Entrance Preview

My IIT JEE AlR was 9166 and AIEEE AIR was 6288 in year 2010. But I opted IIT Kharagpur because it was near to my native place, Jamshedpur and obviously anyone would prefer IIT rather then any other college. My score was 191 in IITJEE entrance exam.

Course Curriculum Overview

4

My course contents were great. It contained a lot of learning topics from variable stream of common learning that we see around in our life. It covered a great deal of courses such that one could opt for software profile job to consultant job as well as banking sector jobs.

Internships Opportunities

I did my internship at TATA Steel, Jamshedpur. It was non funded but I wanted to work at TATA Steel so I didn't searched for any other internship programs. Generally stipend is offered at TATA steel which is around Rs.10,000/pm unfortunately it doesn't offer paid internships and jobs to our department that year.

Placement Experience

3.5

Placement opportunities is great at IIT Kharagpur. Although I did't received a good placement but my batch mates managed good placement offers. Many of them had been offered abroad jobs.

College Events

4

ILLU- Short for Illumination is a great event at IIT Kharagpur during Diwali festival. It seems like a festival itself as more than 5000 students participate in it and a lot of man hours and money is invested in this event. There is a competition among different residence halls.

Fees and Financial Aid

I was offered Merit Cum Means scholarship at IIT Kharagpur. It was fifty percent of my tuition fees.

Alumni/Alumna

I was never in connection with any of my seniors which was a reason for my failure to get proper guidance through placement season. The senior students are very supportive at IIT Kharagpur.

Faculty

4

Faculties are great at my college. They always encouraged us to study and work hard. Although there were differences between me and the faculty's opinions but they always proved to be correct at the end.

Placement Experience:

Campus Placements starts after 6th semester and majorily mass recruiters visit the campus and there are more opportunities for the cor branchs as compared to the non core because of the presence of many industries in the nearby areas.For this year, 12lpa is the highest placement in Commvault but the total placement is only around 50-60%, so my plan is to try getting off campus opportunities by the end of my 3rd year

Course Curriculum Overview:

Personally i opted for electrical and electronics instead of the branch of my choice is because my scores were not enough to secure a seat in CSE. But EEE is pretty cool as well for those willing to grow in this branch. Our curriculum exposes us to the rapidly growing sectors in the industry and educates us of all we need to know about the course in depth. If you want to continue ahead in a research field, this Institute is the most supportive. The exam questions are also relevant enough and considering we only need to actually stress over end semesters, its fair enough per semester. It would be better if our professors removed the attendance criteria rest im fine with everything else
