IIT Bombay Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

Placements are satisfactory. 6th sem onwards students go for placements. There are over 100 200 companies and more than thousand of offers. Almost 90% students get placed and pthers go for highe studies.

Campus placements in iitb is very satisfactory. There are a lot of national and international companies that come for placement and give very nice packages. Highest packages go upto 4crores but if a student is not serious then iitb doesnt guarantee placements.

The courses are not always relevant to the current feildd interest but essential, curiosity will be entertained but outside the classrooms. The courses prepare you well for the real world applications but you have to think yourselves about the concepts. The courses are not how i imagined it to be like rather very mathematical. Could be made more based on intuition. Exam timings seems very comfortable if you are studying lol.

The placement starts in December for the final year students. Every time almost 85 percent gets placed. But the recession affected this year's placement.this time it might be 65percent placed. Companies ranging from MNCs to startups come here. There are 165+ companies visited till now. There are many profiles of jobs they have offered with the top tier being SWE, ML, consultancy, etc.

Curriculum here is good. There are 2-3 core courses every semester and other electives can be chosen from 2nd year. The sequence of core courses for engineering physics is well defined moving from classical to quantum. Mostly 2-3 classes per week per course. Exams are mostly midsem endsem and quizzes in between.

The placements at IIT Bombay are generally good. There are companies that come specifically to this college only in all of India (they dont even go to other IITs). The packages that most people get range from 15-20lacs. There are higher packages also exceeding 1cr, but only very few students get them . Likewise there are also very low paying jobs offered (lowest i know being aroung 6lacs) but that also is limited to few students. Additionally you get Internships also at many good companies paying you large amounts (some beiing as high as around 6lacs per month). The same pattern is reflecetd here as in placements as in most people get somewher aroung 1-1.5lacs per month. (What I mean by most here is most good packages, the number is students getting them might be around 30%% of total students)

Campus placements are for final year students, process starts after the beginning of 7th semester. Companies started to take tests, then shortlisted students will give interviews after the end of 7th semester in december month. Many big companies like Google, Microsoft, Apple, Bain and Co., McKinsey, Flow Traders, HUL, etc comes to hire. Average salary per annum lies around 15-20 LPA, while the highest can go upto 2Cr (internation offers) and lowest can lie around 6-7 LPA. Every year, around 75-80% students gets placed from campus placements.

Per sem there are two quizs and one mid sem and end sem. We will scores based on relative grading. You need to study to compete with classmates not with marks. Actually it is hard to pass but you can say relative grading nice if you study well.

Students are allowed to sit for placement at the end of their 7 semester. We have an excellent placement cell managing this entire process. The highest package was 3.67 crore, internationally, and 1.68 crore domestically. Also, the average placement was 21.82 lacs per annum. Personally, I'm interested in Scientific Research in Physics and is planning to pursue my PhD in Theoretical High Energy Physics from MIT, United States.

Coming to placements, it is something IIT's are know for. We have a separate Placement cell which always get it work done. 7 th sem students are eligible for placement. Many student also get PPO and almost 300 PPO were offered this year. IF I give you rough idea 1900 job offer's were made and company visited were almost 350. Highest package offered was 3.67 crore per annum ( internationally) and average package for this year was around 21 lpa. 83% students were placed during this placement session. My plans after getting degree is startup , i know my department is research oriented but as we are mathematically strong it give us a little edge in placement as compared to other branches and usually EP students get internship in foreign countries which would help me in networking for my startup.
