IT from KJ Somaiya is the better option. Since it is an autonomous college, you will get several benefits like - 

  • At KJ Somaiya, some electives and inter-disciplinary courses are introduced from the 3rd year onwards. So, you can easily get a grip on the subjects. You won’t find much difference between the IT syllabus of KJ Somaiya and the CS syllabus of Vivekanand. 
  • KJ Somaiya has its own start-up incubation cell. It is known as RiiDL. If you have a great project or startup idea, and you can manage to convince RiiDL, of the potential of your idea, you can get ample funding and resources. The institute also has an entrepreneurship-promoting body, BloomBox. If you have any start-up ideas, you can get their help regarding contacts and resources.
  • KJ Somaiya placements are biased towards IT and COMPS. Around 90% of students get placed in IT and CSE courses each year with an average CTC of INR 6 LPA.

These are the reasons that make KJ Somaiya a better option.
