Students think that PICT is old so it’s better and yes it’s been around for 20 years since PICT’s inception and it has developed whereas IIIT-Pune is just 2 years old and has the potential for tremendous growth.
If you are planning on pursuin Computer Science then choosing PICT will be better than VIT. It offers better placement opportunities. According to the recent placement highlights the average and highest CTC offered by PICT is 7.75 LPA and 91 LPA respectively.
Don’t choose VIT, just because it is autonomous. However, it does offer flexible academics and less number of lectures. If you get a backlog, you can clear it within one month.
PICT is one of Maharashtra's leading computer science and information technology institutions. The coding environment is quite competitive. There are numerous technical events held to test your knowledge. The placements have been slightly lower in the last few years. The main recruiters at the institute are TCS, Accenture, Cybag, etc.
NIT is doing well in CSE placement. Nowadays, the placement committee is providing better opportunities. Polaris FT, IBM, Samsung, Amazon, and Tesco HSC are the top recruiters. The average salary package offered of 5 lakhs per annum, whereas the highest is around 15-20 lakhs.
