Remarks
JEE mains was conducted followed by JEE Advanced and l got a good rank in the advanced and then proceeded with counseling which was of 6 rounds. I finally got Chemical Engg. in IIT Roorkee which is a 4-year B. Tech. Course. I also got reservation benefits as l belong to the OBC category and got this college at a category rank of 5200.
Course Curriculum Overview
I chose this course because of my interest in Chemistry but after the first class, it's more of Physics and Maths rather than Chemistry. Faculty are qualified and knowledgeable but not that interactive. We mostly go for YouTube videos for our academics because it's so difficult to get into the flow of lectures. Our first semester lasts just for 3 months, classes started on 27th Oct and we had Mid Term Exams from 9th to 13th Dec and now we are having End Term from 1st to 8th Feb.
Placement Experience
The placement is quite good. The highest package from our course was 36 lakhs, the average was 13 lakhs and the lowest was 8 lakhs. This offer was for those who went for core placements. Students who opted for tech got the highest package of 78 lakhs.
Fees and Financial Aid
The fee is high indeed but if your income is less than 5 lakhs you get a fee waiver and you just have to pay one-third of the tuition fee. Also, if your family income is less than 1 lakh you get a full waiver I.e., you don't have to pay any tuition fee.
Campus Life
Cognizance, Shristi, and Thodi are some of the fests of IIT Roorkee. There any many clubs which you can join depending on your interest Hacking clubs, literary clubs, fine arts, robotics, everything is here. IlT-R has a huge library with a vast collection of books.
Other Applied Colleges
Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology - [IIEST] Shibpur | Bachelor of Technology [B.Tech] (Computer Science and Engineering)
I found IIT Roorkee as a better option
