VIT and BITS both are excellent engineering schools in our country. Both of them are known for their academics and placements in the CSE department. A friend of mine has experienced all three institutes. During his time of admission, he was studying in VIT in the CSE department and then changed to BITS Goa.

• It is considered as the brightest students of VIT is equal to an average student of CSE in BITS Goa. 
• The reason for this is mainly the programs and events being held at the institution continuously and frequently. 
• BITS Goa has amazing faculties too which is an added bonus. 
• Almost every student in BITS Goa is involved in Google Summer of Code (GSOC) or related to Competitive Coding. 
• This enables and pushes the student towards better personality build and development. 

When compared to the NIT’s it all comes down to the NIT you’re comparing to. Older NIT’s like NIT Trichy have high scores even amongst premium education institutes for not just CSE branches but in every other major branch.
