IIT Kharagpur has the best placements.

Placements: Our IIT provides the best placements. IIT college placement is good; almost 100 percent of students are placed every year. There were many roles offered to the students at that college. From my batch and my senior batch, almost 92 percent were placed. So this college is good and auspicious. The highest package is 53 LPA, the lowest package is 7.4 LPA, and the average package is 13 LPA.

Infrastructure: It's really great that the cafeteria food inside the college is budget-friendly. You can go to places like Domino's, Subways, and Nirula to have south Indian food, northern food, etc. People can even go outside the campus to places like Ball or other cafes to grab a bite or something. It's really up to you what kind of food you want to eat.

Faculty: The faculty is good. Most of the teachers are from reputed colleges and are Ph.D.-qualified. The teachers use a variety of methods to help students learn. The teachers are friendly and approachable. The quality of the teaching is very good. The curriculum is fair and somewhat relevant.

I'm satisfied with faculty and good exposure.

Placements: Around 80% of students get placed in our college and others went for higher studies. The highest salary package offered is 28 LPA, the lowest salary package is 4 LPA, and the average salary package is 13 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Tata Steel and Goldman Sachs. Amazon, Microsoft, and Google recruit students based on their coding skills. B.Tech students have to do internships compulsorily in their third year. Most of them do internships at Tata Steel.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available in our college. Classrooms are large and spacious. Labs are modernised with all the equipment. It has a central library in the main building which is the largest in Asia where students can find all sorts of books. Hostels are well facilitated but there is a shortage of electricity and water sometimes in summer. Food served in the mess is good in quantity and is healthy. BC Roy Hospital is provided for students. All the sports facilities are provided like football, athletics, volleyball, swimming, etc.

Faculty: Teachers in our college are friendly and knowledgeable. Most of them have done research work and many publications. Teaching quality is up to the mark. The course curriculum is relevant but it should be upgraded with courses like machine learning, artificial intelligence, and data science. Semester exams are moderately difficult as they majorly check the critical thinking of students. The grading system is relative. The pass percentage is 35%, but it may go down sometimes depending on the difficulty of the paper and relative performance.

Other: I chose this course to work at Tata Steel. This course load is less compared to other branches. Many events take place on campus frequently. Springfest is the cultural fest organised in January. Celebrities are invited to give their performances. Technical fest named Kshitij is organsied in our college. Ashneer Grover was invited this year. Departmental fests are organised in our college.

It is one of the best colleges in India to spend four years of quality time.

Placements: The percentage of students who were placed was around 99% in 2021. The highest salary package was around 17 LPA, and the average is about 8 to 9 LPA. Top recruiting companies include Google, Amazon, Vedanta, Oyo, Honeywell, etc. Many students apply for internships in their third year, and many companies hire them.

Infrastructure: All facilities are available in the college itself and we rarely need to go out of campus for any needs. The infrastructure other than some hall buildings is well maintained. The library is fully equipped with air conditioners, and labs are good. Sports and games are good. The food is decent in both the mess and canteen. All buildings have a high-speed internet connection.

Faculty: All teachers are highly qualified and very knowledgeable about the courses. They teach well. Semester exams are not so hard and can be passed without any hard preparation. The pass percentage is around 99%.

Other: I got this course by my rank in JEE Advanced 2021, and I preferred this college and opted for metallurgy. Currently, I am a fresher and I am optimistic about this course. One thing I got to know from seniors about this course is that there is a little problem for research purposes. I was in my home when our festival was held, and they managed quite well to celebrate it online. There were very exciting things happening on campus. The campus is well connected and has plenty of areas to watch. The campus has lush green vegetation and is lively. There are plenty of scholarships to apply for and many extracurricular activities like sports, drama, robotics, etc. There are many societies to join.

My stay at Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur.

Placements: The placements will be very nice if you are in one of the top departments. The students of non-circuital departments have to thrive and do a lot of hard work in order to achieve or grab the offer. They have in their mind to develop an all-rounder sort of personality and should be constantly working for their goals.

Infrastructure: Labs are closed as of now and would be active in the upcoming semesters. We have lost many lab sessions because of the pandemic and as the situation is getting normal, the students won't face many problems. The central library is huge and overwhelming. It is the best spot on campus to study well. Wi-Fi is of good quality.

Faculty: The curriculum is dynamic in our college helping the students with their future endeavors. If he is interested in pursuing non-core jobs, he will shape his career in such a way that the curriculum is flexible for him, and he could take additional courses that would help him in his path. The professors would guide you through ups and downs in your path.
