Placement Experience:
The placements at IIT Kgp are one of the best in the country. There is a career development cell, which manages and conducts placements each year. The average package is 16 LPA. After 7th semester Btech students can sit for the placements and after 9th semester dual degree students can sit for the placements. My plan is to go for a corporate job after getting the degree
