Dislikes
- Professors are very knowledgeable people but don't know how to teach so majority of things are learnt online here by the students.

- Hostel food is below average than what you expect.
Course Curriculum Overview
I saw enormous opportunities in geology.This course is not available in many colleges so many jobs are vacant in India .The curriculum is quite logical and helps us to make our way into real world jobs .We can even go for higher studies in this field .I think admitting teachers based on their teaching skills is very important no matter how much knowledgeable that person is.The tests are quite frequent so we have to be ready with the syllabus taught in the classes.
Internships Opportunities
Google , Accenture ,Microsoft ,etc many other companies come for placements .Internships are done in the 3rd year .A semester is dedicated for internships .Internship with upto 1Lakh per month is provided by the college .
Placement Experience
Internship opportunities starts here from 3rd year .People get exposure as to how working in real field looks like.Placements are quite good.Average salary is around 15 LPA.Median is about 17 LPA.Highest was 36 LPA . Around 40 percent were only placed.I plan to getting placed in one the top core company.
Fees and Financial Aid
Fees per year is around 3.1Lakh .For general category,tution fee is around 1 lakh per semester.Caution fee is 4k.Admission fee is 20k .Registration fee is 10k.My friend from ST category has paid 35 k in total.
Campus Life
Our annual fest is spring fest .Kshitij is our technical fest.Kshitij is around 20th January .We have technology students Gymkhana for extra curricular activities .All sports except cricket and football are available here.
Hostel Facilities
Hostel rooms are quite spacious but not well maintained.It is quite old hostel .Mess food is below average .People who are veg are not given as much priority as non veg.Registration for halls are done online .
Admission
I applied in josaa.I got IIT bhu pharmaceutical engineering till round 4.I chose IIT kgp because of enormous opportunities here and vast alumni network.I wanted IIT Bombay but my rank was not so good .IIT kgp accepts admission through JEE advanced .Eligibility criteria for jee advanced is getting 75 percent in 12th boards and cutoff for jee mains .
Faculty
Faculty to student ratio is around 1:12.Faculty are quite understanding and help as much as they can.I liked Sujoy Ghosh sir ,he teaches minerology .He makes slides which are quite interesting and engages us into connecting several facts into a concept.I didn't like ravikant vadlamani ,he is just trying to impose the points which doesn't make sense .We have mid sems and end sems and tests before each .Tests are quite easy but midsems are moderate.Course is quite relevant as it also helps in bringing us internship opportunities.
