What should I prefer, ECE in NIT Silchar or CS in IIIT Guwahati?

Having friends studying at both the institutions, I can say that IIIT Guwahati is a new college and this college is outside the city. Both IIIT Guwahati and NIT Silchar are good in their own ways.

• IIIT Guwahati is a little expensive as compared to NIT.
• The placements at IIIT Guwahati are good. But it is advisable to take NIT Silchar as your option if you have interest in electronics.
• If you are only interested in the CSE branch then you can go for IIIT Guwahati instead.
• At NIT Silchar major IT companies like Microsoft visit the campus for placements.
• Most of the companies allow ECE students to sit for placements.
• You will get more opportunities at NIT Silchar than at IIIT Guwahati. Also, NIT Silchar has got better infrastructure than IIIT Guwahati.
• The college has got better sports facilities, better hostel facilities.

If you like maths then you can choose the CSE branch at NIT Silchar. If you want a good career start then you should definitely go for NIT Silchar.
