NIT Colleges: Students graduating with a B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) from NITs also receive excellent packages. In August 2024, Srishti Chirania, a student from NIT Jamshedpur, received a package of ₹1.23 crore.

JEE Main: After passing the JEE Main exam, most students aspire to gain admission to a prestigious engineering college for B.Tech Computer Science Engineering (CSE). The main reason for this course's popularity is the excellent career opportunities and attractive salary packages it offers. This is why top JEE Advanced rankers usually want to get admission in B.Tech CSE at IIT Bombay or other leading IITs. If admission to an IIT is not possible, students try for admission to NITs, where admission is granted based on the JEE Main score.
