Insights of IIIT Surat

Location, college status(institute of national importance), easy travel from and to my hometown. For admission had to participate in JoSAA counseling which was scheduled a month after the results of JEE advanced was released.

Only two branches available- CSE and ECE. Chose CSE as more in demand and better placement records. Faculty is average, keeps changing as it is a new institute. Teaching method is also average. Student ratio of boys to girls is 9:1.

I was offered internship at Ugam solutions. Although the internship criteria is not very good but placements are no e in the college. The internship was of two months duration. I got to work on a real time projects with a huge team of experienced professionals and interns from other colleges.

From the third year the students become eligible for internships and from fourth year for placements. At the end of third year, the students take summer internship at some industry. At the completion of the internship, a PPO (pre placement offer) is provided by the company.

No financial assistance from college. Scholarships given by state government was only available. Fee Structure is fixed. Good job offers from campus. Many companies visited which offered 12lpa and above.

College Life is average. Since college does not have a campus of its own( share the campus of SVNIT Surat) all the clubs and fest are hosted and conducted by the mentoring institute only. The land has been finalised and construction of an individual campus is ongoing.

Hostel is same for all SVNIT and IIIT Surat students. It is within the campus itself. The hostel mess is nice. There is also a canteen within the hostel. Hostel has around 800 and above rooms. There is a very casual attendance criteria I'm the hostel.

No group discussion or interview was there for admission into the college. Had to clear JEE main to get a seat in the college. After clearing the exam, I had to participate in online JoSAA counseling where I got a seat in the college. Then there was the document verification process at the end of counseling.
