A GLIMPSE OF IIIT KOTTAYAM

Overall Rating
Indian Institute of Information Technology Kottayam is too good in terms of academics. Life inside the campus is also good. It's worthy to join here by paying high amount of fee if one gets admission through JOSAA or CSAB.
 

Academics Rating
In terms of academics, IIIT Kottayam is highly under rated. In the first semester we don't have non-core subjects like physics and chemistry like other colleges, instead we have web development in which we are taught HTML, CSS and JS. In first semester they teach us c++ as programming language simultaneously along with web development. In second semester we have backend language - JAVA along with data structures in c++. By the end of second year, student will be a full stack developer (DBMS, computer networks also). From second year second semester we will have deep subjects like AI, ML etc.
 

Faculty Rating
Our college is famous for having high number of faculty. Faculty student ratio here is too good; it is about 1:30. All the faculty are PhD holders from prominent universities such as top NIT's and IIT's. Apart from faculty we also have the support of PhD scholars from our college to help us academic related things. They come to our classes along with the main faculty.
 

Placement Rating
We have a well dedicated team for placements. Highest package for 2023 passed out batch is Rs. 58 LPA and average package stands out at Rs. 13.90 LPA. From 2019 since ever the first batch is placed, growth in placements is extra ordinary.
 

Hostel Rating
Our college provides hostel facility for both boys and girls. We have three boys’ hostels and one girl’s hostel inside the campus. Additionally to this college has two other hostels in the nearby town. We have completely student driven mess, in which everything is decided by the students, both north Indian and south Indian foods are available every day. We will have fixed two types of bread with butter and jam along with 2-3 types of tiffin items along with chutneys. Every day for lunch and dinner we have normal rice, Kerala rice, roti/chapati, curd along 3-4 types of curries.
 

Infrastructure Rating
As our college is newly established, we don't have outstanding infrastructure, but comparing to other IIIT's or newly established universities, our growth is enormous. We have two academic blocks with multiple conference halls, computer labs and electrical labs. Our college has a canteen, medical shop, and an ATM inside campus.
 

Campus Rating
Coming to campus life it is not too good as we don't have a very big campus. Sports facilities are very limited, college don't have a sufficient ground. Weird thing is that both cricket and football are played in the same ground. Annually we have 4 fests. Annual fest is DHRUVA and fresher fest is called as ADAVYA. College has many technical and cultural clubs. Our college has a great coding culture maintained by coding club.

    My overall experience at the Indian Institute of Information Technology Kottayam was decent. The students here are friendly and disciplined. 60% of the students are native speakers of Telugu and Malayalam. There are various technical and cultural events organised frequently. Students get long vacations during summer and winter. However, the fees is high and only some of the faculty has high expertise.... Read Full Review

    The fact that IIIT Kottayam is in Kerala was what that excited me the most and I think that this campus is worth joining among the institute s that I’ll get with my JEE score. Indian Institute of Information Technology, Kottayam is a bit smaller than what I expected but it will expand for sure and trying to accommodate more students as first years you are given hostels outside the campus and are sent to institute via a traveler....

    This is a very good institute. We have many great opportunities to get a job. Don't believe negative reviews that you listen as we have great equipment in laboratories and great well enough graduated faculty. For 1st years, hostel may be outside the campus. Management will take care of that they will provide buses. If you can afford fee then joining IIITK is worth joining rather than private institutes. You will definitely have a great opportunity if you utilize it. You can travel Kerala in hol... Read Full Review
