Which one is better, IIIT-H CLD or IIT Bhubaneswar for ECE?
ECE is one of the new branches at IIT Bhubaneswar. The first batch of ECE will be out in 2020. Before 2016, electrical engineering in IIT Bhubaneswar was a combination of two streams EEE and ECE. After 2016, both of these courses were divided and a good number of core and software companies hired electrical engineers from IIT Bhubaneswar. The average placement package offered in 2019 was 11 LPA.
On the other hand, IIIT Hyderabad has witnessed domestic and international placement offers in 2020. There was a huge growth in the placement package from top recruiters namely Adobe, Google, Uber, Amazon, etc. The highest package offered in the year 2020 was 46 LPA and the average package was 21 LPA. A total of 117 companies visited the campus with 289 students getting placed in reputed companies. The students from the CSE department of IIIT Hyderabad received more placements than other sectors with an average package of 26 LPA. The students graduating with CLD can follow a career path in research and in top technology companies.
So, among these two, IIIT-H CLD has a slight edge over IIT Bhubaneswar ECE.
