Should I prefer CSE at NIT Calicut or ECE at NIT Warangal?
Posted On - Mar 23, 2021Choosing between CSE and ECE is a matter purely based on personal inclinations. While one branch may be good for you, it may not be for someone else, and vice versa.
However, in terms of both academics and placements, NIT Warangal clearly has the upper hand. NIT Warangal is among the top 3 NITs and is better than NIT Calicut in almost every aspect. Its laboratory facilities and faculty are among the best.

Although NIT Calicut has an edge in terms of the highest CTC, NIT Warangal's average package beats it. Average packages are a better means of evaluating the placement scenario, and that being said, NIT Warangal is a better option.
You might have a chance to get a seat in these two. But, choose wisely. See, every branch is unique in itself though teaching differs from college to college and so is learning. So, seize the opportunity you get and decide for yourself and be ready to live with it. If you do your research before opting for one you will find both being highly competitive branches.

So before going for one, introspect yourself with few questions as such:
- Where do you want to see yourself working in 5 years time or in 10 years time?
- What are the things that you want to be doing?
- Do you want to have high job security?
- Do you want work mobility?
- What will be your options after your graduation considering yourself and your family?
Again, CSE is a very rigorous program. Be prepared to work hard. CSE is the most sought-after course in NITs, but NITW is much better than NITC. So go for the better college. And ECE at NIT Warangal would be better, NITW is academically better and placements are good for the ECE department.
Also, don’t just limit yourself. There are also other branches to explore which the college offers.
