For core branches BIT Sindri is better. CUSAT focuses on branches such as Environmental Science, Marine, etc. CUSAT fees are a little higher. If you aren’t getting your choice of branch at BITSindri, you can choose CUSAT.
BIT Sindri fees are economical. It has a good student culture, the seniors are very helpful. BIT Sindri placements are excellent. During the recent placement drive, students received an average CTC of INR 4.51 LPA. While the highest CTC offered was INR 10 LPA.
CUSAT Kochi and BIT Sindri both are good colleges and below are some of the deciding factors to choose between these two colleges.
One of my friends was qualified for both CUSAT and BIT Sindri and he was also very confused but he did his research, weighed all the Pros and Cons and chose BIT Sindri, and he was extremely satisfied with the decision now.
So consider all the options suitably and take the conclusion carefully. CUSAT is a better option if you are Keralite, otherwise why go to the south when you are not noticing anything exceptional or better compared to the colleges around.
