What are the selection crieteria for CBSE boards..to get into IIIT HYDERABAD.. through the Boards channel.. as this board is way standardised and difficulty level is obviously more than any other state boards.. please clarify the above query.. thanks.

Ans: Susmita Madam, Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University for Women’s B.Tech CSE–AI programme is NAAC-accredited and NIRF-ranked, delivered by PhD-qualified faculty through a dedicated Centre of Excellence in AI with specialized labs for computer vision, NLP and deep learning. It reports a 73 percent placement rate for CSE–AI, an average package of ?22.82 LPA and strong industry-research collaborations with government bodies and tech firms. IIEST Shibpur’s B.Tech CSE is part of an Institute of National Importance, offers NBA-accredited curricula in OOPS, DBMS and digital logic, supports robust research centres (DataKart CoE, AI labs) and achieves an 86.2 percent CSE placement consistency, with recruiters such as Google, Microsoft and Accenture participating in campus drives. Both institutions maintain modern infrastructure, interdisciplinary project opportunities and active placement cells.

Recommendation:
Given higher CSE placement consistency, broader recruiter engagement and the Institute of National Importance status, IIEST Shibpur’s CSE offers the stronger long-term career platform. However, if specialized AI research and a women-centric campus environment are priorities, IGDTUW’s CSE–AI remains an excellent choice. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
