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

Placement Experience:

Placement here are going on pretty well considering the recession that hit the market in recent years,student become eligible for placements from the first sem of their final year , typically 7th semester for single degree students (BE) and 9th semester for dual degree students (Msc+BE),as per the recent cycle around 310+ companies including Google, MIcrosoft,Goldman sachs etc. had visited campus with offer majorly ranging from 18 to 27 lpa , the highest package last cycle (domestic) was for 65lpa and average aroun 21 lpa. The perecentage of students getting placed is above 80% and remaining usually go on for pursuing masters or already have a PPO from the Practice School Internship.I personally will be sitting for placements in my last year and will be hoping to land a good offer.

Placement Experience:

Internships starts from spring break of 4th sem and placements start from spring break of 6th sem ( if you don't get a PPO ) Many big companies like Microsoft , Oracle , DeShaw and Qualcom visit the college. More than 80% of student that are eligible for placements get placed while the others get off campus placements or opt for higher studies. My plans after getting th degree depends on the CTC of package I get offered. If it is not upto my expectation I will pursue higher education abroad.
