IIT Kanpur College review.
Placements: In our senior batch, 55 out of 70 students have secured placements so far, with an average package of 15 LPA as a base. The big names hiring include Microsoft, Intel, Flipkart, and Saplabs, among others. As for the roles, we are talking about SDE, data scientists, and cybersecurity engineers. The highest package is 60 LPA.
Infrastructure: The campus comprises all the required academic and research buildings, a central library, well-equipped labs, and classrooms that have Wi-Fi accessibility. In addition to this, students may use the residential facilities and dining halls. The hostel accommodation is generally considered satisfactory. The food in the mess is middling, and the health center is staffed with medical professionals who are there to help if someone falls sick.
Faculty: The teaching staff comprises faculty members who possess good qualifications and have sufficient knowledge. They are very creative in their activities, and this attracts listeners. They are using the method of storytelling and participating in discussions to explain the concepts. The curriculum is on point and perfectly suitable. Otherwise, students who are well-covered in the concepts are mostly good at finding ways to clear the exams.

All you need to know about IITK.

Faculty: IIT Kanpur has highly-qualified professors who are knowledgeable and helpful, though teaching quality varies by instructor.

Other: IIT Kanpur offers a vibrant campus life with fests like Antaragni, Techkriti, and Udghosh. The crowd is diverse and talented. Connectivity is decent, with Kanpur city nearby. Scholarships are available based on merit and need. Extracurriculars include tech clubs, cultural groups, and sports. The course is rigorous, but more industry exposure would help.

IIT Kanpur is about admission, campus, faculty, students, and exams.
Placements: This college provides placement facilities. Every year, the placement cell is organized for many departments of students. The college offers courses for both IT and non-IT jobs. Companies provide packages ranging from 4 LPA to 20 LPA for average students.
Infrastructure: This college provides good facilities such as fast Wi-Fi, Ethernet connections, labs, computers, CCTV, lifts, a campus canteen, and water purifier machines. Sports committees organize many sports and game tournaments, and gym facilities are also available.
Faculty: The course curriculum is relevant and good. But the college enforces many rules and regulations that students must follow compulsorily.

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.
