It has excellent placements in 2022.
Placements: Almost 95% of students got placed or went for higher studies in our year. The highest package was approximately 80 LPA, the lowest was approximately 5 LPA, and the average was around 12 LPA. Top recruiting companies were Google, Uber, Microsoft, KLA Tencor, GS, JPMC, MTX, etc. Top roles offered were SWE, SDE, QA, MLE, etc.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure was good and it has undergone a massive upgrade. Free Wi-Fi was available in most locations, and it was fast. Labs were well-equipped, and classrooms were also good enough. The library was world-class, and you couldn't finish even 1% of the information available there in your term.
Faculty: Most professors were helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. They were able to clear our doubts quickly. Most of them were good. The course curriculum was a little outdated for the code portion, but it was modern enough.
Other: I chose the course out of self-interest. The best thing is the freedom of choice, with a lot of free credits offered to explore your interests in an exhaustive manner. They need to work on pedantic professors who don't give grades.

Unparalleled college experience in India.
Placements: I did not sit in placements since I wanted to pursue entrepreneurship. Most students got placed during placements and got pretty satisfactory placements. I think the average for our class was around 11-12 Lacs per annum CTC. Around 10% of students opted out for higher studies.
Infrastructure: Facilities are the best in the country. All labs were well-equipped. There was unlimited internet connectivity in hostels and departments. Most of the campus has Wi-Fi now. Hostels can be better in terms of room size and cleanliness of bathrooms. Mess food is average.
Faculty: Professors are very knowledgeable. But most professors are not good teachers and make topics unnecessarily complex. The students are smart enough to learn from books. The curriculum is quite deep. You will receive help if you ask for it. IIT gives you anything if you ask the right people.
