(IT)/B.Tech. (ECE) program and the rest have elements of a PG program. If you go for a lateral entry into the PG (M.Tech. (IT)/ M.Tech.

You may be allowed to change your specialization after the 1st semester, considering your academic performance. Other such programs include Microelectronics, Biomedical Engineering, MBA in IT, and others. There are good internship and placement opportunities available if you choose the 5-year program.

Fees and Financial Aid:

Fees of this college is a bit on the higher end as it is comparatively newer college, I pay around 110000 rupees overall for one semester in Mtech, fee fluctuations are there but sometimes fees goes up and down but stays in 100000 range only. Total cost for mtech here is around 450000 rupees. For mtech students, we get MHRD stipend of 12400 each month. Employment rate here is very very good you will get a high paying job from this college for sure, average package for mtech is 18 lpa, and average for btech is 31 lpa no kidding. Placements are good.

IIIT Allahabad does not have a clearly stated regular policy on the rate or regularity of tuition fee increases. However, it appears there have been instances where a planned 10% increase was put on hold.

Why I chose IIITA

Tuition fees is arround 45k per sem and after all the other charges it comes at around 60k per sem plus mess charges which are around 15k per sem. Tuition fees will remain constant over the duration of your course however other charges may change a bit. There are scholarship opportunities but I don't know about them much. As compared to other govt. colleges, IIIT Allahabad is quite affordable.
