One of my cousins studying at IIIT Vadodara said that it is much better than IIIT Surat. Following are some of the facts on why IIIT Vadodara would be a better option than IIIT Surat:

• IIIT Vadodara is an institute of national importance that will give brand value to a degree.
• IIIT Vadodara is running BTech in two specializations – Computer Science and Information Technology. They do not offer ECE, whereas IIIT Surat offers B.Tech in CSE and ECE.
• The coding culture at IIIT Vadodara is growing at a fast pace. If you are into coding, then you will get your desired environment in learning coding skills.

Other things that make IIIT Vadodara stand out are the excellent faculty and the sheer passion and enthusiasm of students for coding. They encourage students from every department to take part in the coding clubs or learn coding from scratch. This is something that other colleges do not provide. If the branch is not your concern, you can go for IIIT Vadodara otherwise opt for ECE at IIIT Surat.
