All about Masters at IIT Indore.

Placements: In M.Sc. Biotechnology, there are very few placements for students. The average is 4-6 LPA, which is very low according to IIT. Approximately 40-50% of students get placed in companies. Most students prefer Ph.D. due to the low amount offered by companies.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities are all very good. Each classroom and lab is air-conditioned. The hostel facility is very nice. The washrooms and rooms are clean. Campus life is very good. The mess provides good quality food. The sports complex has a badminton court, swimming pool, and gym facilities.

Faculty: The teachers are very approachable. Their teaching style is good. All faculty members have ample knowledge in their field as well as in other fields. Exams are based on the portions taught in class. The exam level is moderate to difficult. There is relatively fair marking for results.

Other: The fest, sports, and other facilities are good. Everything is great except for placements. Practical knowledge is far better here.

Satisfied with the overall quality of the college .

Placements: Less than 40% of students were being placed. The average package was 50,000. PW Coaching Center and many more approached our college for the job of teaching after a Masters. No one got the internship opportunity. The top role, or the only role we were offered, is the teaching role.

Infrastructure: Full marks on infrastructure and facilities with high-class labs and classrooms are there. All the extra facilities provided are up to par. Hostels are clean and the hostel staff is really helpful. We do have good-quality food in canteens and mess. Do get regular mess food checked. .

Faculty: Faculty do not give their best but do make efforts to provide us with a with a good education. We need a better education course system as most of the courses in our subject need a lot of time to be completed so we need to have a lot of time to grab the things. For that, we need a much more organised syllabus.

Overall IIT Indore is the best among all new IITs. You can join this prestigious institute.

Placements: Around 89 students participate in placements in college with a number of 51 companies. Around 21 are the new recruiters, and the number of offered was 101. The highest salary package offered was 16.06 LPA, and the average salary package offered was 6 LPA. Top recruiting sectors are computer science & information technologies. The highest recruiting branch is a computer science & engineering and the highest recruiting profile/function are software developer/software development engineering and graduate engineer trainees. The company that is making the highest offer is in computer science & engineering department.

Infrastructure: The construction is going at a very good pace. All the labs are shifted to the main campus at Simrol. The IIT-Indore Simrol campus is almost ready. All the academic, sports, research & others are shifted to the main campus itself. The hostels are also present on the campus. Only the fourth year and mat be M.Tech students stay outside the campus which are provided by IIT itself in places like Silver Springs, etc. Rooms have a premium 2/3BHK, and Silver Springs is probably one of the best.

Faculty: Faculty members in our college are experienced. They have mastered their field. If you are interested in pure mathematics, come to IIT Indore. The course curriculum is designed for exams like NET and GATE. You can also convert your M.Sc into M.Sc and PhD dual degrees in 3 semesters of M.Sc.

Other: IIT Indore is like a small village, and people are bound together by strong emotional ties unlike those in larger institutes where a crowd of 2000 is just scattered and segregated into a bunch of students. Here we live as a small happy family. There is no distinction between a senior and a junior. Teachers are easily approachable, and everyone is special in his or her way among the batch mates. Being a new IITian it allows you to discover yourself by exposing you to everything new.
