPY.

- VIT-AP is newly established and a part of VIT group that holds better brand value nationally. They offer more future scope courses that includes Python, R, data mining, AI etc. Average placement range is 4.5-6.5 LPA with recruiters that includes Infosys, Deloitte and Microsoft. Moder infrastructure with innovative, coding culture & tech events. Fees is same as GITAM.

Choose VIT-AP if your daughter is interested in data science or Moder techs, with better National exposure, better placement.

And choose GITAM for traditional CSE path with stable campus environment.

GITAM (Visakhapatnam) and VIT-AP both are excellent universities but ultimately it will be based on your daughter's preferences for specialization, exposure and placements.

GITAM Visakhapatnam (CSE Core):

• Classical and flexible Computer Science curriculum.
• Established campus with a better alumni network and more mature placement ecosystem.
• Great option if she is interested in a broad CS education and feels undecided in specialism.

VIT-AP (CSE with Data Analytics):

• New-age curriculum appealing to popular, trendy field - Data Analytics.
• Associated with VIT brand; however, AP campus is quite young compared to VIT Vellore/Chennai.
• Great option if she has a strong interest in AI, Data Science or Analytics from Day 1.

If your daughter has clear interest in a career in Data Science/Analytics and doesn't mind a newer campus, she should consider VIT-AP CSE (Data Analytics) whose curriculum seems more future-looking. Otherwise, if she prefers more flexibility and established placements pathways GITAM CSE Core will offer better placement ecosystem.
