4.5

The course is focussed on Computer Science and the curriculum is structured around it .Unlike other colleges where computer science courses contain useless courses like engineering drawing and chemistry IIIT has structured its course around computer science as a major and its applications is different areas allowing students to get an insight in the research perspectives of the branch which are absent in most of the colleges in India including the top level IIT's.

College Events

4.5

there has been many events recently happened. one of the biggest events was Distinguished Lecture on "Deep Visual Understanding from Deep Learning"which was really useful for computer science students and mainly focus on gaining knowledge and helps students in their own research and Advances in Machine Learning and Big Data with Industrial Applications really lead to one of the greatest project on big data analysis.The college has two major cultural events the freshers for the new coming freshers to participate in and get introduced to the college life felicity is the main college cultural fest and involves the whole college celebrating and having fun at various events. The college also has an intra college music festival called november Jam and a sports day. The college hosts the technical fest with felicity which includes codecraft a competitive programming contest and Gordian knot a mathematics oriented contest.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee is pretty feasible where most colleges are charging 2 to 2.5 Lacs per semester IIIT only charges about 1.25 Lac per semester including tuition and mess fee. The college hardly has any other expenses they charge from students and the charges for the books are returned to students at the end of their college education.

Fees and Financial Aid

The college in collaboration with telangana state government offers scholarship to students whose families having net income less than 1 lakh per annum.

Campus Life

4.5

The college doesnt focus much on sports but there are some competitions being held with other colleges as a friendly matches.

Hostel Facilities

4

The students are given sharing rooms for the first 2 years and the rooms are pretty spacious and comfortable the rooms don't have air conditioning and don' t require any such facility for most of the year as Hyderabad has cool and humid weather most of the year. The college has four messes to choose from offering different types of food all of which are hygenic and edible.

Alumni/Alumna

The seniors are a helpful bunch of people who stand as idols for the juniors guiding them on how to progress and helping them accomplish their goals. The college is relatively small in size and is a tightly knit community and because of this the alumni network is small and spread far apart but they are helpful whenever possible.They help you every condition. Even ours becomes TA's and help us to have good grades. They are very friendly and college has one Alumni club.

Exam Structure

Each semester involves 3 exams 2 mid semester exams and 1 final which are separated by a month.First year is pretty hectic with a lot of labs and classes everyday from 8:30am to 5pm but the 2nd and 3rd year are pretty relaxed and allow students to focus on their personal goals.

Faculty

4.5

The faculty of the college is adept in their subjects and the college boasts of most of the faculty having obtained their PHD from ivy league colleges. The professors are masters at their craft and promote students to pursue their subjects further if they wish to do so in research perspectives.Its like not the best but not the worst. There are really some professors which are really cool. IIIT Hyderabad is a research university and main focus here is on research.

Placement Experience:

From 4th sem itself students are eligible for placements. Although students get access to paid internships from their 1st year itself, just they need some effort. But as NIAT is yet new and no batch has passed out yet so we still don't have the exact placement percentage rate. But as we are getting paid internships from 1st year itself so it's very evident that placement would also be good

Course Curriculum Overview:

My college course curriculum is outdated .As im studying in computer science and engineering,i wpuld love to study about technological aspects and grow as a software engineering but in the course curriculam they teach my about mechanical workshops,There were no practical experience it jsut understanding the concept with theoritical part . i would love lo code but my college wastes entire time by helping with electricals,meachanical basics. i dont think is it really necessary for me understand in all the feilds they think that student should perform in all the fields as im in computer science and engineering student ,They should teach me more about coding and computer ,how it industries works and how these technology enhacning ,the arenot even explore about all these sectos they only teaching me about fundametals of all the subjects which is never useful for my studies . as i am in final year of btech i thought learning and deepdiving into computerscience and engineering subjects is more greater than learning all sector fundamentals,The area they need to improve is removing some of the oudated syllabus from their ciricullum and enhcing with the pratical experience not to teach only theoritical part. they have to teach all the areas with realtime examples. The timings of exams is very good .we do have 2 mid exams and one semester final exams for each sem and the subjects feels meduim level difficulty

Placement cell is least active.. Few good companies like Infosys, amazon, TCS etc visited but the average package is of 1-2 LPA and only 25-30% of students whose all exams are cleared can sit in the placement cell. The highest package is of 8LPA. My plan is to move abroad for higher studies.. The students after completion of 6th sem can sit in placement cell

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for campus placements after their 6th semester. The companies start visiting in 7th and 8th semesters. The companies are not much good and are mostly service based. So the placement statistics are also not much good. The highest placement last year was 10 lpa and the median placement was around 4.1 lpa. The placements were starting from 2.5 lpa. The better option for students is to apply for off-campus placements or start preparing for competitive exams
