Which is Better for Computer Science?
Both IIT Madras and IIT Delhi are world-class institutions offering exceptional Computer Science programs. IIT Madras edges slightly ahead with a higher NIRF ranking (#1 vs #2), better average placement packages (₹21.5 LPA vs ₹20 LPA), and lower annual fees. However, IIT Delhi offers exceptional networking opportunities being in the capital and has a stronger alumni network in management and entrepreneurship. For purely technical roles and research, IIT Madras is the preferred choice.
