How is the CSE at NIT Delhi compared to NIT Raipur's?

I would recommend you go for CSE from better NITs or other institutes like PEC, IIIT, YMCA, and others. Even IIIT Delhi is a decent option if you are considering staying in Delhi only. The reason I am against NIT Delhi so strongly is because it’s new and its CSE course is yet to develop and reach a certain standard. It does have its own campus and the facilities are also very limited here.

• There are serious connectivity issues as the hostel buildings are very far from the main campus. The accommodation facilities are poor and not at par with NIT standards. 
• Being newly established it has a very poor placement scenario not comparable to the old NITs or other institutions like PEC Chandigarh, IIITs, etc.
• NIT Delhi does not have an active coding culture. The timetable is very rigid and the classes are conducted consequently without many breaks.
• The faculty is also underqualified and has only a few good professors. 

Ultimately, I will suggest that if you are seriously inclined towards CS, and are ready to explore endless opportunities in the same,  then consider joining some other NIT than Raipur or Delhi. Go for IIIT Delhi instead!

I know some people from both NIT Delhi and NIT Raipur, so I feel like I can give you some insight into them.

• NIT Raipur is older than NIT Delhi in terms of establishment, and it also has a strong alumni network. NIT Raipur was transformed from GEC to NIT in the year 2000.
• As one may expect, the campus is smaller than that of other NITs.
• The college is regularly working to develop a strong coding culture.
• It has a strong alumni network with the people working at Google, Amazon, Microsoft, UHG, Deloitte, and other MNCs.
• The junior-senior bonding on campus is amazing. Your seniors will be always available to assist and guide you.
• There are about 18 clubs and committees at NIT Raipur. You can join any clubs that interest you.
• The CSE department features two labs with decent internet access about 2 MBps download speed. The computer lab currently has i7 7th generation machines with 4 to 8 GB RAM.
• If you want to experience campus life, NIT Raipur is probably not the place to go because the campus is too small. NIT Raipur has greater hostel space, however, it is very limited after the second year, and the college has its own train station.

The table shows a brief overview of the institutions.

Although NIT Delhi has a locational advantage, NIT Raipur is the better alternative for CSE.
