Review of IIT Dhanbad - Indian Institute of Technology (ISM).
Placements: I am currently pursuing integrated M.Tech in applied geology (which is a 5 years programme) from IIT (ISM) Dhanbad. I am a 2nd-year student, and to get admission in applied geology in IIT (ISM), your rank should be below 11,000 in JEE Advanced exam. The highest salary package offered in applied geology this year was 21 LPA, and the average salary package offered is 10 LPA. Some students opt for the management course, while some start their own start-up. Some students decide to pursue a PhD. Hence due to all these reasons, the overall placement rate is around 58% here.
Infrastructure: IIT (ISM) has one of the best campuses, and it consists of well-oriented classrooms. Hostels of our college have all facilities which a world-class academic institute should have. Every student of IIT (ISM) is provided with a spacious room on twin sharing basis in the hostel. The hostel and classrooms are well facilitated with a high-speed Wi-Fi facility. The central library of IIT (ISM) is Asia's 2nd hugest technical library, and it has an accommodation capacity of more than 2,000 students. The library is also facilitated with a high-speed Wi-Fi facility. Our department has a separate library, especially for geology students and faculty members. Labs are well-equipped and have all facilities, and IIT (ISM) has a Geological Museum which was established in 1926. Geological Museum has a treasure trove of more than 12,000 exhibits, and it also contains many rare specimens of minerals, rocks and fossils.
Faculty: Teachers are the best in their field as ISM is the oldest institute in India to provide the course of applied geology. Teachers here are very helpful and well qualified. Their teaching technique is awesome, which makes difficult topics easy to understand. They are very friendly and always ready to help students in every possible way as they can. The course curriculum is very much relatable and relevant. The course structure is designed in such a way that every student can understand it very easily. This course structure is surely one of the best in the country.
Other: I have chosen this course because, from my childhood, I have an interest in studying earth and its surroundings behaviour. Placements are also quite good in this course. The best thing about this course is if you earn quite a good amount of money by doing the work which you like, then you will have fun in that work. Our college organises mainly 3 fests every year, i.e., Srijan, Concetto and Basant. All departments separately organise fests every year. Our campus is approximately 10 km far away from Dhanbad railway station.
