If you consider the official rankings, then NIT Warangal is better than NIT Calicut. But the reality is far from this. I don’t think the official rankings are credible enough to judge a college. Students need to consider other aspects also while choosing their college. For instance, proximity to home and the location of the college play a big role. That being said, Calicut is a great city with a good location. It has many places to explore such as restaurants and parks.
Students can also visit Goa which is quite close and enjoy short vacations on the beaches. good city and has some amazing restaurants. Also, Goa is nearby and so are many beach locations.
However, NIT Calicut has strict attendance criteria. So choose wisely!
One of my friends from school used to be a student of the NIT Calicut. I can share his experience at the institute.
My friend advises that you should expect the coursework to be rigorous. The institute also plans occasional trips to Ooty, Kochi, Goa, etc.
NIT Warangal has collaborated recently with ABB Power Grids India which will help in the creation of reliable and clean power. The launch of a unique Master of Technology in Smart Electric Field is a part of the said collaboration.
NIT Warangal also offers MBA programs that are part-time in nature for working professionals. There are 13 specializations along with an option for extending the duration.
