Hostel's facilities are not so good . Like here we have only one hostel for 1st year girls , 4 girls have to share a room in which you get your seperate bed , study table , and an almirah. They maintained Hygiene which is the most important aspect. Mess food is good .

Placement Experience:

I’d rate HIT’s placement opportunities as 7.5/10 overall. It’s very good for CSE, IT, and ECE, decent for Electrical and core branches, and improving every year with more companies visiting and better preparation programs. If you’re skilled and consistent — especially in coding, communication, and aptitude — you’ll almost certainly get placed before graduatin
