LNMIIT B.Tech Review By Vanshita Gupta

Reputable for its good placements and merit-based admissions, LNMIIT is a semi-government institute located in Jaipur, Rajasthan. I like its competitive crowd, lack of reservations and focused environment. As a final year engineering student, I think it is a great option, if your end goal is a good placement in the IT industry.

Specialized programs of UG, PG and Ph.D degree are provided in the institute. Levels are provided at LNMIIT where UG admissions are purely merit-based (JEE Mains percentile) with a heavy emphasis on the IT industry. These UG courses include B.Tech in CSE, ECE, CCE and ME where specialization and minors is AI and Data Science can also be opted on the basis of percentile and availability. For M.Tech, CSE and ECE are available and for M.Sc, Physics and Mathematics are available with the eligibility criteria of 55% or more marks in the Bachelor's degree. In the case of Ph.D, multiple courses are offered including CSE, ECE, CCE, ME, Physics, Mathematics, Humanities and Social Sciences. The reason for such a precise number of courses is the quality of education and the emphasis on what best can be served by the Institute.

Faculty members are qualified and decent in nature in the institute. The majority of the faculty members have completed their education from prestigious Universities across the globe. Their teaching methodology is a mix of traditional and modern styles. Certain faculties are quite helpful and prove to be really good mentors, however few number of them can be troublesome in terms of grading and teaching. Overall, the quality education is delivered by all the faculties.

The Training and Placement Cell (TPC) of our institute is very active and has really good connections. It works hard enough to bring all good companies under basic and elite categories. They provide soft skill training along with resume building sessions in the pre-final year along with tons of Mock Tests, Aptitude and Logical Reasoning training as well. The TPC also schedules Mock Interviews and relevant meetings before the placement season to help students prepare well. They provide guidance in various domains like DSA and Web Development courses from Coding Ninjas and prepare a portfolio for each student based on all these activities. These things help them to understand the strengths and weaknesses of the student. On top of that, a good number of 2-5 companies visit the campus for on-campus internships including Deloitte, Intuit, and Media.net. Overall, the Placements are good with a minimum of 8-10 LPA, an average of 14-15 LPA and highest packages of 8 LPA and 40-50 LPA respectively.

LNMIIT is an institute with adequate hostel facilities. It has one girls’ Hostel and five Boys’ Hostels with single, double and triple occupancies. All the rooms have centralized air-conditioning which works for a good no. of hours in the morning, afternoon and night. BH-4 has a mess inside the hostel. The washroom facilities are decent as well with no frequent water or electricity issues. There is a common room, study room and a TV room in almost all the hostels for fun activities along with a separate gym and a small kitchen with induction. There is a laundry room (with automatic washing machines) in the girls’ hostel only. Overall the Hostel is good. The campus has amenities for students with disabilities as well, which include air-cooled, Wi-Fi enabled dorms with options for single or double occupancy.

With a well-stocked central Library that has over 15,000 books and access to 3500 international journals, LNMIIT has first-rate facilities. There are courts for badminton, basketball, tennis, football and cricket. Other sports facilities include indoor sports like squash and table tennis. It has a separate Kabbadi ground as well including a Student Activity Center (SAC) for various events along with gym and dance rooms. The lecture halls are air-conditioned with proper projectors and the latest technology. All the laboratories are top class and fitted with the latest equipment and facilities. Along with this, various other facilities are also provided since it's a residential institute like cafeteria services, mess services with good & hygienic food, laundry services, and few shops for street-style food, a stationery shop along with a newly opened restaurant.

The Campus life is decent due to good facilities and less crowd. The majority of the big festivals and events are celebrated by the institute. The campus life includes participating in lot of clubs and societies in all the domains like the cultural, sports and technical. Under cultural clubs, we have all the clubs including the Nukkad, Drama, Dance, Music, Fashion, etc. The Technical clubs include the Cipher, GDSC, E-Cell and many more. The sports society includes all the sports committees and activities. All these societies are highly active and help in holistic development. Apart from this, there is a bus facility from the institute to the city in case the students want to go to the railway station or bus stand or just to enjoy in the city. Since, the institute is approximately 18-19 km away from the main city, using services like Ola, and Uber is very expensive and slightly unsafe, considering the location of the institute. Hence, this bus service comes in very handy. So overall, the campus life is good.
