B.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering - Batch of 2028
4.6
5Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money
Mother of all IITs - IIT Kharagpur.
Placements: During the current placement, there were 1000+ offers in just two days. In my department, Mechanical Engineering, about 70% of students get placed. The average placement package is 17-18 LPA, the highest going upto 50-55 LPA. If we talk about the maximum package offered, it sometimes crosses 2 crores.
Infrastructure: State-of-the-art infrastructure is present for all the students. Labs, classes and libraries are best. The hostels can be a little disappointing, the food there is not that good, and it will take time to adjust to the taste of the mess food. But you can always find night canteens and restaurants inside the campus if you want to treat yourself to good food.
Faculty: The professors here are the best in their fields. Every one of them is highly qualified and has studied at the best universities in the world. Well, their approachability and bonding with the students can be debatable, as it depends on the proof of whether he is friendly or not. The curriculum is relevant, after all, it's an IIT. The semester exams are fairly difficult, they test us on all aspects of the subject.
Other: For me, choosing this course was very easy. I was always very interested in physics and mathematics, so mechanical engineering is a department that has the best of both worlds. Talking about the fests of our college, these are the best days of our campus life.

Its the top college in India, you have to qualify for this.
Placements: The placements in IITKP are very good, as a lot of companies visit due to the placements. The B.Tech students are available to sit for placements in their 4th year, while the dual degree students are available to sit for placements in their 5th year. In my course, the highest package in general lies around 1.5 crores per annum, and the lowest package lies around 10 to 20 LPA. There are five profiles that students choose during placements. The software development is the one I am choosing, and the companies offer, on average, around 20LPA.
Infrastructure: The hostel facilities in IITKGP are not up to the mark. The hostels are mostly run based on Hall tempo and bonding. The library here is also one of the biggest libraries of all the IITs, and it has a lot of rooms where you can sit and study. It stays open till 12 o'clock. Almost all of the books are available in the library that you want to read, or it has access to the national digital library, and you can read anything that you want. The facilities of technological aspects are also really good.
Faculty: The faculty members here are really approachable moreover, the relationship between the faculty members and the students is very good. The exams are held on a semester basis. There are two main exams for theory, which are mid semester and end semester examinations, where for most of the courses the end semester examination holds a weightage of 50 percent and the mid sem holds about 30 percent. The rest of the 20 percent are on the hands of the professors.

Absolutely amazing institute because of the faculty, and placements.
Placements: A very high percentage of students get placed in this course 88%. The highest and lowest packages for my course are between 12 LPA to 4 LPA. Top companies are also recruiting students from my course. A high percentage of students have internships in big companies like Zebronics.
Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure available in my department are excellent. Wi-Fi, classrooms, and the library are all available. The quality and facilities in the hostel are very good. The food made in the college is not tasty. Medical and sports facilities are available in the college.
Faculty: Teachers are very qualified and knowledgeable. They have good teaching qualities. The course curriculum is relevant, but students are not industry-ready. The semester exams in my college are very difficult. The pass percentage in exams is 40% in all subjects.

An engineering life at IIT Kharagpur is very joyful and good.
Placements: 85 to 90 percent of students got placed in my course. The highest package ranges from 20-24 LPA. The lowest package ranges from 4-5 LPA. The average package ranges from 8-10 LPA. Top recruiting companies for my course are Accenture, TCS, Infosys, etc. 70-77 percent of students got internships. Top roles offered are software engineer, project associate, analyst, etc.
Infrastructure: Many facilities are available in our college. Wi-Fi is very good and useful for our academic career. High-speed Wi-Fi is also available at our central library. Hostel facilities are available and comfortable. Hostel food is satisfactory, but it is not good. There are good games to play, like cricket, carrom, etc.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, technically qualified, and knowledgeable. Their teaching quality is very good. They are teaching theoretical knowledge and practical skills. Semester exams are very difficult and tricky. In physics, the weave topic is difficult. I don't know about the pass percentage now.
Other: I chose this course on my own because I'm not interested in coding and in core subjects. Best part of our course is the balance of practical labs and theoretical depth. Events and fests are not very enjoyable.

Review of IIT Kharagpur.
Placements: Around 80 percent of students get placed in IIT Kharagpur M.Tech Hydraulics. The average package is around 13 to 14 LPA, and around 70-75% of students get internships in firms/companies. Top roles are hydraulics engineer, research and development engineer, etc.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of IIT Kharagpur is very good, as it has high-speed Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi), and it also has many labs that are very good and well-maintained by the college. The mess food is also very good and hygienic, and the hostels are also well-maintained.
Faculty: Teachers at IIT Kharagpur are very nice and good for students, as many of them hold PhDs or master's degrees in their field. They are well-experienced in their respective fields, and they make the students industry-ready, so they don't have to suffer.

Dissatisfied because of my expectations by college.
Placements: 20% of students are placed in on-campus placements. The highest package is 50 LPA, the lowest is 10 LPA, and the average is around 18 LPA. Core placement companies like Airbus, Being, Rolls Royce, Altair, etc., visit the campus. 10-15% of students secure internships. Roles like Structures Engineer and Control Engineer are available.
Infrastructure: Most of the classes are held in other buildings (not in the department). For labs, we have to visit the department. The Wi-Fi facility, labs, classrooms, and department library are well-maintained and clean. The same can be said for the hostels, but the food available in the mess is just okay. We have one of the best sports facilities and good medical facilities.
Faculty: Professors are very well-qualified and insightful. The teaching quality varies across professors, but most of them are good at teaching. The course helps build core knowledge, but we have to work on our own to make ourselves industry-proficient by seeking help from seniors and professors. The semester exams are tough, and the pass percentage is around 90%.
Other: There is no particular reason for me to select the course. I just got interested in it during the counseling period. The best thing about the course is that it provides most of the mechanical engineering knowledge along with aerodynamics, which is quite popular in other countries. The number of companies coming for placements is low, and the same can be said for the core placement percentage. Most of the events are held in January (two fests, Kshitij, and Springs Fest), and they are quite enjoyable with friends.
