    IIT Patna M.Tech honest college review.
    Placements: Placements at the institute are the perfect definition of it. Students generally become eligible for placement from the fourth semester. Around 300 recruiters participate, including top domestic as well as foreign companies. The average package for the M.Tech programme is 16 LPA, and the highest package offered is 1 CPA. The top recruiters in the drive include Microsoft, Oracle, Goldman Sachs, ICICI, Tata, and HCL. Almost 100 percent of students got placed. I plan to work after my graduation.
    Infrastructure: Hostel rooms are good in all aspects. 24 hour electricity is provided, and an emergency generator facility is available. The hostel is neat and clean. Sweepers come regularly to clean the dirty areas, and rooms are properly cleaned every weekend. The mess maintains good quality food.
    Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified. Most of them did their PhD. from IITs or other reputed colleges in other countries. The first year curriculum is a slight mixture of all subjects and makes students industry ready in other ways. Semester exams are not difficult.

    My review of the IIT Patna.
    Placements: Placement for the first batch of scores happens in 2026, so clearly mentioning some record about the placement is a big challenge. Right now, they have created a WhatsApp group for career and placement for hybrid students, where they constantly give a link.
    Infrastructure: In the friendships structure, it is good for other IITs. It has 516 students and a big campus, but BS students cannot get hostel facilities. If you want hostel facilities, you can contact the IIT administration, who can allot you a hostel with all facilities like a gym and a khana.
    Faculty: IIT Patna is located on its permanent campus, Beta. It has well-developed infection for both academic pursuits and student residential life, the institutional lecture hall and editorial building, each department has a BS student with a very high per month 14000 speed Wi-Fi, water purified and regular.

    I am satisfied with this college.
    Placements: In our college, almost all students are placed. The highest salary package offered is 46.38 LPA. The lowest salary package offered is 11.8 LPA and the average salary package offered is 25.6 LPA. Top recruiting companies like Amazon, Intel, Rakuten, Samsung R&D, NTPC, BEL NXP, TCS R&D, Cognam, etc., visit our campus. Top roles offered are SDE, data scientist, R&D engineer, engineering executive, etc.
    Infrastructure: Labs and classrooms are available. A central library is available. There is a huge central library under construction. Hostels are a bit congested. You can share a single room with other students. New hostel blocks are almost on the brink of completion, so it may resolve those issues. Mess facilities are average to good, tenders are given, and student communities decide on menus. The con is that a mess is assigned to every student in their respective hostel block. There is no flexibility to choose a different mess. One major drawback is that only 15 days of leave are allowed in the mess bill per semester.
    Faculty: Our teachers are helpful and well-qualified. They are experts in their respective fields. The course curriculum is relevant. A few improvements will make it more industry-relevant. Semester exams are difficult, but consistent effort will make you succeed. Semester evaluation is divided into many parts, so you can easily pass with good grades if you do well.
    Other: The course is in line with the latest trends in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science. Our college organises a lot of technical and non-technical events and fests. Extracurricular activities are good. Sports are held on campus. The campus crowd is excellent. The campus connectivity is good from Patna. The college provides intra-campus bus service as well as buses from campus to Patna daily.

    M.Tech. in Mechatronics - Batch of 2015

    It is not good for mechatronics students.
    Placements: For Mechatronics, it is difficult to get core companies since they are not visiting campus for placements. Companies like Honeywell and other all robotics companies visit our college for placements. Placements are difficult for mechanical students who do not have an interest in electronics and computer science.
    Infrastructure: In classrooms, chairs should be set up stepwise because, on a flat surface, it is difficult for students to see the board. The hotel room is awesome. Two times cleaning of the entire hostel is done every day. There is a gym in the hostel, which anyone can use from 5 AM to 10 AM and 5 PM to 10 PM.
    Faculty: Faculty members in our college are good. Most of the teachers use board and chalk, but some teachers use PPT for taking classes most of the time. The course curriculum is excellent. In semester vacations, students get internships easily. It is not difficult to pass the semester, but we have to study well to get more than 8 CGPA.
    Other: I have chosen this course because I thought mechatronics would increase my area, but I could not get placed.
