HITS: Fees, Admission 2025, Courses, Cutoff, Ranking, Placement

I am a student of B.Tech CSE at Hindustan University, pursuing a specialization in IBM cloud computing and virtualization. 

The CSE department is quite good. All its professors are friendly and supportive. The university focuses a lot on extracurriculars, even more than the academics. A number of workshops and events are regularly organized on campus. 

If you abide by the rules and regulations, you won’t face any trouble from the authorities. You will be offered a nurturing environment and ample growth opportunities. 

Hindustan University is a good choice for a CSE, given that you participate in events and make use of all the opportunities. 

Hindustan University is an excellent platform for your growth and development. Apart from providing you with a degree, it will also ensure that you become a skilled engineer. 

• Faculty- The faculty is mostly supportive. They will encourage you to take up projects, and not be stuck with just textbook learning. There are mostly young teachers.

• Innovation Cell- There is an innovation cell at the University that encourages innovative ideas within the students. Since its inception, the college has witnessed around five new startups. Events are hosted regularly by this cell, and distinguished speakers are invited. They will help you grab internships, regardless of which year you belong to.

• Hostel- Hostel facilities are a bit lacking. The mess food takes some time to get used to.

• Extracurriculars- The university has five horses which take part in competitions regularly. Horse riding classes are held at 6 in the morning. Apart from hostel facilities, every other facility is good, and at par with what has been mentioned in the university website.

• Vigilance Officers- They are like the police officers of the university. If you abide by university rules, they won’t trouble you in any form. 

Hindustan University is mainly known for three branches- Mechanical, Aerospace and Aeronautical. The university is good and you can definitely consider it for your studies.

Hindustan University is lenient in comparison to other institutions in Chennai. But there are some rules that you should follow as its student-

1. Always wear your identity card inside the campus. Otherwise, you’ll be caught by the vigilance officers. Without an id card, you won’t be entitled as a student of this university.
2. You can bring your vehicles inside the campus. However, be sure to wear a helmet.
3. This is quite obvious, do not use your phone while the teacher is taking a lecture. Also, don’t use your phone when standing near Java Green. Your phone will be taken by vigilance people, and it won’t be returned easily.
4. Return your library book within the allotted time. Otherwise, you’ll have to pay a fine.
5. A minimum of 75% attendance is required to appear in the semester exam. But even if you have around 50% attendance, you can appear in the exam after paying a fine.

Students usually don’t take the rules seriously. However, I would recommend you follow these basic rules to not get into any trouble. 

As a student of Hindustan University, here is my honest opinion about my institution.

The fees are quite high, suitable for upper middle class candidates. The academics on the other hand, are quite average. The plus point is that you’ll get to meet people from different parts of India, especially Kerala. There is no dress code, so you can dress casually. The campus library is good. 

There are various engineering branches. Even though the university claims to be best in Aeronautical Engineering, this is not the case. Rather, Electrical and Mechanical are good over here. The campus is decent. However, the placements are very poor.

Hindustan University offers an average college life, and very poor placements. But it does have a good ambience and a diverse crowd.

Hindustan University offers various B.Tech branches, and the tuition fee varies accordingly. 

I am mentioning below the fee structure for B.Tech at Hindustan University-

Refer to this table and check the tuition fee according to the branch you are opting for at Hindustan University.

I am an alumnus of Hindustan University. I secured the 52nd rank in HITSEEE-2013 and got a 50% scholarship for my studies at HU. This makes me the right person to answer your query. 

On average, around 5000-6000 students appear for the HITSEEE each year. Rank 1-10 get a 90% scholarship, rank 11-50 get a 75% scholarship, and rank 51-100 get a 50% scholarship for their academic fee. If your 12th percentage is 90% or more, you won’t be paying any donation fee either.

Make sure to insist on getting that scholarship and donation fee exemption during your counseling. Else, you’ll be fooled into paying the entire amount.

The campus life of HU is decent. The university provides decent sports and extracurricular facilities. Only IT companies like Infosys and Tech Mahindra visit the campus for placements. Therefore, choose CSE/IT.
