Decent faculty, good labs, and helpful placement support.
Placements: I am from the M.Tech batch of IIT Patna. Around 80% of students were placed. The highest package is 18 LPA, the lowest is 5 LPA, and the average was 9 LPA. Companies like Amazon, TCS, and Wipro came. About 85% got internships in DRDO, ISRO, and startups. Roles like developer and research assistant are offered.
Infrastructure: IIT Patna has good infrastructure. The department has fast Wi-Fi, modern labs, AC classrooms, and a big library with many books. Hostel rooms are fine, but sometimes not properly clean. Mess food is average, and canteen food is a little better. A medical room is available for health issues. Sports ground and indoor games are also present. The campus is neat and peaceful.
Faculty: IIT Patna has good Wi-Fi, a big library, smart classrooms, and the lab is also nice. Hostel rooms are okay, but sometimes cleaning is not proper. Mess food is not very tasty, canteen food is better. A medical room is there for small help. Sports ground and games are also available. It's quite good.
Other: I took this course because I like research and teaching. The best thing is the good lab and project work. Some subjects can be more updated. The campus has events, fests, and tech fests also. The crowd is good, and the campus is clean. Scholarships are given to many. Sports and club activities are also there. Connectivity by bus and train is okay.
