So well, good infrastructure, campus life, and facilities are provided to each student.

Placements: 90% of students are placed. The highest package is 1.17 crore, the lowest package is 8-10 LPA, and the average package is 23-26 LPA. Top companies are Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Accenture, Goldman Sachs, and Wipro. 90% of students got internships. Software engineer roles are offered.

Infrastructure: Though IIT is a central government institution, facilities ranging from studying to various types of amenities are provided to students. Free Wi-Fi is given to students during class hours, and hostel facilities are excellent. The mess and canteen are fabulous and well-equipped with every kind of food item a student can eat according to his/her choice. Every kind of sports facility is available.

Faculty: Professors are helpful, well-educated, and extremely knowledgeable. Teacher quality is at an advanced level. The course curriculum is flexible and relevant for students. It makes students purely industry-ready. The difficulties of semester exams vary subject by subject, providing a mix of easy and difficult assessments. Pass percentage 94%.

Other: As I am more interested in building my career in software engineering, I chose this course. The best aspects of our course are coding, new skills, and new problems. There is a little bit less focus on math skills for students, so that needs improvement. Events like Anwesha and the DJ night are very enjoyable. The campus surroundings are spacious, with ample facilities for students, starting from daily life activities like running, walking, playing, cycling, etc.

I am really satisfied with it. Placements are pretty good. Infrastructure is awesome.

Placements: The economics branch was started 2 years back in 2024, so there are no placement states for my branch. In other branches like CSE, ECE, etc., the placement percentage is 80 percent. The highest package offered is more than 1 crore per annum. The remaining 20 percent of students choose the civil services, startups, etc. Companies like Google, Microsoft, IBM, Nvidia, Accenture, Samsung, Sony, KPMG, etc., hire students from the college.

Infrastructure: The hostel is well-equipped with 7 Wi-Fi connections and a lift. Rooms are good. The library has all types of books, magazines, and journals. A digital library facility is also available. Right now, the mess food is pretty good. Medical facilities are good. We have a sports complex in which cricket, football, hockey, tennis, volleyball, and basketball are available. We also have a gymkhana where TT, badminton, chess, and a gym are available.

Faculty: Professors are awesome. Many of them study at foreign institutes. Nearly all professors have enough experience in their particular domain. Many professors also release their research papers from time to time. The 1st-year course curriculum is not fully relevant, but it's good for unskilled problem-solving. Exams are not difficult, as nearly 99 percent of students pass easily.

Other: I have to explore the path of economics, so I chose it. It organises 3 big fests, namely Celesta (tech fest) in December, Infinito (sports fest) in October, and Anwesha (the biggest cultural fest).

IIT Patna - The good and bad.

Placements: Placements are good, and in my course, the placement percentage was 82%, and the overall placement percentage was 89%. The average package overall was near 20 LPA, and the average package for mechanical was about 13 LPA. The highest package in mechanical was approximately 50 LPA, and overall, the highest was 1.2 CRPA. All major software companies and PSUs visit IITP for the placement drive.

Infrastructure: The academic infrastructure is great, with high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the institute, high-tech labs, and modern classrooms with facilities such that all students can SEE the screens easily. The library in IITP is huge, with all modern amenities and all sorts of books. Hostel facilities are decent, but the cleanliness of washrooms should be improved. The mess is decent, and medical and sports facilities are amazing.

Faculty: The faculty are knowledgeable and highly qualified in their fields. Most of the faculty are helpful and try to teach well. The course curriculum is relevant and in accordance with NEP policy. The semester exams are challenging, but if prepared well, you can easily pass.

Other: Some shortcomings are that it's not very near the city, so city life or nightlife doesn't exist. There is a lack of food shops inside the campus, so you will feel that, but apart from that, it's fine.

Comparing IIT Patna with other IITs.

Placements: The placement here is not that good if you compare it with other reputed colleges, even though it comes with the IIT tag, it does not fulfill it. I can say placements are just good, but not top-notch. Students get internships here, but the number is low.

Infrastructure: The hostel is good if I compare it with other colleges, many IITs have average or just the worst hostel, but here the infrastructure is good, the buildings are new. Mess is also good, but not that good, you can't expect so much from them. Some lifts are not working all the time in hostels.

Faculty: Faculty members are good here, not that strict but not so much lenient. Some give free attendance, but some are so strict that they do not even allow attendance after 5 minutes in the class. Faculty members are well-established in their field. Everybody is from IITs, and they have researched a lot.

Other: Fests are also good here if we compare to other 2nd-gen IITs.
