Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

The course I got enrolled in is Bs in mathematics and computing which is quite a good and secured one . The curriculum mostly focused on the topic which are in high demand and will help us in future semesters and for placements. This course mostly targets on trading , finance , hfts area . Since , it's a bs course , more mathematics is being involved in this course . I think that a little bit more computing can be the part to be focused on in upcoming years . Class test are dependent on the professors themselves. Other than that , There are midsems and endsems in each semester

Internships Opportunities

5

A student is given full opportunity to apply for internships in the college itself . But since being a good college , we don't find any difficulty getting an internship outside the college . The companies include nearly all the companies . The stipend might range between 15000 to 5 lakhs .

Placement Experience

5

As far as I know , students get eligible for placements roughly around semester 5 . Almost all the big companies visits iit kgp campus and no. Of offers made are obviously greater than the number of students . The highest package is around 2.78 crore pa and the average is around 30.53 lpa . The placement percentage would lie roughly between 80-90% . My plan is not fixed yet after getting degree

Fees and Financial Aid

So , the year wise fee I paid is around 3,12,000 inr . The tuition fees is 1,00,000 inr . Caution fee is 12000 inr . Registration fee is 400 inr . Hostel Admission fee is 1000 inr and the other lab fees and compulsory charges are not being briefed to us but I can say that they are quite minimal and affordable. The most common scholarships offered are MCM , inspire and reliance scholarships . Since , I know more about the inspire scholarship. It is given to those who are enrolled in BS course and have their JEE advanced AIR less than 10,000. They are being rewarded 60,000 per year + 20,000 on researchAll the students who have they family annual income greater than 5 lakhs have to pay the same fees as mentioned above . For annual income roughy between 2 lakhs to 5 lakhs , the students have to pay 33% of the total fees and for students having annual income below 2 lakhs or they belong to sc or st category , they are being provided with free tution fees on there whole 4-5 year duration

Campus Life

5

The famous fest held here are shaurya, spring , tech fest . Shaurya fest is held roughy in end October. Spring fest is held in january. Tech fest schedule is not discussed yet . Iit kgp has the Asia largest library is terms of number of books . We don't face any problem regarding library or issuing books . They literally have al the types of books of all the authors . . Classrooms are full air conditioned . Some are big , some small , some circular and ome rectangular. Everyone is offered an extra academic activity for the first 2 years and anyone can enroll in any game they want by paying a 500 inr fee per semester. There are approximately 47 clubs here registered under technology Students Gymkhana. We nearly have all the socs and clubs including cultural, coding , robotics , adventure, counselling etc.

Hostel Facilities

3

The room that freshers or first year undergraduate students get is LAL BAHADUR SHASTRI. All rooms are spacious with triple sharing . The rooms include a bed , chair , table and a cupboard. The meal provided here is decent . But we all get bored by the same repeatition of the meals every week . The quality is like 3/10 . You don't have to do much about the registration process for hostel and affordabilty . It's quite simple and nothing to be worried about .

Admission

So , I had only given jee advance and I got two options in the counselling duration . One was iisc banglore and the other one was iit Kharagpur. Both of them were offering mathematics and computing course. I simply chose iit kgp because I either didn't have interest in the research part at iisc banglore and because i don't wanna miss the iit tag . The admission process is very simple under one platform , i.e josaa . The eligibilty depends on your rank and the course you are searching for . The overall admission procedure is quite simple if you are getting a college from josaa counselling otherwise the formalities of other college might be tedious .

Faculty

3.5

The faculty members are quite good . They have very deep knowledge and expertise of their respective subject . Some of them are helpful too . The faculty to students ratio is 1:20 . We are quite approachable to meet faculty members but it's rare for someone to go to department to meet them . I liked Swarup panda sir and pratima ma'am especially. The best faculty famous here is prof Pawan Kumar who secured 2 times air 2 in jee advanced . Personally , I don't like the ece prof. Here because of the way he explains . There are some class test which may be surprise tests which depends on the respective professors. Other than that , we have midsems and endsems in each semester. Getting a failed student is quite not common but it might have a 0.01 probability. The course structure here is very relevant since from this year onwards , we have our departmental courses from the first year itself .

Placement Experience:

Placements depends on your skills Usually there is a compulsory internship at the end of 3rd year If you didnt get it via college you should do it from outside but its compulsory And at the end of 4th year you get placement. Placemeng isnt 100% . If you have the skill you will get placed thats the criteria.many people say you are in IIT your life is sorted .but that aint the reality

Starting from Apple to Google and Microsoft too hired some of our senior but the number of the students get placed in those tech giant companies is very less but there are mass recruiters too like TCS infosys PW chaitanya education TATA steel BHARAT petroleum and many other companies the offers are made based upon the eligibility of the students and the packages are decided based on the skillset and experience of the students .

Course Curriculum Overview:

The university is MAKAUT so the curriculum is up to the mark. I liked Programming so I chose B.TECH in CSE. The curriculum is very basic in terms of practical world problem though they are building blocks, but you need to do the extra bit of work to qualify for the real world scenarios. I think more mandatory projects integrated with current set of skills would be a cherry on top. Exams are very frequent like every 3-4 months there is a semester exam and they are moderately difficult.
