Overall mess food is good but it depends on hall some halls provide reall good quality of food specially girls hall but in some halls mess food in not so good. overall IIT KGP is pretty affordable in comparision to other institutes.

Admission

I chose IIT KGp over all the other colleges i applied for because of it's academic reputation, big campus placement opportunites and good infrastructure. i was getting a confirmed addmission in DU but they were not providing any hostel facilities and IITKGP provides really strong security without any restriction and gives equal opportunities for both boys and girls.

Faculty

5

The faculty to student ratio is 18:1 and the faculty memmbers are very much approachable offline as well as online. i can't name one faculty here as all are so good in their respective field but sometime they accelarate the course just to meet the deadline. The exam level is moderate to difficult with a total of 4 exams per year and if you have attended all the lectures and have done revision then it's quite easy to score good.

Night Life

5

As the campus is Located very far from the city you are not going to find anything intresting outside but all the required facilities are available inside the campus, there is no restriction reagrding times both for boys and girls. Library remains open from 8AM to 11:55PM everyday and during exams it operates 24/7. Night canteens are available in almost every halls.

Placement Experience:

IITs are known for their placements, and this is exactly where they shine as compared to other colleges. From 7th semester onwards, the placements begin and is conducted by the CDC (Career development centre) in two phases. The highest package was around 2.5 Cr, with the average being around 22 lpa. Top recruiting companies include Google, Microsoft, Optiver, other HFTs which accounted for most of the highest packages offered. Around 75% of the students got placed during the 2025-2026 placement season.

Course Curriculum Overview:

-> CSE is the main stream because under this, other courses like Cybersecurity can be learned as extra courses, while still learning things that are very important like DSA and DAA. -> Everything is taught slightly fast and students have to keep up everyday. Even one class missed will be heavy on studying. -> The mic quality in some classes are bad and should be improved. It's impossible to understand what the teachers says when using them. -> Usually term exams start one month after the start of a semester, with the Semester exam being held 3 months later.
