Most number of startups along with placements.

Placements: On our campus, nearly 81% of students got placed in 2024. Amazon, IBM, Bosch, TCS, Infosys, and Nissan are the top recruiters of IIITK. The highest package is 45 LPA and the average package is 12.7 LPA. The medium package is 10.5 LPA. 83% of students secured placements. A number of startups visited is 22 and the number of companies visited is 86.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi connections are pretty mediocre, they always disconnect in the middle. Labs are okay and classrooms are good. There is only a single library available on the whole campus which is decent enough with enough books. Hostel rooms are just okay to survive and the quality of food is below average in mess. The quality of food in canteen is decent and medical facilities are sufficient enough. Sports and games facilities are not that good but okay to play games like badminton and kabbadi.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful. They help us like friends in case of subject doubts. Many of them have graduated from top NITs and IITs, not only this they all have lots of experience. Our course curriculum helps us a lot. Because compared to many IITs and some NITs I can definitely say that our curriculum is better than those. The reason behind this is our campus follows a curriculum that is similar to that of IIIT Hyderabad which is considered one of the best curriculum. Semester exams on our campus are comparatively tough.

Other: We have 2 big fests conducted on our campus and some small fests for well-recognized festivals. The 2 fests are Adharv and Apoorv, these are consecutively conducted for even and odd sets. If our campus provides more space for playing games and extends its construction then we can play a lot all at a time.

Absolutely dissatisfied with the college because my college life became so bad in this college.

Placements: Only 50% of students are getting placed and the students in the placement cell are only getting opportunities and giving them to their friends. The highest package is 32 LPA. The lowest package is 3.6 LPA. The average package is around 6 LPA. Top recruiters are Nalasha, TCS, etc. Less than 25% of people got internships; among them, 50% are off campus.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is provided in labs and classrooms. And the infrastructure is good for labs and classrooms but the AC is not there in labs and classrooms. The food quality in the mess is good and the hostel facilities are good. Sports and games facilities are like a normal school, not up to my expectations.

Faculty: Teachers only provide the slides in the classroom. The curriculum is great for CSE students. Exam patterns are not good and the grading is so complicated that you will not understand it even in the full 4 years of your college. Passing percentage is 30 percent .

Other: I chose this course because I wanted to do computer science and engineering, as my JEE Main rank is around 29k so I got this college. Events and fests should be organized in a better way and colleges should provide more budget. The connectivity of college is so poor. Surrounding is so poor as it is a village that doesn't have more than 5 shops at all.

Overview of Indian Institute of Information Technology Kottayam .

Placements: The placements are decent here as of now. The median is around 10 to 12 LPA, and the average is near to 12 LPA. Location and recession are the main reasons for the limited number of companies. You can check out the placement statistics on the college website.

Infrastructure: The hostels are very good infrastructure-wise, but the freshers should stay outside campus hostels for their first year due to the limited number of hostels inside campus. Labs are well developed. Classrooms are good, and Wi-Fi is above average. Mess is above decent.

Faculty: The curriculum is good, which follows IIITH's curriculum. The faculty is friendly, and the examinations are reduced, which makes it stress-free for students. Being a IIIT, it solely depends on industry preparing subjects like CS communications and personality development.

Other: The college is good enough with a mix of everything.

Satisfied with Infrastructure of IIIT Kottayam.

Placements: Campus placements are relatively low, with an average package of around 6 LPA for Computer Science and Engineering. The highest package reached 20 LPA. Many students secure internships independently, with top roles offered in fields like machine learning. Approximately 30% of students get placed.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is unreliable, often switching off, but classrooms and department facilities are satisfactory. Sports and games are encouraged, although the quality of the mess is inconsistent—sometimes subpar, though it has improved recently. Medical facilities are adequate.

Faculty: Some teachers are very supportive, while others display a degree of partiality. Overall, teaching quality is good, though semester exams are challenging, with a low pass rate of around 5.5. Mid-semester exams, however, are manageable.

Other: Events are well-organized, but they rarely invite notable guests or experts from outside the institution.

Decent placements and developing infrastructure and facilities, but fees are slightly overpriced.

Placements: Considering the recession period, IIIT Kottayam has performed decently in the 2023–24 placement season. The highest CTC was observed to be 45 LPA, while the average is mentioned to be around 12 LPA (on and off campus combined) and the lowest around 4 LPA. However, the overall placement percentage has slightly declined when compared to the great placement season of 2022–23. Top recruiting companies like NVIDIA, HP, IBM, Media.NET, etc. have visited this year. Internship offers from various companies become grabbable starting from the 2nd year of college itself if the profile is decent and the projects have a good teaching style.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are good with Wi-Fi support, digital boards, etc. Labs have most of the necessary equipments required in adequate amount (Computer labs even have proper Ethernet connections). Hostel facilities are fine and adjustable, except for the insects (since the campus is located in a lush green place). Mess is unified, not hostel-wise. The quality of mess food recently varied because of increase in the number of students and lack of kitchen space. However, the two canteens (Milma Shop and Scoops) are easily accessible. We get quite a number of events and tournaments in sports and games but they have their own limitations.

Faculty: Teaching quality is good. Teachers are mostly helpful, humble, qualified and knowledgeable about a variety of research domains. There's a lot to learn from some of them. The course curriculum is really great considering that it has some similarities to that of IIIT Hyderabad. Students can get industry ready but they need to push themselves more than anything. Semester exams have moderately difficult levels (depending on the faculty who sets the paper) with a very high pass percentage.

Continuously upgrading and developing skills relevant to the desired field enhances employability.

Placements: In cybersecurity, there is no passed-out batch. So, I can't provide information about placements in my course. This year, my seniors are the first batch. According to core placements, it is good now. Seeking internships during the course of study or during breaks provides valuable work experience, practical skills, and industry exposure. Internships are lead to full-time job offers upon graduation. Building a professional network through industry events, alumni connections, and online platforms. LinkedIn helps students discover job opportunities and access hidden job markets.

Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure are good. We have separate classrooms and labs. There is no problem with Wi-Fi. The library is very small, but we get the resources we need. Classrooms with AC are provided. Food facilities are adequate. Sports facilities are good, and we have separate grounds for all sports.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful with our projects, and assistants like Ph.D. scholars help us with lab activities. The curriculum is good. It helps students get internships. The question papers in midterm and semester exams are of moderate to high difficulty. The passing criteria require a 5 CGPA.

Other: I am very interested in hacking, so I chose this course because of my interest in hacking. Hacking is very fun. I expect to learn more this year. My teachers are very helpful with projects. Increasing interaction with students is necessary. Fests and cultural activities are very fun. They occur once or twice a semester. All extracurricular activities are encouraged.
