Our college is good for students who have an interest in space science.
Placements: The highest salary package offered in the avionics course in 2024 is 23 LPA. The highest salary package offered in the aerospace course is 13 LPA. The average salary package offered in the avionics course is 13 LPA. The average salary package offered in the aerospace course is around 6 LPA - 8 LPA. I don't know much about engineering and physics. I don't think it has much scope from here. If students are coming here, come only for knowledge, not to seek jobs.
Infrastructure: If students want to work in labs, this place is a heaven. Hostels aren't top-notch but they are better than NITs. Wi-Fi has restrictions for games and some websites like other institutes. The mess is not good. It does not provide good food like other colleges.
Faculty: Professors are very helpful. If students are enthusiastic about knowledge, this is the best institution. The curriculum is very difficult. Exams are difficult. Most of the work is lab-based so students can get industry-ready. The only bad thing here is the attendance. The attendance percentage is 80%.

A hidden gem of a college (better than new IITs).
Placements: The placements are mostly directly to ISRO, all students with a CGPA above 7.5 are placed in ISRO, other companies include space startups such as agnikool, SkyRoot, etc. Approximately 80–90% of students get placed, while many choose to go for higher studies.
Infrastructure: Excellent course infrastructure; the library is very huge with a large collection of books; 24hr 5G Wi-Fi for students; quality of food is average, but there are various food joints nearby, so that is not a big issue. Sports facilities are also good and improving every day, as now the B.Tech students will have credit for sports too.
Faculty: Every teacher is highly qualified, and we have a very good student-to-teacher ratio of 9:1. Every teacher can connect with you at a personal level; keeping less student intake is, I think, a pro for IIST. The course curriculum is relevant, and we are also taught some space-specific stuff. The freshmen now also have the option of various minors.
Other: I wanted to learn robotics and ML from the age of 14, so I took this course. The college is lovely and above many new IITs in the studies and research aspects. I think the facilities are not at that level, but considering that the strength is approximately 1000 students. Overall, it is pretty good.

Learning and enduring platform.
Placements: The recruitment drive is not that strong, and mostly off-campus students get placed. The highest package offered was 10 lakhs per annum, and the lowest was 3 lakhs. However, there are good internship opportunities related to projects that students get, and generally research-related roles are offered.
Infrastructure: The department is huge. We have various types of labs for experiments and research. We have a library and the hostel also provides us with basic amenities. The medical care and help are also available. The food is hygienic and taste may depend upon individual choices.
Faculty: Specialization options are provided to students and accordingly, the curriculum focuses on building the chosen area knowledge in depth. There are various seminars and webinars conducted to help us get industry exposure. The exams are a bit difficult.

Review of IIST - Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology.
Placements: The placements of IIST are amazing; the students get placed in ISRO; some of our alumni are working in NASA/JPL also.
Apart from ISRO, the placement is dismal, and generally 60% get placed in ISRO. Other than that, some other companies like MathWorks, Texas Instruments, Accenture, Infosys, etc. do come. The average package is around 10 LPA.
Infrastructure: The hostels are newly built, and they are well managed. The warden is a painter. IIST is very strict on rules. Washing machines are not available; you will have to pool your money and buy one yourself, and the cleanliness could be better. The course is good.
Faculty: The faculty members are really good; they have great Ph.D. and work experience; they teach on blackboards generally; they are interactive with the first benchers; many of the Physics faculty are not that into attendance policies; they are easy going. The exams are tough; getting a good CGPA is tough.

Everyday starts with excitement and ends with new learnings.
Placements: Just the previous year, I started my college journey. Undoubtedly, the Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology offers huge placement opportunities. For instance, in 2023, they had a 97% placement rate. Top companies like TCS, Siemens, and Persistent hire our college students.
Infrastructure: Basically, it’s a superb environment with all the necessities. Through various extracurricular activities, they pave the way for our development. Because of them, we are able to showcase our skills like leadership, passion, and empathy. This environment makes us feel our social responsibilities.
Faculty: Personally, I'm okay with all the lectures. I admire and am amazed by their work. However, they are very strict about our dress code. They play a major role in making us responsible individuals. Finally, coming to exams, it’s quite easy to pass.

It is a good college in terms of education.
Placements: About 80% of students got placed in the last year's batch. A few students choose to study further. The main recruiter is ISRO, so there are no highest package criteria. Along with ISRO, there are a few other companies like Skyroot and Agnikul Cosmos. Everyone got internship offers in ISRO and a few other companies and institutions.
Infrastructure: Apart from sports facilities, all facilities are available like labs, classrooms, a library, etc. The hostel facilities are good. The quality of the food is good. The taste is not good. I don't know what the staff says. It's South Indian food. I am a South Indian but I don't like the food. Medical facilities are good. There is only one small canteen in the entire campus. It is open only from 8 AM - 11 PM. It is difficult to find a canteen facility during exam time, so we need a night canteen.
Faculty: Teachers are well qualified and exams conducted by them also little challenging.Frome 2024 they made few changes is curriculum..they kept few credits for extra curricular activities it's good thing for future students.academics wise no complaint. IIST Is mainly focused on academics so study wise no problem
Other: Since my childhood, I wanted to be a scientist, so I chose this course. The easiest way to join ISRO is IIST, so I opted for this college. Sports facilities are good. The crowd in our college is very small. Due to less crowd, a few problems arise during college fests and events. Our college is far from the city. We have to depend on KSRTC. The connectivity is the main issue. Extracurricular activities are not supported by our college management. I am from a dance club IIST. There is no support from the management. We ask for permission for everything that we require.
