What should I take: BSD in IIIT Hyderabad or CSE in IIIT-Vadodara?

If you are very interested in computer science and want to do something innovative in this field, you should attend IIIT-Vadodara. However, it may have its own set of advantages and disadvantages.

But if you are still confused about choosing CSE, you should consider civil engineering as it comes with great career opportunities.

Electrical, Mechanical, and Civil Engineering are core branches. It is always better to go for a core branch if you are not particularly interested in a specific branch. The placements for core branches are not ideal, and this is a well-known fact. However, these core branches are very durable, everlasting, and opportunistic fields, and they will continue to thrive as long as industries are thriving in India.

IIIT Vadodara is a new institute and the problem with newer institutes is that they aren't yet established, at least not up to the level of their tag. Some issues may include like small alumni network, faculty issues, fewer opportunities, and a lack of motivation.

According to the recent placement statistics, the highest and average CTC for IIIT Vadodara was 43 LPA and 13 LPA. While for IIIT Hyderabad the highest and average was 24 LPA and 85 LPA.

Considering the above factors I will say go for IIIT H BSD. It is definitely the better alternative.
