All about IIT BHU

Likes

The best thing about iit bhu is the culture and environment that it provides to the students with freindly seniors.
Most importantly the placement opportunities that is provides which is very high in terms of numbers.
The location of the campus which is in the middle of the bustling city of Varanasi, which is full of life and vibrant festival celebrations.

Dislikes

The open campus brings some problem with it such as the security issue and traffic problem and some additional restrictions
The sports opportunity and facilities are there is less number than it should be as per an iit
As a government runned institute the accountability issue is there and delays in the work to be done in the institute.

Placement Experience:

The placement in iit bhu is the best you can get despite of not being called an old iit. Iit bhu ranks 3rd amoungs all iit in terms of placement and has a higher average ctc amoungs its rival iits. Also there are job opportunities even for lower branches.

IIT-BHU honest review

Likes

There is a good placement atmosphere in our collage of almost all the branches
Students from all the parts of the country come here so we get a good exposure of all types of people.
As collage is located in the heart of varanasi, so it is well connnected and the student life is very good.

Dislikes

Male to female ratio is very low. for every 4 male there is 1 female .
The infrastructure of the collage is quite old.
The campus unlike other iits is not closed. So security can be a issue especially for girls.

Student Snaps:

Course Curriculum Overview:

I had preference of electronic engineering but as per my jee rank i got mechanical engineering. It is also quite good branch with a wide range of opportunites. The curriculum is lastest updated and courses such as manufacturing practices and labs prepare us for future industrial jobs. There are many irrelavant courses as of humanitites and music,dance. There is no reason for these subjects. The difficulty level of the exam is higher in the midsem compared to the endsem which carry high weightage and is also easier relatively .

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.
