IIT Patna's Real Analysis


Course Curriculum Overview

I would rate the course curriculum as mid In first year it will be same as what IIT system follows but from second year it gets quite interesting due to the independency of being a Gen-2 IIT. It's an advantage and also the BTech MnC branch in my case, particularly this was one of the bigger reasons why I chose this college, it's actually really good and the course structure competes with CS in my case. Curriculum focuses a lot on practical hours and applications and that is the reason why it gets hectic a lot but it is worth it in the end. Course curriculum could definitely be improved but its not easy as almost all IITs follows the same "common" syllabus for first year. Only private colleges use a specific branchwise course from 1st year so its hard. Their are 2 exams in one semester - Mid sem and End sem. Difficulty, I would say its hard because of absolute grading from this year, but these 2 exams only hold at max 70% weightage the rest is through quiz. Also depends on professor.

Internships Opportunities

Many companies come to college for internships including Google, Microsoft, Atlassian, Goldman sachs etc. for tech and Unilever etc. for core They hire about 8-10 interns each from college. In 3rd year internship is necessary as its a part of the course so you have to do it anyways. The stipend is pretty good and goes upto 2.4 lakh even. Projects are also necessary in 4th year itself so newer course curriculum covers almost everything thats crucial.

Placement Experience

Students become eligible for placement after semester 7. The data for 2023-2024 is not here so here is the data for 2022-2023. Many companies including some MAANG - Microsoft, Amazon, Google comes to the campus. Some other companies including Atlassian, Sprinklr,Goldman sachs, Morgan stanley are regularly hiring companies. Majority of these big companies mentioned here, almost each of them hire 10+ interns every year. Last year the highest package was 1.37 Crore and 6 people had CTCs >1crore. Average package was 15.73 LPA overall including all branches. While CS average package was 35.57 LPA and Electrical had 24.85LPA as average. 58% was overall placements including all branches and branchwise it varies - 98.6% for CS, 83.6% for Electrical etc. My plan after getting the degree is for doing a job or who knows maybe pursue higher studies further.

Fees and Financial Aid

The year wise fees I am paying (atleast for this year) is 83170+44032 (1st and 2nd semester) so total 127202 per year However Normally the fees is 327202 per year I have to pay 127202 because 1 lakh per semester gets deducted due to me belonging to Most economically backward students category (Annual income is less than 1 lakh). The other batchmates who do not belong to this category have to pay 327202 per year (which will be lesser in further years as in first year caution money and other refundable fees are paid, however we aren't informed about it anymore than this)

Campus Life

There are 4-5 major fests in IIT Patna. First one is Fresher's party which usually happens in august or september. Known as nebula. (accessible to 1st years) Then Infinito which happens in October and is the sports fest of college.(It includes online games too) Another one is TedX which happens in september usually. Another fest is Celesta which happens in October or november too which is the tech fest of IIT Patna. Lastly but not the least, the biggest fest - Anwesha which happens in january or february. There are tons of books in the central library available. You will get almost every sort of book in the library and there is tenure of 45 days to issue it without a single penny for us. There are journals, thesis and phd papers available there too. Sports activities are aptly available you'll get so many sports to play either in gymkhana or in sports complex (including squash, TT etc). Gymkhana is the student body here which handles everything and clubs are just next level here.

Hostel Facilities

Hostel facilities are decent compared to Gen-1 IITs its better. You get a room in triple sharing in 1st yr but its very spacious enough to accomodate them. You get three desks and three chairs alongwith 2 cupboard with 2 separate divisions each so 4 cupboards. In hostel you will get water coolers on each floor (2) and washing machines are available on 3/7 floors totalling to about 8 washing machines (4 only work). Meal quality is okayish, this is something which isnt really good here, you would need to adjust with the food quality after coming to IITs and it becomes part of process. Menu is diverse though and almost all states dishes are present. The menu is pre-determined by mess committee (students need to give interview and they get selected). The student body is very strong and every representative has to go through some interviews or evaluation to reach there. (It's competitive) Registration process is quite easy and hostel is very very affordable (less than 2K per month).

Faculty

I'm in first year right now and in first year all branches have common courses so I can speak for that the faculty to student ratio is something around 250:1 approx (each CLH room's average] so the ratio is like this. However, if TAs (PHD students) or tutorials are asked about then the Faculty to student ratio in tutorials or labs would be something around 20:1. It is really easy to approach faculty you can directly ask them ques. before or after class, or you can just mail them at outlook. I have the liked the engineer. mechanics faculty Rishi sir and SunilKS sir both are really great in their subjects and have good academic backgrounds for example Rishi Raj sir have doctorate from MIT and Btech from IIT Guwahati and almost every faculty are from IITs (90% faculties). When it comes to faculty I didn't like it could be a CS professor we have named Arijit. There're Mid semester exams and end semester examinations including quizzes so 4 exams approx. They're and approx 7% fail yearly ig.

Admission

I chose this college due to its Coding culture which is top tier here. IIT Patna goes to ICPC every year (atleast since these last 3-4 years) which even some Gen 1 IITs don't and it ranks in top 10 in Inter IIT Tech Fest (since last 4-5 years) atleast ranking above Madras even last year. The coding culture will be visible when we come here because even a metallurgy guy may be coding and doing CP too. Other than CP, ML and Dev, all sorts of people with expertise in different fields you may find. The reason why it had better placements than some Gen 1 IITs is because of this coding culture. I wanted to go to University of Edinburgh and got offer too but It was not financially viable for me to choose so I came here. For coming to IIT Patna you need to get a good rank in JEE Advanced (rank depends on branch and category etc.). There are BTech and BS courses for which you can get admission and majority come through this. BSc course exists but its infamous and hated by all (us-BTech/BS)

Admission:

I chose this college due to its Coding culture which is top tier here. IIT Patna goes to ICPC every year (atleast since these last 3-4 years) which even some Gen 1 IITs don't and it ranks in top 10 in Inter IIT Tech Fest (since last 4-5 years) atleast ranking above Madras even last year. The coding culture will be visible when we come here because even a metallurgy guy may be coding and doing CP too. Other than CP, ML and Dev, all sorts of people with expertise in different fields you may find. The reason why it had better placements than some Gen 1 IITs is because of this coding culture. I wanted to go to University of Edinburgh and got offer too but It was not financially viable for me to choose so I came here. For coming to IIT Patna you need to get a good rank in JEE Advanced (rank depends on branch and category etc.). There are BTech and BS courses for which you can get admission and majority come through this. BSc course exists but its infamous and hated by all (us-BTech/BS)

IIT Patna: 25 Answered Questions

Which one is better for CSE: IIT Patna, IIT Mandi, IIT Jodhpur, IIT Bhubaneswar or IIT(ISM), Dhanbad?

Sabeer Chalana
Kalyan SahuLives in Bhubaneshwar

I am a CSE student at IIT Patna and I will try to justify why choosing IIT Patna for your

CSE is a good decision. Don’t base your choice on how old an institution is. 

All the new IITs like IIT Patna or IIT Jodhpur are doing exceptionally well, some are even competing against the old IITs. IIT Patna has a great campus and it has achieved tremendous success in a short span of time. 

CSE department has a learned and supportive faculty and great seniors. The teams have always performed exceptionally well in the ACM-ICPC and have even made it to the world finals. A good number of students clear the  GSoC( Google Summer of Code). 

NJACK club organizes tutorial classes and workshops on Web development, App development, Android, etc. It also organizes competitions like Capture the Flag, NWoC-an open source coding event, and other competitions throughout the year.

Other interdisciplinary teams which you can join are ROBOCON, Supra BAJA, HPVC etc. 

CSE alums at IIT Patna have made successful startups and others are working in good positions at top MNCs. Overall, the coding culture over here is excellent.

The placements for the CSE department are quite impressive. For 2023 placements, the highest package stood at INR 82.05 LPA. The average package stood at INR 35.57 LPA and the median package stood at INR 32.85 LPA. 98.65% of students from the CSE branch were placed.

In the end, whether you choose IIT Jodhpur, IIT Mandi, IIT Patna, or any other institution, the choice should be based on your personal preference. However, I would suggest you choose IIT Patna CSE as I am quite satisfied with my choice.

Which is better: a CSE at new IITs like Patna, Indore or a CSE at DTU?

Akriti Banerjeelives in New Delhi

My friend was in a similar dilemma last year and chose DTU over IIT Patna. She considers new IITs overhyped and not at par with the IIT standards. Running after the IIT tag is not logical and you should look at the bigger picture. Anaise your career prospects and see if other options fit your prospects or not. 

DTU is a great option for CSE considering the excellent exposure and opportunities you will get in Delhi, the capital. The salary packages, the companies, and the profiles offered at DTU are similar to the new IITs if not better. 

To make things simpler, here are a few pros and cons of going for a new IIT instead of DTU

Pros:

  • The most coveted IIT tag name, helps you get admission to foreign universities and also helps you in off-campus job hunt.
  • IITs have better research opportunities 
  • The academic structure and pedagogy are world-class at IITs

Cons:

  • Being in Delhi will groom your overall personality in addition to excellent professional opportunities and exposure. 
  • The new IITs fail to give a vibrant and dynamic college life and are still struggling with infrastructure and basics. DTU, being old, has a vibrant culture with all sorts of fests, cultural and tech activities.
  • Delhi is the hub of coaching institutes for higher education. 
  • DTU has a better brand name established by its successful alumni spread across the globe. 

Ultimately it’s your choice whether you want a better campus life or the IIT tag.

IIT Warangal is a much older institution, however, IIT Patna offers some very interesting clubs and societies in various areas. Other than NJAC, it offers technical societies like AI-NLP-ML Group, DSC and OWASP. This makes for a healthy coding environment.

 

Other than that, its highest and average placement packages are also better than the other two institutions. IIT Patna carries the prestigious ‘IIT’ tag which is beneficial when applying for higher studies abroad. Moreover, IIT Mandi has a beautiful but remote location in the mountains. Whereas, Patna city offers better connectivity.

 

Because of all these reasons, IIT Patna is a better choice than IIT Mandi and NIT Warangal.

Are the new IITs such as IIT Patna good for a secure future?

Sushmita RajputLives in Patna

Yes, the new IITs like Goa, Patna, etc provide good future prospects. However, you would like to consider these points.

  • Don’t go for the new IITs that don't operate from their permanent campuses as infrastructure and facilities play an important role in enhancing your academic environment.
  • You will face lesser competition in the new IITs during placements and the companies visiting are almost similar to the old IITs. Thus new IITs increase your chances of making it into a good company.
  • Old IITs enjoy a good prestige and thus have better ties with foreign universities thus making it easy to get LORs to do foreign internships or higher studies. 
  • Old IITs are better for girls because the rules in new IITs are not well established and are in the developing stage so girls usually face a lot of restrictions here.

Now it is up to you to decide

Which is better, a PhD at Jadavpur University or at IIT Patna?

Arnav RoyLives in Kolkata, West Bengal, India

My friend had options of Ph.D. from JU, IIEST as well as IIT Patna and still chose IIT Patna. She claimed that IIT Patna had a better research culture and the professors get work published in very good journals, A/A* conferences, etc. The professors motivate the students for the same and this aspect attracted him the most. However, your personal preferences also come to play here. So consider the following points

  • If you want to complete your Ph.D. quickly, JU will serve you better. 
  • If you are ready to commit yourself to hard work and increase your publications gradually with your knowledge and time
  • IIT Patna students get 2.5lacs per student to go to any conference at a tenure of 5 years.
  • If you want to enjoy college life in addition to research work then JU is better. The college ambiance is great with a dynamic city life. 

Choose IIT Patna for its research culture and not the IIT tag.

  • RnA or Robotics and Aviation Club of IIT Patna. It is a newly formed club that focuses on drones, MAVs (Micro air Vehicles), and aviation robotics.
  •  NJACK is the Computer Science Club of IIT PATNA. Other technical clubs/societies at IIT Patna include: AI-NLP-ML Group, DSC and OWASP. 
 

Thus, because of its good placements and a plethora of clubs/societies, I would recommend you to choose CSE at IIT Patna over Mathematics and Computing at IIT Guwahati.

Which is better IIT Patna, IIT Gandhinagar or NIT Allahabad for CSE?

Samir DasguptaStudied Computer Science at Indian Institute of Technology, Patna

IIT Patna's CSE department is known for its exceptional performance and achievements. Here are some highlights that showcase the department's excellence:

  • Supportive faculty: In general, faculty members in IITs/NITs are not always supportive or enthusiastic about teaching. However, in IIT Patna's CSE department, most of the professors are very chill and supportive.
  • Placement: The placement record of IIT Patna's CSE department is remarkable. Students with a CPI greater than 7 have a 100% placement rate. The average package offered is around 15 LPA, and the highest goes up to 50 LPA (last year's data). Students like Ashutosh Agarwal have even received a package of 1.8 crores from Google.
  • Achievements: IIT Patna has achieved remarkable heights in a short span of time. Five students from the first year successfully cleared Google Summer of Code (GSoC) this year. Recently, the ACM-ICPC, a world-level coding competition, was conducted in China, and IIT Patna stood second (among Kolkata zone) and 56th worldwide. IIT Patna was the only "new" IIT to qualify for the World Finals.
  • Coding culture: The coding culture in IIT Patna's CSE department is very exciting compared to similar IITs. Students are encouraged to participate in coding competitions and hackathons.

In conclusion, IIT Patna's CSE department has made a name for itself through its exceptional faculty, placement record, achievements, and coding culture.

How does MTech mechatronics at IIT Patna compare to the same at NIT Surathkal?

Sakshi Gupta
Sushmita RajputLives in Patna

The Mechatronics branch in itself is not very developed in India irrespective of whichever institute offers it. IIT Patna is a new IIT and lacks the necessary resources and infrastructure while NIT Surathkal has a very challenging curriculum for MTech Mechatronics. The breakdown is 60% Mechanical and 40% Electronics. Students from other domains find it difficult to cope with the rigorous curriculum.

Although the faculty pool comprises good professors, the placement scenario is just average. So try looking for other options or go for IIT Patna instead.

What is lacking in the newer IITs (Patna, Indore, Jodhpur, etc.) that cause them to become less preferred by students?

Ritvik sainiStudent At IIT Patna

The newer Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) like Patna, Indore, and Jodhpur are generally less preferred by students compared to the older, more established IITs due to the following reasons:

  1. Brand recognition: The older IITs have a strong reputation and are more widely recognized, unlike the new IITs.
  2. Alumni network: Older IITs have a strong alumni network that can provide better placement opportunities and industry connections. This is lacking a bit in the new IITs.
  3. Infrastructure: Newer IITs may still be developing their infrastructure, including laboratories, research facilities, and campus amenities.
  4. Research opportunities: Older IITs typically have more research collaborations, funding, and ongoing projects, providing better research opportunities for students.
  5. Industry partnerships: Established IITs often have stronger ties with industries, leading to better internship and placement opportunities.
  6. Placement records: The track record of placements and average salary packages are stronger for the older IITs.

Here is the comparison of the new IITs with an older one (IIT Madras):
