Unlike many other premium engineering institutes, IIIT Allahabad offers a number of enriching experiences apart from the curriculum. There is a scope of exploring the writer inside you by becoming a part of the literary club and spending your time reading/writing. This has been one of the most successful and enriching ways to spend a weekend.
If your home is nearby, (Lucknow or Kanpur) you have a good chance of visiting home at the weekend. Moreover, there are a number of tournaments and championships also being continuously organized on campus to keep the students active and develop them holistically. There are coding competitions and championships organized too.
Taking a stroll during the nights inside the campus is a beauty of its own. It’s a massive campus with lots of trees which gives peace of mind specially needed for the weekends. You might also want to utilize your time to finish all your uncompleted assignments, projects and other academic related documents.
If you love traveling, you can plan a very nice trip to Varanasi from Allahabad.
