ISM Dhanbad is one of the oldest colleges in India with experienced faculty and a diverse curriculum. The excellent research facilities and the established alumni network coupled with the amazing facilities add to a great student culture existing in the campus. Moreover, in comparison, IIT Bhubaneswar was just established 12 years ago in 2008, and it has shifted to its main campus just a few years ago so as compared to IIT(ISM) Dhanbad it lacks a little behind in infrastructure.
Coming to the placement, both colleges being IITs have an excellent record in the CSE department. Same or similar firms come to both the campuses for placements however the packages and the number of offers made by the firms are significantly higher in IIT(ISM) Dhanbad. For eg., Goldman Sachs in 2018 placed 4 offers in IIT Bhubaneswar as compared to 10 in IIT(ISM) Dhanbad although the average package offered by them in both the colleges was the same at 31 LPA. However, Samsung R and D offered made 10 offers with the average package being 16 LPA at IIT(ISM) Dhanbad and in IIT Bhubaneswar they ended up making 2 offers with the average package being 10 LPA. According to 2019 placement highlights in IIT(ISM) Dhanbad there were 90.23% placements from the CSE department with average CTC 39.5 LPA. Whereas, in IIT Bhubaneswar CSE department had 100% placement with an average of 11.44 LPA.
Therefore, considering all the factors at the moment IIT Dhanbad will be the better option than IIT Bhubaneswar for CSE. However, the speed at which IIT Bhubaneswar is growing it can also be considered as an alternative.
