IIT Kharagpur Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

For M tech students After 1st semester students are eligible for internships and 3 rd semester they are eligibe for campus placement.The placement of the students are thorough Carrier Development Cell(CDC) .OIL,CARIN,GMDC,JIO BP.For. m tech students the % is <80% HIGHEST Pakage is between 20-25 lakhs

From Pharma Companies to research laboratories and FMGC conpanies like Britannia, ITC, HUL ane various others need chemical engineers. So, when such hige corporate groups ink a deal with IIT KGP students its no less than 1 lakh per month as in some cases its even higher too. Placements are nearly 100% as its IIT KGP.

From the academic year 2024-25, IIT Kharagpur has made changes in the central curriculum by introducing more core( according to the engineering branch) subjects making it easier for students to reamin centralised to their field.

from 3rd semester itself the placement cells start their work and provide a world cass oppertuinity for the placements . its nice in my college. i can say about my course and batch in witch this yeasr almost 14 stuents got a job from placement in core and non core out of 24 people. which is nice for a masters course where students go for reaserch more.

Nearly or almost 100% students get placed from IIT KGP, irrespective of their branch. This is the beauty about it. Four our course conpanies like the Adani Enterprises, Coal India, Ongc, Aban Offshore and others are our top recruiting companies as all of them are into mining business. Data mining is also been taught to us, so hopefully we might stand eligible to participate in IT companies too.

The placement statistics are off the charts, with 367 offers being made to 361 students in the recent edition. The student can seat for internshps offered by diffent companies that visit th campus in their pre-final year, while they are eligible to seat for the placements in their final year only. Apart from this there also other restrictions for seating in the placements like Cg should be above 8.5 and there should not have been any disciplinary charges against you, etc. The companies visiting the college also have their own preferences for selecting the students. In 2024-25 the highest CTC is nearly 2.5 crores p.a. offered to a student of CS branch. The EC department getting the most number of offers i.e. 73.

Placements are fine but a bit low package for core companies. Larsen and toubro and ramboll type companies do visit the college almost more than 50 percent studentsget placed in core and non core combined.

For MTech ,placements typically occur in the 3rd semester and almost all students sit for it. Many Product based companies visit here including the MAANG companies and many Quant and fintech companies too. The placements go for 10+ days considering the interview phase ,the OA rounds start from the month of September itself at the end of first year. The highest package offered was around 1.5 cr from CSE (BTech) and from MTech it was around 70lpa. Almost 90 percent students of MTech CSE are placed till now of our previous batch. I plan to get a job from here but plans might change based on my projects.

In third year or 6th semester students become eligible for campus placements. Highest package is 2.14Cr and the average is 14L per annum. On an average of 75-80% studentas are getting placed in campus placements

Aspects I appreciate and area for improvement: positive World glass faculty professors are highly knowledgeable, many with global research contributions. Well structured programs with elective and research opportunities. Vibrant clubs technical fasts and cultural activities. Top company visit, ensuring great job offer for students. High placement rates Top recruiters from tech, finance and consulting visit campus. Internship support college assist students in securing prestigious internships. Alumni network strong global presence, helpful in career growth. Improvement needed some nichs fields require more placement opportunities. Strong foundation courses provide in-depth theoretical and practical knowledge. Flexibility in electives students can choose interdisciplinary subjects. Need for more industry exposure more real world application and internships should be incorporated.
