Review of HBTU (one of the top state universities).
Placements: Around 76% students were placed last year. The highest package was 36 LPA, and the lowest went around 1.5 LPA, while the average was 8 LPA. The top recruiting companies were TCS, Samsung, IBM, Adani, Cognizant, Nestled, asian paints, HCL, indian oil, Reliance, Wipro, Flipkart, Amazon, Berger Paints, ExxonMobil, Hero Motocorp, Optum, Honeywell and SRF Limited. From my course of CSE, around 20% got internships from companies like Google, Adobe, Amazon, samsung r&d, TCS, IBM, Paytm, Optum, Byju's, etc. The top roles offered in my course (CSE) are software development engineer, design engineer, data analyst, cloud engineer, graduate engineer, project engineer, ui/ux designer, etc.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of my department is quite old and needs renovation. Wi-Fi is available with good speed throughout the campus. If I talk about the library, it is well-maintained and you can get almost all books and journals from here. The quality of rooms in the hostel is average, and you'll get double and triply seated rooms in 1st, 2nd and 3rd year, while in the final year, you will get a personal single room for sure. The quality of the mess food is average, but it degrades as time passes.
Faculty: The teachers in HBTU are highly qualified and helpful, while you'll find a bunch of faculty members in HBTU who are very rude and get offended very easily. Overall, the teaching quality is great. The curriculum needs to be improved as soon as possible. It doesn't actually make you industry-ready. The exams are quite easy here, you can easily score marks and a good CG just by studying the day before the exam.
Other: I chose this course because of my interest in CSE, and it was the best possible option at my JEE Main rank. The quality of labs could be improved in my course, as the proper computers and components are not available here. The college has events around March-April, hosting 3 major fests. The campus crowd is overall good, you'll find most Kanpur locals here. It has good connectivity as it is located in the middle of the city. It provides all the scholarships; the only requirement is that you are eligible for them.

I am dissatisfied due to bad faculty, bad placement states, and old curriculum.
Placements: Placement states have become really poor now. Many CSE students stay unplaced even after the whole placement cycle. In the second-semester cycle of the 2024-25 session, an attendance policy was suddenly implemented due to which more than half of students are unable to take mid-semester exams, posing a lot of academic loss to students. Some of the final year students are detained from sitting in placements because of having less attendance.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure in the college is not very good. Buildings are old, furnished, and finished. Classrooms for the first year students only are air-conditioned and there too the ACs don't work properly. Some water coolers in the college don't even work. Labs are good but apparatus in labs are old. Some apparatus is broken, some don't work. Wi-Fi on the campus doesn't work most of the time. The library is good. It provides a calm and good environment to study. Right now, the condition of food in the mess is pathetic. The food and water quality is really bad.
Faculty: The college curriculum still follows an old curriculum. They teach students things that have lost significance long ago in their careers, but still, the college forces the students to learn them making it productive for students. In the first year, every branch is taught the subjects of every other branch, like CSE students are taught mechanical, engineering, and civil engineering, which are of no use to them. Some professors are supportive of students but some are not. Most professors are not able to teach efficiently, and they may have good experience and industrial experience, but teaching is out of their league.
Other: Actually, this was my last choice as I was not getting any good branches in good NITs. So, as a last choice, I had to opt for CSE in HBTU, Kanpur. Quality checks of teaching by professors, uniformity in exam evaluation systems, etc., should make it better for students.

Review of Harcourt Butler Technical University, Kanpur.
Placements: HBTU is a good college in terms of placements; it provides good packages to its students. The average package is nearly 6 LPA at HBTU, with the highest being 45 LPA, which I find quite impressive. There is a very good placement cell that handles student placements.
Infrastructure: The faculty at HBTU is very good, and a major factor in coming to this college is the faculty. They understand the students and help them with any troubles. They guide you in every way to help you achieve what you want in life. The best part is that our faculty members are from outside India.
Faculty: Exams at HBTU are held in a very decent way. There are two mid-semester exams and one end-semester exam. Mid-semester exam contains 15 marks each, and the semester exam contains 50 marks. In the last, there is a total of these marks, and you got your CGPA based on this.
Other: If you want to secure your future, come to HBTU.

Placement is very bad, the faculty is guest. Facilities are average.
Placements: HBTU was a premium college. But after COVID, the placement went down seriously. Even a company has banned a college like Samsung. In HBTU, attendance is compulsory, while studies are optional. There is no opportunity for an internship. The average package is around 6.5 lakhs per annum.
Infrastructure: The hostel infrastructure is very bad. Colleges do not try to take care of but it is the only source of revenue. There is one library which closes at 7 pm and is near the girls' hostel. The classroom has AC, but the main problem is with the water cooler. Our college is no less than Pakistan without water.
Faculty: The course curriculum followed is still very old. Semesters are tough. Here, teachers do not teach much. As they are mostly guest faculty. But set the paper very hard. There is no passing percentage. Colleges do not make ready for students.
Other: This college is the hub of the couple, and here attendance is compulsory and studies are optional.

Good for tire 3 college. Good college if your rank is around 30-40 thousand in CRL.
Placements: HBTU Kanpur placements 2024 final report is yet to be disclosed. According to sources, the highest package is INR 19.5 LPA which is offered by Zscaler to IT students. Some of the top recruiters of HBTU placements 2024 included Insurance Dekho, Samsung, Hireme, Lummus Teach, Commvault, etc. Earlier in the 2023 placement drive at HBTU, students achieved a placement percentage of 84.02% with 484 jobs. Samsung gives 15 LPA packages to 20 students. According to the placement report, the highest package is INR 36 LPA while the average package is INR 9.3 LPA.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is quite good in this college. Since it is 100 years old, the buildings are looking old. There are few hostels that are in very poor condition like Shree Dharacharya Hostel. Some buildings are in good condition and some are not. Mess is in very poor condition.
Faculty: Here, faculty members vary with their department like in the CSE department. Faculty members are very helpful and adjustable. In mechanical engineering, faculty members are strict.
Other: Fest is also organised in this college. In 2025, there are suddenly 75% of attendance started to follow very strictly.

I am not satisfied with college.
Placements: Placements are in very critical condition. The packages vary from 2 LPA to 15 LPA. Only 60% of students are able to receive jobs. The major company includes TCS. It needs improvement drastically. Roles that are offered include data scientist, etc.
Infrastructure: Being a state-funded college its infrastructure is not up to mark. It has a poor Wi-Fi facility including library which is not available 24 hours. There is an unavailability of hostel for 2nd,3rd, and 4th year students so they have to go to the West campus. HBTU has good food quality in canteen.
Faculty: Some teachers are seniors. They are highly qualified and knowledgeable but teachers who joined within 5- 7 years are just a showcase. They pretend to be knowledgeable. Course curriculum followed is still the same and has not been updated with fast-growing technology.
Other: I chose this course because it was in high demand concerning placement but as soon as I entered the college. I found it to be complete myth. This year fest is not held but some extracurricular activities are conducted.

College without any hidden secret.
Placements: Earlier, the placement record was quite good but after corona, it declined. The overall placement percentage is 80-90%. The average package in mechanical engineering and chemical engineering is around 8 LPA - 9 LPA and 7 LPA - 8 LPA respectively. Some good companies which are visiting my college are Samsung, R&D, TCS, etc.
Infrastructure: As it is a more than 100 years old college, the building is old and some need to be renovated like Shridhar Acharya Hostel. One very nice thing is there is the greenery which I like the most. There is a library whose timing is not good. It is from 10 AM to 7 PM. There is Wi-Fi in the hostel.
Faculty: Here, all teachers are not so qualified and knowledgeable but some are helpful like Rekha mam. She is a maths faculty. The teaching quality of some teachers is very bad. The course curriculum is not so relevant. It doesn't make students industry-ready. The course curriculum needs to be improved.
Other: The behaviour of seniors is not so good.

Pros and cons of taking admission in HBTU.
Placements: Placements at HBTU were fairly good enough till last year, but this year, the placements of CS IT have been very poor due to recession in the IT field. On the other hand, they are good enough like in branches of mechanical, chemical, paint, etc. Placements have been above 80%.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure of our college is good. The classes in our CS department are fully air conditioned and the library is good being fully air conditioned as well, having 1.5 lac books available. Wi-Fi facility is available across the entire college. Hostel infrastructure is also good but there is a problem of traveling from the west campus to the east campus as the hostels for the 2nd, 3rd and final year students are in the west campus and classes operate in the east campus.
Faculty: The faculty members are highly qualified and most of them are professors having completed their Ph.D. from renowned colleges. But there is one major problem that is the lack of support from the faculty towards the students. The course curriculum is okay as it is almost 80-90% similar to that of AKTU.
Other: Fest are the main charm of our college as big celebrities come to HBTU to perform and last time Sandeep Jain, the founder of geeks for geeks, came and delivered a mind blowing speech. Crowd is also fair enough as majorly there are 70 to 80 seats per branch.
