    IIT Hyderabad: The Dream College.
    Placements: I am currently in 1st year in the biotechnology department at IIT Hyderabad. In the placement year 2023, 72% of students were placed from our college, with major companies visiting our campus such as Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Goldman, sacs, etc. The highest package is 93. LPA and the lowest package is 6.5 LPA. Internships are pretty good in the college. Most of the students from my department had easily got on-campus internships.
    Infrastructure: Since the hostels for the UG students were recently constructed they are neat clean and spacious. There is also the facility of radiant cooling which is a game change in the scorching heat of Hyderabad. The sports complex offers a wide range of sports facilities which are world-class. Though the mess food is hygienic and nutritional but the taste is not so good.
    Faculty: The faculty of IIT Hyderabad are qualified and knowledgeable. The course curriculum is also relevant. The examination pattern is that of a typical engineering college and happens in three phases mid-seems, end-seems, and quizzes. Out of 100 students, roughly 4-5 people get back. So the pass percentage is nearly 95%.
    Other: If you are planning to take admission, just go for it.
