Likes
- First thing I liked is obviously the campus, it is beautiful enough to give you natural dopamine and it is big enough for a whole night walk
- The second thing is the academic infrastructure, classrooms, library and Labs all have AC and beautifully maintained.
- The security guard, they are most liked facility in IIT Kanpur, the way they give their best for the our security, the way they give their best, you will be felt very special
Dislikes
- Electricity bills, when you will get monthly mess+electricity bill, sometimes it cross ₹1000 per month per person in a hostal. Avg ₹700/month/person
- Water shortage in hostels, 'sometimes' you need to walk(Max. 250m) to different block to bring water
Course Curriculum Overview:
Course curriculum is very much in order therefore you wouldn't find anything irrelevant. Since BSBE is all about engineering in biology, many times we connect the course topic to our real life things, wheather it is about food or any organ function and its health.
When it comes to examinations, difficulty level varies from courses to courses(easy, moderate and hard all varieties). In case of exam timings, at the worst case, your one exam will end at 8pm night and the next start at 8am morning.

IIT Kanpur: 2 Answered Questions
Is IIT Guwahati becoming the next IIT Kanpur?
Saugata NayakIndian Institute of Technology, Kanpur (2020)
Both IIT Guwahati and IIT Kanpur are well-respected institutions, known for their high-quality education and research. Comparing the two is already justified and saying that one institution is becoming the next of the other is more so. Both institutions have their strengths and areas of expertise. Yet, if I was to choose one I would have always gone for IIT Kanpur.
Some points that favor my preference are as follows:
- The quality of coursework at IIT Kanpur is extremely challenging and will keep you on your toes always. It offers the best quality of education and you will learn much more than other IITs if you are regular to classes and take your academics seriously,
- The usual schedule of a student at IIT Kanpur is not always jammed, unlike the general opinion. The timings of the clubs align with the classes and you can take out time for both if you are good at managing your time well.
- Another challenging aspect of IIT Kanpur is its tough grading system, (10,8,6,4..) under which anything below 10 is 8. Thus you are under tremendous pressure to maintain your CGPA and is enough of a motivating factor.
Overall, even if Guwahati was to be compared to IIT Kanpur, it still has a long way to go until it becomes the next IIT Kanpur.

What is your review of the earth sciences department at IIT Kanpur?
Vijay SarnaikStudied at IIT Kanpur
The Earth Sciences is a Department imparting education related to the study of Earth and its geological reliefs. The best part about this Department is that every course here overlaps with some or the other course of other departments making it a multifaceted one.
Earth Sciences curriculum overlaps with many courses in Material Science and Physics, Civil and Chemical, and even Electrical and CSE. This provides diversity in the overall learning experience of the course making it very interesting.
The only major issue is that due to common courses, the curriculum is vague and has no well-defined structure and content. We hope that this flaw is taken care of in the near future.
The program provides versatile job prospects even in the field of Satellite Remote Sensing, weather prediction, and geothermal power plants.
