Course Curriculum Overview
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
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
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
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
