Think before you choose, must read this review first.

Placements: Placements are good, mainly depending on our skills. More skilled students have chances of getting placed. Almost 60% of students get placed. The highest package is around 9 LPA, and minimum is 1 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Paras Health, Bharat Petroleum, etc. Top roles offered are software engineer and web developed.

Infrastructure: Our college has good infrastructure. It has nice buildings but doesn't have digital boards in every class. Our college has good natural environment. A lot of canteens are available on the campus. Food quality is good both veg and non-veg. For sports, you can play cricket, basketball but don't have much indoor sports facilities.

Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified and teach nicely. They make us understand the subject very well. Curriculum is very relevant at par with NIT. Exams are not as tough as university conducts its exams itself. Pass percentage is almost very near to 80%.

Other: I chose this course because CSE is the future, AI, and other coding languages. We get huge placements in it as well. I wish there were more recruitment companies, better labs, and digital classrooms. A lot of fests happen like business fests, fashion fests, etc.

Review of Islamic University of Science and Technology.

Placements: Placements are not that good, but I can say they are average placements. But recently saw a little spike in placements. I don't know about the highest package, but recently, many students from the CS department got placed at good companies. All the students get internships.

Infrastructure: The hostel and infrastructure are very good. The hostels are new, fully furnished, and the food is also good. Classrooms are nicely furnished. For sports, they have two major grounds. Most importantly, they have a roomy library where students can go and study at any time.

Faculty: The teachers are well-qualified and help students most of the time. The curriculum is also nice. Semester exams are a bit difficult, but we can say it's to the students' advantage. The curriculum makes students ready for future endeavors, as it mostly teaches practical things rather than theory.

Other: After NIT Srinagar, it is the best engineering college in Jammu and Kashmir.

Limited exposure requires extra effort and developing over time.

Placements: Placements are average, but most secure jobs or higher studies. CSE is the best here after NIT Srinagar. IUST collaborates with IIT for internships. Companies like Amazon, IBM, and Wipro visit. The median package is 5.4 LPA. The highest salary is 7 LPA. One senior secured 65 LPA off-campus in 2024.

Infrastructure: It's decent and depends on how much you can adjust. Classrooms are spacious with Wi-Fi. The campus is beautiful, surrounded by mountains. There are canteens, cafes, stationery shops, medical facilities, and a well-equipped library. Hostels lack Wi-Fi, wardens are strict, and the mess food is above average.

Faculty: The CSE faculty members here are excellent. They are well-educated, knowledgeable, helpful, and great at delivering lectures. Most professors hold PhDs or M.Tech degrees. The semester exams are moderately difficult but manageable. Class notes are very important and sufficient for good CGPA. The pass percentage is around 85 percent. Internal assessment, assignments, and lab work also contribute to final grades. However, like most universities, self-learning and internships play a crucial role in getting top-tier placements. However, the exposure is somewhat limited, so students need to put in extra effort by seeking off-campus internships, competitive coding, and networking opportunities to stay ahead.

Other: Fests and departmental programs happen regularly. There are various clubs, though extracurricular activities are still developing. Managing them with studies can be tough since the university focuses more on lectures and academics.

Placements: Almost 80% of students got placed in this course. This course has a package of rupees 1.5 LPA which is maximum and minimum of Rs 50,000.

Food technologies, quality manager, consumer safety officer, and many more roles are offered.

Infrastructure: Our department has a lot of facilities such as well-equipped labs, good Wi-Fi, spacious classrooms, and library with a lot of good books available. The hostel has good facilities. The food in the mess is good, and canteen is good as well. Medical facilities are also available. A lot of sports can be played here. There are a lot of games that we can play.

Faculty: Teachers are really helpful, well-qualified, and have vast knowledge. The teaching quality is really good. It gives a lot of good exposure to the students. Semester exams are enough difficult. The pass percentage is 50% here.

Other: I am really into food and it's processing. The best thing is that you learn many food-related things like the nutritional value, etc. I guess industrial visits. A lot of events and fests often happen here. The campus is vast with good surroundings.

Absolutely good for placements and a good environment for students. It is a value for money.

Placements: There are currently 63 students studying in my course batch. The previous batch of ours got the highest package of 26 LPA. The top recruiting company is Nestle. About 35 students got internships. The top roles offered are in FSSAI, food quality management officer, etc.

Infrastructure: The library is great. The classrooms of some courses are bad, and the washrooms are unclean. Wi-Fi is available 24x7. Labs are amazing and fully equipped with the latest instruments, equipment, and technology, and the staff is highly trained for the same. Students are encouraged to participate in using the equipment and are taught as per requirement.

Faculty: Teachers are good, however, there are some subjects whose staff and faculty are bad in temper. Some teachers are known for being rude and holding grudges against students, even if they haven't done major discipline or things along those lies. Assignments and projects are given, and mentors are helpful.

Other: The events and fests that the university hosts are amazing. Students enjoy the life in the university. Scholarships are also provided for those who are not able to pay for their studies and encouragement is given. Extracurricular activities are also arranged.
