Which is better for CS, IIT Delhi or IIT Madras?

Question

Rihan Dutta · Accepted Answer

If you're really into Computer Science, consider IIT Kanpur over IIT Delhi or IIT Madras. Don't just look at the opening ranks; do some digging into each institute. Here are some things to think about when comparing them:

Faculty
Facilities
Alumni network
Academics

Looking at these, IIT Kanpur often comes out on top compared to IIT Delhi and IIT Madras. IIT Madras might have a higher opening rank because of where it is located.

Here’s a quick look at IIT Kanpur’s CS program:


Highest CTC	62 LPA
Number of recruiters	300
Major recruiters	Infosys, IBM, Deloitte
Course fee	8.30 lakhs

Most big tech companies are near big cities like Mumbai, Pune, Delhi, and Chennai, which can affect placements in Kanpur. But what you learn at IIT Kanpur will help you a lot in the long run, and that's why its alumni do so well.

I'd say focus on the course content and faculty more than immediate placements or location.

Its a Question about your future!
