Computer Science and Engineering at IIT Kharagpur.
Placements: The placements are really good. Almost everyone gets placed, and a significant portion of them get into HFTs that are extremely high-paying. Roles that people from CSE are mostly hired for are quant and SDE, along with data, etc. Overall, placements are quite good.
Infrastructure: The course infrastructure is sufficiently good. However, the hostel infrastructure is just terrible. The food is absolutely atrocious, the rooms are not up to the mark, and there are several other issues. However, the college infrastructure is decent enough and sufficient for the scope of the course.
Faculty: Teachers are quite helpful and knowledgeable (at least most of them are). The course curriculum is fairly relevant and helps build the necessary foundation for students in the field of computer science. Passing exams is actually pretty easy here. Almost everyone passes.
Other: The main reason for my choice was the college, and also Computer Science and Engineering is one of the most in-demand fields right now. Campus life is good enough. There are fests and other activities, and something or the other is always going on.

Excellent academic rigour and legacy of IIT Kharagpur.
Placements: Around 80-85 percent of students in the Mining branch get placed. The highest packages (often more than 40 LPA-50 LPA) usually come from software or quant roles. The core mining companies like Coal India, Tata Steel, and Vedanta offer solid packages ranging from 10 LPA to 18 LPA. Many of us also get internships in the third year with some students heading to foreign universities or research labs. If you want to go into data Science or finance you'll need to prepare on your own but the IIT KGP tag definitely opens those doors.
Infrastructure: The Department of Mining Engineering is one of the oldest and best-equipped in India. We have some great labs and specialized equipment that you won't find elsewhere. As for the hostels (Halls of Residence), they are decent. While some of the holder halls like RP or RK have a vintage feel and the newer ones are quite good. Wi-Fi is generally fast across the campus and the library (central library) is a lifesaver during exams. The mess food is okay it's typical hostel food but there are plenty of eateries like night canteens to keep you going.
Faculty: The professors here are world-class. Most of them have decades of industry experience and are very approachable if you show interest in their research. The curriculum is definitely relevant to the industry especially with the focus on modern mining tech and safety. The exams are quite tough. You can't just study the night before and expect a 9 CGPA. The pass percentage is high because the students are smart but the grading can be competitive.
Other: I chose Mining because of the prestige of IIT KGP and the unique opportunities in the core sector. The best thing about this course is the niche expertise you gain which is highly valued in specific global industries. If you are joining be prepared for a bit of a remote location but the campus itself is a world of its own.

A beautiful campus - IIT Kharagpur.
Placements: Placement is very good here. Almost all of the students sit here for the placements. There are actually 3 types of people B.Tech, Dual degree B.Tech and M.Tech, and the IP law students and research scholars. Last time, the average package was about 14 LPA, the highest package was 1 crore per annum, and the lowest package was 8 LPA. Almost 97 percent of the success rate is there for the placements for those who sit here for the placements. Top recruiting companies are Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and Flipkart, opening their roles for SDE interns.
Infrastructure: Here are 3 shared rooms with good space and good mess food. Also, very good night canteens are there, which are mostly open from 10:00 PM to 4:00 AM. All hostels have the facilities for all the sports like football, volleyball, basketball, and cricket. Also, we have a central hospital, B.C. Roy Hospital, where we can go in case of illness.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and always help us to solve the doubts and any kind of hostel issues too. Their teaching quality is great and the course always makes you very much industry-ready. The pass percentage is more than 95 percent. Exams are not too difficult for the students to pass, and easy to study too.

A land of opportunities where legacy meets innovation.
Placements: In Biotechnology almost 70 percent of students got placed. The average package is 6 LPA, the highest is near 12 LPA, the lowest normally differs. Serum Institute of India and Cipla do hire at IITKGP. More than 12 percent of students got an internships. Roles offered are Junior Researcher, Research Associate, and Bioprocess Engineer.
Infrastructure: The department being one of the most heavily funded and having state-of-the-art technology in the labs students get to work with reliable and modern instruments and labs. The infrastructure offered for the students in the course of biotechnology is very good and one of the best in the country. The quality of food in hostels is fine not too good not dreadful either. The medical facilities are free for students. There are a lot of grounds for each sport and all the sports and games are taught as part of the course that comes under extra academic activities.
Faculty: Some teachers are very good but some are strict and explain less. The medium of instruction is English for all the courses. The course is somewhat relevant and there are some parts which do feel irrelevant. The semester exams are fairly easy. The curriculum has electives that the student can choose according to their interests.
Other: The campus hosts very big fests with very renowned artists. It is the biggest IIT. The alumni connection is very good with IIT Kharagpur having one of the strongest and most connected Alma Mater across the globe. Encourages job-creator mindset over a job-finder. Extra-curricular activities are included in the course and encourage the student to perform well in fields such as sports, cultural activities, etc. There is a wide range of societies for the students to find like-minded people and grow together.
