Lives in Allahabad

There are many reasons for suggesting you go for MNNIT Allahabad CSE over NIT Rourkela CSE.

MNNIT Allahabad has one of the oldest CSE branches so it boasts of a rich coding culture.
The institute enjoys good connectivity via airways and railways, and thus the quality and number of recruiters are better than Rourkela which doesn’t-even have an airport.
MNNIT Allahabad is the best NIT in North India considering both home state and open state cutoffs.
MNNIT Allahabad CSE placements are much better with the average standing at INR 27.57 LPA while NIT Rourkela CSE average package was recorded at INR 21.87 LPA.
MNNIT Allahabad is the 4th best NIT after Trichy, Warangal, and Surathkal.

These were some plausible reasons to choose MNNIT Allahabad over NIT Rourkela for CSE.

Studied IT from Delhi (2019).

MNNIT Allahabad is an excellent institution. It was the country's first college to offer a B. Tech. — CSE program.

Placements: In terms of placements, NIT Allahabad outperforms all other NITs, with this year's average of 17 LPA. Almost every major company that visits IITs visits MNNIT Allahabad on a regular basis.

Categories	NIT Rourkela	MNNIT
Course Fee	6.40 lakh	6.55 lakh
Placement Percentage	80%	90-100%
Highest CTC	42 LPA	45 LPA
Average CTC	15 LPA	17 LPA
Recruiting Companies	Oracle, Wipro, IBM, Capgemini, etc.	Goldman Sachs, Adobe, Oracle, Microsoft, etc.

MNNIT does not have a lot to brag about in terms of faculty, research, and MS opportunities. There are a few faculty members in the CSE department who are exceptionally good and eager to assist with research, while others are simply present. Collaboration with foreign universities for MS/Ph.D. is almost nil.

MNNIT is considered among the top 4 NITs in the country. Thus MNNIT will definitely be a better choice than NIT Rourkela.
