Course Curriculum Overview

4

I wanted a CS core course with a modern curriculum, so IIIT was the place that was best suited for me. We have better CS course than most IITs in the countries. We also have special application focused courses in lieu of interships so all students can experience what its like to work for an actual company. The course load is very heavy with very frequent assignments. This can be deal better. We have 4 exam a sem=> 2 quizs, mid sem and end sem. We have surprise quizzes occasionally

Placement Experience

4

Placements appear to be good on the outside. But, no one knows the correct state as the college brought in lower paying companies to get the 100% tag. But, in CSE the top packages are pretty high north of 50 LPA. Apple, google and microsoft come to IIIT every year recruiting 10 to 15 people each

Fees and Financial Aid

The course fee is 3, 50, 000, but expect to pay around 5 LPA. IIIT also has a policy of frequent fee hikes. You don't have to buy books as most of them are provides. Also hostel is madatory as class and exam can happen late at night (6 to 8).

Campus Life

1.5

Campus life is pretty boring to be honest. IIIT is not the place you want to come to if you want to have fun. The campus is pretty small and the college doesn't have a diverse range of facilities as an IIT. We also have very few events in college, at best 3 with very low external attendance. We also very few things to do nearby => ie DLF street (food at late night but very unhygienic) and sarath city mall

Hostel Facilities

3.5

The hostel is decent and clean. Albeit small the rooms are double sharing, might be triple next year. The messes are relatively very good, we have 4 messes => 3 veg and 1 non veg But, the cafetarias are not good with no variety.

Admission

My mode of admission was UGEE. You need more than 97 percentile in mains to qualify for it. The admission process was much simple that the common allocation ie. josaa After writing UGEE, you are asked to give online interviews and you are asked to provide a preference order. => A small issue with the UGEE mode of admission is that you can only choose one of the dual degree courses. There are 2 rounds of allocation so based on that you are allocated a seat the procedure in each round is similar to Josaa

Course Curriculum Overview:

I like that the course doesn't feel outdated. Along with the regular subjects we spend a lot of time on coding, projects, and problem solving so it feels connected to what companies actually expect. As a second year student i already feel like i am building skills that i will be able to use during internships and placements and not just preparing for semester exams

Placement Experience:

No batch has graduated yet so there's no record of placement data yet. But more than 200 students got internships. Also the unique point of NIAT is students gets internships from their 1st year itself. NIAT has connection in the industry also its unique teaching style, this allows 1st year students to get internships. Although there is no pass out batch yet, still many people got placed in good companies.

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 Experience:

The placements are comparatively more in this college, as there is more industry exposure. Students are eligible for placements from around 3-2 (3rd yr-II sem) to 4-2 (4th yr- II sem). Companies like Amazon, Cognizant, NCR often visit the campus. The highest package offered last year was 1.2 cr (International offer). Around 90% students who were eligible got placement. My plan is to get a decent package after the degree.

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
