is IIIT kottayam is good for education and hostel
Hi,
IIIT Kottayam is far ahead of other colleges in terms of its curriculum, which initially was not being impactful because of less recognition, but now things are changing. IIIT Kottayam follows the curriculum of IIIT Hyderabad. As the Institute has a supreme focus on developing a (great) coding culture among its students, all the core skills required for instilling the notion to code is taught in the 1st semester itself.
The central idea of the college revolves around its coding culture. Earlier, due to less strength of students, the coding culture was not able to make an impact, but in the last year, many national-level feats have been achieved by the students.
