    Great things take time, and IIT Dharwad will shine.
    Placements: Chemical, biochemical, civil, maths, and computing are the branches introduced in 2022. There is no data present for placements. But branches like CS, mechanical, and electrical have average placements. The average salary package offered is 15 LPA. The percentage of students who got placed from those branches is around 70-80%.
    Infrastructure: As the college is in the developing phase, it is not the appropriate time to conclude about infrastructure, but till now the buildings are class, big, and enough to meet the requirements of an IIT. All the basic facilities are available to the students and staff members. We have a mess, a gymkhana, 2 hostels, one wellness center, etc. There is a lack of sports grounds, so we used it from the Walmi campus.
    Faculty: The course curriculum is good like the other IITs. Teachers are highly qualified. Their teaching quality is very good. There are 2 short exams like quizzes along with mid-semester and end-semester. The course curriculum mainly focused on subjects like physics, chemistry maths, and biology in the first year, and then onwards to the specific industry.
    Other: Campus life is overall good. Due to the lack of the infrastructure, it is incomplete.

    I think, as a 3rd Gen IIT student, the placements are improving from year to year.
    Placements: In my course, CSE, 60 students are there in total for 1st-year students, with two sections, S1 and S2, 160 students in each section. As a first-year student, I did not know much about placements, but as a 3rd-generation IIT student, it is the best of all. The average package is 21 LPA for CSE.
    Infrastructure: Nice buildings, nice hostel, nice mess, nice roads, nice gym, nice indoor stadium, nice people, nice staff, good atmosphere, environment, nice college, nice people, nice atmosphere for the library, and a very good library, nice chairs in the library, very high-class library.
    Faculty: Good faculty, nice qualified teachers, and Ph.D. teachers from prospective IITs. The courses for the first year are very relevant, and the exams are quite difficult, but you can do with minimum preparation day by day. Exams are quizzes, midsem, and endsem exams.
    Other: As a first-year student, the fresher's party is the only event conducted till now, but there are other courses and activities as told by seniors.

    Good infrastructure but come mentally prepared.
    Placements: There are 12 students from the chemical engineering branch. The highest package is 54 lakhs in the CS branch. Very few students get internships in any branch. As ours is the third batch, since this is a new IIT, we still don't know about chemical engineering placements.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very good, but hostel food is not. The classrooms and library are really nice. But, there are frequent power cuts. The Wi-Fi offers fast internet. There is a wellness center if you are sick, a sports complex to play games and a gym. Canteen food is affordable and tasty.
    Faculty: Semester exams are difficult. Students have to prepare from the start of the semester itself. Yes, the chemical engineering branch is really helpful in the core side. Almost all the professors are highly qualified, but a few don't have proper ability to teach.
    Other: There will be 2 or 3 DJ nights in each semester and many teach meetups. There will be an inter-IIT sports once a year.

    Our college has good faculty members who happily clear students' doubts.
    Placements: This year placements are going on because our branch started three years ago. We hope that this year will get better placements. There is a career development cell (CDC) that helps to join internships. There are advanced research facilities that help more to qualify.
    Infrastructure: They provide labs, equipment, materials, and everything. I'm still in my first year in this college, so I don't know about the engineering lab. Our seniors say that they are better than mechanical. Everything is good. Our college provides all facilities like a medical lab, hostel, canteen, and mess. The ground for cricket and football is under construction and will be available in the next year. There is a wellness center here for medical issues. We have a common indoor facility for indoor sports. There is a gym.
    Faculty: Teachers are ready to clarify our doubts. They are qualified and knowledgeable. Semester exams are medium to difficult. The pass percentage is 30%.

    IITs with best buildings, the latest IITs.
    Placements: Mine is B. Tech Chemical and Biochemical Engineering. It is a 4-year course containing Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics, and Biology. There are around 50 members in our batch. Many seniors got internship offers, and they were placed in different industries, and a few started their own labs.
    Infrastructure: The buildings and infrastructure are quite amazing. As ours is a new generation IIT, everything was built recently, and everything is amazing. It feels good to experience things here, though there may be a little discomfort with Wi-Fi, but it’s okay. Everything provided is of fine quality.
    Faculty: The curriculum is super good. Exams are not so tough, but they are okay. Paper standards are set by the professors who teach us, and attempting those papers will be thrilling and exciting. Yes, of course, our course curriculum is relevant to our daily lives and makes us ready for the industry.
    Other: Of course, IITs are super cool, and fests don’t happen often, but they are amazing. Sports and cultural competitions will also be held.
