Remarks

I chose this because it was the only IIT, I was eligible for. I had no choice but to select this institution. In addition to this, my home town is nearby. So it helps me to go there whenever needed. After coming to the campus, at first I kind of regretted the decision since the permanent campus was yet to be completed, but after spending some time I stopped regretting.

Course Curriculum Overview

Faculties are all good, I don't know about the faculty student ratio, but I think it is somewhere close to 1:30. All the faculties are PhDs, and are working on some kind of project. If depends on the faculty, if the faculty is young than they are a perfect Allrounder. But if the faculty is old and aged then there teaching technique feels a bit different and difficult to grasp. Of course there are exceptions such as are respected deans and directors.

Class Size: 40Course Fees: INR 278000 per year

Internships Opportunities

I have went for two internship both of them did not offered any stipend. These internship weren't from college but I found them over LinkedIn these both were mechanical oriented and interesting to perform. I learnt a lot from them

Placement Experience

3.5

After completion of third year students are eligible for placements. There have been many companies who visited the for placements and internships. Some of them are LnT, TCS, AirAsia, etc. For better information you can check out our website.

Fee Structure And Facilities

If we talk about the facilities we are provided within campus then there's alot of room for improvement. There is no fee hike as of yet so can't say about that. Haven't received any job or internship from college so can't take about it.

Campus Life

3.5

Annual fest was good and don't have any reference to compare with since this was the first time we conducted it. Transit Campus is very lush green close to high way and a very beautiful sunset. Sports and fest could get some better fundings for betterment of equipment. There are many groups like random walk groups clubs like udghosh-the drama club, aesthetica-the arts club etc.

ISME: THIS IS ME !!

Course Curriculum Overview:

For jobs, it prepares you very well. You work through real case studies, Harvard business simulations, and a 4-to-6-month corporate internship, so you aren't completely clueless on day one at an office. If your goal is a PhD or pure research, though, it leans a bit too practical and corporate rather than deeply academic.

They have highly qualified and experienced teachers.
For a sports enthusiast like me, having a ground is great in college is great.
There are various types of events conducted very often which provides us exposure academically, culturally, socially and it also helps our social networking and connections.

Dislikes

I think infrastructure can be improved and maintained well, than it is now.
Placement services should be improved too.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose BCom because I was a commerce student in my PUC, and I wanted to master in the same field. This course has shaped my knowledge on accounts and finance which has been some sort of a passion for me. Accounts, tally, finance, are the studies that are to be applied by anyone who's working with numbers, finances or in banks, account sectors etc which I'm doing currently, and it has really helped me a lot. The only improvement in this course that I seek is practical applications and workshops that would definitely help students enhance their skills.

Likes

very first thing i like in the college is the wifi network,
the library which is very peace and silent
average places to take photos and nearby there is nandi hills to visit

Dislikes

i dislike the distance of the college, its too large, should walk soo much
the cost of stationaries in the general store
i dont think so faculy are that much expertise , only countable people worth it

Course Curriculum Overview:

see i have choosed this course because it is very relatable to CSE, coz my ranking was not sufficient to get this course. the course which i took "Information Science and Engineering" is really a good course. they make us real world engineers. the area they shld actually improve is, hiring worthable faculty.

Work load given is a lot and the pressure of submissions are unbareable
They expect a lot frm 1st sem students and forget the fact tht we jus started
Lot of teacher student rivalry and affecting the overall passing of the students

Course Curriculum Overview:

Course curriculum is amazing but again the aheets given and the expected submissions for a 1st yesr is too much and the pressure is high .the teaching methods r basically every 10 students r allotted to s mentor who then guides them thru the design process

The teaching faculty is the best here all the doctors who come to teach us are well trained and knowledgeable
The lab facilities are also very good here, we are having good access to the lab also
We are also getting easy access to the Hospital whenever we want to which is giving us good clinical knowledge

Course Curriculum Overview:

Ayurveda is holistic science in total to study about. Ayurveda helps us a lot when it comes to the application and clinical practice point of view. Ayurveda aims at mainly "Swasthasya swasthir rakshanam, athurasya vikar prashamanam" our entire curriculum is based on the aim of ayurveda which states protecting the health of a healthy person and also reversing the pathology of the diseased individual. Ayurveda mainly aims at the Doshas(vatta, pitta and Kapha) to treat the pathology and also to maintain the health of the healthy person. Ayurveda language is sanskrit so 1st year Sanskrit should be learnt properly. The term vise examination and periodic assessment are helping us to revise and learn the concept better.

I applied for CSE and MnC branches of all the 1st and 2nd gen IITs along with the 3rd gen IITs, my rank was about 4.8k so I knew I could get CSE only in the 3rd gen IITs out of which I felt IIT Dharwad was the best. My main reason for choosing IIT Dharwad was CSE, also that it was mentored by IIT Bombay, so the syllabus is quite tried and tested, also Dharwad is near to the tech hubs of the country like bengaluru, pune, mumbai, hyderabad which is good for someone who is really passionate about CSE.
