Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology - [KIIT], Bhubaneswar - Reviews

Here is a review of KIIT University based on the experience of a close friend who is now an alumnus of the institute

Pros

• The institute offers a vibrant and happening campus life filled with fun activities.
• The institute gives extra attention to extracurricular activities and has a plethora of platforms through which one can pursue their passion.
• The accommodation facilities are decent and the hostel rooms are spacious. Hygiene is maintained 
• The institute has excellent infrastructural facilities like a gym and swimming pool that charge money.

Cons

• KIIT fees are high and not everyone can afford it. This year the annual fees stood at ?3.5 Lakhs 
• The faculty pool has average professors and very few are highly experienced.
• The institute also faces issues due to the huge batch size.
• The research culture and the lab sessions are poor and need to be worked on.
• The curfew for girls' hostels is another big concern here. The girls are expected to be inside the hostel by 7 30.
• Placements are decent considering the huge fees you have paid. There are several mass recruiters so getting placed won’t be a major problem.

In all, KIIT is a good choice if you have no financial constraints and want to live a luxurious campus life.
