Sir my Son is getting ECE at IIIT Hyderabad, CSE at IIIT Delhi and IT at IIIT Allahabad. Which one to prefer?

Ans: Your son has done very well to get such top options
IIIT Hyderabad – ECE
• This is one of the best IIITs in the country, even better than many old NITs.
• ECE at IIIT-H is very strong, especially if your son is okay with coding + electronics + AI-related subjects.
• Many students in ECE here get top jobs in software too, because of the strong coding culture.
• Placements are excellent, research is very strong, and companies like Google, Microsoft visit here.
Best choice overall — even if it’s ECE, not CSE.

IIIT Delhi – CSE
• Very good college, especially for students from North India.
• CSE is a strong branch here, with good faculty and research opportunities.
• Placements are good, though slightly behind IIIT-H.
• Campus life is decent but not as vibrant as IIIT-H or Allahabad.
Great choice if your son wants CSE only, and prefers staying in or near Delhi.
IIT Allahabad – IT
• Also a good institute, with a strong coding culture.
• IT here is almost same as CSE — students do well in placements.
• But when you compare with the above two, it’s ranked slightly lower overall.
Safe option, but pick only if others are not possible.
