The best four years that I will spend.

Placements: I am from Chemical Engineering, and in my branch, around 80% of students get placed. The highest package offered is 50 LPA, the median is 21 LPA, and the lowest is 8 LPA. The top recruiting company from my branch is Microsoft, offering 50 LPA. The top roles offered are SDE, consulting, and data analytics roles.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi facility is great, and labs are a bit hectic, but the infrastructure is top-class. The library has an occupancy of around 500 students and is a three-storey building. The infrastructure of hostels is quite old, so in the beginning, it might be difficult to live as there is no AC. The food quality in the mess is better than that of any other engineering college. The health centre at IIT Kanpur provides medicine and treatment completely free of cost. The campus provides facilities for all sorts of games.

Faculty: Professors here are among the most educated in the world, having completed their Ph.D. from the best universities globally. There is no limit to the knowledge at IIT Kanpur. The semester exams are much more difficult than those of other IITs, and the grading here is also tough.

Other: I chose this branch because it is the only one I am getting according to my rank. The fest is the best thing here, as we enjoy amazing concerts by renowned artists like Sonu Nigam, Badshah, Ritviz, etc.

Dissatisfied because of faculty members.

Placements: The highest package is 9 LPA, and the average package is 7 LPA. The lowest package is 4 LPA. About 60% of the students got placed in our batch. Many reputed companies reached our college campus for recruitment, and several students got internships.

Infrastructure: Classrooms and labs are average and not cleaned on a daily basis. The quality of food available in the mess and canteen is not acceptable. Wi-Fi facilities are only for faculty members. The hostel rooms are not so comfortable and very small. Sports and medical facilities are available.

Faculty: Teachers are very qualified and knowledgeable but they are not much helpful. They became angry if students asked about their doubts. The teaching quality is good but the behaviour of faculty members is not acceptable. Only few curriculum activities are conducted.
