RT
Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : October 6th, 2023

IIIT Lucknow is one of the best among all IIITs under the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) Program of the Government of India. A few key aspects of IIIT Lucknow are as follows:

  • Courses offered: IIIT Lucknow provides a wide range of courses under one roof. It offers B. Tech, MTech as well as MBA.
  • Placement: This year IIIT Lucknow concluded their placement with the highest package of INR 59 LPA and an average package of INR 30.52 LPA. Top recruiters like Amazon, Flipkart, Intel, BYJU, Capgemini, etc. visited the campus for placement. They gained huge success due to their coding culture.
  • Infrastructure: Being a newly constructed campus the hostel's infrastructure is in excellent condition. The rooms are very large and have basic amenities such as beds, study tables, and almirahs. Water and electricity are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week at the hostel.
  • Alumni: Monika Gupta (Assistant Professor at BITS Pilani), and Surya Prakash Pati (Assistant Professor at IIM Kozhikode) are a few notable alumni of this organization.

How is IIIT Lucknow?

SG
Sandhya Goswami Posted On : March 30th, 2021
B.Tech IT from Indian Institute of Information Technology, Lucknow (2020)

This answer would be exclusively based on how IIIT Lucknow is doing currently. To start with this, let us first understand what all factors together comprise to make any college a good college.

These include the following - 

  • Curriculum- The entire curriculum that IIIT Lucknow offers is two separate courses. These are B.Tech in CS and B.Tech in IT. This sort of course structure is apt for anyone keen to pursue their career in the technology field. 
  • Faculty- All the professors teaching at IIIT Lucknow are Ph.D. holders. But what you need to realize is that the faculty would not pay much heed to your skills and progress. 
  • College life- IIIT Lucknow may not be able to fulfill that desire of yours to be exposed to aspects like sports, dance, drama, business, music, qualities of a budding entrepreneur, etc. Their sports ground isn't as big as other IIITs have. You would have two badminton courts, two tables for table-tennis, two carrom-boards, etc.
  • Placements- Perhaps the most false claims about placements are made by IIIT Lucknow. All of IIIT Lucknow's placement credit goes to IIIT Allahabad.

Course Fee

9.81 lakh

Placement Percentage

Highest CTC

Average CTC

Recruiting Companies

Google, Microsoft, Direct, Nutanix, etc.

  • Internships- No student was able to grab an on-campus internship for them in 3rd-year at IIIT Lucknow. And this is simply because of a flawed system and no lab facilities. No one in my knowledge had an on-campus internship and this doesn't happen in general.
  • Fest- Lately, a technical fest was conducted by IIIT Lucknow. The students were happy and all excited but there are always bigger and better fests in other institutes. IIIT Lucknow is planning to execute a cultural fest, but accommodating the number of colleges will be a problem, as it is not spacious enough.

In case you're looking to join IIIT Lucknow in 2020-21, make sure you check out some Google images of hostels. The number of hostels is less. They have just one hostel that is cluttered with all the students from each year, including Ph.D. and M.Tech students.

What is the present scenario of IIIT Lucknow?

AS
Arpita Sinha Posted On : March 25th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Lucknow (2018)

My brother is currently studying at IIIT Lucknow and according to him, the current situation is not as good as it used to be earlier. 

Here is why:

  • As IIIT Lucknow is a completely new institute and as per the laws of MHRD, it was run under the guidance of IIIT Allahabad. Earlier there wasn’t any difference between the students of IIIT Allahabad and IIIT Lucknow. Even the placements of about 19 LPA were made by labeling them as IIIT Allahabad students. 
  • But in 2018, a case was filed against them to make IIIT Lucknow a separate entity. This resulted in the speedy construction of campus and the hiring of amateur professors.
  • The campus wasn’t completely constructed and the students have shifted there anyhow. There were some rooms that substituted for classes, one hostel, one mess, that’s all. To this day, they don’t have proper lab facilities too. You will be given laptops which are to be returned later.
  • Now coming to the placements, in 2019, IIIT L somehow managed to get average placement packages of 11 LPA. But for 2020, they weren’t able to call a single company. They also couldn’t get interns for the last year as well as this year’s batch. IIIT Allahabad, on the other hand, had an average package of 22 LPA and it is getting better every year.

At the end of the day, IIIT Lucknow is facing a crisis due to no experienced faculty, no placement/internships, and no alumni base. This is a matter of your entire career so do not fall bait to people from IIIT Lucknow stating that it's better than any IIIT. There is no comparison of IIIT Lucknow with IIIT Allahabad or any top NITs.

Do CSE students really need not study physics, chemistry, and biology as students of IIIT Lucknow keep saying?

AS
Ayushi Sinha Posted On : September 15th, 2022
B.Tech in Information Technology, Indian Institute of Information Technology, Lucknow

To understand the basic of CSE, you need to study science subjects such as Physics, Mathematics, etc. You need basic understanding of these subjects, to handle tough engineering concepts. These subjects also help build logical and conceptual thinking. If you don’t have a basic understanding of these subjects, you will learn to code blindly. This isn’t beneficial in long run. Top technological institutes like IIIT Hyderabad have compulsory science subjects.

Yes, there are full chances of that happening.

The students of IIIT Lucknow will turn this statement into a reality. The real worth of any institute is not measured by how many courses it has, or what is the infrastructure like, or anything; it primarily depends on the type of students study there. That’s the real quality.

  • The seniors, juniors, fresher everyone here is full of enthusiasm and passion to perform well and achieve success at whatever they choose to do.

  • The holistic development of the individual is paid extra attention to and not just scoring good marks and getting a decent score.
  • Moreover, the recruitment statistics shown to you are real. There are no scams and no misleading data to attract the top quality of students.

Is IIIT Lucknow a good option for doing an M.Tech or not?

VS
Vipul Singh Posted On : March 18th, 2021
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Information Technology, Lucknow (2020)

The M.Tech program in Computer Science (CS) at IIIT Lucknow is worth considering if you cannot get into other similar institutions such as IIIT Hyderabad, IIIT Bangalore, IIIT Allahabad, NIT Warangal, NIT Trichy, and NIT Karnataka.

  • Though the M.Tech program started only in 2019, companies such as Google, Microsoft, Directi, LinkedIn, Codenation, etc. visit the campus for placements of B.Tech students. So if you are skilled enough, it does not really matter if you are a B.Tech or M.Tech student. The placement records of B.Tech graduates suggest that they are comparable to NIT Calicut, NIT Rourkela, and IIIT Allahabad graduates. 
  • In fact, looking at the NIRF data of colleges such as IIIT Allahabad, it is clear that M.Tech students are more in demand in the industry due to lack of quality students along with their added research experience in the field.
  • The curriculum of the course is also very well designed, offering specializations in Data Science and Artificial Intelligence. These are the most demanding subjects in the industry currently and if you study well enough, securing a job should not be difficult.
  • As this is a new course, you will not get the alumni advantage, the first batch is yet to pass-out, you could still connect with your B.Tech alumni as well as alumni from IIIT Allahabad (both the colleges were on the same campus until very recently). 
  • Alternatively, you could also hang out with your B.Tech peers and learn from them as well, because they have a very well-laid-out course structure along with a very competitive culture in coding. 
  • You should also consider studying with the PhDs as the knowledge and in-depth research they conduct in areas such as Machine learning will eventually help you to get a competitive advantage.

So all in all, IIIT Lucknow is a very good option for doing an M.Tech which will sharpen your skills and prepare you for the journey ahead.
