What Students Say

Likes

I like the infrastructure, cleanliness maintained in the campus
Placement wise it is good.Many companies visit campus for placements
Facilities provided in terms of labs, library are good

Dislikes

Course is too hectic.No time for extracurriculars

Course Curriculum Overview

Some subjects like DBMS, OOPS , Operation system , computer networks , data structures and algorithms which are taught in IT branch are asked in interviews. If we perfectly make notes and learn these for semester exams we can easily ace interviews. Course curriculum is very hectic leaving no time for stidents to even breathe. It leads to stress and anxiety.

Class Size: 115Course Fees: INR 200000 per year

Internships Opportunities

3.5

Many companies like google, goldman sachs, oracle, arcesium, cultfit, unifyapps, atlassian, de shaw etc visit campus for internships. Mostly they come to hire for swe/sde roles. More number of companies come for fourth year placements.

Placement Experience

4.5

Quite a good number of companies visit campus and tge number varies year to year. Internship drive starts from third year and students around 80 to 100 secure summer internships. More companies come for fourth year placement.

Fees and Financial Aid

So the fee structure depends on the category that you belong to. I pay around 2 lakhs every year. For general/ obc students, fee will be around 2 lakhs. But for sc/st fee its around 55000-60000 annually. There are various scholarship schemes available on nsp.You can apply by checking your eligibility. Institute too provides scholarships based on merit and income.

Campus Life

3.5

Infrastructure is quite good.Campus is well maintained and cleanliness is ensured. There are three annual fests. Effervescence is the annual cultural fest, aproksha is the technical fest and asmitha is the annual sports fest. There are different clubs for students to participate.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

Hostel facilities are not that great. There is no single room allocation for girls since there is lack of space. We have to be in sharing till fourth year.But in case of boys the scenario is little different. They get single rooms in fourth year. Mess food is terrible. Hostel facilities are affordable.

Hostel Fee: INR 25000 per year

Admission

During josaa counselling, I choosed to put IIIT Allahabad at the top because I heard that overall placements are good.I applied for NIT warangal cs too but couldn't get it because of rank cutoff. So I proceeded with IIIT Allahabad.

Faculty

3.5

Some professors are very good.Their teaching quality is top notch while some dont teach well and lack teaching skills. You can approach the faculty for doubts. But no matter how good the professor is we have to put effort from our side to score well. Some of the best faculties here are vijendra singh , navjot , saurabh verma etc.You will mid sem and end sem examinations. Many students fail in Maths subjects like linear algebra etc. Some subjects are of no relevance but there are some which are relevant for your placements and interviews

Other Applied Colleges

NIT Warangal | Bachelor of Technology [B.Tech] (Computer Science and Engineering)

I was getting ece branch according to my rank.So I didnt opt this college.

Everything was good except placements.
Campus was so engaging , has a beautiful campus , one can get to learn a lot .
Faculties was from either IIT's or NIT's with good humor and knowledge.

Dislikes

Student has to suffer a lot during placements for students who are from Biotechnology .
No one takes responsibility , if a student is unplaced.

Placement Experience:

From 7th semester students become elligible for campus placements.From top companies like google , microsoft to new startups like Raspa , Protium all companes visits , Highest package was 96 LPA , 40% students get placed , rest suffers , if one is from core branch then they get chances for PSUs and other organization.

What I See at SRM Ghaziabad

Likes

I really appreciated the college clubs and hackathons.
There are variety of events throughout the semester, something to always keep you on your feet.
Some of the faculties are really really experienced and have a unique approach that captures the attention of all the students.

Dislikes

Not many hotspots around campus to hang out after classes.
The infrastructure of the hostel can be improved a lot.
Food in mess is not great, the menu is not very diverse. Everything has aloo.

Placement Experience:

Placements are actually impressive with our college having the highest placement rate among others in the region. We usually achieve ~90% placement. We get opportunities from many large groups, such as Infosys, TCS, JPMC, BNY, Logitech, etc etc The list goes on. The highest package that I saw was of around 1Cr from a company I don't remember their name, but it was based out of SF and was a really great one. Average placement we see is around 12-20LPA packages.

Likes

I liked the faculties of my college they are very supportive and helpful towards the students.
I like the curriculum which more learning based then theory
I like the support that is provided by the college towards the placements of the students

Dislikes

I don't like the attendence system of our college it very hectic to students
There is lot of focus on exam in my college which I don't like
Syllabus are not updated in our college we are studying very old things

Course Curriculum Overview:

I opted for this course because I want to be a software engineer. I chose my course because it was well-informed, and my interest was also in this field from the start. The faculty members and platform were also quite good for nurturing personal skills and making one a skilled and disciplined person in life. I wish this course would focus more on practical things rather than being theoretical. Events, fests, and the campus environment are also very good and pleasing to the eye. Connectivity was also easy from all around the world due to its location. Scholarships were also awarded to almost every student.

SEEING IIITALLAHABAD, THE STUDENTS POV

I choosed IIIT ALLAHABAD over other top NITs and IIITs on the following basis. 1. Small number of batch size which makes it quite enjoyable to attend any Campus event. The batch size for one year is approx 440-450 while in NITs, it is over 1200-1500 due to availability of many other branches. Less students = More Fun 2. Excellent Placement record. As we all know, the placement record is top notch here compared to other colleges. Average of 25 Lakhs is very good even in recession. 3. The infrastructural facilities of hostels is very good here. Comparing this to NITs who have 3-4 students sharing a room, here that number is 2 for first two years and after they you are allotted single rooms....Read More

IIITA - pros and cons

I got this college through kosaa. This college considers jee mains rank. I chose this college over the others because of its excellent academic and great placement cell. This college is competing with some of the top iits in terms of placement and research. The cutoff for btech in ECE was 8.3k rank and for IT it was 5.4k rank in jee mains. This college takes students through JEE Mains only. The admission process for this college is quite easy. Once your seat is confirmed by kosaa you just have to visit this college and the rest is taken care of by the authorities. You just need to have proper documents. If you have been admitted int hese college through some category then u need to have a proper category certificate. Without proper documents the admission will not happen. The admission process takes about 1-2 hours including the wait time. The admission process is 4-5 days long and you can come on any one of these days and complete your admission. After admission you will receive you hostel room and you can immediately shift into it....Read More
