What books are used in IIIT, Bhopal for a 1st year student in the IT branch?

As a first-year student, you will have the same syllabus and books as your batch mates in the CSE and ECE programs. My brother's friend studied from IET DAVV and his syllabus was the same too. You will not have to study any specialization as of now, except maybe the basic programming in C Java or C++. It depends on what you choose because my cousin chose C++ and didn't regret his decision at all. If you feel as if you need books outside the syllabus to understand the topics cohesively, then you can consult the following books for the respective topics: A.S. Vasudeva or Gaur and Gupta for Physics Boylestad for basic Electronics B.S. Grewal for Engineering Maths B.L. Theraja for Electrical Engineering N.D. Bhatt for Engineering, Drawing, and Graphics The Complete Reference by Herbert Schild for Java These are good books on the topics, used by most freshers. However, you are requested to consult Google Books, and YouTube for easy comprehension of the subjects. To develop yourself from the first year itself, you can start taking up specialized subjects or projects as part of your niche enhancement process.

Which one is good, CSE from IIIT Kottayam or IT from IIIT Bhopal? I am from Delhi and also knowing that IIIT Kottayam will have permanent campus.

A side by side comparison of both the colleges might help you get a clear view on what to expect once you get there: Curriculum: The curriculum mentor of IIIT Kottayam is IIIT Hyderabad which is one of the top-notch institutes for CSE in India. On the other hand, the curriculum mentor of IIIT Bhopal is MANIT Bhopal which doesn’t match the level of IIIT Hyderabad. Closing rank: In 2019, the closing rank for IIIT Bhopal IT was around 41K in the special round. While for IIIT Kottayam CSE, the closing rank was almost 40K at the end of special round-II. You can check the opening and closing ranks for both the colleges in the year 2019 below: Institutes Round 1 Round 2 IIIT Kottayam 19863-37501 37712-39850 IIIT Bhopal 19220-37277 37825-40622 Placements: In 2019, the first placement was held where good companies came forward for recruitment. Some of them wereNISSAN, L&T, Reliance (JIO), etc. NISSAN offered packages starting from 6 Lakh to 10 Lakh. Coding culture: Coding culture at IIIT Kottayam is at par with old IIIT’s like IIIT Allahabad, Gwalior, and good NITs. More than 70% of students clearing the starting round of CODE JAM conducted by Google Campus: While IIIT Bhopal campus construction is yet to be started IIIT Kottayam campus is almost ready.

Fees and Financial Aid:

Yes the fees will be slightly more I think than this year and there is no such reservation in fees . There are few scholarship options if you fall in that criteria like income or category or you can even apply for reliance and other scholarship

There is no such category based reservation in Fees. It is same for General,SC-ST and OBC. You can avail Central NSP Scholarship or Scholarship of your particular state if you want to but college does not provide any scholarship from there side on basis of your academic performance in college.

I have just joined IIIT Bhopal. Let me first tell you about fee structure fees throughout the course is around 10 lac for our batch (2024-28) average of 2.5 lac per year. However the fees for previous batch wo around 8 lac so I think the fees is increasing per year by 50k. The faculties are okish. You can check the scholarship details on the official website itself. Though there are a lot of scholarships. Placements are good.

Academic coursework is limited but this may be bad for us in future.

Fees per year is 225000 per year out of which 180000 is Tution Fees. Hostel charges are different. If the student belongs to SC/ST category then tution fee is not applicable for all the 4 years. Scholarships are available to students based on the states they belong for eg Uttarpradesh, Madhya Prades, Rajasthan states offer scholarships to almost all students. Apart from this scholarshipsare there for students according to govt schemes. Talking about campus employment, there are positions at various clubs of the college, but these do not offer any money. Other than this colleges select students to be the Teachers Assistant based on CGPA, but these roles also do not pay any money. However, as compared to all the IIITs, IIIT Bhopal has the lowest fees for any course.

The Real Review (IIIT BHOPAL)

According to me, I think fess of the college is very high. Most of the students study here after taking a Loan the total fee per year is approx 209200 which is too much. As compared to what they provide and also, there are scholarship opportunities for MP students and in other states, there are fewer scholarships. on campus internship are given. no financial assistance.

Hostel and mess facilities are not good and the hostel fees are too much

Our college doesn't provide scholarship from themselves. But students can avail any different private and government scholarship. Fees structure is about 2 lakh per annum and btech course can be completed in 8-10 lakh overall. Hostel and mess fees are after that
