IIT Madras: Reasons why consecutive 4 NIRF titles?

Likes

The academic excellence & research opportunities provided at this institute.
Lush green campus with beautiful wildlife living in symphony.
Good record of placements & internships.

Dislikes

Hostel infrastructure needs a lot of improvement.
Mess food is not up to the mark, specially when comes to North Indian diet.
The competitveness. Although there are highly bright students coming together at this place but not all of them are helpful towards you.

Placement Experience:

Placement percentage at IIT Madras is quite good. considering nation's premier institute, top MNCs & other companies come to hire bright students as their efficient employees. Students have to sit for placement in their pre-final semester. PPTs, written exams, and technical rounds happen before the phase-1 when companies come to interview the short-listed students. The student has to first register on the placement & internship portal to get registered for the placement process. According to the report released by the placement portal of IITM for the year 2022-23 no. of companies visited were 480 while the offers made were 1612. The highest package offered was 13163530, while the median stands at 1700000 per annum. considering both the phase-1 & phase-2 of placements around 65% of students were placed while many others opted for higher studies or research programs. My personal plans are to get a job with a decent package.

Environmental is the best u can find here because it is 700 acre campus maintaining a good ecosystem with the wildlife and human
Fest and programs makes in the campus moments most rememberable .the memories are undeniably unforgettable
Faculty is the best they are more like an family members they understand u easily and gives advices and helps u as an family

Dislikes

Attendance is 85 percentage one of the I most definitely disliked
8 AM classes 😴 another most mission impossible task to wake and attend
8 AM classes =4 another most mission impossible task to wake and attend

Course Curriculum Overview:

The first aspect for choosing is to be civil engineering course because it is easy and stressful to other courses in the other branches. The curriculum is packed and designed a way to encourage you to be more practical and helps ahead for the academic and professional career development They are outstanding in these things minor problems and discomfort can be rectified. The frequency of exams is 1.5 month / exam I think it's apt and good time according to the difficulty level and well planned curriculum.

Almost around 55% of students get placed and many people go for higher studies or go after chasing their passion or building their start ups. I wanted to work in the software industry after my graduation.

Placement Experience:

The students are eligible for the campus placements from the 7Th semester. Companies like Biogen, Genentech, and Novo Nordisk visit. As of now the placements are good for the biotechnology department. Incase the student did not get placed in campus, there so many chances that they can search for off campus placements.

IIT Madras: 3 Answered Questions

IIT Madras Vs IIT Bombay: Which campus is more beautiful?

Purnima IyerStudies at IIT Madras

Both IIT Madras and IIT Bombay for popular academic institutions in India, renowned for their academic and research excellence.

IIT Madras offers a natural and serene environment while IIT offers more modern infrastructures and architectures.
However, the beauty of the campus is dependent on your preference and other factors.
IIT Madras has a beautiful campus located in Chennai, it is spread across 25 hectares and is nestled between the Raj Bhavan campus and Guindy National Park.
The campus offers a serene atmosphere and lush greenery with iconic fractures like the Gajendra Circle and Saraswathi Auditorium.
The river Adyar flows alongside the campus of IIT Madras which enhances its natural charm.

What is your review of IIT Madras data science program?

NileshBS in Data Science from IIT Madras (Graduated 2023)

The online Data Science program at IIT Madras is a great opportunity for someone who can not attend regular college because of financial constraints, illness, or other reasons. The online BS in Data Science and Application allows students to gain knowledge of this field from one of the most reputed engineering colleges in India.

The online lectures are taught by experienced faculty members from IITM. What I found most interesting was the professors' distinct approach to teaching. The students are routinely assisted by committed and supportive staff.

IIT Madras has undertaken a unique approach to imparting their expertise in the highly demanded field of Data Science.

What are your thoughts on IIT Madras offering a bachelor's degree/diploma online?

Shraya HazraB.Tech Mechanical Engineering & Mathematics, Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati (2020)

It is a full-time degree or diploma and so it will have more value than online. But if we compare IIT Madras’ online degree or diploma with any other college’s then it is better.

The duration of the course is 3 years. The mode of training is online, the lectures are mostly recorded and partly live sessions.

Whether the course will be good or not that depends on what subject you are planning to pursue. If you opt for a subject related to technology, then it is not a good option. This is because technology cannot be learned through books or audiovisual. It requires you to be present in the field to gain experience and knowledge.
