A good college for students of army personnel.

Placements: Placement rates are very good. Almost above 90%, but the average package is not so good. But at this percentile and rank, it is the best. The highest package is 52 LPA. The lowest is something around 4 LPA. Top companies include Microsoft. The top roles are in the core of ENTC. Around 50% of students get internships easily.

Infrastructure: The Wi-Fi speed is not good but decent. It can work for your everyday use, but it is not so fast. Labs are also on the good side. Some classrooms are old, but many are new. The library is good and has all the books that you need. The hostel facility is the best. The food is also the best. Food is always available in the canteen and mess. Medical facilities, sports, and games are also good.

Faculty: Teachers are great. They help everyone to grow and are very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The course curriculum is relevant. It makes students industry-ready. The semester exams are not so easy, not so difficult. But if you study, you can easily do them.

Placement before campus life.

Placements: The placements are usually very good. Around 98% of the students got placed this year. The highest package is around 56 LPA, which I think is given by Amazon. The top recruiting companies include Amazon, Microsoft, Mastercard, etc. Apple also comes to our campus for internships, and two students get selected for internships. One of them works at Microsoft, and the other one gets hired by Apple.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is pretty good. Wi-Fi has some issues, but labs and classrooms work fine. The issue is that the infrastructure is pretty old, which makes it feel boring, but there is a lot of greenery on the campus. The hostel facilities are pretty good. Water quality is good, and food is always available. It is of good quality. The canteen works perfectly fine. Medical facilities are decent, but sports and games have some issues because the area is limited, so not everyone can play, and a few people use it most of the time.

Faculty: The quality of knowledge provided by teachers is very good. The course curriculum is quite relevant but might feel old. They try to make students industry-ready, and it is working. The semester exams are pretty average. If students study hard for 2–3 days before exams, they can pass them easily.

Other: I chose this college and this course because Computer Engineering is the top branch here, and my JEE percentile is suitable for this. I want to pursue this branch from the start. The course is pretty good, but something I would like to improve is making it more competitive and futuristic. The crowd and connectivity are pretty good. Scholarships are very prominent and are given to female students. Extracurricular activities are good, but they are mostly placement-focused.

Army Institute of Technology is a fine college.

Placements: Around 90-95%+ are placed each year. The highest package is around 50 LPA+ each year. Most recruitment is from ZS. More than half of the 3rd years get internships. The average and median packages are apparently declining since COVID, which is reasonable due to various other factors, but overall, I would say that it has good placements.

Infrastructure: Good infrastructure and mess food according to the fees, nothing extraordinary. It is on 30 acres, but all the basic sports are provided. The gym is small, according to the number of students. Wi-Fi is absolutely the worst in hostels. You won't even be able to open YouTube or download anything if you use it in hostels, whereas it is actually good in the academic block, but it is restricted to laptops only, and you can't use it for gaming.

Faculty: Teachers are good considering the difficulty of exams and help in different things other than academics, too, as there is a counsellor for every 20 students. Since autonomy, the curriculum has been changed such that it matches 80% with IITS, so take that as you will.

Other: AIT is a fine college. If you are a good student who follows rules and regulations, you will be fine and enjoy life here, as there are many fests and events of various types. But if you are a mischievous student, then fines are imposed. If your percentile is around 90-97, then this is the best college you can get, as the fees are only 13-14L, which is worth it according to the placements, especially because it has now become autonomous and will more likely improve further.

College is decent if you don't have an option for tier 1 NITs and IT department is far better.

Placements: Most students around 85 percent are still getting placed in the current scenario. The highest package is around 53 LPA and the lowest is 3 LPA. Companies like Mastercard, UBS, ZS, and many others visit for placements. A good number of students around 40 percent got internships at companies like Mastercard, EQ, and others.

Infrastructure: The facilities are decent as per the college. The number of hostels is not sufficient with respect to the intake. There are facilities for sports, medical care, and indoor games. Labs are high-tech and if you want to work on any of your projects the college also provides funding.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, qualified, and experts in their fields. The new autonomous syllabus is designed with a strong focus on the ongoing trends in the industry. Exams are now conducted by college itself from my batch, which is helpful for students.

Other: The campus environment is very healthy with a good senior-junior bond and the clubs are the key to that interaction. They organise numerous events throughout the year.

For defence wards it is a great college after some NITs.

Placements: I would say that placement-wise, AIT is good. For freshers, there are many opportunities as Pune is a tech gain in Maharashtra. Generally, the top placement holders are girls, but boys can also secure good placements. Lastly, if you are a defence ward, you can definitely consider this college.

Infrastructure: The academic building is good, as there are approximately 2000 students. The hostel facility from the second year onwards is not enough for boys as there are 120 students in each branch, but the hostel is only for 80 to 90 students. However, the hygiene and environment of the campus are great. The food quality is not good, not bad, but better than many, and two food courts are available for paid meals.

Faculty: Teachers are good and qualified, and there are many subjects that are great for practical knowledge. From this year, the college is autonomous, which is good as there are fewer chances of exams getting postponed, and results also come fast, so students don't have to go to SPPU for any small reason.

Other: There are more than 20 clubs in AIT, including technical, cultural, and sports clubs. AIT also conducts the biggest student-driven hackathon called Innerve by the OSS club.

Better than most private colleges, excluding BITS.

Placements: The college is good in terms of placements, and overall it is a decent college. The average package is above 10 LPA. This year, companies like Apple, Zomato, and Barclays came for the placement drive. In my course, we get roles such as SDE, data analyst, and consultancy roles. Internship opportunities are also good.

Infrastructure: The facilities provided could be better, as they do not match the fees we pay. The mess food could have been better if they tried to improve it. The food is hygienic and good, but it becomes boring sometimes. They should improve the Wi-Fi, as it is very slow and does not allow access to some educational websites. Sports facilities are decent, and you can play many sports here.

Faculty: The college was affiliated with SPPU when I joined, so exam schedules were tight for us. Most faculty members are good in nature, but I cannot say much about their experience and teaching methods. Now the college is autonomous, and they have introduced a new curriculum, which I do not know much about, but it seems better than ours.
