IIT Madras Campus: Photos, Virtual Tour

IIT Madras campus has good infrastructure, almost every department has their department buildings, some common classroom complexes, library, 24*7 reading hall, lab facilities, sports complex, gym, grounds and courts for all the sports. We have good number of amenities in the campus such as CCD, food court, campus cafe, eateries shop, general stores, utility shops, shopping complex, etc. There are buses running through the campus from hostel zones to different gates of IIT for helping students to travel. Every Saturday we have movie screening in open air theatre and the vibe is best.

Overall my campus life has been great till now, apart from a really hot humid weather here in Chennai (summers are almost inhabitable). We make new friends and get to know different cultures because there are people from every part of India. Senior-junior interactions are also good here. We do not have big ragging culture. We have variety of clubs and teams here, be it cultural (like Drama, Choreography, Music, etc.), competitive teams (Raftaar, Avishkar Hyperloop, Agnirath, etc.), entrepreneurship (e-cell, Nirmaan, etc.) and other teams that you get to know once you come here. One of the best things about IIT Madras is that all the things are run by students unlike other IITs, so you get to learn about student politics also. We have 2 annual fest Shaastra (tech fest) and Saarang (cultural fest) apart from E-summit, sports fest, etc. Every weekend there will be some event going on in the campus maybe a lecture, fun event, or some celebrity or guest speaker session.Read Full Review

The infrastructure is good and there are many academic blocks and especially if any biotech student joining your building is going to be crazy with full AC everything and the sports complex is really good, and all sports are available. The academic complexes are also big but old but it's fine. The department blocks are really good.

Overall campus life is really good there are always some events going on in campus clubs of all categories are present there are two big fests present Shasta and Saarang and its epic you can enjoy your full time. The fests are organised on big level celebrities and big artists come from all over the country to perform. So, you can meet your idols and everyone too.Read Full Review

The college has done too much work on infrastructure and provides facilities for students. Recently New Academic block and one new building near ESB have been made. Recently alumni have donated free AC bus service to all student and all travelers in campus. In library, they have opened one extension hall for 24*7 study facility.

One of best time for which students will wait is fest like Saarang, Shaastra, Mechanica, Schroeter, Inter -IIT, etc. These are the main fest for which every student wait. Mainly you will see too much crowding during SAARANG and SHAASTRA because these are well known fests where students come and enjoy. Generally it happens in December ending and January starting. Scroeter is just inter-hostel tournament where you will internal crowding during sports.Read Full Review
