IIT BHU Reality

Likes

College environment is very good , seniors are very cooperative they help you everytime.
Proffs are friendly . Laboratory staffs always help you in your experiment .
Campus is beautiful, greenery and you will love it for sure when you visit here . There is vishwanath temple inside the campus, security is good and overall you will like the infrastructure.

Dislikes

Some Security problem, due to open college . Bhu and IIT bhu is mixed , but nowadays they improved the security and everywhere set a camera and proctors are available on every road .
Laboratory is not as per IIT , means not well maintained and some equipments are also not available.
Old hostels are not maintained every year . Doors, windows and paints of room sometimes is in worst condition but they don't change it or if they change the process is slow. It wil take 1-2 months minimum.

Student Snaps:

Placement Experience:

Campus placement is very good here , approx everyone will get placement who wish for it . Many students will decide to do govt job, some choose mba ,PhD ,etc then only placement percentage decreases . Otherwise everyone who try for placement and do hardwork they will get placement of good package. Avg package here is approx 20 lakh . All companies Indian , mnc visit here . So placement is best here , in some lower branches you can face issue but you will get placement there too of 10-15 lakh package. So overall good for placement.

There's proper greenery in campus area. Well planted trees and sampling are there with three grounds present.
There's plenty of events and fests conducted. Ganesh chaturthi, Saraswati pooja, Durga Pooja, makar sankranti are also held here

Dislikes

Campus is open campus, which means it is open to all the public which makes it very populated area and unsafe for students at all the time
Since it is more than 100 years old, buildings are old and rusty.

Placement Experience:

For B.Tech after 2nd year , students can sit for internships and after 3rd they go for their placements . For IDD students , they sit for the same after 1years , i.e after 3rd year for intern and 4th year for placement. Companies like Google , Microsoft , Amazon , Flipkart , Oracle , JP Morgan , TATA , Intel , Walmart, Goldman Sachs visits the college. Almost 90% of the students are placed in their placement season . Highest package for 2023 was 1.4 cr with average 24 lpa stipend .

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.
