Remarks
My admission was through Jee Main. The cutoff for CSE course was rank around 22000. Application form was found on JoSAA website. IIIT NR also intakes students through their spot rounds and CG reservation initiatives. I think the 50% reservation to NTPC and Chhattisgarh Govt. Students should be reduced so that more talented people present outside the state can get admission.
Course Curriculum Overview
I chose this course because of my deep passion for coding and conputer science. Also, the institute started a new course on Data Science and AI which made aligned towards this institution. The faculty student ratio here is quite decent (around 25:1). All of the professors/ assistant professors here are highly qualified and have pursued their PhDs from prominent college across India. The term exams are timely (but we disrupted a bit in some semesters due to CoVid 19) and some of the courses are really tough and you need to study really jard to score good in them.
Placement Experience
The students are eligible for campus placements before 7th semester (after summer break of third year). Students have to do 6 months internship in the companies for their entire 8th semester. Last year, 45 companies visited our college for campus placements. The highest on- campus offer was 23 lakhs pa and average package is 12-13 lakhs. We have a 100% placement ratio since our inception. My plan is to go for Masters in USA after my BTech.
Fees and Financial Aid
The tuition fees is less as compared to other NITs and IITs. The cost to study is also minimal. There are many financial assistance schemes but they are limited to certain states/ low income families. I couldn't avail any financial assistance as I didn't fall into any of the categories. I got an off campus internship to work at Goldman Sachs this summer. They are giving me a stipend of 1 lakh per month for 2 months.
Campus Life
The annual techno-cultural fest is named Technovate. It is conducted by the Student Activity Centre (SAC). It is conducted in the month of March. Also, the entrepreneurship cell conducts E-Summit to promote the spirit pf entrepreneurship among young students. The library isn't well equipped, we have a very few books and the library is really small. But if you want something and request it to the faculty, they can make it available in the library. Sports are played daily in our campus. We have a football ground, basketball court, volleyball courts, badminton courts, TT tables, cricket ground and many more. Also, we conduct an annual intracollege fest named Aaramb. SAC is the social group under which numerous coding, quizzing, ML, singing, debate, dance, drama clubs are run for and by the students
Hostel Facilities
All the students need to stay in the hostel compulsorily. We are alloted single rooms (or double room for single person) to stay. All the basic facilities are present on each floor ( Water, bathrooms, fire extinguishers, etc). The food quality is sometimes good but sometimes it is not edible. The mess committee works really hard on improving the menu. There is no seperate registration process for hostel.
