Which is better: IIT Guwahati CSE or IIT BHU CSE?
Instead of recommending any specific institute, there are some myths that need to be debunked first:
- Placements at one institute are better than the other.
- BHU has a wider network.
- IITG has a cooler administration.
You must compare the two courses based on the following features:
- Academic research
- Placement statistics
- Competitive coding
- Open-source development
- Other club activities
- Climate and geography
- Connectivity (and distance from hometown)
If you're specifically interested in CSE, then the first four points are almost equal for both BHU and Guwahati. When it comes to the other points, IITG has a better climate, while Varanasi may be better connected and nearer to your hometown.
