How good are the placements of IIIT Allahabad for an M.Tech? (Not a B.Tech)

PK
Poulami Kar Posted On : March 16th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (2019)

Yes, any M.Tech person who is looking for placement is going to find one. Any person with an M.Tech background is pretty easily placed in brilliant companies like Goldman Sachs, Qualcomm, 1mg, Flipkart, Amazon, Daily Hunt, Razorpay, Swiggy, Phillips, etc. In case you are curious even in the least bit about your CTC, you need not worry as the highest CTC went up to 34 LPA. This was grabbed by people with an M.Tech background. 

Categories

IIIT Allahabad

Course Fee

1.04 lakh

Placement Percentage

96%

Highest CTC

43 LPA

Average CTC

20 LPA

Also, you will have better chances if you have great coding skills and knowledge concerning all your technical subjects. This can help you get placed pretty easily in any of these brilliant companies mentioned above. 

Having said that, you should also keep in mind that there are companies that reject people with an M.Tech background. NITs or IITs too, do not always accept people with an M.Tech background. 

Nevertheless, you would come across heaps of opportunities where you can showcase your skills and impress the panel.

What is the stupidest thing you have heard in a IIIT Allahabad classroom?

AG
Ankur Goel Posted On : March 16th, 2021
Master of Technology Machine Learning, Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (2020)

A friend of mine attended IIIT Allahabad and he shared a few anecdotes from his time there with me. His favorite teacher used to be Dr. Sanjai Singh. He used to teach many subjects from Optics to Digital Electronics to Quantum Mechanics. 

  • His favorite topic was ‘Wave Theory’ which he intentionally used to mispronounce as ‘Babe Theory’. This used to be a laughing riot. 

  • Out of 80 students, 7 chose Quantum Physics as their electives. He asked those students if they chose the subject on their own or it was imposed upon them. He also said, ‘They assigned this subject to me, but the syllabus is on MIT level. Let’s try and see if we can complete it.’ 
  • For Digital Electronics he taught conversion from Binary to Decimal to Hexa for 3 weeks. And started a completely new topic afterward.
  • He memorized the whole ASCII table and made everyone note it down from the blackboard by saying there will be questions in the examination from it. 

My friend was very fond of Dr. Singh and still reminisces about those days.

How good is IIIT A (Amethi campus)?

AC
Anwesha Chatterjee Posted On : March 11th, 2021
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (2018)

IIIT Allahabad works in synchronization with the main campus. The campus is decent and well maintained. But as it is still in its developing phase, some adjustments are still required. 

Below discussed points highlights some of the amenities available at the Amethi campus: 

  • Facilities, Hostel, and Infrastructure: The campus is still under development, but electricity, water supply, internet connection, library, and food are as good as any other campus in India.
  • Computer Lab: There are six computer labs with approximately 270+ students. In the first year, students need to share a computer with two people. Afterward, students get their computers.
  • Laboratory: There is a Multi-purpose laboratory used for EDC, Microprocessor, and other subjects. It is not up to the mark, but practical is interesting.
  • Sports: There is a basketball court, volleyball court, badminton court, gym, and table tennis.
  • Hostel: There are a total of three hostels, out of which two are for boys, and one is for girls.
  • A proper canteen is also there.
  • Guest House: There is a well-maintained guest house for students to visit their family or loved ones.
  • Auditorium: A place for extra-curricular activities like seminars, quiz competitions, debates, dance, music, and official introductions.
  • Faculty: The faculty is the same as the main campus of IIIT Allahabad. This is the reason that the classes start from 10 AM to 5 PM with a lunch break of one hour.

It's situated in a village named Tikarmafi, which is 10 km from Amethi. So, the place is secluded, and the least facilities are available here.

At present, the students have to be in Amethi campus for the first three years, and in the last year (fourth year) they are shifted to the Allahabad campus. So, placements are not different in Amethi and Main campus.

Who are some of the unappreciated people in IIIT- Allahabad?

TD
Tanya Dey Posted On : March 11th, 2021
Master of Science in Applied Computing, University of Toronto (2018)

There are no specific people who are left unacknowledged at IIIT Allahabad. Students like you and others, who have ever studied in IIITA, have never been appreciated for the prestigious job that they did to add up the reputation of the institute.

All students are the assets of any institute, but IIITA does not recognize all students through the same bar. Even the guards and administrative clerks get more value than the bright students in the form of alumni, who bring glory to the institute.

Management of College:

  • The management of the college does not give worth to the alumni. Every alumnus desires to aid their Alma Mater. Many good coders and computer scientists have brought fame to this institute, because of which some of the good companies visit the campus and place the potential students.
  • Most of the institutes have “Alumni Meets” to keep in touch with the alumni. The institutes give out awards to those who have achieved heights in society. Even the administration of IIITA never maintains the record of these alumni.

In IIITA, sportspersons are also not appreciated. The college is rigid in granting permissions to the sports team to go and participate in the tournaments. It is money-minded. Here, no one will pat the back of students even if they perform the best, be it sports or academics. Therefore, all students who in some or the other way contributed to the college are those unappreciated bunch.

What is unique about IIIT Allahabad?

SR
Sashi Rastogi Posted On : July 21st, 2022
Studied at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad

IIIT Allahabad’s most unique feature is probably the coding culture. Unlike most technological institutes in the country, coding is taught from the very first semester. Seniors take active initiatives to help freshers learn the ropes of competitive coding, App development, Web development, etc. The coding culture on campus is among the best in the country.

How is IIIT - Allahabad main campus?

AV
Ankit Vardhan Posted On : March 15th, 2021
IIIT Allahabad

The campus is a really beautiful place. It is located in Jhalwa, Allahabad and the infrastructure is really great. Most of the colleges you will see have a perpendicular style of architecture. This is not the case with IIIT A. You will find beautiful Penrose architecture stretching over 100 acres of land. They also have some of the best facilities to support the coding culture that the college boasts about.

There are also a number of hostels for boys. There are four so far and a newly constructed fifth boys hostel is also operational now. This is right outside the campus. As for girls, there are three hostels, which are located within the campus.

Another major plus point is that the campus provided residential facilities as well. These are mainly used by the faculty, the research scholars, and Ph.D. students. Moreover, you will also find a cafeteria and a small shopping center as well. You can buy your daily essentials here.

If you get bored, you can consider going to the Civil Lines at Allahabad but that’s about it. A campus is definitely a good place but you may get bored after some time, considering it is almost situated in a village.

We can compare IIIT Allahabad with other IITs and NITs in many levels, like Infrastructure, faculty, overall performance, The quality of the students, etc. The following are some of the things, when compared to IITs and NITs shows us the difference.

  1. Infrastructure: IIIT Allahabad is a newly built institution, whose infrastructure is as good as other IITs and NITs. The institute has good lab facilities, classrooms, a beautiful campus, and well-built hostels.
  2. Faculty: IIITA is still a new institution, and lacks professional and skilled faculties. However, there are several young faculty teaching in the institute and in coming years it will become one of the placements of top NITs. 
  3. Placement: IIITA placement cell cannot be compared to other top IIITs. The IIITA records do show good average placement, but it is not the scenario of all the branches. However, placement of IIITA is somewhat equal to CS of NITs, as IIITA has a strict placement policy.
  4. Environment: IIIT Allahabad has a decent student environment. It has some 1% of JEE Mains toppers enrolled. Which is definitely lower than IITs, as in other IITs admission done through the JEE Advanced. But IITA level is equivalent to other top NITs, including Warangal, Trichy, Surathkal.
  5. Research: There is no such research work named IIIT Allahabad. But research works are improving by the institute. However, it is equivalent to NITs. But still not with IITs.
  6. Sports and Culture: The Sports and Culture activities on the IIIT Allahabad campus is not good as compared to other NITs, and IITs.
  7. Coding: IIIT Allahabad has a good coding culture. The institute students participate in a number of competitions such as ICPS-regional, and it comes second after IIIT Hyderabad. As in ICPS 5-10 teams qualify from India, and only a few teams can make up to an IIITA one team make it on the top of it. 

Therefore, IIIT Allahabad is equivalent to NITs but a level down from IITs.
