Is IIIT Allahabad good for the course of integrated robotics?

Studied at IIIT Allahabad (2019)

I would say that it is not suitable for those who wish to pursue a career in research. Also, if you are hoping for good placements in any robotics company you will be disappointed. But first, weigh the benefits and drawbacks.

Pros and Cons:

  • You will complete two degrees in five years. But you do not need two degrees to get a good job; a B.Tech course is far superior in this case.
  • You will have a lot of time to concentrate on the work you want to do.
  • You will have the opportunity to study both B.Tech and M.Tech.
  • Some companies frequently provide more benefits to M.Tech students. But some will not allow you to sit because they do not accept M.Tech students.
  • You will only be paid for a period of ten months. M.Tech students, on the other hand, are paid for 22 months, whereas B.Tech students are paid for the internships they obtain in their final semesters.
  • Because of thesis work, M.Tech students are not permitted to participate in any internships during their final year.
  • To be successful in robotics, you must be skilled in mechanical, electrical, electronics, and software. Fortunately, the faculty here will be able to guide you in these areas.

Now consider the following factors that make it superior to the standard course:

  1. Robotics Faculty: Faculty is really nice here. They are very friendly, cooperative and will guide you in a good direction.
  2. Robotics Lab: Once again, one of the best and most prestigious laboratories is at IIIT-A.
  3. Nowadays, the majority of students are primarily engaged in simulation and algorithmic projects. As an IT institute, the majority of the topics are confined to algorithms and the software component.
  4. On the one hand, B.Tech IT strengthens our coding skills, while M.Tech specialization strengthens our mechanical and electronics sides. That is, a robotics student is a developer, coder, electronics master, and dynamics.
  5. Job Security: You have the same job opportunities as any other IT student and can even apply for a position as a professor in any private college. They will pay you more than private businesses.

This institute is the only one of its kind to offer an IT robotics specialization. That means your coding skills will undoubtedly come in handy. Other colleges place a greater emphasis on mechanical and physical aspects. So, if you're an IT enthusiast who enjoys coding robots, this is the institute for you.
