How is life at IIT, Jodhpur?

Sayantan RayB.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology Jodhpur (IITJ) (Graduated 2021)

The permanent campus of IIT Jodhpur is spread across 872 acres. Life over here is pretty good. The senior-junior interaction is good and the peers are more like family members. Jodhpur does not offer much in terms of entertainment, however, we enjoy our campus life and try to make the most of it. 

There are two main fests, Varchas- the sports fest, and Ignus-the techno-cult-socio fest. Both these fests are conducted at a much greater level than other new IITs. Other than these two, there is the intra college fest- Spandan, the unplugged night, and Intra college technical fest-Nimble. Other than these, a lot more fun activities keep happening on campus. 

IIT Jodhpur is a small IIT, therefore, students from across streams get to actively participate in the clubs and fests. You will easily get PoRs here. The five societies at IIT Jodhpur include Arts and Design, Cultural, Sports, Technical, and Academic Research and Development.

The girls' hostel has a curfew set at 12 AM - 5 AM. Girls and boys are not allowed in each other’s hostel common area as of now. Both genders get equal opportunities in every respect and the faculty at IIT Jodhpur is learned and supportive.

Overall, life is quite great at IIT J and I am quite happy to be a part of it.

Are top NITs (Trichy, Warangal etc.) better than the new IITs (Jodhpur etc.) in terms of placement?

Savi Sharma

I would like to compare the top NITs with new IITs like IIT Jodhpur on several parameters, first talking about the placements as that is your biggest concern. By new IITs here I mean IIT Jodhpur and its contemporary IITs.

  • Placements- Initially, the top NITs were a lot better in terms of placements. However, new IITs have shown tremendous growth and their placements have come at par with the top NITs. For 2023 B.Tech placements, the highest package offered at IIT Jodhpur stood at INR 53 LPA, the average package stood at INR 21.30 LPA and the median package stood at INR 16.50 LPA.
  • Campus Life- Both the top NITs and new IITs like IIT Jodhpur have a great campus life. Now that the new IITs have their own permanent campuses, they offer their students all the facilities.
  • Brand Value- Surely the new IITs do not carry as great a reputation as the old established IITs. However, the new IITs offer you the IIT tag which has a great reputation both inside and outside India.
  • Branch Choice- It is always better to choose the branch that you will enjoy studying. If you get a good branch at an NIT/new IIT, choose that instead of a mediocre branch at an old IIT. This opinion, however, is highly subjective. Some of my friends believe quite the opposite.
  • Alumni Network- The top NITs are way older than the new IITs. That is why their alumni network is way stronger.

I would say that unlike in the past, today both old NITs and new IITs are at par. You should consider all the above factors and also your locational preference before arriving at a decision. One of my seniors told me that new IITs are growing tremendously and will soon outperform the top NITs at this rate.

What is the IIT Jodhpur placement for CSE?

Sayantani Barman
Rupali Samal

IIT Jodhpur CSE is the highest-placed branch for both BTech and MTech programs. One of my close friends completed her BTech in CSE recently and got placed with a decent package. On having a conversation with her and other friends who have completed the same course from other IITs, I arrived at a conclusion. While the CSE placements of almost every IIT are great, what sets IIT Jodhpur apart is the job satisfaction it offers. 

Usually, CS students receive high packages but end up leaving their job later because their job does not satisfy them. IIT Jodhpur has a different scenario,  the packages offered are lower than other institutes but the job satisfaction is higher. Most students end up with jobs they love and even find their batch mates and seniors in the same company thus increasing job satisfaction. 

Here are the placement statistics for the CSE department of IIT Jodhpur:

Can I get admission in IIT Jodhpur without taking the JEE exams?

Sabeer Chalana
Sarthak ChaudhuriB.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology Jodhpur (2022)

No, for every bachelor's course offered at IIT Jodhpur, you have to clear JEE Exam and get a rank that qualifies you for admission. Some IITs accept Bachelors admission with JEE Rank but not for engineering courses. For instance, IIT Madras offers a Bachelor's program in the Humanities department for which you only need to clear HSEE. 

Here are the programs offered by IIT Jodhpur and the exams accepted respectively 

BTech

JEE Main

MBA 

CAT

M. Tech and Integrated M.Tech+Ph.D.

GATE

M.Sc. and M.Sc. + M.Tech.

IIT JAM

Ph.D.

GATE, UGC-NET, JRF, or SLET

However, every engineering course requires JEE rank for admission irrespective of any IIT.

Who are some really good professors at IIT Jodhpur?

Sayantan RayB.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology Jodhpur (IITJ) (Graduated 2021)

Honestly, IIT Jodhpur has very few gem professors. My sister who studies there mentioned 2 of her favorite professors and why she considered them a gem

Shanmuganathan Raman: He deserves all the love and respect he gets from his students because of the kind of teacher he is.

  • His knowledge of his subject is excellent, sometimes leaving you speechless.
  • He has a great rapport with the students and you will be surprised to know that he remembers every student's name.
  • His South Indian accent is very charming and humorous.
  • His classes are intriguing and you won’t be bored even for a minute.
  • His explanations of the concepts are what makes most students his fan.

Kiran Kumar Hiremath: As a whole, he is somewhat like Raman sir only.

  • He has a very charming smile and he has a sweet nature.
  • He is proficient in his subject and delivers the concepts excellently.
  • He maintains a friendly bond with students often lightening the classroom tension with his jokes
  • He is a person filled with enthusiasm and gives off positive vibes during the lectures that motivate the students.
  • He adopts a decent grading system.

Additionally, she also mentioned Vivek Vijay sir who is a mentor to many students.

What are the disadvantages of IIT Jodhpur?

Sayantani Barman
Sayantani Barman

Every coin has 2 sides and likewise, every college has its strengths and weaknesses. IIT Jodhpur no doubt is a great institute offering excellent placement opportunities, startup encouragement, the IIT tag, and high-quality education but it has its own sets of demerits that affect its overall reputation. Here are a few of them

  • IIT Jodhpur has a very small batch size which minimizes exposure. Only a handful of students are interested in productive stuff and most of them just are here for fun
  • Despite being a technical institute, IIT Jodhpur prioritizes cultural activities a lot and the most influential people are from cultural backgrounds. Fewer students are attracted to technical societies and more importance is given to cultural fests.
  • IIT Jodhpur ranks even lower than some NITs because of the poor research culture it has. 
  • IIT Jodhpur is certainly lacking in terms of infrastructure. It has no well-developed market, enough canteens, and dining halls.
  • The institute has an 85% attendance rule with no proxy. 
  • IIT Jodhpur has a poor faculty-to-student ratio.

Individually these demerits are not very major, but as a whole, these affect the overall learning experience to a great extent.

What is the problem with IIT Jodhpur?

Namrata Das

I think the major problem that IIT Jodhpur faces is its locational disadvantages. It lacks facilities like flight connectivity with other metros and this directly affects the number and quality of MNCs that visit during placements.

Another problem that IIT Jodhpur students face is the long distance between hostels and college as they have to spend a lot of money traveling between campus and hostels. IIT Jodhpur also lacks in terms of academia and industrial ties again because of its poor location. However, the Mechanical engineering department has started several industry immersion programs so exposure is not an issue for them.

I am too confused between CSE at DTU/NSIT and IIT Jodhpur. What should I do?

Sabeer Chalana
Tithi AggrawalLives in New Delhi

I can never stop emphasizing this, no matter how many options you have always go for the one that gives you the IIT tag.

 I am not saying Engineering colleges like NSIT and DTU aren’t good but they are in the developing phase while IIT Jodhpur is in its developing phase. This means it will only get better. Despite being a new IIT, its average package this year was recorded at INR 21.30 LPA, which is a great feat for a new college. 

Additionally, IITs receive more funding from the government to provide better research and project opportunities. Specifically speaking about CSE, this year the highest INR 56 LPA was bagged by BTech CSE. The placement percentage stood at 97% while the average package for CSE was recorded at INR 23 LPA. 

DTU and NSIT may have higher placement statistics but they lack what IIT Jodhpur offers, the most coveted IIT tag! So choose wisely.
