Which should I prefer among IIT Hyderabad EE and IIIT Hyderabad CSE?

I don’t think you should even consider joining IIT Hyderabad EE when you have the option of IIIT Hyderabad CSE given the fact that it’s the 2nd best in India after IIT Bombay CSE. The course is very challenging and IIIT Hyderabad does not have a lively atmosphere like IITs. Rather, the entire focus is on CS courses and research work. Although the campus is very small and lacks any extracurricular facilities, it’s heaven for coders. The academic workload is terrible with intense competition among peers. 

• So, if you are certain of your genuine interest in coding and are ready to get committed to it for the rest of your life, nothing will serve you better than IIIT Hyderabad.
• But if you prefer a more flexible learning environment with more courses to choose from, IIT Hyderabad EE is the right option for you. Here, you can explore more electives apart from EE and in fact, EE itself has some computer courses like data science, machine learning, etc. 

Overall, both are excellent choices, and it’s only a matter of preference. Go for IIIT if you are certain of CS and go for IIT if you aren’t sure of your inclinations. Either way, you will not be disappointed.
