IIIT Lucknow B.Tech Information Technology: Fees 2025, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Yes, IIIT Lucknow has a better package for CS and IT students than IIIT Allahabad and IIIT H. However, it will not give you a guarantee that you will get placed after completing your studies from IIIT Lucknow.

The following table will show you the placement record of IIIT Lucknow.

IIIT Lucknow has been established over many years, and is one of the oldest campuses of IITs. The Lucknow campus is from one of the top 5 campuses of IIT and probably the best one. It grew fast as compared to any other institutes 

The average salary offered to IIIT Lucknow students is INR 18.42 LPA, while the highest package goes to INR 43 LPA. The Median package is INR 15 LPA, and the minimum package offered is INR 10 LPA.

Seeing the current scenario, in future also, IIIT Lucknow will give good placement to its students. 

Therefore, if you are thinking of joining IIIT Lucknow then go for it. Because apart from having similar faculty to other top institutes, IIIT - L provides students to improve their technical and soft skills. And that improves the chance of their placement.

Although IIIT Lucknow is an excellent institute in terms of placement and coding culture, IIIT Guwahati is not very far from the standards of IIIT Lucknow. There are several negative reviews about IIIT Guwahati over the internet and it is being falsely treated as inferior. 

The table below gives a brief level of comparison among the two institutes.

Key Highlights:

• Guwahati has very pleasant weather throughout the year, except for the humid month of August. Lucknow has an extreme type climate and so, this pleasance is lacking there. There is no problem of severe mosquitoes in Guwahati, but spiders and lights insects are often found.
• It is true that IIIT Lucknow has excellent coding culture inside its campus, with participation in several competitions. But, there are false facts about IIIT Guwahati that it has no such culture, and these are purely misleading. 
• There are some excellent professors in IIIT Guwahati. Going into some personal preferences by students, lecturers from some professors namely Soumi ma’am (CSE), Sumit sir (CSE), Mansoor sir (ECE), Arjun sir (Maths), etc are quite interesting. 
• The attendance rule of 75-85% is not very strict to be followed in IIIT Guwahati.
• Classrooms and laboratories in the academic building are well equipped with all necessary facilities and equipment and are air-conditioned too. Mostly, students are given single occupancy rooms, with attached toilets, which may be delayed due to the construction of a new hostel. 
• Mess quality is a place of personal opinion and depends upon the type of food one likes. IIIT Guwahati serves both veg and non-veg food, in North and South-Indian cuisines. There is a little issue with the hygiene of the mess in IIIT Guwahati, which is usually the case in all hostels. 
• Placements alone can never be the means of judgment for a batch of students, considering the fact that past records don’t matter that much in the future.

Therefore, both the institutes are good, with the presence of all necessary facilities and offerings. Reviewing an institute should not be manipulative and misleading.
