The samosa and chai ofcourse, LC is the heart of our campus

Dislikes

There is no AC's in the classroom. Even in hot summer days, we have to study in fan based classrooms
At times, there's a lot of pressure from the teaching faculty for just 2 credits, it creates too much stress on students
The security here is not much, though the authority is working on this issue

Placement Experience:

IIT BHU stands among the top colleges with the highest placement rates. Even during the recession period, it withstands it's name and fame. We had an average package of rupees 18,00,000 per annum which is a great amount.

Brief description of IIT BHU

Likes

I liked the placements of the college teh placements of all the branches are quite impressive. Last year the median package of our branch was around 29 LPA which was wonderfull
The variety of courses offered by our college is very good we have many courses ranging from computer science to pharmaceuticals engineering.
I liked the clubs of the colleges. There are many clubs in the college and also they are very active that i liked the most.

Dislikes

Infrastructure is not that good. The hostels are very old but they are improving slowly that is good.
I disliked the thing is that most of the students are doing coding and not exploring the fields here because in college every 3rd or 4th person is doing coding so because of peer pressure everyone is doing that.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum of the the college is same as that of other government institutions. The first year curriculum is same for every students as there is an option of branch change after the first semester and the top performers of the college got opportunity of changing the branch. I choose electronics engineerong of iit bhu because first of all it is a circuital branch and secondly it is quits interesting. The course curriculum is quite good and we have also given the real world aspects of the branch by doing exploratory project which we have to do under a proffessor. In this branch we have digital electronics, communication, analog electronics and many more the labs are also quite good with a wide range of expensive equipments in labs which make our study more interesting. The exams are held every semester one is mid semester exam and another one is end semester exam and other class tests are also happemed sometimes. The difficulty of exams is moderate.

IIT BHU: 4 Answered Questions

What is your review of Indian Institute of Technology Varanasi (IIT BHU)?

Tithi SenguptaB.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology Varanasi (IIT BHU)

My review of IIT BHU will be based on some very common parameters.

Infrastructure: The academic buildings are not air-conditioned and are equipped with obsolete instruments. The hostels are surrounded by natural beauty but the living conditions are pathetic with cramped rooms and dirty toilets. The poor LAN connections are a major major problem here.
Faculty: The faculty again is very disappointing. some even lack basic knowledge and some are too arrogant to guide the students. The answer sheets are checked in a disorganized way and the pedagogy adopted is old school. So here, you will have to completely depend on self-study.
Research: The majority of the faculty focuses on administrative tasks and fails to encourage students to research work. The institute has no globally recognized research work to date.
Facilities: The library has poorly organized books and lacks good study material. The LAN network is another major issue faced by students here. The departments are closed by 6 ok and the library is locked by 10 pm. This is a major hindrance during exams.
Campus life: The frequent student activities make the campus life of IIT BHU lively and dynamic. A number of activities are organized in IIT-Gymkhana by the students and Kashi Yatra is the annual cultural festival of the institute. There are amazing sports facilities like huge grounds and fields for Cricket, Football, Badminton, and Tennis.
Placements: IIT BHU has one of the best placements among the top IITs. Currently, IIT Bhu Placements 2023 is being held and around 474 offers and 305 PPOs have been made. IIT BHU's highest CTC was recorded at INR 1.2 CPA. A total of 117 recruiters took part in IIT BHU Placements 2023. Top recruiters included Airbnb India, Uber, Microsoft, Accenture, Piramal, etc. Last year the highest CTC stood at INR 2.05 CPA which was offered by UBER.

Overall, IIT BHU is a great choice if you are willing to sacrifice the hostel conditions and self-study.

What are the changes that took place in the college after IT-BHU got converted into IIT BHU?

Nivedita TrivediLives in Varanasi

My friend was a student at IIT BHU and he witnessed a number of changes as the IT BHU got converted into IIT BHU.

The Vishwakarma hostel became a 3 storied building
Kashi yatra, the annual socio-cultural festival of IIT(BHU) Varanasi stayed open till 10.
The grading system first changed to absolute from relative and then finally back to relative grading.
Mid-semester tests were introduced in place of class tests.
One of the sandwich shops became a complete multi-storied restaurant.
The Chemical Engineering department was updated in many ways.
The students were no longer allotted single rooms.
The campus facilities were improved including the Internet connections.
The 90 % attendance rule was introduced.
The institute got 3 new directors.

These were some of the changes my friend witnessed after the IT BHU got transformed into IIT BHU.

What are the views of IIT-BHU students about Kashi Utkarsh?

Nivedita TrivediLives in Varanasi

My friend is an alumnus of IIT-BHU and he was a member of the Kashi Utkarsh too. He claims the organization is doing really well in eradicating the prevalent social constraints through the collective efforts of the group. The body convinces the financially weak families living in Varanasi slums to send their children to schools with the help of KU funding.

As easy as this may sound, the actual process is very tiring. The families are hell-bent against education and persuading them is a big task. The relentless efforts of the team members of KU and their compassion to serve the weak have brought massive changes in society.

However, some students of the institute don’t give KU the respect they deserve and are not ready to spend a single penny claiming that KU pockets the funds themselves.

If you visit the social media handles of the KU members, you will find a list of children who get into the formal education system along with their school fees being paid by KU. Dictionary the constant assistance from professors like Prof. Ashim Mukherjee with KU helps KU stay strong.
