RJ

Indian Institute of Information Technology, Pune is still new to other IIITs and is less reputed than them. 

The institute has just witnessed placement for its 1st batch of ECE and CSE. The following table shows the placement stats for the institute:

Highest CTC

22 LPA

Average CTC

7.58 LPA

Highest Stipend

Rs. 30,000

Top Companies

Amazon, Accenture, Virtusa

Total Students

450

You can ask IIIT Pune students about their experience and then can decide whether it would be a good choice for you or not. However, it is advisable to choose other reputable colleges that have strong alumni and good placement records. It has an ‘INI’ tag and after a few years maybe it comes to one of the top Engineering colleges. 

Therefore, if you have not scored well in JEE then you can opt for IIIT Pune. As Pune is an IT hub, you can expect job opportunities thereafter completing your studies.

The condition of hostels in IIIT Pune is quite good, compared to most top institutes in the country. There are several reviews about IIIT Pune hostels, Wi-Fi accessibility, and sports opportunities on campus, and some of them are listed below.

  • The rooms of IIIT Pune hostels are on a 2-sharing basis. In the girl’s hostel, rooms are styled like apartments with attached bathrooms in each room.
  • The main building in IIIT Pune has an in-built Wi-Fi facility available. Previously, there was no Wi-Fi in hostels, but now it is installed.
  • The campus of IIIT Pune doesn’t provide the typical college life with a huge number of students and great city life. The overall batch of IIIT Pune is quite small, with everyone familiar with one another.
  • There are several clubs in IIIT Pune for events and participation. You can get into those according to your choice. Usually, you will get a lot of free time after classes and on weekends too if you don’t join a club or the other.
  • Pune city is somewhat far from campus and so, transportation is a bit difficult for students, and self-transport arrangement is preferred.
  • The campus of IIIT Pune is small and beautiful, with nice weather and a peaceful environment. There are hills surrounding the campus where hiking opportunities are available.
  • As per as sports is concerned, cricket, volleyball, football, table tennis, badminton, and some indoor games are available, so the number of options for sports are limited.

This is the overall overview of the campus life, hostels, and Wi-Fi facility on the campus of IIIT Pune, which is considered to be decent and satisfying.

Which is better, IIIT Pune or IIIT Sri City?

SK
Saloni Kaushik Posted On : March 19th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science, Indian Institute of Information Technology, Pune (2021)

Among the above two institutes, IIIT Pune is the definite choice, considering a number of factors including IT industry exposure, internal competition, and overall development in the institutes. I know a few people from both institutes, so I can give you an idea about them.

Location:(Winning Institution - IIIT Pune)

  • Presently, Pune is considered to be a large IT hub, with offices of several companies from different sectors too. In 2018, Pune was listed as the second most paying city for software engineering jobs in India, after Bangalore. 
  • For research-minded students, there are several institutes in Pune including the National Chemical Laboratory, and the Indian Institute of Science, Education, and Research (IISER, Pune). This will give you a bundle of opportunities.
  • Pune is a metropolitan city in itself, whereas Sri City is 74 km away from the closest metropolitan city, Chennai.

Student Intake:

IIIT Pune takes in a total of 120 students per year, 60 in CSE, and 60 in ECE. On the other hand, IIIT Sri City takes in 270 students per year, 200 students in CSE, and 70 in ECE. Therefore, it is evident that a lesser number of students will get better attention from professors, less internal competition, more opportunities, and a focused learning experience.

Mentor Institute:

IIIT Pune’s mentor institute (College of Engineering, Pune) is located in Pune itself, whereas IIIT Sri City’s mentor institute is IIIT Hyderabad, 608 km away from it. So it is easier for IIIT Pune students to attend mentor institute events, lectures, and facilities.

Extra-curricular:

Students from IIIT Pune have excelled in several sports events too, like IIT BHU’s Spardha. There are several Coding, Robotics, and technical events in which IIIT Pune students excel.

Future Development:

  • The growth pace of IIIT Pune is very fast. With a number of hardworking students and dedicated professors, IIIT Pune will soon reach a good height and will be considered a leading institute.
  • The 100-acre campus construction of IIIT Pune will get completed, which is being set up in between the city’s core industrial zone. After IIIT Pune receives its own director, the growth rate is bound to increase and so is the development of the institute.

Considering all of the above factors, IIIT Pune is a definitely better choice, providing several opportunities to students in the industry and research fields.

Which college should I prefer for CSE, VIT Vellore or IIIT Pune? Kindly consider factors other than placements too.

PG
Prachi Gupta Posted On : March 19th, 2021
B.Tech from Delhi Technological University (2020)

Among the above two options, IIIT Pune is the better choice, without doubt, considering several reasons such as fee structure, overcrowding, and the IIIT tag. One of my friends goes there, so I know a bit about the institute.

The table below gives a brief level of the two institutes.

Particulars

IIIT Pune

VIT Vellore

Highest salary 

Rs. 22 LPA

Rs. 41.6 LPA

Entrance Exams

JEE Main

VITEEE

Overall Fees

Rs. 9.17 Lakhs

Rs. 10-14 Lakhs (Depending on the type of hostel)

Key Highlights: (Winning Institute - IIIT Pune)

  • There is overcrowding at VIT Vellore, with almost 2300 students enrolled at CSE only in several categories. There is huge competition in VIT due to the number of students sitting in placement altogether. On the other hand, IIIT Pune has even fewer than 100 students in CSE, which is realistic and sensible for students to compete with each other.
  • In India, the tag of a government institute has its own value, which is a bitter truth in our country too. Along with that, the IIIT tag always has its own demand for placement in companies and higher opportunities.
  • The fee for IIIT Pune is always lesser than that of VIT Vellore, irrespective of the type of hostel chosen at VIT.

There are students who have joined VIT, left the institute due to overcrowding, and went to some other institute. Considering all the above factors, IIIT Pune is a definite choice.

Which is better for CSE among IIIT Pune, IIITDM Jabalpur, IIITM Gwalior and IIIT Chennai?

AR
Aditi Roy Posted On : December 28th, 2023
lives in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India

IIITDM Jabalpur is a premiere technical institute. It was established by the MoE in 2005. It is among the oldest and the most well established IIITs. 

The CSE department of IIITDM Jabalpur is better in comparison to the other colleges mentioned by you. This is evident in the preference of most students, as they give priority to IIITDM for their CSE over other IIITs. 

The placements of the CSE department have been quite good over the past few years. Moreover, IIITDM Jabalpur has a tie up with Japan, and top performers from each branch get a chance to visit the country during winter break. 

Thus, I would recommend you choose IIITDM Jabalpur for your CSE.

Which is better: IIIT Pune (CS) or IIEST Shibpur (mechanical)?

AR
Arnav Roy Posted On : December 26th, 2023
Lives in Kolkata, West Bengal, India

IIEST Shibpur offers a rich legacy and technical expertise, which makes it way superior as an institute when compared with IIIT Pune. But you need to decide whether you are interested in Mechanical or CS. Placement-wise too, IIEST Shibpur Mechanical is at par with other good engineering colleges in India. 

As for placements, IIEST Mechanical is a better choice. But if you are planning for a post graduation after B.Tech, CS is a better branch for you. You must secure a rank of 250 or less, and get into top IITs for your M.Tech CS. Doing so will be beneficial for your career, and you can expect job offers from top brands like Google and Directi after your M.Tech. 

On the other hand, an M.Tech in core branches like Mechanical won’t be as beneficial for your career. IIEST will offer you top notch faculties, and make your journey toward an MS/Phd. much easier, if you are planning for these degrees. 

Based on what your future goals are, you can choose either of these two colleges/branches. But as a fact, core CS jobs are much better paying than core Mechanical ones.
