The verdict
Strong fit
This is one of the most prestigious CS undergrad seats in India. With a 100% placement rate, an average CTC of ₹45 LPA, and a curriculum spanning core systems to cutting-edge AI, IIT Kanpur CSE is built for students who want to build, research, or lead in tech. The only real gatekeeper is JEE Advanced, and the total fee of ~₹9.18 lakhs is modest for the ROI you get.
