Review of IIT Goa - Indian Institute of Technology.

Faculty: Teachers are so good, they help us a lot, they are so knowledgeable. Curriculum is totally semester-based. Exams are a bit hard; mostly the pass percentage will be 20-30, not more than that. Feels like exams are hard, I don't know why. Curriculum makes us ready for the industry.

Good placements and campus life.

Faculty: The teachers are well qualified (most of them have a Ph.D. and high experience in research) and helpful in most of the cases throughout the semester! The syllabus and curriculum were very interesting and engaging, but most of the time you would depend on some external sources for mastering the course. I guess that would be the same case in all the engineering colleges.

Faculty: The teachers here are educated at renowned universities and have very good teaching experience. And if we talk about CSE, it's one of the most respectable courses in this current generation. The exams are tough, as it is IIT, and there is no scope for copying, cheating, or passing.

The Journey of Learning at IIT GOA.

Faculty: All teachers are well-qualified and intellectual. And the quality of teaching is excellent. This course might be non-relevant in the initial days, but as time goes on, its relevance should increase. This course helps students become industry-ready. In the initial days, the semester exams may be difficult, but as you go into the second or third semester, their difficulty decreases. If you score around 7 or above CGPA, then you will be able to get a placement.

I am not satisfied with the faculty and infrastructure but placements are improving year by year.

Faculty: Teachers in our college are very helpful. They are also highly educated but I think online, the teaching quality has been decreased. It is very relevant and they make us get our hands-on experience with some machines and also due to internships, we get completely trained. The exams are difficult compared to other normal colleges. We get deep knowledge of our subjects. Pass percentage is very good as all our students are good in education.

Compared to all 3rd generation IITs, our college is really good.

Faculty: The teachers are knowledgeable and have expertise in their subjects. The course curriculum is relevant. 8 CPI is considered good, and exams are not much difficult as you come here after giving JEE Advanced, so everything is simple compared to that.
