IIT Hyderabad is the first institute in India to launch a BTech program on AI engineering. I think the credibility of a certain field can be judged by its cutoff and the cutoff of AI has been seen as giving an edge to CSE of IIT Hyderabad and other old IITs.

Yes, IIT Hyderabad certainly has the potential to grow at par with older IITs. The following rankings prove it further

  • NIRF: IIT Hyderabad Overall ranking by NIRF is 14 out of 200 colleges in India in 2022 and it was 16 out of 200 colleges in India in 2021.

The above rankings clearly tell that IIT Hyderabad is better than many old IITs and all new IITs. The only aspect IIT Hyderabad still lacks is infrastructure, which is because it’s still in the development stage.

However, it excels in all other aspects and it’s exactly why it has surpassed many colleges and has been growing at a fast pace.

  • There are 14 departments covering the Engineering, Science, Liberal Arts, and Design Areas. A course can be taken from the Liberal Arts Department for crediting. 
  • IIT Hyderabad along with top Indian institutes like IITM, CEWiT, IITD, IITK, IISC, and SAMEER is building the largest 5G testbed in the country.
  • IIT Hyderabad and Japan Collaboration: IIT Hyderabad has a very unique collaboration with Japanese universities and industries. 
  • IITH has MOUs with at least 50 universities globally, most of them in Japan, the USA, Australia, Canada, Europe, and Taiwan.

Is there AC in IIT Hyderabad hostel?

SY
Seema Yadav Posted On : May 9th, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Hyderabad

No, there aren’t ACs in IIT Hyderabad. Instead, there is a Radiant Cooling system that is equally good. In this cooling system, the walls and ceiling of the hostels have hidden pipes that have cold water running through them. The temperature of the water is controlled depending on the season and outside temperature. This system keeps the hostel rooms warm in winter and cool in summer.

To ensure judicious usage of water, recycled water from the rest of the campus is used in the radiant cooling systems. IIT Hyderabad takes water conversation very seriously and implements steps for the same.

How is the Engineering Science course at IIT Hyderabad?

HR
Himika Roy Posted On : May 9th, 2023
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Hyderabad (2021)

B.Tech in Engineering Sciences is a unique program that is being offered in India for the first time. Its uniqueness lies in the wide spectrum of specializations it offers enabling you to explore all your interests and options. 

  • Course Structure: The basic structure of the course comprises basic sciences like Maths, Physics, Chemistry, and different engineering disciplines including Computer Sciences, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, and Chemical Engineering in the initial years. After 2 years, you are left to choose a specialization of your choice. 
  • Suitability: This course is for those who are in a dilemma regarding the choice of branches but you are willing to explore various fields. It’s definitely worth the risk.
  • Curriculum: The first year is similar to other branches. The second year comprises courses from all disciplines like data structures, electrical circuits, solid and fluid mechanics, digital signal processing, etc. The third year will require you to choose the specialization in which you will be doing your courses. It's better to sort your interest by the end of the second year as you will be required to make a project related to your specialization in the 4th year. 
  • Choice of Specialization: Students of this program are given complete freedom to choose their specialization and there aren’t any rules regarding the number of people opting for a branch, or a CGPA criteria to get into a branch.
  • Campus Life: It’s important to know that your branch has zero relationships with the campus life you will be experiencing. Students of all specializations stay in the same place, enjoy the same facilities, living with the same people. 
  • Internships: Excellent internship opportunities are offered to the students of Engineering Science with some even interning at Amazon, ADP, Aerospace, IDRBT, ISI, etc. Basically, there are plentiful opportunities and your internships and placements depend on your efforts, projects, and academics. 
  • Degree: This program awards you a degree of B.Tech in Engineering Sciences with specialization in whichever field you choose.

Ultimately, the final decision rests with you!

How are the placements at IIT Hyderabad for M.Tech in chemical engineering?

V
Vaani Posted On : May 9th, 2023
M.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Hyderabad (2016)

I don’t think placement statistics of one year are enough to judge the credibility and worth of an institute. It’s better to observe placement trends over the past few years to get a better understanding of the placement scenario. 

My brother was a student at IIT Hyderabad till 2020 so I can give you information regarding the placement trends of the preceding years. 

IIT Hyderabad M.tech Chemical Engineering placement trends 2018.2019 and 2020

2018: Only 4 students got placed from the entire batch.

2019 

Out of 15 total students,

  • 1 student got placed in a Data Science Company.
  • 2 students got placed in a Chemical Engineering Design Company (Core).
  • 3 students got placed in a pharmaceutical Company (Core).
  • 4 students opted for Ph.D

2020: 2 core companies registered for the second phase of the placements meanwhile a couple of students got placed in non-core companies.

From the above trends, we can say that job opportunities have been improving over the past few years despite the lockdown situation. The number of companies is expected to increase in the coming years with better placement opportunities.

Tezal Dahiya Posted On : August 9th, 2023

IIT Hyderabad clearly triumphs over NIT Rourkela because of a number of reasons. Some of the string ones have been stated below

  • IIT Hyderabad is a recently established IIT so the infrastructure is new and the hostels are designed using the French design.
  • IIT Hyderabad has modern equipment and technologies in all academic blocks and all hostel blocks.

Jee Advanced Rank - 1386, Jee Main Score - 290, BITSAT Score - 339, Gujarat Board Topper. Where should I go for CSE - IIT (BHU), IIT-H, BITS PILANI or IIIT-H ?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : June 15th, 2023

You seemed to have performed quite well considering your JEE rank and BITSAT score. While most board toppers fail to do well in competitive exams, you managed to excellently score well in all competitive exams. You seem to have great opportunities ahead if you join BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus, and CSE. considering your ranks and your being a board topper, you can easily maintain an 8 +. The only major drawback is the high fees for which you can seek assistance from the institute regarding scholarships. 

Here are a few pros of BITS Pilani CSE

  • Top-notch placements
  • Excellent exposure
  • A flexible college life with responsibilities

If you face serious financial issues and are unable to get BITS, don't lose hope as other colleges offer great opportunities too. The best way to determine the worth of an institute is to evaluate it on the basis of fees, placements, campus life, and academic and professional exposure. Analyze your preferences and go for the institute that satisfies your preferences the most.
