Satisfied with faculty and industrial support

Placements: The placement scenario in IIT-KGP is on an average, although B.Tech placements are good. But for M.Tech, it is the worst. Only 40% students got placed in recent years, so they have only one option that is Ph.D or preparation for PSUs through GATE. Otherwise, software placements are also available. There are very few departments which get only 30% job in B.Tech, so it totally depends on the department and the current year situation. I want to give one example i.e. if one B.Tech pass out from here gets a job of 6 lakhs annually, then what is the difference between IIT and any college other than IIT.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure-wise, IIT-KGP is far better than any other institute. It is well-known that the central library is one of the best libraries in Asia. Hostel facilities are very good and there are 100-bed facilities with the B.C. Roy Technology Hospital. The entire campus is fully Wi-Fi connected. I want to say nothing about the food because West Bengal is famous for its food, so it is quite expected that food will be good and tasty. You can get everything within the campus and the price is also subsidised.

Faculty: The quality of faculty members is very high and impressive. Here the maximum teaching support is digital. Very motivated faculty members are there. They have a good idustrial connection both within India and outside. All classrooms are fully air-conditioned and digital. The course curriculum is as per any standard university.

Other: I am pursuing PhD in this institute for last 4 years in ECE dept. and this is my final month before submitting the thesis. My guide was very helpful and kind. Moreover after PhD from here, it is easy to get placed in any R&D in India and abroad. You can also open your own consultancy firm if you can arrange some capital. One can also join many NITs and IIITs and also IITs. In addition, you won't feel bore in the campus life here as it provides all basic amenities for one's life.
