It is not a hidden fact that IIT Kharagpur has one of the biggest college campuses in India. It is larger than IIT Bombay, Delhi, and Kanpur combined together. In fact, the agriculture and food engineering department of IITKGP is bigger than IIT Delhi itself.

It has more than 20 departments offering a plethora of courses like Computer Science, Ocean Engineering and Naval Architecture, Aerospace Engineering, and Exploration geophysics.

Some major highlights of IIT Kharagpur's infrastructure and amenities are 

• Law School, Rajiv Gandhi School of Intellectual law
• A Management School, Vinod Gupta School of Management 
• Hospital, B.C.Roy Technology Hospital
• A medicine research center
• 3 helipads 
• 3 lakes
• Nehru Museum 
• Computer and Informatics Centre 
• The Tagore Open-Air theater 
• Gymkhana Lake 
• Own Hangar (Where Airplanes were kept during the world war) 
• A Bomb house (used during world war) 
• Prison cells where Nationalists were kept by the British
• The Lal Bahadur Shastri Hall of Residence, the largest hall in Asia that can accommodate around 1800 students

IITKGP is one of the most beautiful colleges in the country. One can visit the campus to really understand its uniqueness. Being the oldest and biggest, IIT Kharagpur is called the Mother of IITs.

In terms of academics and placements, Anna University is decent. The university has eight faculties and 30 departments. It offers UG, PG, and doctorate courses. It has collaborated with 37 international universities for student exchange programs. 

Anna University placements are good. Ashok Leyland, Accenture, Infosys, Wipro, etc. are among the major recruiters that take part in the campus placements. During the recent placement drive, students received an average CTC of around INR 7 LPA. While the highest CTC offered was INR 36 LPA. 

Unfortunately, IIIT Delhi's mess food is like any other typical mess food. I have friends in other IITs and I heard from them that their mess food is better. The mess scenes are very chaotic, especially during the day. 

There are frequent menu changes but only for the show. No new dishes are added and only the order or serving is changed. They even interchange lunch and dinner and claim this act as updating the menu. The mess app doesn't improve the food quality.

The food served is of substandard quality and the majority of students tend to order their food online. So, be prepared to be disappointed by the IIITD Mess. 

Life at all the top B Schools in India for MBA aspirants is pretty much the same. It’s hectic and rigorous but highly knowledgeable. The B Schools offer an insight into the various angles of Management in a period of 2 years through excellently designed pedagogy and curriculum.

Coming to SPJIMR specifically, has a blend of a variety of features that sets it apart from other top B Schools. Some of these include Innovative pedagogy, Profile-based interview calls, ADMAP, DOCC, Abhyudaya, Global Fast Track, and Autumn placement structure. But the one aspect my answer will solely focus on is the amazing culture of SPJIMR which is like no other B School.

• Harmony: When it comes to student connectivity, SPJIMR really does steal the show. While many B Schools have witnessed cases wherein ragging and bringing down rivals is a common occurrence, SPJIMR refuses to adopt this culture. There is tremendous harmony among the students such that if someone was struck during a presentation, the whole class would try their level best to save him from embarrassment. Such small acts speak highly of the student connection which was observed even by many professors who had visited other B Schools too.
• Collaboration: The much-heated events in a B School are Corporate Competitions that are said to bring out the worst side of people. Other B Schools have competitions where competitors are treated as rivals and there is tough competition. Interestingly enough, SPJIMR has a very different outlook on the same. SPJIMR students collaborate with each other while preparing for these competitions. Basically, students help out their batchmates before themselves, and this results in a beautiful bond between them.
• Placement Committee: It is very common for a placement committee to be rude toppers who are always causing constant wars between the students. They become placeCom mainly for upgrading their CV. But SPJIMR Placement Committee is yet again very different in the sense that its sole purpose is to get its students the best placements. They conduct elaborate discussions to formulate training plans for the students to face the tough placements. They are friendly yet stern. 

I know many may criticize me for jotting such minor points in reference to campus life at SPJIMR. But in my opinion, the culture of an Institute is a very important parameter as it determines what kind of relationships you will have with your peers and the kind of friends you will have for a lifetime. You get to have the best alumni network as a cherry on top.

I have a friend who graduated from Central University of Rajasthan. His experience at the institute has been good. 

• Classes are regular at the institute. The professors are well-experienced. The university follows a semester system.
• The campus is a great place to hang out with your friends. My friend used to hang out at a place called thadi. Food is available till 10 at night. You can also visit nearby dhabas or restaurants. Girls are allowed to be out till 10. There are two stadiums where you can watch kids play. 
• Some days there can be problems regarding food and water. But overall it’s manageable. There is one non-veg counter, one canteen, one chai shop, one corporate store, and two dairy parlors on campus. 
• Winters are cold and summers are too hot. Students usually stay on campus except for vacations. 

Overall, you will have a good experience on campus.
