What Students Say

Likes

The campus is very beautiful and big, the alumni network here is very strong the peers are very good

Dislikes

The Exams structure, some unnecessary subjects

Course Curriculum Overview

I just chose the course because of The college, the course is very hectic and the requires maximum efforts from the student side, There are unnecessary assignments and homeworks, also the attandance requirement is also very high

Class Size: 150Course Fees: INR 200000 per year

Placement Experience

After completing 7th semester students are eligible to sit in campus placements. Almost every tech giant, product based, service based companies do visit our campus with Some international offers in crores and average package of 20 lakhs.But since 2 years the placements have been not up to the mark due to recession

Fees and Financial Aid

Right now I just completed my 3rd year and doing an remote internship that I received off campus but the placement team invites the companies for internships.There are several scholarships for students like MCM for students whose family income is less than 2lakhs

Campus Life

There are three fests of IIT Kanpur named Udghosh, Techkriti and Antaragini which are sports, tech and cultural fests respectively conducted by students.There are many clubs and societies here in IIT K and almost every student is associated with some club and society holding position of responsibility and having a good social time

Hostel Facilities

The rooms are small but enough for single occupancy and have facilities of a bed, cupboard, fan and a study table along with a mirror. Students can purchase other stuffs for rooms. The mess food is average in some hostels

Hostel Fee: INR 20000 per year

Admission

Everyone knows that For admission in IITs we have to crack Jee Advanced which I cracked and you have to score atleast under 3000 rank to get admission in top 5 IITs. As it is a government exam so it doesn't have reserved seats for reserve classes

Faculty

2.5

Some professors are good in teaching but some are not, there main Motive is to just complete the syllabus and take exams, they often fail students repeatedly and the exams they take is also very tough and challenging

IITK From Sparsh's Perspective

I choose this college becouse of its flexible acdemic structure and its great Alum connections. Also this is the best college i am getting according to my rank and my interest in mathematics. I have Applied for IIT delhi in electronics. IIT Delhi is also a great college but when it comes to academic focus IIT delhi lacks there. Also there faculty administratation is so strict. if a student wants to start something or he/she has a new iniative for the college , he/she will face hard time. So I couldn't make it to IIT Roper CSE branch because my jee adance rank is not that great for the Roper' Computer science. So the Admission process here at IITK is not difficult. You just the originaly document which you have submitted in your josa counselling portal and you need to verify it once here usually a couple opf hours work. The cut-off for IITK varies-from branch to branch. For example the CSE of IITk open from Jee advanced general rank of 115 to 250....Read More

I chose IIT Kanpur over othe rcooleges because of its academic reputation, research opportunities and strong alumini network. I was also able to get seats in other IITs but I preferred IIT Kanpur due to its legacy . I didn't face rejections, but did not opt for some colleges even after qualifying due to lower research output, weaker placement stats. Admission process for B.Tech at IITK is through JEE Advanced exam, after qualifying JEE Mains. You also neend to satisfy cutoff for branches. Admissions are handled by JoSAA Counselling....Read More
