It is the best college for mining and petroleum engineering courses.
Placements: In my course, almost 90 percent of students got placed. Top recruiting companies include Coal India Limited, CIL, etc. Almost 50 percent of students got internships. Students are also placed in the consulting and management department in companies like Accenture India Market Unit and Accenture Global Network.
Infrastructure: Facilities are good. The hostel is not that good in terms of food and other facilities. Hostels are not very flexible in entry and exit timings. Labs are good. The library is a very good place.
Faculty: Faculty members are excellent. Teachers are very helpful and good. Almost all faculty members are master's and PhD holders in their department. The course is very helpful and makes students industry-ready. Semester exams are difficult across various subjects. Faculty members are very experienced. Their teaching is exciting and attractive.
Other: Events are not very good.

Really enjoyable and a great place to study while exploring the campus and curriculum.
Placements: I am Paramesh from IIT Dhanbad. Placement statistics at this college are good. It is approximately 92 percent. The highest package offered here is around 60 LPA. The average is approximately 25 LPA. They offer many opportunities here, such as Goldman Sachs, Google, Amazon, and Accenture.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure might look old, but it is strong since it was built in 1926 during the British period. The auditorium has good capacity. Classrooms are equipped with central AC and smart boards. The library is much bigger than expected. They provide an excellent study environment.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, guide us, and are available for personal interaction. The curriculum covers all modern technologies relevant at the global level. Examinations are above average. It depends on good time management.
Other: Students are also welcome to join various clubs, cultural events, and tech fests. You may find your seniors strict. But it is better to follow their rules since they may know something you don’t.

The campus has a classic environment, well-trained faculty, and good placements every year.
Placements: Around 84 percent of students get placed. The highest package offered is 58 LPA, and the lowest package offered is 15 LPA. The average package offered is 24 LPA. Top recruiting companies like Google, Amazon, Flipkart, Tata, Microsoft, etc., hire students. Around 60-70 percent of students get internships in companies like Google, Amazon, Microsoft, etc. Roles like data analyst, operating system, ML engineers, and information security-related engineers are offered.
Infrastructure: All facilities are good in terms of academics, like labs, Wi-Fi, classrooms, and branchwise departments. The campus environment is very nice, with lots of trees. It has a pollution-free campus, as most vehicles run on electricity. Hostels are also nice. We get both good non-vegetarian and vegetarian food. Sports and games are excellent here. All required courts are available here. We also have a student activity centre where we play indoor games.
Faculty: Teachers are well-trained. Their tactics in designing exam papers are really awesome. Teaching is also good. They use the digital projector for displaying slides. They also use the smart board to explain. They will also update the course based on time and current situation to make students ready to face the competition in the industrial world with updated skills, somehow we learn them at least by clubs. The pass percentage is about 90-95 percent.
Other: In view of the present and future situation and the job market, in society, software engineers occupy major roles in development, so I chose the Computer Science and Engineering course. I think that some skills should not be taught through clubs, but should be a mandatory skill to learn by everyone through the curriculum. It is better to implement this in the present curriculum (presentation and communication skills). Events, fests and extracurricular activities organised are also good here as they are governed by students and funded by the campus and other local companies.

Honest review of IIT (ISM) Dhanbad.
Placements: Around 85 to 90 percent of students get placed almost every year. The highest package is 59 LPA, and the average is 24 LPA. Recruiting companies include Google, Zomato, and Blinkit. 50 out of 140 students got internships last year at companies such as Cisco, Google, and Microsoft. Roles offered include web developer, data scientist, app developer, software engineer, etc.
Infrastructure: Campus Wi‑Fi is available free of cost and for unlimited use. Labs are equipped with computers, although some systems are old. Classrooms are air-conditioned and very spacious. The best thing about our college is its 7‑storey library containing thousands of books, with ample sitting areas and a cafeteria. Hostels are small. The mess/food is the greatest downside. Currently, our sports grounds are under renovation, so sports aren’t active lately.
Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified, with all being Ph.D. holders. Some have advanced qualifications. Teaching quality is satisfactory. The course curriculum makes students industry‑ready. Semester exams are not very difficult, and most students get around 95%.
Other: I chose this course because it is Computer Science from an IIT, which is the best thing about it. I think they could reduce some theory classes and replace them with practical or lab classes. There are three major events/fests organised at our IIT, not including sports fests and sports meets.
