- The huge campus is obviously one the most attractive things
- The opportunities provided for learning anything you are interested in
- The seniors who are very helpful in mentoring you
Dislikes
- The lack of sanitation at some places of the campus
Course Curriculum Overview:
I chose this course because of the college prestige and the good academics of iitk. The professors here are very well qualified and all of them are very good mentors. In one semester there are two major exams midsems and endsems and a quiz before each. It is not very difficult to score good in these exams and get a good grade if you study just a little hard.

- Overall greenery in campus and that too well maintained in 1140 acres of land.
- Supportive seniors: You stuck in a problem all you need you is to contact the senior in that domain. He/she would always be ready to help you out
- Peer groups: Here tops mind from all over India comes and live in a close enviroment you will get to learn new skills, cultures etc.
Course Curriculum Overview:
The main reason why I choose this course because I am geniunely very much exicited how engineering can be used in biological fields. I have an option of choosing a branch which is considered better than BSBE but I decided to not opt for that branch only because of my intrest.
If I talk about my branch there is around 50 students so faculty student ratio is very good its feels like I'm in school.
There is no doubt about the faculty Qualification of faculties who is teaching in IITs but what I feel is that they are not able to deliver what exactly they want Or may be they know that much which is above our understanding limits. So before Exams online sources like youtube and other educational platforms are key to success.
Talking about Exams Mid sem and End sem is conducted as per tentative dates and there are also quizes in between the courses which are basically class tests and that are also grades so you have to also score good in that. It is not that hard to pass any course

IIT Kanpur: 2 Answered Questions
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.

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.
