I'm not much satisfied with the placements offered, course curriculum and hostel facilities.

Placements: The highest salary package offered was 9 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered was 3 LPA. Top recruiting companies/institutes were Byju's, Syngene, etc. Around 3-4 students got internships from our course, but they got in some research institutes like IISC, etc. Associate trainee and associate faculty members are top roles offered in our course.

Infrastructure: Facilities available in our department are good. There are various labs, average Wi-Fi and worst classrooms with the worst benches. There is no library. Hostel facilities are also average. Even you will feel like you are not staying in the hostel of an IIT.

Faculty: Teachers here are very knowledgeable and qualified, but they are not much helpful. The teaching quality has also been average. The curriculum was not relevant to the course. Semester exams were a little bit difficult.

I'm extremely satisfied and proud to be a student of IITM. It has good infrastructure & facilitiies.

Placements: IITM has a large number of students getting placed in top companies each year. The M.Sc chemistry students mostly get placed in the pharmaceutical, software, and educational sectors. Companies like Zydus, Cadila, Byju's, Unacademy, Flipkart, Trexquant, etc., are mostly involved in this regard.

Infrastructure: Our hostel has an inbuilt LAN port, which can be accessed if you have a LAN cable and it is to be renewed daily. The department building has a Wi-Fi network that can be accessed by LDAP credentials. Classrooms are closed for now at least, considering the impact of COVID-19. The labs in the institute are some of the best and advanced in India, with advanced laboratory equipment and qualified lab assistants. Hostels have good facilities, water is supplied by water cans, every room has a LAN port for internet connectivity and the rooms are good enough for accommodation. The washrooms are cleaned daily. In some hostels, students can avail the use of washing machines, refrigerators, and other advanced equipment. The mess and the canteen give good quality food. There is a hospital in the institute that is open 24 hours a week. There are also excellent facilities for racquet sports, cricket, football, hockey, athletics, swimming, etc. There is also a gymnasium. Currently due to the impact of COVID-19 only racquet sports and athletics are permitted.

Faculty: IITM has some of the most qualified and eminent professors in chemistry at least. I expect things to be the same in other areas of education. The quality of teaching is one of the best in India. The course composition is ideal for a student to cope up with. The semester exams are moderate to slightly difficult. The majority of the exam contents come from the class teachings, with the view that every student passes the examination.

Other: Our batch in IIT is not only bound by education, but we also share each other's feelings. In fact, we are more of a family than a mere batch of students. Studying in an IIT is a special achievement in itself for each student, given that the IITs are the topmost institutes in India. Getting to interact with eminent professors, keeping in proximity with the most talented and intellectual minds, working in advanced experimental labs as well as the beautiful campus are some of the perks of an IIT, which fills a student's mind with happiness, vigor, and passion. Chemistry is a field of science that is central to today's developing world. There is virtually no area in Science which do not have the slightest application of chemistry. Chemistry may be a developing Science, but in India, IITM has one of the best setups in this field. Due to COVID-19, we are only limited to 4 months on the campus rather than 2 whole years. This is one of the major challenges that need to be addressed since the impact of COVID-19 is strong enough to affect the on-campus education of future students. Supplementing the quality of offline education into online education is the biggest challenge that IITM faces now, as far as motivating the students is concerned.
