I choose this college becouse of its flexible acdemic structure and its great Alum connections. Also this is the best college i am getting according to my rank and my interest in mathematics. I have Applied for IIT delhi in electronics. IIT Delhi is also a great college but when it comes to academic focus IIT delhi lacks there. Also there faculty administratation is so strict. if a student wants to start something or he/she has a new iniative for the college , he/she will face hard time. So I couldn't make it to IIT Roper CSE branch because my jee adance rank is not that great for the Roper' Computer science. So the Admission process here at IITK is not difficult. You just the originaly document which you have submitted in your josa counselling portal and you need to verify it once here usually a couple opf hours work.

IIT Kanpur: 60 Answered Questions

Is IIT Kharagpur better than IIT Kanpur?

Sahil Sachdeva
Saugata NayakIndian Institute of Technology, Kanpur (2020)

Almost all IITs are excellent engineering colleges providing the best education and amenities. Yet there might be some comparisons that can be drawn based on common aspects like choice, infrastructure, and geographical location. Eventually, it’s a matter of your preferences and not the institute's worth.

For example, if you are someone who considers Academics the most important factor to determine the credibility of an institute, then IIT Kanpur is the best choice for you. It has the toughest grading system and the entire focus is on studies. So if you are excellent in academics, you will remain at the top here.

Both institutes face a certain level of locational disadvantage but IIT Kanpur is still slightly better in this aspect.

How is the life of an M.Tech student at IIT Kanpur?

Ayushi TiwariIIT Kanpur (2019)

IIT Kanpur maintains an excellent record of offering the finest placements. Owing to the strict admission criteria only the best students are granted admission to IIT Kanpur. 

M.Tech course offered is very challenging and requires a full-time commitment. Moreover, companies and even professors prefer BTech students over MTech students. At IIT Kanpur, you will be left with little or no time to enjoy the beautiful campus life. The students are so busy with academics that they have no time to explore themselves and get involved in extracurricular activities. You will find BTech students participating in every activity and every event. 

The situation of MTech students is very pathetic and people mostly give up right after BTech. Their placements are rarely a matter of discussion and the program itself isn’t given much importance.

How is IITK (IIT Kanpur) different from IITB (IIT Bombay)?

Neha Grover
Vijay SarnaikStudied at IIT Kanpur
IIT Kanpur and IIT Bombay are the top 2 IITs in India with IIT Kanpur giving an edge to IIT Bombay. The only aspect of IIT Bombay that is better than IIT Kanpur is its metropolitan location. In almost every other aspect, IIT Kanpur is way ahead.

  • After IITKGP, IIT Kanpur has the biggest campus in India, approximately 1100 Acres. IIT Bombay on the other hand is half the size of IIT Kanpur around 560 Acres.
  • IIT Kanpur is the only institute in India to have its own Airstrip, Hangar, Glider pilot licensing system, and National Wind Tunnel Facility.
  • The huge Open Air Theatre has the capacity to accommodate 3000 people at a time.
  • World-class sports facilities.
  • The problems of the students are catered to by the largest counseling service.

IIT Kanpur and IIT Bombay are not even comparable given the advantages IIT Kanpur has over IITB.

How are roommates allotted in IIT Kanpur? Is it according to JEE ranks?

Vijay SarnaikStudied at IIT Kanpur

No, IIT Kanpur does not have a cruel policy of allotting roommates and rooms on the basis of JEE ranks. You cannot assign someone a room on the basis of his achievements. This is pure discrimination and this practice should be discontinued. 

The only 2 institutes that follow this extreme policy are IIT and IIT BHU. The purpose of this is to ensure better living standards and ultimately better outputs from the treasures of the Institute. 

In IIT Kanpur rooms and roommates are allotted randomly and you can expect almost anyone as your roommate. Your roommates play a major role in influencing your grades, examinations, and social life.

It’s good to make new friends and socialize, but remember life at IIT Kanpur is very rigorous and not a single moment should be wasted on useless activities.

What is the difference in grading system at IIT Bombay, Delhi, Kanpur?

Veda Burman
Sumit BoseIIT Bombay (2019)

All the 3 IITs, IIT Kanpur, IIT Bombay and IIT Delhi, follow the relative grading. Under this, your grades are calculated after your GPA is generated with respect to the highest scorer's marks. This system is quite similar to that in the US except that the parameters considered while calculating grades are way different.

Grades are calculated by giving weightage to such parameters 

  • Tests
  • Assignments
  • Projects
  • Quizzes
  • Group projects
  • Class participation 

IIT B and IIT D grading system looks like this

Which is a better option: IIT Bombay mechanical vs IIT Kanpur electrical vs IIT Roorkee CS?

Yatika Mehla
Vaibhav BansalStudied at IIT Kanpur

The general preference order is 

  • College wise - IIT Bombay > IIT Kanpur > IIT Roorkee
  • Branch wise - CS > Mechanical ~ Electrical.

However, this is a popular trend, and you don't have to follow it. It is best to make a decision based on your individual preferences.

Doing something that interests you is considerably superior in the long run to doing something you dislike solely for money since, after a few years, money no longer motivates you.

Here are some information to make your decision easier:-

  • The placement scenario for EE in IIT Kanpur is good and stands next to the CS department in the table.
  • Though EE is the largest department when compared with others it still maintains its record well in placements.
  • The NIRF Ranking of IIT Bombay is 3, IIT Kanpur is 4 and IIT Roorkee is 5.
  • The Average placement at IIT Bombay Mechanical is 21.82 LPA with IIT Kanpur Electrical is 26.27 LPA and IIT Roorkee CSE is 22 LPA.
  • More than 250 companies visited IIT Kanpur campus in 2023.
  • EE offers specialisations like VLSI, SPCom, RF & Microwave, Power Engineering, Control & Automation. Placements for some of these specializations are 100 %, especially for VLSI, SPCom & RF.

Keeping aside the public’s opinion, my preference order is

 IIT Kanpur Electrical > IIT Roorkee CS > IIT Bombay Mechanical

Which one is better: aerospace engineering in IIT Kanpur, aerospace engineering in IIT Madras, mechanical engineering IIT BHU, or ECE in IIT BHU?

Lovish BajajStudied at IIT Kanpur

I am a student of B.Tech Aerospace at IIT Madras. IIT Madras is a top engineering institution in India, and a degree from here can easily land you an offer to complete your higher education in Ivy League colleges (if you are among the top 10% in your batch). You may even land a job offer at prestigious institutions like ISRO once you graduate. 

Here is a comparison among IIT Kanpur, IIT Madras and IIT BHU:

It is evident from the following data that in terms of placements, the Mechanical and Electronics branches of IIT BHU are better. But if you have the slightest interest in Aerospace Engineering, IIT Madras will open plenty of opportunities for you in this sector.

If research/higher studies interest you, IIT Madras is the best option due to its superior reputation. You’ll get to work at some of the best organizations like HUL, ISRO, and DRDO. Moreover, you’ll be exposed to world-class infrastructure, and some of the best professors. 

So if you have an interest in Aerospace Engineering, I would suggest you opt for IIT Madras over all the other options.
