IIT Jodhpur runs an extensive on-campus hostel system on its 852-acre campus near Jodhpur, Rajasthan. First-year B.Tech students typically get double-occupancy rooms with single rooms from the second year by seniority. Annual hostel and mess fees for 2025-26 are heavily subsidised — typically ₹40,000-65,000 per academic year inclusive of mess. Mess service includes vegetarian, non-vegetarian and Jain options across multiple mess centres with student-elected mess secretaries; menus combine North Indian, Rajasthani and limited Continental rotations. Wi-Fi, hot-water geysers, gymnasium access, study lounges, common rooms with TV, washing machines and CCTV-monitored entries are standard. The Jodhpur weather is hot in summer (40-45°C April-June) and mild in winter (5-15°C December-February); the desert climate requires hydration discipline in summer. The campus is approximately 24 km from Jodhpur city centre. Bring own bedding, padlock, bucket and toiletries.
