IUST B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering: Fees 2025, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Admission to the university is determined by JEE Mains scores and 12th-grade marks, appealing to students who may not qualify for IITs or NITs. The faculty is largely well-qualified, with many from IITs, NITs, AMU, and JNU, and often hold or pursue PhDs. The academic structure includes two exams per semester, with mid-semester exams being objective and end-semester exams theoretical. Despite the faculty's expertise, some members are perceived as blunt, and the coursework is intensive.

The university offers scholarships covering about 40% of fees for middle-class families, but the overall fee structure is seen as burdensome. Tuition fees are 62,000 annually for B.Tech and M.Sc., with diplomas costing 14,000 annually. Open merit students pay 74,000, while self-financed and NRI students pay 2 lakh and 5 lakh initially. The hostel fee is around 3,000 per semester, and the bus fee is 14,500 per semester. Multiple scholarships, including Merit Cum Means and Post Matric, provide 25,000 annually, and a free interest loan is available for financially needy students.

The university does not provide its own scholarships, but national ones like PMSSS are available for BPL students. Placement opportunities are somewhat limited, with companies like TCS, Airtel, and Infosys participating. Placements are open from the 7th semester, with the highest salaries between 7 to 12 LPA and average salaries around 2 to 3 LPA. Some students secure placements at about 5 LPA, but the overall placement rate is low.

Internships are often self-sought, though companies like HCL offer some opportunities. Students frequently demand fee concessions due to inadequate facilities, and bus fees have risen often. The institution's financial aid is reportedly limited, affecting students' overall experience.
