B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering (Cyber Security) - Batch of 2026

3Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Overview of Indian Institute of Information Technology Kottayam .

Placements: The placements are decent here as of now. The median is around 10 to 12 LPA, and the average is near to 12 LPA. Location and recession are the main reasons for the limited number of companies. You can check out the placement statistics on the college website.

Infrastructure: The hostels are very good infrastructure-wise, but the freshers should stay outside campus hostels for their first year due to the limited number of hostels inside campus. Labs are well developed. Classrooms are good, and Wi-Fi is above average. Mess is above decent.

Faculty: The curriculum is good, which follows IIITH's curriculum. The faculty is friendly, and the examinations are reduced, which makes it stress-free for students. Being a IIIT, it solely depends on industry preparing subjects like CS communications and personality development.

Other: The college is good enough with a mix of everything.

Decent placements and developing infrastructure and facilities, but fees are slightly overpriced.

Placements: Considering the recession period, IIIT Kottayam has performed decently in the 2023–24 placement season. The highest CTC was observed to be 45 LPA, while the average is mentioned to be around 12 LPA (on and off campus combined) and the lowest around 4 LPA. However, the overall placement percentage has slightly declined when compared to the great placement season of 2022–23. Top recruiting companies like NVIDIA, HP, IBM, Media.NET, etc. have visited this year. Internship offers from various companies become grabbable starting from the 2nd year of college itself if the profile is decent and the projects have a good teaching style.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are good with Wi-Fi support, digital boards, etc. Labs have most of the necessary equipments required in adequate amount (Computer labs even have proper Ethernet connections). Hostel facilities are fine and adjustable, except for the insects (since the campus is located in a lush green place). Mess is unified, not hostel-wise. The quality of mess food recently varied because of increase in the number of students and lack of kitchen space. However, the two canteens (Milma Shop and Scoops) are easily accessible. We get quite a number of events and tournaments in sports and games but they have their own limitations.

Faculty: Teaching quality is good. Teachers are mostly helpful, humble, qualified and knowledgeable about a variety of research domains. There's a lot to learn from some of them. The course curriculum is really great considering that it has some similarities to that of IIIT Hyderabad. Students can get industry ready but they need to push themselves more than anything. Semester exams have moderately difficult levels (depending on the faculty who sets the paper) with a very high pass percentage.

Continuously upgrading and developing skills relevant to the desired field can enhance employability

Placements: In cybersecurity, there is no passed-out batch, so I can't tell you about placements in my course. This year, my seniors are the first batch. According to core placements, it's good now. Seeking internships during the course of study or during breaks can provide valuable work experience, practical skills, and industry exposure. Internships can often lead to full-time job offers upon graduation. Building a professional network through industry events, alumni connections, and online platforms such as LinkedIn can help students discover job opportunities and access hidden job markets.

Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure are good; we have separate classes and labs. There is no problem with Wi-Fi. The library is very small, but we get resources, and classrooms with AC are provided. Facilities in food are fine. Sports facilities are good; we have separate grounds for all sports.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful in our projects, and assistants like Ph.D. scholars help us in the lab activities. Yes, the curriculum is fine; it helps students get internships. The question papers we get in mid and semester exams are of a moderate to high level. The pass percentage is 5 CGPA.

Other: I am very interested in hacking, so I chose the course because of hacking. Hacking is very fun. I think this year I am going to learn more. My teachers are very helpful in projects. Improving interaction with students more and more is necessary. Fests and circular activities are very fun. They happen once or twice a semester. All the extracurricular activities are encouraged.

Satisfied with Infrastructure of IIIT Kottayam.

Placements: Campus placements are relatively low, with an average package of around 6 LPA for Computer Science and Engineering. The highest package reached 20 LPA. Many students secure internships independently, with top roles offered in fields like machine learning. Approximately 30% of students get placed.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is unreliable, often switching off, but classrooms and department facilities are satisfactory. Sports and games are encouraged, although the quality of the mess is inconsistent—sometimes subpar, though it has improved recently. Medical facilities are adequate.

Faculty: Some teachers are very supportive, while others display a degree of partiality. Overall, teaching quality is good, though semester exams are challenging, with a low pass rate of around 5.5. Mid-semester exams, however, are manageable.

Other: Events are well-organized, but they rarely invite notable guests or experts from outside the institution.
