My experience at IIT Kharagpur - Indian Institute of Technology.

Placements: Placement opportunities in our department vary according to our interests. In core opportunities, the number of companies visiting is low and has high criteria for recruitment. Non-core opportunities are plentiful based on our expertise and good credentials.
