Our college has a central library having lakhs of books which students can issue anytime. There is reading hall facility also in the library. The classrooms are equipped with smart boards and projectors. Sports life is also fun as almost all sports are present in our college. Also our college participates and wins in Inter IIT competition . Students Counselling Services is available for all students in our college. SCS is commonly known as Sakha which is always ready to help students, for their better mental well-being.

Hostel facility in our college is good. Every room has beds, study tables and chairs as per the number of students living in the room. Every hostel has its own mess and the quality of food given in the mess is also good. There are 2 sattvik mess also for pure vegetarian students. Hostel registration has to be done in each odd semester.

There are many factors that affected me to choose IIT BHU. One of them is placement. As per my rank I was not getting top IITs like Bombay, delhi or kanpur etc. but I was getting branches like mining in bhu and ism Dhanbad. Also I was getting ocean engineering in IIT Kharagpur and newer IITs also. But I was not interested in going to newer IITs or ocean engineering in IIT Kharagpur. So I had choice between IIT BHU and Dhanbad. I chose IIT BHU because it was closer to my home. My admission in the college was through josaa counselling in which i filled the preferred colleges along with courses. Partial fees of my first semester was taken in the counselling only and rest was taken after admission. Overall admission experience through josaa was good.

Facilities of our department are good. They are very approachable and ready to help students. The faculty to students ratio is around 1:10. In each semester there is an Endsem and a midsem. The mid semester exam is generally of 30 marks and end semester exam is of 70 marks. Rest 20 marks are for assignment or quiz. However the marking scheme depends on professors also. Maintaining 75% attendance is compulsory.

Nighlife is good but not very good. Cafeteria is present in our college. Also there are 2 gyms in our college. Hostel has rules regarding timings, specially for girls, due to security reasons. Famous hangout place in our college is Limbdi corner (LC) . Also, Vishwanath temple is present within the BHU campus, so students often go there also. Outside the campus there are ghats beside the river Ganga, which is also a very common place to hangout.
