How is IIIT Dharwad?

Aniket Bose

20 Mar 21

According to most reviews, students who are interested in getting into an institute with the IIIT tag can join IIIT Dharwad. There are several positives and negatives about the institute, and a brief overview of them is listed below.

The teachers in IIIT Dharwad mostly have average dedication towards the course they are teaching. There are rumors about teachers discriminating among students, and skipping important topics. Students with biology in school really find it difficult to learn coding with this kind of teaching.
The laboratories in the institute are yet of average infrastructure. Lab assistants and teachers are not supportive. If you speak Kannada, your life at the campus will be easier. Only the professional communication lab is worth attending.
There is a strict system of 85% attendance.
The atmosphere inside the campus is not very positive for studying. There is no permanent campus. Classes are held in an IT park, 3.5 km away from hostels and PGs.
Every aspect, from internships to placements, needs to be taken care of by you.
The engineering life is not worth studying in this institute. No proper fests are organized, and only two clubs are properly established, technical and e-cell. There is a technical fest organized entirely by students but did not receive appreciation from the teachers.
Students get stressed both mentally and physically, studying in IIIT Dharwad. Even the brand name does no good for the advancement of students.

If you are passionate about engineering, it will be better not to choose this institute.

Should I join new IIITs like IIIT-Trichy, IIIT-Dharwad (Bangalore) and IIIT-Lucknow although they don't have a permanent campus and a college by MHRD?

Santanu Saha

There are some factors that you should consider before choosing a newer institute like IIIT-Trichy, IIIT-Dharwad, or IIIT Lucknow, and some of them are discussed below.

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

Particulars	IIIT Trichy	IIIT Dharwad	IIIT Lucknow
Total Fees (B.Tech)	Rs. 7.3 Lakhs	Rs. 9.5 Lakhs	Rs. 9.8 Lakhs
Highest Salary Offered	Rs. 32 LPA	Rs. 11 LPA	Rs. 43 LPA
Cut-off for CSE(JEE Main)	21750	32991	14268
Cut-off for CSE(JEE Advanced)	27686	41097	10848

The IIITs provide an excellent structured course, which has a unique syllabus and follows the recent technologies and requirements. They are somewhat ahead in advanced concepts, compared to other basic degree courses.
The choice of an institute depends on your interest. So, review the course structure carefully before choosing the institute.

So, before choosing the institute, do thorough research regarding the course overview, opportunities, faculties, etc, before getting into the institute.

I got IIIT Dharwad CSE. Is it good to join there or shall I proceed to round two? What is the mentor institute for IIIT Dharwad?

Ankit Doshi

IIIT Dharwad is a newly established institute and it will be better not to make high expectations from this institute yet. It is running as a temporary campus at IT Park. Still, things have got little changes as it has permanent faculty, sports ground, labs infrastructure, as it got the mentor-like IIIT Bangalore.

You must go for round 2 without any doubt. Because this institute is running in a provisional campus in a free building and the college administration does not have a single penny to pay rent or take a permanent campus. Everything is going on charity in this institute.

Infrastructures, lab facilities, hostels, mess, administration, and most importantly, the placement is lagging; in short, all these are very poor.

The following table gives a brief overview of IIIT Dharwad, considering its placement process:

Criteria	IIIT Dharwad
Highest CTC	11 LPA
Lowest CTC	5 LPA
Average CTC	6.5 LPA

Students get extremely worst treatment here, specifically in the hostels, as it has no facilities and the mess is completely pathetic.

Thus, it is requested not to join this institute, as the college environment is impoverished than any other private institute. College administration is totally frustrated and not even able to run the central Government institute.

It is better to select some other private college rather than this IIIT. However, attendance here is very reluctant, which is 85%, but college administration considers the below percentage if the student gives them any excuses.

Should I choose IIIT Kottayam, Dharwad, Kurnool or Trichy?

Sumit Chowdhury

You should prefer IIIT Kottayam. It has a similar curriculum as IIIT Hyderabad. IIIT Kottayam placements 2022 concluded with the highest CTC of INR 42 LPA. In the last three years, the average CTC of the institute has increased from INR 4 LPA to INR 9.68 LPA. reputed companies such as IBM, L&T, Reliance(JIO), NISSAN, etc. took part in the placement drive.

IIIT Kottayam has a thriving coding culture, almost at par with old IIITs such as IIITA, IIITG, etc. Students of the institute have been performing well in competitive coding forums.

Which is better, IIIT Dharwad or IIIT Naya Raipur?

One of my friends studied at IIIT Naya Raipur, so in the following, some points are highlighted considering this institute.

Growth: Their laboratory infrastructure is well-furnished and provides all the basic facilities to the students, including high-speed internet. The campus is very peaceful and safe. All research projects, workshops, E-cells events and seminars are continuously conducted here. These help this institute to grow quite rapidly.
Placement: My friend once told me that one of his seniors had secured AIR 11 in GATE; however, he is now pursuing M.Tech studies at Cornell. The achievements of the student’s project have a growing prospect for this institute. As it is guided by IIIT Hyderabad, the median salary is higher than the other institutes of India.

Criteria	IIIT Naya Raipur	IIIT Dharwad
Highest CTC	43 LPA	15 LPA
Lowest CTC	6.5 LPA	3 LPA
Average CTC	11.5 LPA	8-10 LPA
Placement statistics	100%	60%

Atmosphere:There is a quota for the students who come from Chhattisgarh; besides, there is also an NTPC quota. Telugu state students bond with the Telugu squad. Thus, there is a huge diversity in the student’s background.
Faculty: Director of this institute has a Doctoral Degree (PhD) from Tokyo University. One of the professors, Mr Ramakrishna Bandi, achieved a PhD from IIT Roorkee and followed Post-Doc from IIT Bombay.
Food: Mess foods here are homelier than the other institutes. It is less oily. However, the good thing is that the mess committee takes the student’s opinion and tries to make food as per their preferences. Thereby, a student can try to be the mess committee member, but it is not compulsory at all; they can be on the side with someone who is already the member.
Hostel: Hostels here are cleared every day. Students will get a room with a bed, a cupboard, mattress, a desk, a chair, along with all the necessary stuff. Students have to pay meagre maintenance fees for their hostel accommodation. The hostel staff are amicable and provide low-rate laundry services to the students, but the students can also pay to use the washing machines at the shopping complex.

So, it is suggested that you go for IIIT Naya Raipur, because it will provide you with all the necessities required for a student in their daily life.

ECE in VIT or ECE in IIIT Dharwad, which is better?

Madhumanti Halder

CSE in IIIT Dharwad is a better option to opt for. As of now, they don't have a permanent campus but they will have their campus soon. See, there are pros and cons of every college/institute. Somewhere you might find one thing and another might be equipped with another better thing. IIIT Dharwad also has some pros and cons.

Cons:

Don't have their permanent campus as of now and the temporary campus is also not that good.
You have to pick your peer group very wisely because the type of people you choose will become your peer group.

Pro

The institute in which you will be studying is of national importance which is controlled by MHRD. It has a good reputation just like any other IITs/NITs.
You will get the mentorship of some experienced faculties as PhD is mandatory for all the faculties here.
Dharwad is quite close to Bangalore so you can get good placement opportunities.
The campus of IIIT Dharwad will be really amazing.
The facilities like hostel and mess are better in comparison to any other college/institutes.
If you are a sports lover, you will have many sports facilities like cricket, football, basketball etc.
And most importantly, you will have the brand name of IIIT which really matters.

Categories	IIIT Dharwad	VIT
Course Fee	9.45 lakh	7.83 lakh
Placement Percentage	70-80%	80%
Highest CTC	15-20 LPA	24 LPA
Average CTC	8 LPA	6 LPA
Recruiting Companies	Wipro, Deloitte, Intel, TCS, etc.	Accenture, Capgemini, Infosys, IBM, etc.

Talking about VIT, if you have a huge amount of money in your pocket, then you can opt for it. Although, they are not providing any good placements in their records.

So, now you know about both the institutes very well, so choose wisely. All the best!

Niket Bajodia

My brother chose IIIT Vadodara for his IT and he is full of admiration for the institute. The record of placements of IIIT Vadodara is good and it also offers decent packages to the students.

The coding culture of IIIT Vadodara is also very reputed and the location is also well-liked by the students. Every institute will have its pros and cons so it is entirely up to you. Do not get influenced by the reviews and try to decide on your own. Take advice as well if you want to.

How are the hostel and food facilities in IIIT Dharwad?

Arina Sengupta

One of my cousins has recently completed her 1st year in the institute and can present her views better regarding your concern.

The facilities of the hostel are better as opposed to most other IIITs. Some of the amenities that can be availed here are as follows.

One of many facilities includes having separate bathrooms for 2 students sharing a room, unlike most of the other institutes where students face problems regarding sharing one bathroom for various personal uses.
The hostels are equipped with CCTV cameras as well.
There is also a provision of Wi-Fi that generally has a high speed.
The hostels have sufficient space for playing indoor games.

Subsequently, when talking about the food facilities, IIIT Dharwad follows the menu of IIT Bombay. The food quality you can avail is on an average quite decent. For more information on the facilities, you can refer to their website.

Which is better EC at IIIT DHARWAD or CS at IET DAVV, INDORE? I live in INDORE.

Shweta Das

One of my cousins studied at IET DAVV. According to him, it will be better if you choose IET DAVV over IIIT Dharwad for engineering. Here are some reasons behind his choice -

Firstly, anyone in your situation will probably choose IET DAVV as it is situated in Indore. Your transportation and accommodation costs will minimize if you study from your hometown. This is a major advantage for you.

The college has good placement records.
The students are talented. Also, IET has a happening college life too along with a diverse crowd.
The faculty at IET DAVV are well experienced and highly qualified.

IIIT Dharwad has no good infrastructure at present. The college does not have a permanent campus.

Particulars	IET DAVV	IIIT Dharwad
Placement percent	70%	90%
Highest salary	INR 20 LPA	INR 15 LPA
Average salary	INR 4.5 LPA	INR 5 LPA

Ultimately the decision is yours but it is suggested that you go for IET DAVV rather than IIIT Dharwad.

Which one is the best, IIIT Dharwad or IIIT Raipur?

Rachita Sen

18 Jun 21

Among these two, IIIT Dharwad will be a better choice. Here are some reasons why you should choose IIIT Dharwad.

It is an institute of national importance. It is run by the Central Govt. on a public-private partnership basis. Selection for admission is merit-based on an India basis.
The location of the institute is better in terms of placements and getting internships and practical learning opportunities as compared to IIIT Raipur.
The only point of disadvantage for the institute is that it does not have a permanent campus. But that should not matter if your branch is CSE or ECE.

Here is a brief highlight of IIIT Dharwad.

Average CTC	7 LPA
Highest CTC	11 LPA

Not having a permanent campus will not be a big issue, if you are not that into extra-curricular. From an academics and placement point of view, IIIT Dharwad is definitely a better alternative.
