The aspects being as simple as the peer group one get here and the opportunities one gets here while the dream to work big someday.
It's great as well after all it's an IIT. The peer group is amazing and so are the mentors here and the proffs that do the amazing jobs to teach us.

Dislikes

Around the outskirts, we need to go to other parts of the same city to have fun.

Placement Experience:

After the 7the semester I guess, students become eligible for campus placements. World renowned corporations and Mncs do visit every year for various job roles. The no. Of companies visiting is around 250+, more than 85% of the total students in a circuital branch and approx 70% from a non circuital branch do get placed. I have currently no actual idea about what I will be doing after getting the degree.

IIT ( BHU) a TIER-1 IIT?

Likes

Holy City of Varanasi, it's spirituality and the Ganga ghats
Less strict academics with not many restrictions
Placement stats are much better compared to other new generation IITs

Dislikes

Open campus, we don't have good level of security.
Not having our own auditorium or Open air theatre
We cannot convert our Dual degree to btech course

Placement Experience:

As a technical institute mostly students go for roles such as Software development, product management, consultancy, data analytics, data science, Machine learning/AI , Quant etc. For placements btech students can sit for tests after 6th semester and for IDD students they can sit after 8th semester. I was a part of Training and placement cell and hence got an nice experience during this year's placement session. Highest CTC offer was 1.6Cr for Quant role in NX securities and average package of Mathematics and computing department being highest, about 30lakhs and over-all average package of 18Lakhs. As of now around 65- 70% students are placed with 1200+ offers given overall. Iam planning for Data Analyst role in future as if little bit aligns with my current curriculum and interest.

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.
