Why should you choose IIITA for your M.Tech and why should you not!
Placements: In the batch of 2021-23, 95% students get the offer from companies in in campus drive. Some students opted for higher studies. The highest package offered was approximately 34 LPA and the average package offered to M.Tech was almost 20 LPA. The lowest package was about 7-8 LPA. Most of them was offered the role of SDE or Data analyst.
Infrastructure: The campus and hostel both are Wi-Fi equipped. The campus is green and beautiful. You can hear the noise of birds also which is rare nowadays. In hostel, you get single and double room. Single room is allotted for second year M.Teach mostly, but first year can also get this, depends on availability. The mess is also good. You get three meals a days and above all, quality meal. You get RO everywhere in hostel. One of the hostels which has six floors, you get lift also.
Faculty: After spending my time here, I can easily say the course and curriculum is one of the best and most recent, which not only makes you industry ready but also you got to study best curriculum from one of the best faculty team who are genuinely genius in there field. Professor wants you to involve in research instead of seeking job only which is one of the best thing here.

Best infrastructure, faculty, and facilities.
Placements: The placements are excellent in this college. Almost everyone is placed in a well-known company. The highest package is 30+ CTC and the average is 10+ CTC in M.Tech IT. Top recruiting companies are CISCO, ORACLE, MEESHO, AMAZON, etc. Internships are not allowed for M.Tech students because the college expects thesis work from them. Mainly SDE roles are offered for M.Tech students but some companies offer higher posts to M.Tech students.
Infrastructure: I have spent two months in the college hostel because of corona. The facilities like a night canteen, Wi-Fi, etc are available. I have not visited any classrooms because of corona but the library is available to us and it is well maintained and almost every subject book is available. The quality of facilities is 4 out of 5, the quality of food is also 3.5/5 and also the medical facility is available 24/7, and sports grounds are open to all 24/7.
Faculty: The faculty is helpful and available for students if in need. The faculty is qualified and knowledgeable. The course curriculum is well structured and consisted of practicals and assignments, students can learn a lot from those assignments and practicals. It also helps make students industry ready. Semester exams are difficult because they expect more from the students. Mostly application-based questions are asked. The semester is divided into three parts C1, C3, and C3. Everyone has to pass every part to pass in that semester. For every C, 40% passing marks are required.
Other: I am interested in pursuing M.Tech so I decided to go with IIITA. The best thing about the course is that it is well structured and consists of practicals which helps a lot. The events and fests are held every year as extracurricular activities as well. College have less connectivity with the city. Due to COVID, no events took place.

Review of IIIT Allahabad - Indian Institute of Information Technology (IIITA).
Placements: More than 90% of students from M.Tech 2018 batch got placed. The highest salary package offered is 34 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered is 8 LPA. top recruiting companies like Amazon, Cisco, Qualcomm, Adobe, Flipkart, Tesco, SAP Labs, and Daily Hunt visited the campus. The top role offered is a software developer. The average salary package offered is 10 LPA. For 2018 batch internship was not provided, but the good news is for upcoming batches internship is provided in the first year.
Infrastructure: For the Wi-Fi facility, I would rate 7 out of 10, and they provide a limit of 2 Mbps approximately. For labs, I would rate 9 out of10 because labs are open 24x7. For classrooms, I would rate 9.5 out of 10. Classrooms are fully air-conditioned with all digital equipment. For the library, I would rate 6 out of 10 because it is a small but good library. In hostel night mess canteen is open from 5 pm - 5 am approximate, and I would rate 8.5 out of 10 for the canteen. For mess infrastructure, I would rate 9 out of 10, and TV is also there to watch matches and movies while eating. For mess food, I would rate 5 out of 10, and it is as usual pathetic but eatable. For morning breakfast I would rate 8 out of 10. For medical facilities, I would rate 6.5 out of 10, and it is okay kind of thing. Sometimes students have to take medicine from outside. For sports, I would rate 6 out of 10, because all the equipment is there, but the trainer is not provided.
Faculty: For teachers knowledge level, I would rate 8 out of 10. They have very good knowledge but don't know how to deliver it. For teaching quality, I would rate 5 out of 10. Most of the professor just move slides of PPT. Classes are not much interactive. The course curriculum is very good. Students don' t need to learn much theory. It is more practical oriented. The course curriculum makes the students industry-ready as it has a good coding culture.
Other: I have chosen this course because I want good placements. The best thing about the course is you learn how to code. More practical oriented subjects should be there. Events named Effervescence, Approksha and sports event named Asmita are organised by the college.
