Navigating College Path - IIITD Life
Likes
- The academic culture - It's more into making students very well academically focused and bringing out innovative ideas
- The infrastructure - Which is quite new, studying places like a library, discussion rooms, tutorials, lecture halls, and a separate R&D building is top-notch and air-conditioned with every facility available at labs
Dislikes
- Small campus area - There is nothing much to explore and fun in visiting when the campus area is limited.
- Inactive societies - The clubs and societies in the college aren't very active. There are only a few that are worth joining. Mostly are tech-related
Remarks :
Factors that made me choose this college were a research-based culture and an academically driven environment. Further, the placements get the edge over other government colleges. Most importantly, this college has grown tremendously in the past few years and has made a reputed image. The only written test I've given for admission was JEE mains(Joint Entrance Exam). Some students often come internationally through DASA. There is also 75% board criteria for admission.
Course Curriculum Overview :
I chose Btech in electronics as it will be a booming branch in the coming years. India is going towards manufacturing, which will create opportunities in this field. The faculty are highly qualified, and most have international exposure. They have innovative teaching methods, making the class quite interactive. The exams have equal weightage. Whether it's mid-term or end-term. In addition to this, there are weekly quizzes that are equally important, like a term exam. The difficulty level of exams is quite high, especially in maths and programming. Students are allowed to bring cheat sheets in some as per course instructions. Plus, the assignments sometimes get quite challenging to complete.
Internships Opportunities :
Since I'm in my first year, I have been more into exploring college. However, there are decent internship opportunities in the college. Quite a few get the job at the start of 4th year itself. College is active there
Placement Experience :
Placement and job opportunities in the college are very bright, especially if a good CGPA is maintained, which is over 7.5. So the college itself is enough for getting into placements. However, since this year's recession has hit, there has been a downfall in placements at every engineering college even if it's an IIT. Almost every tech giant has recruited students from college. I've talked to seniors who got jobs at Google, Microsoft and Amazon On average, the placement is 15LPA to 18LPA. The highest placement varies every year 70-80% of the registered students get the placement. It's higher in the computer-related branch My plan after getting the degree is to pursue master from foreign like the USA
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
The fees are taken per semester. As I'm in the first semester, I've paid 142000 and 95000 as JAC counselling fees, which are added to the total expenses. Apart from the hostel, which is 54000 per semester, there are no further fees other than that. And yes, there are scholarships for economically weaker students. Also, they are given laptops. IDFC and SBI banks, as well as companies like Reliance and ONGC do provide scholarships. Below the poverty line, there is a total fee waiver. But one needs very proper documents for it.
Campus Life :
Odyssey is one of the most popular cultural festivals of IIIT Delhi. It's usually conducted in January. Most of the books and research papers are available in the library. And new trend books are added from time to time. The library system is digitalized. Even though almost every kind of sport is available but, the ground and the area of the sports complex isn't impressive. There isn't much extracurricular activity as it mostly gets into academics. There is also a swimming pool with a heater and the gym is air-conditioned
Hostel Facilities :
The menu of food is pretty decent and nutritious. There is variety in the food, and the quality is home-like. Cleanliness is very well assured. The registration process for a hostel is followed by student ERP. Getting a hostel is challenging if the house distance is less than 30km. Outside Delhi, students are given preference. Hopefully, I got the hostel so the college is the locality. The hostel rooms are big and in good condition.

Gargi Colleg , Delhi university
Placement Experience :
The placement is good for students of commerce background and even many arts students get placement. But for science students, there are rarely any science background companies hiring as even as an intern. Many science students go for higher studies. So, Rarely science students get placement and if placed then not in company of science background.
