Which is better, HBTU Kanpur or IIIT Pune?
IIIT Pune is comparatively a very new college, and its first batch passed out in 2020. On the other hand, HBTU Kanpur has a rich legacy. It has completed more than 100 years, and is one of the oldest engineering colleges in India.
As a result HBTU has a strong alumni network, and its graduates are working in different brands all across the world. Reputed MNCs look up to HBTU Kanpur for placements. Location-wise though, IIIT Pune has an upper hand, as Pune is a tech hub. Moreover, IIIT Pune has COEP as its mentor institution.
I would personally recommend HBTU Kanpur over IIIT Pune, given the former’s rich legacy over all these years. Placement-wise, even IIIT Pune is a good enough choice.
