How good is business informatics in IIIT Allahabad (in terms of placement and curriculum), and what is its cutoff?
Business Informatics was chosen by one of my friends at IIIT Allahabad. So, I will be able to share some of his experiences. The course mainly focuses on business and technology domains. The faculty is very helpful and supportive and you feel like home here.
Placements:
- The branch was established in 2019 which is why there are currently no placement statistics.
- However, you can assume that they are almost the same as IT, because after all, it's an IT branch, and then BI as a specialisation.
- You don't need to worry about placements, because it's really a worthy discipline.
Cutoffs: If you are in the general category, the cut-off was approximately 7100 according to the last year. Perhaps this year also the cut-off will be similar due to low deviation. The Cut-off stats of 2020 of JEE Mains by NTA are as follows:
|
GEN |
70.24 |
|
Other Backward Classes (OBC) |
72.88 |
|
Scheduled Caste (SC) |
50.17 |
|
Scheduled Tribe (ST) |
39.06 |
The institute’s course curriculum covers all subjects of the IT branch, plus one additional subject for BI. It will be quite difficult for you to cope up with all the subjects but if you work hard then it will be easier for you.

What are my career prospects after pursuing M.Tech in Computer Technology (Electrical Dept.) from IIT Delhi?
My friend completed her M.Tech in Telecommunication Technology and Management from IIT Delhi and also did some extra courses in Computer Technology from Electrical Department.
These courses usually cover Software related topics with very less focus on mathematical analytics and circuit design. Students from Instrumentation backgrounds expect Analytics and Design but the reality is IIT Delhi has very limited choices in this field. Most of the optional courses offered are related to CS and are much more promising than Analytics. If you are okay with programming, coding, and software development then go for it at once.
Rest assured, you will never get to doubt the packages offered during the placements of Computer Technology. It has the highest packages among all the Electrical Department branches.
You get what you seek, hence the more you are willing to get, the more opportunities you will have to explore other branches of IIT Delhi.
