How was your experience at IIT madras?

A close relative of mine was a student at IIT Palakkad which operates under the mentorship of IIT Madras and had the absolute delight to spend some time in the IIT Madras campus for her 1st-year workshop course.

Accommodation: All boys were made to stay in the Krishna Hostel which accommodates students from various courses; BTech, MTech, and even Ph.D. students. The rooms were allotted on a double occupancy basis. The building was quite old but the new rooms were decent and the washrooms were clean and hygienic.

Connectivity: Every room had its own LAN port but one had to login credentials to use the internet.DC++ could be used directly and worked smoothly.

Food: Unexpectedly the north Indian food served in the Himalayan Mess H all was good and the quality was also decent.

As my sister was specifically there for the workshops, she visited the labs that were top-notch and well under the supervision of great instructors who were eager to teach. She was impressed with the highly experienced staff who taught concepts with such dedication she had not seen before. She was able to make the most out of her 10 days because of their relentless guidance and support.
