If you plan to change to CS, it is quite difficult to shift from EE to CS at IIT Hyderabad. It is easier for other branches to change to CS.

Mechanical and Chemical students get CS during branch change, but the chances are less for Electrical students. This is the experience of one of my friends at IIT Hyderabad.

CS at IIT Hyderabad is better than CS at other new IITs. IIT Hyderabad is one of the best among the new IITs. IIT Hyderabad is showing tremendous growth.
