How good is IIIT A (Amethi campus)?

IIIT Allahabad works in synchronization with the main campus. The campus is decent and well maintained. But as it is still in its developing phase, some adjustments are still required. 

Below discussed points highlights some of the amenities available at the Amethi campus: 

• Facilities, Hostel, and Infrastructure: The campus is still under development, but electricity, water supply, internet connection, library, and food are as good as any other campus in India.

• Computer Lab: There are six computer labs with approximately 270+ students. In the first year, students need to share a computer with two people. Afterward, students get their computers.

• Laboratory: There is a Multi-purpose laboratory used for EDC, Microprocessor, and other subjects. It is not up to the mark, but practical is interesting.

• Sports: There is a basketball court, volleyball court, badminton court, gym, and table tennis.

• Hostel: There are a total of three hostels, out of which two are for boys, and one is for girls.
• A proper canteen is also there.

• Guest House: There is a well-maintained guest house for students to visit their family or loved ones.

• Auditorium: A place for extra-curricular activities like seminars, quiz competitions, debates, dance, music, and official introductions.

• Faculty: The faculty is the same as the main campus of IIIT Allahabad. This is the reason that the classes start from 10 AM to 5 PM with a lunch break of one hour.

It's situated in a village named Tikarmafi, which is 10 km from Amethi. So, the place is secluded, and the least facilities are available here.

At present, the students have to be in Amethi campus for the first three years, and in the last year (fourth year) they are shifted to the Allahabad campus. So, placements are not different in Amethi and Main campus.
