Good infrastructure, great placements, value for money.

Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is good, with fancy labs and equipment. I'm a day scholar, but the hostels are average, from what I'm told. CSE specialization has the best infrastructure. All classrooms have projectors, and all student desks have an allotted system with great specs. CSE regular and other computing batches have to go to labs for systems.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is so bad. I cannot even send a message sometimes. If I want Wi-Fi, I have to go to the Wi-Fi zone. Even there, the connection is slow. The classrooms are good in all semesters. The library is good, clean, and silent. So I can focus and do my work properly. I am an off campus student, so I do not know about the hostel. The medical facility is good. I visited the hospital twice during my third semester. It is good and clean, and the doctor is polite. Sports are important. Facilities are no...

SIST Chennai is a very special university.

Infrastructure: Hostels aren't that good, but overall infrastructure, needless to say, is so well planned. There are UK University-style buildings and a knowledge park, which has the university's largest cafeteria along with a library, a place to watch out for. Labs and classrooms are as modern as those in the universities in the US.
