All sports facilities are present with proper grounds, and a coach and health centre are present where all medical facilities are available. Hostel rooms are average. The mess food is also good.

Faculty: Qualified faculty members are there for every course and they are well-versed in their field. The curriculum is relevant. Student may find academics a bit hectic here.

Other: The campus is very big, so there are a lot of things to explore. The placement percentage is good in the course and a lot of companies come to hire chemical branch is a bit hectic here, we get to study a lot of courses during second and third year.

IIT Kanpur Campus. You will definitely learn a lot from your 4 years here. Explore the campus.

Placements: For Civil Engineering branch at IIT Kanpur, 65 to 85 percent of students get placements. The average package is 16-20 LPA. The highest packages reach much higher, like around 40 LPA. BPCL and Larsen & Toubro are top recruiters, along with various consulting or software firms. For internships, 50 to 70 percent of students usually get opportunities in core engineering or other sectors. Internships depend on how you perform there. Some students even get internships in the 1st year.

Infrastructure: Facilities for academics are top-notch, except for the Wi-Fi. The hostel for 1st-year students is quite a mess. You have to share with 2-3 people in less space. The mess food is not that tasty, but it is of a wide variety. You will definitely feel reluctant about it after 1 or 2 months.

Faculty: Professors are really very helpful. You can ask doubts during their lectures. They are also available outside the lecture hall once the class is over. They also have dedicated office hours for students. Tutors are assigned to a section of students to clarify doubts regarding the assignment problems given to students for homework. The pass percentage is average, and some courses have very bad pass percentages. It is around 35% for some courses. Professors are really good, except for some boring instructors.

Other: The best thing is that you always have a second option other than JEE Advanced to take up your favorite branch, but it requires discipline. It is not that hard, but it requires dedication.

B.Sc. in Economics - Batch of 2028

5.0Placements4.0Infrastructure5.0Faculty5.0Crowd & Campus Life4.0Value for Money

Home away from home, though getting high CPI here is a bit tough.

Placements: Placements for Economics are honestly top-tier almost on par with the core engineering branches if you maintain a decent CPI. Around 85 to 90 percent of the students get placed easily while the rest usually go for higher studies or off-campus research. The average package is around 18 LPA-20 LPA with the highest offers going up to more than 45 LPA for quant and high-frequency trading roles. Massive companies like Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, Barclays, McKinsey, and WorldQuant come to the campus for both summer internships and final placements. Most people end up getting internships by their 3rd year in roles like data analytics.

Infrastructure: The campus infrastructure is amazing. We have high-speed Wi-Fi everywhere from hostels to the lecture hall complex (LHC). The computer labs are loaded with the software we need for economic modelling. P K Kelkar library is great and a quiet place to study during midterms. Hostel life is a huge part of IITK. The rooms are decent, and the mess food is actually manageable compared to what you hear about other colleges. You have late-night canteens open till 2:00 or 3:00 AM in almost every Hall. Sports facilities are massive, we have a proper running track and an olympic-size pool.

Faculty: Professors are incredibly smart and know their stuff inside out though some can be a bit strict with grading. The teaching quality is quite rigorous. The Economics curriculum here isn't just theory it is very mathematical and focuses heavily on econometrics and data analysis which makes it highly relevant if you want to go into data science or financial analytics.

IIT Kanpur - A tough balance of stressful academics, stress-relieving events, and campus crowd.

Placements: Many students with good grades get placed. Around 70 percent of the total participating students get placed on campus, and a large number of students are placed in top companies. The average package offered ranges from 17-18 LPA. Top roles are offered in the software development sector and multiple core branch positions.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure in hostels is pretty good. Academic facilities are well-built. We have individual infrastructure for all sports played across Inter IIT. Wi-Fi speed is pretty decent across the campus. The canteen facilities and the food facilities are well-managed and organised. There are multiple fast food outlets that serve great food. They also serve food late at night.

Faculty: Faculty members here are good. They are well-trained, and they know a lot in their field of interest. The course curriculum is definitely pretty hard here. Semester exams are pretty hard, and the grading part is pretty harsh. Although student councils try well to get the professors to do better grading, if students are struggling too much.

Other: Apart from academics, everything here feels like bliss. After coming here, students will surely know why it is one of the top institutes of India. Plenty of extracurricular activities are happening all the time on campus. Events and fests organised are great here. Plenty of scholarships are available at this college for students who are in need.

B.Sc. in Mathematics and Scientific Computing - Batch of 2027

4.0Placements5.0Infrastructure4.0Faculty4.0Crowd & Campus Life5.0Value for Money

Best internships and placements, good faculty. Good infrastructure and facilities.

Placements: My branch is the second-best branch among the circuital branches after Computer Science in terms of placements. More than 50% of students from my branch get placed. The highest package offered is around 50 LPA, while the average and median packages generally remain around 20 LPA. Around 40% of students from my branch get internships. The top role offered is Software Developer (SD). The highest packages are offered by Quant companies.

Infrastructure: Almost all facilities are available on the campus. We have canteens in every hall, along with Subway, Starbucks, Domino's, and other food outlets on campus. The Wi-Fi speed is good, and connectivity is available throughout the campus. The food quality in the mess is above average. Some days of the week, it is really good, while on other days, it is just bearable. However, it depends on the hall you are staying in and the HEC. We have sports grounds on the campus, including football grounds, cricket grounds, and other facilities in each hall.

Faculty: Professors are very well qualified for the courses they teach, and they are knowledgeable. Most of them have completed their Ph.D. from foreign universities. The course curriculum is based on pure mathematics and its applications in scientific computing. However, it remains more focused on the pure mathematics side. It could be made more relevant to the job market. Semester exams are generally moderate to difficult. Professors' grading is strict. The pass percentage depends on the professor.

Other: Since childhood, I have been interested in pure mathematics, which is the reason I chose this course. The best thing about my course is its curriculum. If you really want to study pure mathematics, then it is perfect for you. It includes subjects like Linear Algebra, Real Analysis, Abstract Algebra, Set Theory, Pure Logic, Topology, Complex Analysis, Differential Equations, and more. IIT Kanpur's campus culture is one of the best. Three major cultural fests are organized here: Antaragni, Udghosh, and Techkriti. Many events are conducted related to sports, the job market, business, startups, and other fields. Many scholarships are also offered, and BS students can apply for the INSPIRE Scholarship.

IIT Kanpur College review.

Placements: Every single student who went for placement ended up getting a spot in coaching institutes like Physics Wallah and Prutor, with packages typically ranging from about 6 to 7 LPA. When it comes to math, it seems like a lot of folks are looking to pursue their Ph.D., whether in India or overseas, if we are talking placements, Statistics is actually doing better than Mathematics in our department.

Infrastructure: Talking about the colleges infrastructure, it includes all the basics, clean water supply, spacious Science labs, an auditorium for cultural events, and a playground for sports, there is also a well-stocked library and tidy classrooms. Students can take advantage of transportation and on-campus housing if they do not have their own rides, the mess is kept clean, and while the food is pretty good, I think adding more choices that students like would be a bonus.

Faculty: The faculty and staff do a solid job here. First-year classes felt a lot like high school, which made the transition smoother, the college does a nice job recognizing academic achievements and really goes out of its way to celebrate the top performers.
