How is IIIT Vadodara for an M. Tech in CSE?

It’s better to look for options other than IIIT Vadodara for an M. Tech at CSE. Your IIIT degree from here would be a waste of a huge amount of money. A degree from IIIT-V would not help you in landing a 7 LPA job at the very least.

They do not own a proper college building. Be it infrastructure, labs, or assistant lecturers that have graduated from the same institutes, all are below average. The placement opportunities are as good as non-existent.

I have a few friends at the institute and according to them, M.Tech students are quite neglected. They are not even allotted permanent hostel rooms. This is a case in all the new IIITs. Therefore, you should avoid opting for the new IIITs as they do not have a campus of their own. You have the choice of taking a year drop and prepare for GATE. Evaluate your options and go for an institution that provides a guaranteed opportunity for good placements.
