Will IIIT Lucknow surpass IIIT Allahabad in 10-15 years?
There are no specific criteria as such to decide whether a college has surpassed another or not. The rankings offered by different councils, don’t matter much and are somewhat considered irrelevant too. In general, people have an overall perception in mind, in which IITs are the best, followed by NITs and some well-known IIITs, and some IISc and BITS.
Comparison: (Winning Institution - IIIT Allahabad)
- Talking about IIIT Allahabad, it is quite well established and offers decent facilities and infrastructure.
- IIIT Lucknow is far from the standards of IIIT Lucknow, and it is difficult for the institute to reach the same level as IIIT Allahabad, even after 10-15 years.
- There is a level of saturation in the minds of students and educational advisors, where there are some limits of comparison. For example, IIT Bombay, IIT Madras, and IIT Delhi can’t be compared to NIT Trichy or NIT Warangal.
- Although NIRF rankings provide a way to categorize institutes according to their quality, there is a standard slab that decides colleges of the same level.
For the comparison of IIIT Allahabad and IIIT Lucknow, the former has made huge progress with time, and it is almost impossible for IIIT Lucknow to reach that level in the next 10-15 years. There is not much difference in location for the institutes too, so exposure will not be an advantage. In the best-case scenario, the gap in development between IIIT Allahabad and IIIT Lucknow may get reduced.

Which one is better for CSE, NIT PATNA, IIIT Kalyani & IIIT Lucknow considering the last year placements of 40 lpa at Patna?
Someone else's package doesn't guarantee that you'll also bag the same package. Out of mentioned options, NIT Patna is a better option not because of the 40 lakh package. The placement package had been offered by Adobe which is said to recruit 2 ladies each offering 20 lakh packages to each. But in 2018, Adobe hired a female student offering her 40 LPA package, which can be true or even wrong information. However, you should not take admission in NIT Patna just because someone bagged a 40 Lakh package. The package will depend on your dedication during the course. It will help you easily earning a 6-8 LPA package.

While there is no doubt that NIT Patna is an old institution, yet it lacks some of the basic facilities such as hostels and open spaces. The campus is quite small as compared to other engineering colleges. So, it does not feel like a proper campus to some students as they have to spend 4 years there.
In the present time, a mega hostel is being constructed but it is outside the campus. The locality surrounding the campus is very unpleasant.The good thing is that the campus is located beside Ganga, having some modern and beautiful ghats. The management and staff are strict and less creative.
Which should I choose among IIIT Lucknow, IIIT Bangalore or IIIT Delhi?
On an overall scale, IIIT Lucknow is a good option, despite being a new institute. Although, all three of these institutes are reputed. While choosing one of these, you should prioritize your choice of branch.
- Besides CS and IT, IIIT Bangalore started offering CSAI. It is a BTech in CS with an Artificial Intelligence specialization. AI is in huge demand these days.
- All three of these IIITs have decent curriculum, which is designed according to industry trends and needs.
- Despite being a new IIIT, IIIT Lucknow had good placements over the last few years. IIIT Lucknow placements 2022 had the highest CTC of INR 1.2 CPA. The placement rate for this year was 100%.
- All three colleges have good coding culture. From IIIT Lucknow, a total of 5 students were selected for GSoC 2021. IIIT Lucknow also has a Github campus expert.
These advantages make IIIT Lucknow a good choice.
Are IIIT, Lucknow students given the same facilities as IIIT, Allahabad? Are they allowed in various competitions held in IIIT, Allahabad?
IIIT Lucknow shifted to its own campus in 2019. Initially, it was mentored by IIIT Allahabad. On the new campus, the infrastructure and facilities offered are up-to-date. Students are offered access to modern technology, and amenities. Students are given hostel accommodation. The labs are equipped with the latest equipment and facilities.
Does IIIT Lucknow get good placement because of IIIT Allahabad?
This is true that the only reason IIIT Lucknow has great placements is simply because of IIIT Allahabad. It can be explained with the help of the following points:
- The students of IIIT Lucknow share the same classrooms where they are taught by the same professors that impart the same skills to students of both institutes.
- The competition at IIIT Allahabad is intense and it includes one of the most brilliant brains in the whole of India.
- The companies that visit IIIT Allahabad are the same companies that visit IIIT Lucknow as well to select students as their future employees.
If you are concerned about the fact that it would affect IIIT Lucknow once they shift, the straight answer to this is YES! With this, it is going to get difficult to expect companies to show up.
Which is better, IIIT Jabalpur or IIIT Lucknow?
Many of my friends have graduated from both IIIT Jabalpur and IIIT Lucknow. According to them, IIIT Jabalpur is much better than IIIT Lucknow. Here’s sharing some of them:
- At IIIT Jabalpur, you will find it is a well-established college. On the other hand, IIIT Lucknow is under development as well as IIIT Lucknow is shifting to its campus this year.
- In terms of placement, nothing can be said about its future and placement at IIIT Lucknow.
- The CS Branch, at IIIT Jabalpur, is good and its placement is sound enough.

What should I prefer, CSE at IIIT Lucknow or mechanical at MNNIT Allahabad?
For placements, IIIT Lucknow will be bast. But if you are interested in Mechanical then MNNIT Allahabad will be a better option. Although you should keep in mind that from the future perspective Mechanical will be a risky choice. Jobs are very less in the core sector and the package will be less. The competition is also quite high in both the public and private sectors.
Here are the recent placement statistics of the institutes.
| Parameters | IIIT Lucknow | MNNIT Allahabad |
| Average CTC | 18 LPA | 10 LPA |
| Highest CTC | 43 LPA | 49 LPA |
But in the case of the CSE branch, you will surely get a job with a decent package. You can also change jobs between different companies as there are many opportunities available as IT is a booming sector at present.
Is IIIT Lucknow fully functional?
The answer is YES, it is fully functional. Earlier IIIT Lucknow was dependent on the faculty and labs of IIIT Allahabad for the academics, but now, IIIT Lucknow regulates its own academic activities, organizes its own coding workshops. The classes also used to be run in the temporary campus situated in the lecture theatre of IIIT Allahabad. But from the academic year 2019-2020 itself, IIIT Lucknow has shifted itself to the newly made independent campus and has adopted the coding culture as in IIIT Allahabad.
IIIT Lucknow will have its item placements which will differ from IIIT Allahabad without a doubt. Because IIIT Lucknow is a newly made campus, chances are that few of the companies may not visit the campus regarding campus placements. But during the 4 years after which you will pass out, IIIT Lucknow may establish itself as a lead engineering institution and attract good placement packages. It solely depends on your hard work during the course and your calibre.
