The reality of the hybrid course B.Sc in Computer Science and Data Analytics provided by IIT Patna.

Infrastructure: So basically this course is a hybrid course, so you do not have to go to any physical class, but during the campus immersion, they provide a hostel. The infrastructure of the hostel, exam halls and lecture hall is good and clean, and the food provided is also good. They also provide us with the opportunity to participate in various sports and activities during immersion.

IIT Patna - The good and bad.

Infrastructure: The academic infrastructure is great, with high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the institute, high-tech labs, and modern classrooms with facilities such that all students can SEE the screens easily. The library in IITP is huge, with all modern amenities and all sorts of books. Hostel facilities are decent, but the cleanliness of washrooms should be improved. The mess is decent, and medical and sports facilities are amazing.

Absolutely satisfied with the college. IIT Patna is a rapidly growing 2nd generation IIT..

Infrastructure: All hostels have Wi-Fi installed. Three students share one room in the 1st year boys’ hostel. The newly built library is now open and centrally located. Labs and workshops are well-equipped with all necessary equipment. CLH is amazing with big classrooms. Each department has its own building where research and practical work take place.

If you want to explore and have fun than its better to choose any old IITs.

Infrastructure: Labs are good but the instruments are old. Wi-Fi is available everywhere, including the hostel, academic building and lecture hall. The library is good and big but during exam time, it has a shortage of seats as all the students come and study overnight. There are not as many canteens and food stalls in comparison to old IITs that is a big problem and also Blinkit , Instamart, Zepto is not available only Jio smart is available but that not sufficient.
