How is IIIT Una?
Here are some of the facts regarding IIIT Una from a student studying there.
- The students studying at IIIT Una have NIT Hamirpur as their mentor institute but after the year 2018, the 2019-23 batch is left studying all alone without any seniors, societies and labs.
- There has been news going round that the new batches will be accommodated in the new campus in UNA as the transit campus 2 can not accommodate any more batches.
- The administration is not very effective and supportive. There have been many instances, once a notice came about Imposition of Rs 5000/ subject for short attendance without information about the same in the start of the semester. Ultimately it was dismissed as students revolted.
- There have been circular that says that the institute is not responsible for the placement as it is an additional service. Thus, it would be clear that the college won’t be bringing any good companies. There are few good companies for CSE/IT but no good core company for ECE.
- There won’t be much of a college life for the students studying here.
- The fee is also very high.
The only benefit of studying at this institute is to get the tag of IIIT. Therefore there is not anything in this college worth joining.
Which is better, IIIT Sonipat, IIIT Una, or IIIT Vadodara?
Direct communication cannot be compared but one of my friends suggested that IIIT Vadodara is an older institute in comparison to the others. The placement officer of IIIT V is good and will be helping in getting good placements by calling good companies to the campus. The college also sends for internships in companies like Amazon. Some of the students also got selected in Google Summer of code.

Since IIIT Una has recently opened, it is not working independently. This college has no relation with NIT Hamirpur which makes it a bit risky.
IIIT Sonepat is much better in terms of placement. The reason is that the companies find it much closer in distance as compared to other institutions. It can be suggested that you first check admission at IIIT Sonepat then at IIIT Vadodara and then go for IIIT Una.
It is always suggested to look for more information from the old alumni IIIT V as they will better tell you about the past placements.
How is the placement at IIIT Una? Are the students placed along the students of NIT Hamirpur?
IIIT students sit along with the NIT students during classes. During placements, the students of both IIIT and NIT sit together for campus placements.
In general, the placements of IIIT students are less as compared to NIT but some bright students of IIIT get good placement along with good packages. The IIIT students also sit for the campus placements at NITH but some companies don’t allow the IIIT students. At the end of the day, it only depends upon your capability, hard work, and talent. You will get ample opportunities for placements. The other facilities, academics, hostels, etc are all the same for IIIT.
