All the big brands and big tech giants come to the campus for great opportunity opportunity for students you can apply for placements from the fifth semester itself.
College provides a lot of scholarships like merit cum means scholarship, inspire scholarship, and fee waiver scheme.
The faculty members are really good as they are great researchers in their respective fields.
Dislikes
But, if we talk about scholarship then it's a bad news that there is no institute scholarship for unreserved students but u can get it for other organisations like nsp.
The hostel rooms are also not good enough and lack cleanliness sometimes and have broken chairs/ tables, etc. at times.
The academic workload can be sometimes demanding, not always but sometimes, leading to stress and pressure among students.

Big campus as it provides places and areas for different game and activities which facilitates more than 20 games and more than 60 clubs
Most large base of senior connectivity all over the world
Profs are topmost and batchmates are one of the top in India
Dislikes
Kharagpur weather is not good over the year. Summer is very hot and with all the humidity its very sticky to live and study
Very poor connectivity with any long transportation medium like airport or good railway station
Course Curriculum Overview:
Course curriculum is really best as it provides in dept knowledge of courses along with industry experience which is very much required in this competitive world to get a good job and building careers. Even though it is so good it's load is very less with five hour classes daily for five days a week. Just a tab of Bachelor of Science is what we do not like..
I like digital library facility and wide source of avaibility study material
I like facilities of societies, sports ,lab and other facilities for holistic development.
Placement Experience:
Fifth semesterstudents become eligible for campus placements .Coal India, Bharat Aluminium Company Limited ,Microsoft etc.companies are visited and highest package 2.5 crore and twenty six lakh average package.Around 80% of students getting placements
Campus life - with over 2000 acres of campus and amazing greenery, and lot of places to go around and explore on campus with friends
the people in IIT KGP - very helpful, amazing people. bonding with seniors is great, who are always ready to help us
the sheer volume and variety of opportunities that we students get access to is phenomenal, helping us explore our interests and work towards better careers
Dislikes
the management in general lacks responsiveness and accountability, especially hall management
situation of food, especially hard for vegetarians (relative to non-veg) to find affordable quality and healthy options for food. and not to mention the dismal state of mess food
hygiene and weather - while the campus is clean and green, the hygiene in some cases, especially food, hostels etc, is questionable. weather also is a big adjustment to deal with, terribly humid and hot.
Placement Experience:
Placements are good. Top companies like Apple, Microsoft and Google do offer placements and PPOs to students. Students are eligible for placements in their final year. Highest offers go up to as high as Rs. 2 Cr or 4 Cr. About 750+ offers including PPOs were made during first few days of the start of the placement season this year in IIT Kharagpur. Overall placement percentage as been above 85%. Profiles of placements vary, including a good mix of both core companies and tech companies.
I intend to pursue MS in Economics or MBA, depending on future interests.
Cultural Diversity: There are people from every part of the country. Mixing with them and knowing them makes me feel good.
Number of Societies/clubs: Name an interest, there is a society for it. There is full freedom to explore your passions.
Sports Facilities: There are soo many sports to play here. Every sport has its own indivisual facility to play.
Dislikes
Number of people: There are 1800 freshers which increases competition manyfold. I dont say competition is bad, but it is a lot.
Politics: During General Championships, and Elections for posts, there is a lot of politics being played here.
Mess Food: A common concern which everyone shares here.
Placement Experience:
Students become eligile for placements in their final year. That is the second to last semister. The placements of our college is pretty good. This year stats are out. According to Awaaz IIT Kgp, 1353 offers were given to 1277 students with the highest on campus placement being a whopping 1.69cr/yr package. There are no details of the overall average package, but details are out for branch wise packages.

I currntly have no future plans but I want to stay in India and work for my country.
The atmosphere in the campus is very good. Theres no ragging and you can reach out to anyone anytime.
Its like a mini India inside. You interact with students fromevery part of the country and you learn a lot too.
Youre are very free inside the campus. No one is going to stop you till you disturb others. Its a double edged sword but you sure do enjoy.
Dislikes
The older faculty are kind of shrewd. Sometimes they do t teach you as humans but machines.
Talking to administration for problems is really difficult. They do listen to you but it takes time.
There's always a long process for some problems you face. You have to know everything to fix someth.

As campus is huge we need to travel much to attend classes around 1.5km, so by walk it will be tough.

the mess food is not up to the mark and really needs a upgrade
the weather is actually unpredictable and could rain anytime
Student Snaps:

Guards. In Indian institute of technology Kharagpur Guards are very polite.
The campus is very big and pretty and I am in love with the greenery present here.
The teachers are good and very talented. They help us clear our doubts in any case.
Dislikes
Very huge crowd since KGP holds a population of around 16K people.
Mess food is not that good. You mostly have to starve yourself or eat outside
The weather here is very hot and humid. It starts raining at any time.
Placement Experience:
Placements are the sexiest thing about my college. Placements are the only thing our youth target for. Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Jane Street, Goldman Sachs are the companies, which offer placements around 1 CR per annum.
The campus is quite good you will get an environment where their is a good bonding between your peeps
The sports and tech events gives a lot of exposure to the students
The campus is quite big and beautiful and almost every thing you need is available inside the campus
Dislikes
The acadmic is quite hectic you have to put extra effort to score well in tests
As the campus is far away from any city so you have to travel to long way in case of emergency
The medical facilities is not that upto norch.You can cure you small sickness from the hospital which is available in campus but in serious case you have to go to hospital which is 20-30km from campus
Student Snaps:
