Indian Institute of Technology has the best architecture.
Placements: IIT Hyderabad 2024 placements showcase impressive statistics. 305 companies participated, extending 500 offers, including 43 international ones. The highest domestic salary package reached 90 lacs per annum, while the median salary for 4-year UG courses was 21 lacs per annum. Top recruiters included industry leaders such as Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Goldman Sachs, Cognizant, and Qualcomm. These figures highlight IIT Hyderabad's commitment to facilitating excellent career opportunities for its students.
Infrastructure: IIT Hyderabad's 576-acre campus features sustainable architecture, single-occupancy hostels with radiant cooling, diverse dining options, and modern sports facilities. The college has a well-equipped gym, 24/7 medical services, banking, and a supermarket. It ensures a holistic student experience.
Faculty: Faculty members are nice for the chemical engineering branch as if they have experience of around 20- 35 years. They graduate from different IITs and Ph.D. scholars are more. I would say that the faculty members of the chemical engineering branch are the best. IITs stand on its own.
Other: I chose the chemical engineering branch because of my interest in it and as I was preferred it has good opportunities in the coming future.

Review of IIT Hyderabad - Indian Institute of Technology.
Placements: Placements are very good at IIT Hyderabad. In 2022, almost 95% of students who applied for placements were placed. The highest salary package offered was 65 LPA. The lowest salary package offered was 10 LPA and the average salary package offered was 21 LPA. Top recruiting companies such as Apple, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Salesforce, Oracle, etc., visited our campus. Top roles like SDE (software developer engineer), data scientist, and management roles were offered.
Infrastructure: IIT Hyderabad is a new-age IIT among all the other IITs. The infrastructure of the college is very good and modern. Construction is always going on and new buildings are coming up for every department. It has every facility like labs, a library, swimming pools, sports grounds, canteens, etc. The food served in the mess is not very good. I belong to North India, so I don't like South Indian food much. The food is also available at the canteen.
Faculty: IIT Hyderabad follows a fractal curriculum, i. e., the semester is divided into some small courses and long courses. The assessment for the courses is divided into parts, like the mid-sem exams and end-sem exams. Teachers are very helpful. Most of the teachers are highly qualified and have their Ph. Ds from reputed universities. There is a grading system followed in the college, which is mostly relative and sometimes absolute.

My experience in college is good. Everything is fine with no remarks.
Placements: In 2023, approximately 58% of Chemical Engineering students secure job offers, with the highest package reaching 41 LPA, the median at 20 LPA, and the average at 21 LPA. In the year 2022, we got 84% placements the highest package at 33 LPA and the average at 19 LPA. 50% of students get internships approximately. Students secured positions at Microsoft, BPCL, and others and were engaged with research under professors.
Infrastructure: Facilities they provide are pretty good and the infrastructure is awesome. We get single-room occupancy. The food is okay, quite good for South Indians but not for North Indians. The canteen is pretty decent. Medical and sports were superb and there is no remark on them.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and they give a lot of knowledge to us. The teaching quality is good. The curriculum is relevant to us. The semester is okay a little bit tough. We should get more than 50% in exams to pass. Teachers who teach us were highly qualified ones.
Other: We have a lot of fests and enjoy on campus, but the point is that many people did not attend the events, was a low crowd for some events. I wish to give more practical knowledge to get better improve. We get a lot of scholarships in the sem 1. We do a lot of extracurricular activities and we have a lot of time to read, play, and enjoy life on campus.

Highly satisfied with the dynamic curriculum and fractals system that helps you take any course.
Placements: About 50% of the people (2020 passing out batch) from chemical engineering are placed by December 2019. The highest salary package offered would be 45 LPA. The lowest salary package offered would be 8 LPA. I'm not sure about the average salary because a lot of people are yet to be placed. Some of the top companies are Microsoft, HSBC, Goldman Sachs, BPCL, Adobe, Honeywell, etc. They offered roles such as process engineer, design engineer, software developer, data analyst. About 30% of them got internships at companies like Microsoft, BPCL, etc. The rest of them had done projects under world-class professors in the college. Some of them even went to Japan/US to be research interns in the top university of the world.
Infrastructure: We have 24x7 high-speed Wi-Fi access in the academic buildings. Labs are of high-end equipment where the college allows us to perform experiments on in the presence of a TA. Classrooms are all air-conditioned. We have a small library for now. The learning centre is still under construction, which would mostly be over by this semester. We have LAN ports in our hostel rooms which are even most faster. We have single rooms in the college right from 1st year, unlike some colleges where you can never think about single rooms. The hostel management is very attentive in addressing student issues and getting them done swiftly. We have Amul and Nescafe shops in the canteens and other contract-based food shops. Subway outlet is on its way. We have a 24x7 ambulance and doctor facility. We have recreational rooms where we can Netflix and chill with your buddies. We have long, never-ending roads to go for a walk. The campus is filled with trees. There are grounds and courts for almost all sports and games. You just have to find time to balance between your academic life and the other.
Faculty: Teachers here are all world-class who have done their PhDs in top universities of the world. They are filled with a bunch of experiences and knowledge about current trends in chemical engineering. They were the ones who taught us that chemical engineering should've been named process engineering as it has nothing to do with the former and everything to do with the latter. Chemical engineering has nothing to do with chemistry. The teachers are practical people, and often they talk about traditional science knowledge and current opportunities. The course curriculum is a dynamic curriculum which is amended by the queries and changes suggested by the students. It makes us do core courses right from the beginning of the course, which gives us a lot of time to dive into the world of chemical engineering. The fractal system allows us to take any course from any branch as you wish to. You have the flexibility to choose almost half of your courses. No curriculum in India can make students industry-ready, but this being a dynamic curriculum is improvising students every year on the path to become industry-ready.
Other: Like most people, I got the branch because of my JEE rank. The best things are the practical faculty who would motivate you and help you with almost anything. We had been doing a lot of advanced courses right from the first year. Even if we're ahead in the rat race, I wish they change it in the second year. A lot of events are conducted all over the year. Icebreakers, freshers night, treasure hunt, Photowalks, Inter IIT Meets, technical clubs, cultural clubs, sports, sports league, Inter-year league, Inter-Hostel League. You can get almost anything inside the college. There are a lot of meritorious scholarships being awarded.

Good academic and research supporting institute but infrastructure and facilities can be better.
Placements: In the chemical engineering of IITH, around 15 students were placed, but most of them were placed in non-core companies like IT field and software companies. Top recruiting companies like Tata Research and Development, Vedanta, etc., visited our campus. Some students went abroad for higher studies. The highest salary package offered in our course is not revealed. About 50-60% of students from our course went for internships. Some companies, like Reckitt Benckiser, BR Specialist, etc., visited our campus.
Infrastructure: We have a separate building for the chemical department, named as academic block A. Wi-Fi facility provided is very good. We also have a LAN connection in our hostel rooms and in some labs. Classrooms have centralised air-conditioners. We have only one library for the entire campus, which is not sufficient. Quality of the food in the mess is not great. Nescafe is available on our campus for the students. Other facilities, like medical and sports are good. We have an ambulance which takes students to the nearby hospital in an emergency.
Faculty: Faculty members helps students with many things. There is an advisory faculty for each department and for each batch who will guide students in the academics. Our course curriculum is a bit different compared to other institutes. We have a fractal academic system in which a semester is divided into 3 segments, and a course will be held in these segments according to their credit of that course. This system has both advantage and disadvantages. The disadvantages are if the course duration is being reduced from 1 semester to 1 segment, then the details and content of that course will soon be forgotten by the students.
Other: I have chosen this course because I was interested in it. If this course has a more experimental or industry-based experiment, then it would be great instead of many theory. Many events are organised in our college, like Ice Cream Night, DJ Night, Bonfire, etc. Elan and Vision is our college fest. Around 2,500 students are studying in college, including PhD and M.Tech students. There are many cultural and science tech clubs where students can join and have fun.
