Joining KIIT will be a better option. The institute gives students the freedom to explore the things that interest them. It’s easy to score good grades with a little bit of effort. So, you will have a lot of time on your hand to explore and learn. The institute offers good placements.

What should I choose? CSE from "KIIT University" or IT from "College of Engineering and Technology, Bhubaneswar"?

It is suggested you choose CSE at KIIT University. One of my friends studied there. According to him, there is no comparison between the branch of KIIT CSE and CET. The companies visiting KIIT include major names such as Microsoft, Amazon, SAP, Dell, Intel, HP. Placements are one of the things you must check before entering a university. KIIT offers good investments. The entire academic and non-academic exposure at KIIT is far greater. The faculty members are qualified from IITs and top NITs. They are skilled and cooperative. Categories CSE at KIIT University Course Fee 12.91 lakh Course Duration 4 years Placement Percentage 80% Highest CTC 39 LPA Average CTC 10-12 LPA Recruiting Companies Dell, HCL, Infosys, Capgemini, etc. The program applies to CSE, except that in the first semester you have to study biology. KIIT develops practical applications for students as well as the theory of study.

KIIT University conducts the KIIT Entrance Exam (KIITEE) annually for admissions into its various programs, primarily focusing on Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics of the 11th and 12th-grade syllabi. The exam is online and considered easy, with results released in May, followed by counselling. The process is straightforward with no interviews, and a minimum of 60% in 10+2 is required for B.Tech courses. The admission process includes a free application, a 11,000 INR counseling fee, and a 65,000 INR refundable fee if admission is not taken.

Approximately 30,000 students are admitted each year, with branch preferences decided during counseling based on rank. The faculty is well-qualified, with many holding PhDs and some being IIT alumni. The student-to-faculty ratio is favorable, ensuring personalized attention. The curriculum emphasizes practical learning with strict academic standards. Tuition fees range from INR 1.5 to 1.75 lakh per semester, totaling around INR 16 lakh for the entire B.Tech course. Hostel and mess fees vary, with additional registration and exam fees per semester.

Scholarships are offered based on KIITEE ranks and academic performance, with opportunities for loan assistance. Placement records are strong, especially for CSE/IT with nearly 100% placement, while core branches witness 30-40%. Annually, over 400 companies, including Amazon and Microsoft, recruit from the campus, offering about 5000 job offers. The highest package recorded was 63 LPA, with an average of 6-8 LPA for CSE/IT students. Internship opportunities are supported from the 6th semester with active training and placement cell involvement.

Various scholarships, including tuition fee waivers and merit-based awards, help offset the costs, which range from INR 17 to 25 lakhs, including accommodation and meals. The university's investment in quality education, facilities, and placement opportunities is considered worthwhile despite the relatively high costs.
