Course Curriculum Overview :
Excellent and updated course syllabi, with revisions to the same every 10 years. The ECE course at IIITH follows a multidisciplinary routine, where courses also prepare you for CSE-related research along with ECE courses. Thus, you get a flavour of both while following one course. For the common courses, the faculty: student ratio is around 1:150. As the courses subdivide further, the ratio ranges from 1:30 to 1:15. Teaching Assistants are assigned for every course, and around 20-30 students are placed under 1 TA. The faculty here bear excellent academic records, with graduates from all over the world like Harvard, Stanford, IITs and CMU. Most often they are working on research projects at IIITH itself. There are mid-semester and end-semester exams, with two quizzes in between. The difficulty level is higher than most other college courses but is manageable.
