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.

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...

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.

Good placements, average faculty, good infrastructure, but really bad Wi-Fi.

Placements: Placements were near 100% for the previous batches. The first batch of my course is yet to pass out so the placement states are not yet available but I assume it will be around 10–12 LPA average. A lot of companies come for recruitment for the CS branches; I think the highest package went for 56 LPA.

Incredible Campus Life with Stellar Academics but Limited Placement Opportunities.

Placements: Analyzing placement trends over recent years shows consistent growth. Success rates have increased from 75% in 2020 to 85% in 2021, reaching 90% in 2022. Factors like enhanced industry partnerships and tailored career services have contribute to this upward trend.

Review of Indian Institute of Information Technology, Kottayam.

Placements: You need to get a minimum of 8 CGPA to qualify for a job offer or interview. In my CSE core course, the highest package is 48 LPA and the average package is around 10 LPA. Mostly all the students will get placed on or off campus. Many companies visited our campus.

Amazing experience because of the location, placements and people.

Placements: During my year I. e. 2021-22, the placements were pretty good. Infact this was the year when IIIT Kottayam blew up in terms of placement. From batch of 87, 84 students got placed. The highest package offered was around 42 LPA and average package was around 11 LPA.

A great college that is bound to improve in the future.

Placements: It's alright. A decent chunk of companies conduct virtual drives on our campus. The placement rate has been pretty decent. The average package would be around INR 7–10 LPA, with the highest being around INR 58 LPA. Amazon and Palo Alto were some of the top companies that visited.

IIIT Kottayam pros and cons.

Placements: I'm a member of the placement cell and as the previous placement year passed, it was great news that we got almost 100 percent placements, with an average package of INR 15 LPA and the highest package of INR 58 LPA. So yes, placement-wise, you will get enough opportunities just for internships; they don't allow you to go in between semesters.

The highest package offered is 23 LPA, while the lowest package offered is 4.25 LPA with the average package just above 8 LPA.
