As this is a new IIT, the infrastructure is new, and the equipment is well-advanced.

Infrastructure: Our campus is operating on 35 acres right now, and it is expanding slowly. We have a very small library here, which is just adequate. The campus is fully equipped with WiFi. The hostels are not very impressive but are good enough. The mess food is the worst. We have sports facilities for badminton, athletics, football, volleyball, basketball, table tennis, a pool table, gym, etc. We have a medical unit also.

Getting an IIT itself is a big thing.

Infrastructure: Talking about the infrastructure, it is one of the best due to the new emerging IIT. Hostels are the best I have ever seen in my life with so many facilities, night canteens, and a good mess. Medical facilities are also good. A proper gaming area building is there, along with a huge ground for football.

An emerging 3rd-generation IIT with a good future.

Infrastructure: Hostel provides good basic facilities with very few issues. Lecture halls are well-equipped with modern technologies. Vending machines for snacks are available at various locations. However, the lack of sports grounds is a concern, as there is no cricket ground at present. A new sports complex is currently under construction.

Comprehensive, supportive, and growth-oriented college experience.

Infrastructure: There is no shortage of water here. However, there are no rooms with air conditioning, though classrooms do have these facilities. I am a vegetarian, and the food in the mess is average in quality. The registration process is simple and smooth. The library is open 24 hours, while the gym closes at 11:30 PM and the cafeterias stay open until 3 AM. On campus, you must return by 11 PM. There are some hangout places outside, including fast food spots and many restaurants. Yes, it is completely safe.

Good college in tier 3 IITs.

Infrastructure: The facilities are quite good. They provide full-time Wi-Fi. Labs have so much equipment. Classrooms are neat. Even the library has a vast collection of books. The quality of food is below average as you cannot expect anything much better because it is located in Jammu and I am a south Indian who likes to eat more spicy, they cook food which is sweet. Medical facilities are also good. They also conduct good events based on sports and games.

One of the above average colleges in IIT Jammu.

Infrastructure: Everything is fine but room cleaning is not so frequent. The mess doesn't provide non-veg because of some budget issues. But the food is okay and hygienic. The taste is not good but the quality is good. The 1st and 2nd year students have 2 shared rooms and 3rd and 4th year male students have 1 shared room with inbuilt air-conditioning.
