In all honesty, it is determined by the pace of work at your institute. There is a slight chance that the majority of your degree will not be completed on your home campus, but it is highly unlikely that you will complete four years away from home.

Again, it is more dependent on the speed with which the government grants clearances to your institute.

Here is a brief overview of each one of them that might help you choose the best.

IIIT Bhubaneswar: It has been recognized as an International Institute of Information Technology, where the first 50% of the seats are primarily reserved for the Odisha category, while the other 50% is decided upon the JEE Mains. The placement is comparably the same as IIIT Vadodara and in terms of infrastructure, it is largely adequate too.

IIIT Vadodara: The campus is as of now temporarily functioning at GEC Gandhinagar, Gujarat. However, it still has a very reputed technical culture surrounding students, as well as the placements, are continually hiking each year. It is proof of how it is rapidly growing. The hostels of the institute are extremely good, as opposed to most of the other IIITs.

IIIT Una: It was established after IIIT Vadodara. It is at present functioning from NIT. It, unfortunately, has poor transportation facilities.

Nonetheless, for a better idea, here is a brief highlight of each institute’s placement stats for the year 2020.

Given the clear image of each institute above, you should now choose wisely to decide further. It is suggested that you still run a check on other latest important aspects of each institute.

IT at IIIT Una is better than CS at KNIT Sultanpur. The reasons for the same are given below.

• Infrastructure - IIIT Una does not have its own campus yet. Currently, it is functioning from NIT Hamirpur campus. Thus IIIT Una students enjoy the same great facilities and the lush green campus as NIT Hamirpur students. KNIT Sultanpur has average to bad infrastructure.
• Locality - Again the temporary campus at NIT Hamirpur is much better than Sultanpur.
• Education - In this regard, both may be equal but owing to better facilities being provided by NIT Hamirpur, IIIT Una will be considered better. The fee is almost the same in both the colleges.

It is advisable to talk to some of the current as well as recent alumni of both the institutes to know the exact state of the colleges and their placement records. IIIT Una is still very new and evolving. KNIT is also a good option but looking at other things and the future growth potential IIIT Una should be preferred.

It entirely depends on your interest.

In the following table, you will get basic information about IT at IIIT Una and chemical engineering at HBTU Kanpur which will help you in comparing these two institutes.

One of my friends studied at HBTU Kanpur so I can give you the review of the chemical entering branch at HBTU.

HBTU Kanpur Chemical engineering branch has a good reputation and is a well-known branch in HBTU. Its department is also better than other engineering colleges of India.

The placement of the Chemical Engineering branch of HBTU is decent. There are other departments too in the chemical engineering branch such as OT, Food, PL, PT, etc, that have similar placements and hold a good record in placing students in reputed companies.

All three IIITs are established by MHRD and offer an excellent education to students.

• IIIT Kurnool is one of the five fully funded IIIT by MHRD. So, IIIT Kurnool charges a little less for courses as compared to IIIT Vadodara and IIIT Una. The faculty base at IIIT Kurnool is not that great.
• IIIT Kurnool and IIIT Una do not have a permanent campus. Their temporary campus is IIIT Kancheepuram and NIT Hamirpur, respectively. On the other hand, IIIT Vadodara has a permanent campus.

Fee and Placement details of the institutes are as follows.

Out of all the above, IIT Vadodara offers the best returns on investment (ROI). Also, the placement percentage of the institute is 100%. The companies that visit the campus are Coviam, ICICI Bank, Innovaccer, Amazon, Matlab, Paytm, Coding Ninjas, TCS, Capillary Technologies, and more.

In conclusion, IIIT Vadodara offers a lot of opportunities to learn and grow with your field choice. Among the three options, IIIT Vadodara will be the best choice.

I have a few friends from IIIT Una, so I think I can give you some insights about the institute.

IIIT Una a newly established institute and is monitored by NIT Hamirpur. Both share the same campus, classes, hostels, etc. But they have separate placements.

Based on what I heard from my friend I will say it is not wise to choose such a new institute. But the decision is yours. Here are some parameters based on which you can judge the institute.

• Class schedule
• Library
• WiFi facility
• Peer group
• Funds allotted for various competitions
• College reputation

Here is a brief outline of the two institutes.

Hope this helps with your decision.
