Course Curriculum Overview
The major reason I have chosen this college is that in this college we don't have to study useless subjects which are not relevant to your platform like in DTU and NSUT, in the first year they teach everyone physics and chemistry. I don't have any problem with that. It's just that they also teach physics and chemistry to every department because they are going to branch change after the first year/first sem. In IIITD, all are tech branches; there's no branch as mechanical, chemical or metallurgical, so even though our first sem, we have started learning tech courses that are relevant. We have studied courses in Python, Linear Algebra and digital circuits in semester 1, which is not in any IIT or anywhere they teach in sem-1. In semester 2, we are going to learn a course called DSA in CPP, which, in DTU/NSUT or In any IIT, I don't think any student has done DSA in their first year. All the courses are relevant, and you can even choose the courses you want to take in the next semester through your ERP some courses are really interesting but also hard, so if someone is maintaining a CGPA, he or she might not be very much interested in taking hard courses just because they are interesting. It may vary from person to person, so after every semester ends, you have to go to your ERP and register for the courses you want to take. In the Fourth/ThIrd year, you can also take limited online courses of your choice.
Internships Opportunities
I can't give you the exact detail's because intership's are offered in end of the second year and I am in semester-2. but the companies that take participates in the internship offers the highest placement our internship's recruiters are Amazon, NVIDIA, Adobe, Google and Microsoft. i don't remember all of them but year these all are present in the time of internships. But getting and internship is really hard like first you must have a minimum criteria to give the internship test a minimum CGPA like 8 after that you will be eligible to give the internship company test and after scoring a good score in internship exam of the companies you get an interview after that you get selected. Getting chances to get a better internship is not that high but if you try hard you will get a good internship within the campus
Placement Experience
IIITD have a really strong and successful placement cell, and the college had really good campus placement in the year 2024 across the sea and 51 LPA; it's not like only one person has got the 51LPA package `15-20 people got the highest package over the seas, and the Indian highest package is 49LPA, and all of the highest packages are the PPO's these offers are made to the student who did on placement internships companies like Google, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Adobe, Flipkart and amazon all these highest placement giving companies are present in the time of the internship and offers internship and these students who secure this internship are the one who are going to place the highest package in the college. we all allotted our mentor's, I am allotted with my mentor in fourth year and one of the top placement offer student and my friend's mentor is also in top placed people in campus but he was not one of the PPO cracker. he had placed during the placement session. A student, I don't know his/her name, but he has done 1 year of internship and extended his degree of four years to five years. My plan is to crack an internship in one of the top companies. All the top companies are recruiter of IIITD, most of them.
Fees and Financial Aid
I have paid my tuition fee for the first year ( both sem-1 and sem-2 ) which is about 4,50,000. To be more specific my semester one fee is 2,00,000 and my semester two fee is around 2,50,000. My tuition fee's structure is First-year --> 4,50,000 second year --> 4,75,000 third year --> 5,00,000 fourth year --> 5,25,000 and all of these fees are tentative, their total is about 19,55,000 which is just tuition fees and if you want to stay in the hostel then the hostel fees and mess fees are different and the total would surely cross the 2,00,000 or maybe 24,00,000. I don't know, I mean I am a day scholar so I didn't even bother to calculate the total fee. By the end of any semester, you will get an email to fill out the fee before the given date, and you can pay part-wise in that it's all your choice but you have to pay it before the deadline, if someone is not able to pay it before the deadline then a heavy fine is imposed on him/her and the fine keep on increasing until you pay it and by any chance, if fine reached a certain level then major action can be taken against the student. You pay the fees by login through ERP, I don't know if they take cash or not but I have paid my fee online. During my JAC counselling when I locked the seat after the fourth they took payment of 95,00,000 which if I don't withdraw from the counselling will be contributed to my fees or sem1 and the rest of the fees I have submitted after my admission. There's no fee reduction in my case ( for OBC candidates), I don't know about SC/ST but there's no fee reduction for OBC candidates even after NCL. There are many scholarship plans some are buying you a laptop or giving 40k at max to buy you a laptop, some paying some part of your college fee but every scheme has particular criteria and most of them have a family income that should be less than 6 LPA. and all the scholarship and all is not valid on the first year so you have to pay that by your own even if you are avail to any scholarship.
Campus Life
Our college organises only on annual and technical fest ODC which is in 2025 FEB, In 2025 it's going to be my first time attending the fest so I don't know much about it. But in 2024, they didn't conduct the ODC. Rather, they organized a better induction for a new batch. In our time of induction, they called Mayur, one of the standup comedians into IIITD. Our college library is the best, like all kind of books are available in our library and our college also offers a kindle premium which you can borrow through library. Our some of the TA's office hours are conducted in library group study session. There are many small steps that every college has taken for the day scholars, like they have started a cab service for day scholars; in this cab services there will be a cab that drops you at the college/ college to metro station at every half-hour slot. Our college has all kinds of sports activities, I can't even name them all, but I can assure you any sports you want to play in IIITD you have it in IIITD, like in my case I like badminton and IIITD have 3 badminton courts. You can issue shuttle and badminton; all are available 24/7 and if you are interested, you can participate in it at the beginning of the semester. Our college also has lots of clubs you will get to know at the time of induction. I don't remember all of them, but there are clubs for Electronic nurds, Haryana students, an astrological club, a hacker club, a coding club, an anime club and a drawing club all I remembered. There are many more's but I don't remember them
Admission
I was aiming for an IIT from the start, so I cracked my advance on the first attempt. Still, I was not able to secure a good rank because of that, I wasn't able to get a CSE-related degree in Teir-1 even Teir-2 IITs, and all I got was I still remember IIT BHU civil and IIT JAMMU Mechanical, so I didn't take any IIT and withdraw from Jossa because, in my mains rank, I was not able to get any better NIT CSE branch. I entered In jac, where the leading choice is between NSUT and IIITD; DTU was never I wanted or even wished to be there. In round four of JAC, I have two choices: go to the IIITD CSAI branch and pay a heavy fee daily up and down 25km or take NSUT CSE, pay the affordable cost, and the NSUT campus is 6km away. Everyone, even my brother, thought NSUT would be a better call, but I chose IIITD because IIITD just opened in 2000. Only in 24 years have the packages of NSUT( opened in 1983 ) and IIITD been almost equal, so my gut feeling says that IIITD would be a better call, so I am here at IIITD. There are many other reasons also, like 1) NSUT, in the first year, I have to study chemistry, physics and metallurgy, even in the CSE branch, but in IIITD, it's not the case. 2) I liked the campus of IIITD more than NSUT 3) IIITD always stays up to date; at today's date, the latest technologies are Quantum computers, which IIITD have and NSUT doesn't. IIITD even also launched the course for the CQT for third/ fourth year, so that is what i meant when I said IIITD is always up to date 4) IIITD doesn't allow companies in placement cells if they offer less than 8 LPA ( I don't know the exact).
Faculty
The faculty-to-student ratio in semester 1 is 300 students in a section whose class is taken by one professor, so I would say 1 to 300. Despite the faculty-to-student ratio, the professor is still approachable and interactive with the class; as I already mentioned, IIITD Faculties are better than some IITs. The semester is about 4 months, and every subject grade depends from professor to professor. Some professors take marks for attendance, and some don't. Some conduct graded quizzes every week, while some conduct them every 2 weeks. Some professors give assignments every week; some don't; it all depends on the professor. In our course of HCI, we have assignments every week, and besides that, we graded quizzes every 2 weeks and mindset and ended exams. All our classes are in two major buildings in the Old lecture hall complex or in the new lecture hall complex; due to this, it is really easy for us to attend the next class after one, unlike in DTU, where you have to go on this building for your chemistry class then 2km away another building where your next class is going to take place. My favourite professor is Pankaj Jalote, sir, who taught us Python in semester 1; he really made coding concepts like recursion and OOP so easy, and I love it. There is not a single faculty whom I don't like; all our professors teach very well.
Night Life
In our college, you don't get any specific time to hang out after classes because YOu have lot's of assignments and upcoming Quizez but that is when you want to score 9 or 9+ CGPA. In my case I don't want to score 9++ so after the classes we go to badminton court and spend most the day there and at night libraries are open and labs are also open if you want to study but don't have a good laptop so you can study in labs using college's laptop, you can also go to the gym which is available 24/7 except 2 hour's which are reserved for girls and girls only, No boys are allowed to enter the sport's complex during that time. IN library only the main area where you issues the books and all are closed after specific time(I don't know exactly when).
