Is PG available near IIIT Bhopal?
Yes, PGs and hostels are available near IIIT Bhopal. There are several hostels near the college, but they are not of adequate quality that would satisfy the students and their parents as well. A lot of students opt for private hostels and the problem with them is that they are very congested for them to stay. There is not enough space for people to adjust and that becomes a serious problem.
Therefore, it is highly advisable to opt for a PG. Apart from this, if one has to look for good and adequate hostels, they can look in MP Nagar which is 5 km. away from MANIT. The students can find good quality hostels there which will be suitable for their needs.

Which one is better, IET DAVV IT or IIIT Bhopal?
One of my friends studied at IIIT Bhopal. He said that pursuing engineering from IIIT Bhopal will prove to be better than IET DAVV. Here are some reasons as to why:
- The greater advantage of being a student of IIIT is that you get the tag of the Institute of National Importance.
- But at the end of the academic year, everything depends on your hard work.
- If you want to excel without the package of IIIT Bhopal bothering you then IET DAVV is not a bad option.
- But IIT Bhopal is run by MANIT Bhopal so another advantage for IIT Bhopal.
- The placement records for IIIT Bhopal are not yet done. The process is still going on for the batch of 2021.
The better option would be IIIT Bhopal without a doubt. However, IET DAVV is also good. But it ultimately is your choice and what you want to pursue.

What books are used in IIIT, Bhopal for a 1st year student in the IT branch?
As a first-year student, you will have the same syllabus and books as your batch mates in the CSE and ECE programs. My brother's friend studied from IET DAVV and his syllabus was the same too.
You will not have to study any specialization as of now, except maybe the basic programming in C Java or C++. It depends on what you choose because my cousin chose C++ and didn't regret his decision at all.
If you feel as if you need books outside the syllabus to understand the topics cohesively, then you can consult the following books for the respective topics:
| A.S. Vasudeva or Gaur and Gupta for Physics | Boylestad for basic Electronics |
| B.S. Grewal for Engineering Maths | B.L. Theraja for Electrical Engineering |
| N.D. Bhatt for Engineering, Drawing, and Graphics | The Complete Reference by Herbert Schild for Java |
These are good books on the topics, used by most freshers. However, you are requested to consult Google Books, and YouTube for easy comprehension of the subjects. To develop yourself from the first year itself, you can start taking up specialized subjects or projects as part of your niche enhancement process.
Is there any sports played in IIIT Bhopal?
Starting things off, first, let me tell you that IIIT Bhopal does not have its own campus or hostels. If you are looking for sports competitions, this will probably not be as abundant. There is however a sports period each week with all the sports facilities.
This started out as an initiative by students in lieu of a cricket tournament held amongst them. But, not much is related to sports even then.
The scene definitely has changed a little. Seniors organize fresher’s parties for the new batch, quiz competitions as well as gaming competitions.
In 2019, students had even asked to hold an inter IIIT sports in IIIT Allahabad. Many students bought sports kits to participate in this meet.
Frankly, you should know that the college is quite new. So it will take time for things to get better. As directors are assigned, things will start to change for the better. You will have to keep some patience.
