My brother is from NIT Pondicherry and so I can give you an insight into the recent scenario at the campus.
You’ll be able to meet students from all around India, as well as from other countries.
Choose BITS Hyderabad over NIT Raipur or NIT Puducherry. Here are some of the reasons for choosing this institute:
You might think that going for a dual degree is better as IT companies only prefer CSE graduates. But nowadays this notion has changed as with big data and analytics creating a boom, more and more such companies visiting campuses and hiring people from all branches.
Therefore it is suggested that you go for BITS Hyderabad, where you will grow and learn in a much more competitive environment. Your vision will be broadened.
One of my friends studied in JNTU Hyderabad and she says that the college is very good when it comes to studies and placement.
It gives you great opportunities to build your career and thrive in it. The subject knowledge is crucial and is given great importance there. The curriculum is also very structured and helps students with the approach to study. Many MNCs participate in the placement drive. In the NIRF Ranking 2021, JNTU has ranked 62 along with other NITs. It will be unfair to compare two very different entities but you can choose based on your requirement.
I have a few friends from NIT Puducherry and according to them, students in NIT-P are facing difficulties due to the negligence of the administration.
The basic facilities are not provided. The administration is solely focused on increasing the number of courses in the institute. The institute lacks proper classrooms, hostel rooms and accommodation, water facilities, and a proper power supply. Even the basic amenities of the students are not being fulfilled.
There is also a transportation problem from the institute side. They have very few numbers of vehicles when compared to the number of students. Students on average waste about 5 hours per day due to the transportation problem.
But the situation is getting better slowly, now that it has moved to its own campus. Many of the important structures like the science block and hostels are built already.
VIT CSE is better in terms of placements, industry exposure, opportunities, and many other things as compared to NIT Puducherry Electrical. According to the recent placement highlights of VIT, the average CTC offered was 6 LPA and the highest CTC offered was 75 LPA.
On the other hand, NIT Puducherry is a Govt. college. It changes less course fee. For a B.E degree, NIT Puducherry charges around 2.17 lakhs, while a B.Tech from VIT will cost around 8 lakhs. The peer group at the institute is great. You will also have the NIT tag with your degree. That is certainly a perk of pursuing a degree at NIT Puducherry.
However, you should choose the institute based on your interest. If you like coding go for VIT CSE, or if you like basic sciences more than NIT Puducherry Electrical Engineering will be a better option for you.
The CSE department is a great department to study in VIT. Students are open to a lot of facilities and learning resources. The teaching staff is helpful as well.
So, choosing VIT for your CSE degree will definitely be worth it.
NIT Puducherry is really a nice institute. Let’s see some facts about it :
You might not get good placement offers as the institute is currently in a development phase. But it is still improving each year. Another issue with the institute is that you will be required to submit a lot of assignments in a term. Overall, you will enjoy your time at NIT Puducherry.
According to my friends at IIIT Guwahati, CSE at IIIT Guwahati is definitely a better choice. Let me provide some points which will give you a better insight into the colleges.

Therefore, IIIT Guwahati has a lot of advantages over NIT Patna/ Puducherry, which makes it a better choice for students in engineering.
NIT Puducherry has recently shifted to its permanent campus, although IIITDM’s campus seems better. As for the faculty, again IIITDM has an upper hand but you will have to figure out an approach towards them.
Both the institutes have a fairly comprehensive and challenging curriculum for their students. They are both good placement wise but if you have more than 7.5 CGPA you will be allowed to sit for all the companies in IIITDM. You can see which suits best to your requirements.
It depends upon what subject you would like to pursue. Here are some of the factors that may help you decide between NITK and NIT Puducherry.
If you don’t have any inclination towards a specific branch then you should choose NITK.
