Course Curriculum Overview
I have chosen the BS course Economics at IIT Kgp because IIT Kgp is my second good economics course at IIT's. The ratio of professors and students is 1:60. All the professors are highly qualified in the course and are researchers in many regions which can be viewed from the IIT KGP website. There are methods that are great and personal interactions give a better experience too. There are mid sems about 6-7 weeks after the beginning of the semester with 1 or 2 class tests accordingly. and end sems about 4 months. There are a few difficult courses but could be passed after a little hard work. Individual studies and interaction with the professor help.
Internships Opportunities
The internship offers will be from 3rd years of B.Tech and 4th years of M.tech and integrated courses of B.Sc&M.Sc too.The offers are from many MNC's.The students shall refer to few consultancies like Associate Consultant Intership AT Bain&company,etc.And many companies will be offering to the students.

There are about 20 hostel accomodated for students.In few halls rooms will be allocated to more than 1 and few have single allocations.As IIT Kgp is an old campus many hostels are old but all of them are huge.It will be nice to have a large number of students staying together. Every hall has playground for badminton and few have indoor games and few have basketball ground and few have mini football grounds and many has all combined.The food is good , we get food varieties from South India and North India too.Will be allocated after getting admission in IIT Kgp.A couple of forms are sufficient to get into these halls.
