There are many canteens and the food quality is good. The food served in the mess is better. Hostel rooms are not good compared to other new IITs.
Faculty: In this college, professors are very good and they are supportive. Few teachers are rude. Our course curriculum is easy compared to other IITs. It is also easy to score in biotechnology.
Other: Our campus location is very good. There are many tourist places nearby. Thomso is a very famous fest in Asia. General scholarships are based on family income.

IITR had good placements in the year 2022.
Placements: Placements in IITR are pretty good. Almost 94% of the applied students got placed this year from the biotechnology department. The salary package offered was around 25 LPA to 15 LPA. The top recruiters here included Sprinklr and Adloid. The internship season was also pretty good this time, and a few students even got foreign interns. Top roles offered included SDE, data analyst, PM, etc.
Infrastructure: The facilities are good apart from being a pretty old college. Labs in the biotechnology department have all the equipment. Mahatma Gandhi central library contains a huge variety of books. The central library of our institute is one of the best academic libraries in the country. The food served in the mess is average, and each bhawan has its own canteen.
Faculty: All the biotechnology department and other departments professors have earned a doctoral degree in the appropriate areas. All of them are very knowledgeable. The biotechnology course curriculum is research-oriented, and students who are interested in core often opt for higher studies. Semester exams are often quite difficult, but it all depends on the professors. The pass percentage is always around 90%.

The college has very good infrastructure, facilities, great community and strong alumni connection.
Placements: Placements in our college are 100%. Students get internship opportunities from almost every sector. Most of them get pre-placement offers. Many students also do a winter internship, and every student has to do summer internships compulsorily. Training and placement cells ensure that internship opportunity is accessible to all.
Infrastructure: There is also a department-wise library apart from the central library. Wi-Fi facility is available on the campus and internet is available at a speed of 1 Gbps which is to be updated to 10 Gbps soon. OFC is already deployed on the campus. Canteens are available 24x7 at various locations, and all sports and games are also available here.
Faculty: There are theoretical courses, which is a bit boring. Some application-based courses are also available, which is quite interesting. There are also lab courses to explore the research work and a B.Tech project to work with our interest area.
