International Institute of Information Technology Hyderabad Answered Questions

Hi Kasturi,
Congratulations on such great result, both the colleges are great and it's a hard choice in general, But I'll point some of the difference I know. IIIT Hyderabad, as you know is an International School so, it has an amazing ranking across the world, and it's only Private College in India to make to top 200 of QS ranking at a time. It's has Higher Fee structure than, NIT but With a 100% assurance you'll make more than your fees in a year after graduating from there, so don't consider that point. The faculty and Infrastructure in IIIT H is way better than NIT in Research and Academics. All prof. there have Ph.D. even the newest once and all of them have Ph.D. from top schools in world. But it's not a government. College. But Honestly, IIIT Bangalore Might not sound the option in front of these two but, If you want to go for EC, It's the best college next only To IIT BOMBAY/ DELHI / Kanpur/ Madras and IISc. If you want to enjoy the studies without any bounds, IIIT H/B is the option, and for EC I'll suggest IIIT B, plus it's in Bangalore so you have that as a plus point too. Placement, IIIT B and IIIT H have much better companies and Salaries then NIT Trichy.

The chances are high if you belong to Odisha state. If you are from All India, then from this year, it is tougher. It's hard to predict because the institute is added to JoSAA for the first time this year, which means there are high chances of high cutoff in All India quota. But the process is same for Odisha domiciled category. So it depends on the quota.
Hope for the best and apply for it.
Thank you

Look, it totally depends on you. It depends on your field of interest and what you want to do. I personally feel there are two ways of choosing a college.
1. If you have decided your field and branch of study and you are determined in that than go for the branch irrespective of NIT, IIT or IIIT.
2. If you are unsure of the branch, then I would recommend, first research the course guidelines of the above-stated branches and outcomes of the same and then see which matches your interest best because 4 years is not a short period. Based on your decision, you have to study the particular branch for a long period. If you can see yourself studying that, then do apply. You have to be very careful while deciding this. Now, let's come to the studies, environment and other factors and most important to me. As I have seen, observed and talked to the peers in the IIT NIT and other colleges as well. Teaching is more or less same everywhere. In college, you have to study yourself and it is totally up to you, whether you limit yourself to college level studies or you study more advanced topic yourself, which you can do in every college. So, what all factors are left? Overall development: If you choose any old IIT, you will get tremendous opportunities to showcase yourself. IITs are the best in extracurricular. You name it and they have a club for each and every field be it related to technology, dance, debating, designing, journalism etc. The best platform to develop your personality, to try everything, to be around a good environment, to build good connections and networks is IIT. What I feel personally is, it is the best platform to discover yourself, to discover your interests and what not irrespective of branch. IIIT: They are the best in the field of IT, better than most of the IIT. And the graduation outcomes are awesome. But the extracurricular and the exposure cannot be compared to IIT. But then again, it totally depends upon you. Personally, if I would not have decided the branch then my preference level would be.
1. IIT
2. IIIT
3. NIT
4. DTU

IIIT Hyderabad is always a better option than any other non-IIT institutions in India because of the following reasons:
1. It has a broad industry connection and high graduation outcomes.
2. It is better than many IITs in terms of Computer Science and related fields.
3. It is highly research-oriented institute.

IIIT-H is always preferable because it is leader in the field of computer science and related field of education. It has a broad industry base and much better graduation outcomes than any other institution. So it is always preferable than any other college. IIIT-BBSR is also a very good college. It has a very good coding culture and gradually developing to compete with the top institutes. It gives quality education in the state of Odisha in the IT field.
Thank you.
Hope this helps.

Hope this helps. All the best.

Thanks for the question.
You can apply for most of the private colleges but you won't be able to apply for government colleges. The private colleges give the direct admission under management quota which usually has a higher fee than normal admission.
Some of those colleges are:
- VIT
- SRM
- Sathyabama
- Amity University
- Manipal University
- All regional private colleges of Bangalore i.e., BMS, Ramaiya, etc
- PSG-tech
- Hindustan University
Management quota fees are around 1.8 - 2.5m
There are also state private colleges if you prefer to study in your state. Like in Chhattisgarh there are BIT, Shankracharya, Rungta, Columbia, Kruti, etc. Likewise, there will be colleges in your state which give admission under management quota.
Thank you.

Dual degree programs are a combination of B.Tech and MS by research. The concept of MS in India is inspired by foreign institute, as outside India only MS is offered as a PG programme. The chances of getting a Ph.D. will be higher for MS students compare to M.Tech student for the below reasons
MS is a research oriented course so after doing MS you will have a clear vision about research and your interest area. Most people have 2-3 good publication during MS, which make their chances of getting good Ph.D. much-2 higher. Outside India M.Tech does't exist only MS is popular, so they will prefer a familiar degree rather than a unfamiliar one while taking admission. I am not very sure about approval from AICTE and government. Jobs, but I think MS peoples are eligible at most of these jobs as they have a PG degree from a reputed college.
