Extremely satisfied with my college, it is one of the best.
Placements: About 85% of students get placed in Biological Sciences and Bioengineering, and the rest decide to go for higher education. I think the highest has gone around 50 LPA, and the average is 25 LPA. Top recruiting companies include Microsoft, Google, Uber, Zomato, ITC Limited, etc. Internships are tough, as there are less biotech companies, and non-core may be difficult, but they require skills. Top roles offered are Software Developer, Product Manager, Entrepreneur, etc.
Infrastructure: The PK Kelkar Library is the heart of IIT Kanpur and is considered one of the most beautiful libraries. The lecture halls are well-maintained. Wi-Fi is available in every corner of the campus, and the labs are also very nice. There are 15 halls of residence, out of which, Hall 6 and Hall 4 are for female students and are very well-maintained, and the food is also good. Apart from education, the cultural and sports facilities are also well-maintained.
Faculty: Teachers are good, very helpful, and qualified from the best universities of the world. The teaching quality is the best. In academics, IIT Kanpur is considered one of the most difficult due to its maths courses. But, grading is okay and sometimes relatively absolute. Overall, courses are of all types.
Other: It's everyone's dream to become an IITian, especially from one of the older IITs.

A short review of IIT Kanpur.
Placements: As per phase one data, 1000 students get placed which is a very good number. The highest salary package offered is 3 crores per annum and the lowest salary package offered is 5 LPA. Despite the branch, we get equal chance for placement. The top roles offered are buisness analyst, data scientist, data analyst, software engineer, and AI engineer.
Infrastructure: BSBE department has its labs and buildings like BSBE building and MFCM building. Facilities are very good. Wi-Fi facility is available for 24 hours. Room facilities are very good and mess food is also very hygienic and good.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and approachable via mail or in person. Every single teacher at IIT Kanpur is well-knowledgeable and highly qualified. Course curriculum is a little tough but yet helpful. There are 2 exams in one semester, the mid-semester exam and the end-semester exam. Content and grades completely depend on teachers.
Other: I chose this course according to my rank in JEE Advanced. Firstly I thought that I should drop the course as it does not have much scope but later I got to know that despite our branch we get placement opportunities evenly. Udghosh is one of the largest sports festivals in India organized by IIT Kanpur. IIT Kanpur gives importance to sports.

Our college infrastructure and faculties are excellent. Placements are overall very good.
Placements: Overall placement in our branch are less because very few companies comes for our branch students that's why. Students go to research line and most students go to technical job by learning coding because some students don't want to research or may be some financial problem.
Infrastructure: About facilities and infrastructure of any branch in IITK are excellent. We get full 5G speed wifi inside and outside classrooms, labs and library. Our classrooms are excellent with comfortable chairs and AC's inside classrooms. About hostel, it's also very good. our hostels also includes very nice mess, canteen, salon and grocery shops also.
Faculty: Our professors are highly qualified from different foreign countries, no doubt about their knowledge. We have quiz every alternate weeks. Professors also conduct presentations, assignments. We have mid semester exam at the middle of the course and end semester exam at the end of the course.

Satisfied with the placements and infrastructure, but dissatisfied with the professors.
Placements: The placements are good, with every child getting placed. The seniors help and cooperate with us in placements. Also, we can get help from professors and alumni during placements. Top recruiters are HCL, Microsoft, Google, Larson & Toubro, Ola, Uber, Zomato, etc.
Infrastructure: The course is slightly difficult, with a lot of classes. The classes start in the morning at 8 AM and may extend till 5 pm if there are labs as well. Wi-Fi is available on the entire campus. Classrooms and libraries are also very big. The hostel is also nice. The food quality is good.
Faculty: The professors are a bit lazy and unreliable. They can take tests any day. They are knowledgeable but lack teaching skills. They try to make the course more difficult for students by not giving them the right materials. However, the course can be cleared if we study regularly.

Good and bad points of IITK.
Placements: In general, placements at IIT Kanpur are excellent, but this year, due to the recession, they were not as good. The average CTC of my branch, Biological Sciences and Bioengineering, is 22 LPA, and the median is 20 LPA, with a placement percentage of around 85% because around 25 out of 30 students SAT for placements get placed. If you LOOK at the branch only from a placement point of view, then Biological Sciences and Bioengineering (BSBE) have better placement than other core branches.
Infrastructure: In IIT Kanpur, there is a completely different building for our branch located in the Academic area. The department building is well-equipped with centralized AC and 5G Wi-Fi service. Fun fact: Our department building has coffee machines from which you can make your own coffee whenever you want for free. In the first year, all students are allotted Hall 13. In Hall 13, there are double and triple rooms which are given by lottery. Hostel rooms have decent space; you will not get AC here, but all other necessities are provided. The canteen is subsidized here, and the quality of food in both the mess and canteen is very nice. Sports infrastructure is also great here; our campus has one Main ground where cricket and other athletic events take place, one football ground, one hockey ground, 5 badminton courts, etc.
Faculty: Faculty members are very qualified; most of them have done their higher education from foreign premier institutes. So, from a knowledge perspective, they are well-equipped, but sometimes they fail to make us understand concepts because they get too deep, which more than 90% of students are not able to understand. The course curriculum is pretty outdated, but they are now starting to add relevant topics to the curriculum. Semester exams are very tough here at IIT K; that's the reason why it is called the IIT with the toughest academics, which gets even tougher because of some professors who give good grades very rarely.
Other: I had an interest in Biology already, and according to my rank in JEE ADVANCE, I thought this college and this branch were perfect for me. The best thing about my course is that it is not as difficult as other courses, and you get a good amount of free time to explore. ANTARAGINI is the cultural fest of IITK. TECHKRITI is the Technical fest of IITK. UDHGOSH is the Sports fest of IITK. All fests last for 3 days.
