Remarks

Largest IITin india with great labs and research facility. The agricultural department is bigger than the whole IIT Delhi itself. That gives an idea about the departments in our college. The only bad aspect is the closest city is Kolkata (225 km).

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

Faculties are great. Most of them are IIT alumni and have completed their PhDs from universities like the University of California and other great universities. Exams are not that hard to pass if you really concentrate on the classes.

Internships Opportunities

4

Almost all the companies that come for placements visit for on-campus internships. The stipend is not that great but its maximum around 40 LPA and minimum can be around 12k pa. You can also apply for off-campus internships but its compulsory to do 2 on-campus internships.

Placement Experience

4.5

If you have a 4 yr course placements start from the end of 3rd year and for 5 yr at the end of 4th year. Highest package is around 2 crores per annum and the average packaged varies for different departments but it's around 25-30 LPA.

Fees and Financial Aid

Fees are definitely too much a little less than 3 lacs per year. But the good thing is if your family income is less than 5 lac you get a 2/3rd of tution fees waiver and if its less than 1/3rd its completely waived off and for less than 9 lacs its 1/3rd waiver. And there are several scholarships based on your merit like means cum merit scholarship etc.

Campus Life

5

Campus life is awesome. It's covered over 2200 acres of lands. Fests and events make it an even more memorable place to be. Our library is one of the biggest libraries in Asia and it's filled with books from different genres. Sports and other curricular activities you have different societies clubs and cells and great stadiums to play in.

Hostel Facilities

4.5

You have a bed a cupboard and a study table some rooms have 2 occupancies some have 3. If you are MTech or PhD students you may also get 1 occupancy rooms. Food is okay somedays they make special dinner which is very hotel-like so its a good chance. Hostels are definitely very affordable.
