Is NIT Raipur's IT branch good? Is there any chance of branch upgradation in NIT Raipur from IT to CSE?

Well, as far as my senior has said, to each its own. What matters at the end of the day is what you make of it. Much like CSE, IT basically entails coding. Reading about Anudeep Nekkati can provide you some inspiration that can help you in kickstarting your endeavors. A company that takes CSE students also accepts IT students. With hard work and a little bit of luck, in four years, you might end up in such a prosperous place you wouldn’t have imagined.

My senior prefers NITs over private universities. In NIT Raipur, you will be capable of switching to CSE if you want. A CPI of 9+ would do the trick. There are endless opportunities and you will have fewer restrictions to pursue your interest.

The placements of IT/CSE have improved significantly over the years. As for the upgradation from IT to CSE, that is also easy if you study with diligence.
