Four students are told to live in one room. Each room has four lockers and two bunk beds and two ceiling fans. Pwd students will be given separate rooms in which they will have two beds(not bunk), two ceiling fans and an attached bathroom. Cost of hostel per year is 90000 which is affordable. Mess food is eatable.
There are many clubs in the college. One can join the club he likes by passing the interview round conducted by the club. College also provides a basketball and badminton court and also a ground to play cricket and football. Classrooms have smart TV which can be connected to laptop using hdmi cable. Clubs conduct various events which are both technical and cultural. There is no fixed date for annual fest. Library has limited books so students have to use alternative like pdf from online.

Read Full Reviewin IIIT Dharwad annual fest is IIIT HABBA which was held in recent times there is no technical fest and all classrooms are very big and good. in my college there is a library that is a good side of college there are also some clubs like cricket basketball singing club technical club and dancing clubs and many more clubs are there.
Read Full ReviewOur annual fest is named Habba. Comparing it with other universities and colleges will make you cry or even guilty about joining this college. The library is not that big. The library is just a small space where collective books are placed with no seating arrangement. When it comes to clubs, most of them are not active at all. They are not fun either to me.
Read Full ReviewIn the hostel we are provided a room in which a total of four students will be there including me . They provide a plank,one study table,one chair and a cupboard for each student.First of all food in the mess is not at all good.menu is totally different.quality is not that much good.cleanliness in the hostel is upto the mark but many activities could be done to improve cleanliness
There are no festivals conducted in this college. but some clubs are there where they conduct some events clubs like Return 0, GDSC, BLOCKSOC, CLOUD COMPUTING, E CELL and many more. Recently the annual fest (IIIT HABBA)was conducted in the college. There is only one library and many of the books are not available in the library . As there is only one ground on our campus we cannot play outdoor games like cricket, or football. Sports activities are not that effective since there is no proper equipment like no proper outdoor and indoor stadiums
Read Full ReviewHostel is compulsory in college. But the capacity is less so you have to leave college in the fourth year. Hostel mess is also compulsory and it is decent. Hygiene is maintained in mess but the taste is not that good but it is edible.
There is one cultural fest called IIIT Habba which is conducted once in a year. There are many tech events conducted by various clubs. You can find all textbooks and reference books in the Library but there are very few books which are not related to academics. Annual sports day is conducted in this college and also there is inter IIIT event for sports. You can prepare or practice sports in college. There are 3 badminton courts, 1 basketball court, 1 volleyball court, 1 football ground which is not developed yet, Cricket nets and carrom, chess, TT, etc. There are many technical and non-tech clubs in college. eg. coding club, gdsc, photography club, drama, music, development, quiz, reading, etc.

Every classroom contains a T.V. for study purposes and 75 students can attend a lecture in a classroom. There is a sports committee in our college, we are provided with every playable instrument and can play every game (indoor and outdoor).

Indian Institute of Information Technology - [IIITD]: 12 answered questions
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.
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 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.
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:

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.
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.
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.

- 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.
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

- 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.

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!
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.
In 2020, around 30 recruiters visited IIIT Vadodara and 102 placement offers were made to the students. The highest package offered was INR 43.5 LPA, the average salary was INR 13 LPA. The top recruiters were ICICI Bank, Mathworks, and Amazon. 16 IT students got placed from IIIT Vadodara got placed in the placements of 2020.
The highest package offered to the students of IIIT Dharwad in 2020 was INR 11 LPA and the average package was INR 7 LPA. The top recruiters are Amazon, Adobe, Samsung, Cognizant, etc.
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.
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.
- IET DAVV is a reputed college. Their curriculum is updated meeting industry trends and standards.
- 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 is a new institute, with no batch placed yet but there are pre-placement records.
- 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.
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.
