Student Snaps:
Placement Experience:
At IIT Kanpur the standards are same and the pattern is set as well. So, from the last year we have less studies and all placements activities at top. From Alchem Labs to Ipca Labs many listed companies at NSE are the ones that offers placements and percentage for Chemical engineering is 86% as of now.

- The opportunities provided for learning anything you are interested in
- The seniors who are very helpful in mentoring you
Dislikes

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.

IIT Kanpur: 1 Answered Question
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.
