Absolutely satisfied and happy.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi, classrooms, and library are all good and present and are really at the top. The library is state of the art, only needing some power backup. Hostel quality is good but very far from the city. The mess food is good and can’t be complained about. They also keep changing the menu regularly.

IIST - Unique or just another IIT?

Infrastructure: Since the college started in 2007, hostels have been pretty new and always clean. Since it's not a very populated college, you will always find it calm and peaceful here. In the first year, one has to share a room with 2 other batchmates, which turns into 2 people per room from the 2nd year onwards.

It is a good college in terms of education.

Infrastructure: Apart from sports facilities, all facilities are available like labs, classrooms, a library, etc. The hostel facilities are good. The quality of the food is good. The taste is not good. I don't know what the staff says. It's South Indian food. I am a South Indian but I don't like the food. Medical facilities are good. There is only one small canteen in the entire campus. It is open only from 8 AM - 11 PM. It is difficult to find a canteen facility during exam time, so we need a night canteen.

Our college is good for students who have an interest in space science.

Infrastructure: If students want to work in labs, this place is a heaven. Hostels aren't top-notch but they are better than NITs. Wi-Fi has restrictions for games and some websites like other institutes. The mess is not good. It does not provide good food like other colleges.

A hidden gem of a college (better than new IITs).

Infrastructure: Excellent course infrastructure; the library is very huge with a large collection of books; 24hr 5G Wi-Fi for students; quality of food is average, but there are various food joints nearby, so that is not a big issue. Sports facilities are also good and improving every day, as now the B.Tech students will have credit for sports too.

Review of IIST - Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology.

Infrastructure: The hostels are newly built, and they are well managed. The warden is a painter. IIST is very strict on rules. Washing machines are not available; you will have to pool your money and buy one yourself, and the cleanliness could be better. The course is good.

Absolutely satisfied with the faculty, good placements, and really good infrastructure and facilitie

Infrastructure: Faculty members come from all over India and have post-doctoral degrees in their specific fields. Many have been educated at Ivy League colleges. Classrooms are air-conditioned, and Wi-Fi is available throughout the campus. The library is excellent, fully air-conditioned with six floors, and includes educational books, scientific papers, and novels. Hostels are also good and clean, though they lack AC and have common washrooms. Food at the mess is varied—some is good, some not so much.

Satisfied with academics, sports and extracurricular activities.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi's are sometimes unstable but yes, they are efficient. You do not get Wi-Fi or any Internet in your classrooms, of course. There's a 5-story library and more than 35,000+ books there, mostly related to space and the course. There's not much in the literature section. The food is hygienic but not tasty enough but yes, you won't get sick. Sports are evolving there.

Infrastructure: Yes, the infrastructure is good, and the college is growing and modifying the infrastructure; they are making new hostels, cricket stadiums, swimming pools, etc. And it's a kind of green campus; you will find trees and grasses all around the college with the protection of CIF.
