Integrated M.Tech. in Geological Technology - Batch of 2030

4Placements5Infrastructure3Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Vibrant college life that you'll remember for a lifetime.

Placements: Out of 30, 15 got placed, 10 go for off-campus, 5 go for higher studies 30 LPA being the highest, the lowest goes to 10 LPA, and the average is 16 LPA. Companies like Schlumberger, British Petroleum, and mainly recruit for core jobs. Internships are very few, like fewer than 5 students get core internships, and for this also CG should be above 9. Geotechnical roles or office roles also are also offered.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available throughout campus (except in bathrooms), and every department has well-equipped labs (note that lab supervisors may occasionally give you bad advice, so be cautious). Classrooms also have good infrastructure, including teaching boards and projectors. The library is accessible except at night (it is also open at night during exams). Additionally, there is a 24/7 reading room. New hostels are very luxurious, old ones are decent. The mess food is very good, as there are various options available. The canteen provides a 24/7 menu at a good rate. Medical facilities are provided well, MBBS doctors are available, and with insurance, free medicine and consultation. Every sport has enough sports grounds or courts, and fun games.

Faculty: Professors are knowledgeable but can't deliver well enough to be understood by everyone. You have to learn from the side to be industry-ready, and it's possible as the peer group is supportive. 1st semester is common for everyone, so your understanding of Physics and Maths would decide toughness, then onwards, core courses decide, like GT has an easy course (as I listen from seniors). Most of the students pass, with around 2-3 percent having a backlog.

Other: I like Earth Sciences and want to learn about rock and minerals, as I had studied in my 8th-grade geography. If online resources could be given in an organised way and with a good planner, then it would have been better. If you have good friends, all the fests and events become a memory for a lifetime. All staff and professors are supportive and kind. You get regular emails about various opportunities, and the channel has lots of information.

A beautiful campus that anyone would love.

Placements: All the giants do come here, but it is not worth the hype. The management here is not able to call the quant giants like Optiver, so these things are disappointing, but the good thing is that more than 95 percent of CSE students got placed this year, and about 60 percent of students in PPO, and that's something really great. The top roles offered are like those of an SDE. This year, as far as I have heard, the highest package is of 1.62 crores per annum. One thing that could be done better is calling some quant giants for recruitment as well.

Infrastructure: Hostels for first year are decent but those of second, third, and fourth years are not good. The rooms are very small, and the washrooms are not very clean and are sinking too. The classrooms could have been a little better, as even some of their two and three-year ITs have better classrooms, and we do not have any synthetic race track so that's also a loophole. One more thing is that though healthy, the taste of the mess food is not good.

Faculty: Faculty, except for a few, are not up to the mark. I mean, they have the knowledge, they are well qualified, but they usually lack the ability to explain it to the students properly. Only a few professors are good at this. The course curriculum is quite relevant, and the difficulty level was also quite good, considering the fact that we are IITians.

Other: There is no need to tell why I chose CSE, I guess, because everyone knows it's hype. The fests of our college are among the best in North India. The system of scholarships could have been a little better because they ask for an ITR every year, whereas other colleges just rely on the income certificate. The seniors and the other people are also very good, and the perks of my college are the beautiful green environment close to the Himalayas, so you can go on trips at the end of every semester.

My college campus is very nice.

Placements: Approximately 80-85 percent of students are placed in our college every year. The highest package from our college is approximately 1.5 crores. Google, Microsoft, Adobe, Oracle, and Bajaj are some of the major recruiting companies. There are a total of 163 companies for placements.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very good. Our college has the famous James Thomson building, which is famous across the country. The Wi-Fi is very good. Wi-Fi is available in hostels and classrooms. Hostels are better, but three students live in a single room.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful. Their teaching style is nice, but some teachers are not good, and their voice does not reach the back of the class. Semester exams are very difficult and not easy to pass. They are similar to previous year papers, and students cannot score well by studying only one night before.

Other: I chose this college because it is the only option I have. Events and fests are conducted every few months.

My journey and experience at IITR.

Placements: In our CSE batch, around 90% of students get placed. Coming to packages, the highest package is at the crore level, the average package is 15 LPA, and the lowest package is 8 LPA. Top companies include Google, Microsoft, Amazon, quant companies, etc. The roles offered are SDE, data science, ML engineer, etc.

Infrastructure: For our department/course, we have fast Wi-Fi, modern labs, smart classrooms, and rich central libraries. Hostel facilities are decent enough with 24/7 internet. Even the mess food is good and decent. Medical centres are always available. Coming to the sports section, it is excellent and well-maintained.

Faculty: The teaching staff is highly qualified, helpful, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is concept-oriented and very practical. The curriculum is relevant and industry-oriented. Semester exams are tough, but grading is very fair. The pass percentage is around 98% with regular attendance and effort.

Other: I chose computer science because I had a strong interest in coding and problem-solving. My best parts are strong fundamentals and projects. IIT Roorkee has vibrant fests, good connectivity, a green campus, scholarships, and active clubs.

Excellent but dissatisfied with faculty and course structure.

Placements: This time IIT Roorkee is having the worst placement season with only 47 companies coming for this placement/internship season. 100 students are placed from the mechanical branch. The highest package offered is 51 LPA the average package offered is 19 LPA and the lowest package offered is 6.6LPA. Top recruiting company is Amazon and it came for various posts. Top roles offered are management and software development. 40 people got on campus internships and others went for off campus internships. This is not a good result as the PIC is failing to bring more core companies and negotiate better offers.

Infrastructure: Our department has many facilities including smart classrooms and laboratories. Classrooms are good they have all the facilities but laboratories are still developing. There are some outdated methods that are still being used considering them to be basic experiments. Some of them are really outdated. There is a central library which is very good well maintained. Hostels are good they have many facilities including Wi-Fi gyms canteens and sports rooms. The main problem is the mess it offers really bad quality and taste of food.

Faculty: Faculty members are experienced qualified knowledgeable and helpful. Some faculty members are really rude towards the students and some faculty members also do favoritism towards a particular community of students. They are trying to make it relevant they introduce some new courses like AI/ML and Data Science but they are still unable to deliver quality content about the course. The professor with little knowledge about the course is assigned to teach the course instead of assigning a good faculty. It does not make students industry ready. They are very hard and the grading system is relatively so we do not have a pass percentage.

Other: ]I got the course by JEE Advanced Rank although I will have gone for a higher branch if I am eligible. Mechanical branch is good if one is really interested in understanding the dynamics and the core functionality of the secondary sector of the country. Personally the best thing about the course is that I get to work with 3D printers and CNC machines. The course should cater more to be industry specific for contemporary times rather than teaching the old stuff that is no longer used in industries. Events fest campus crowd extracurricular activities are 1000 on 10.

Excellent infrastructure, but dissatisfied with placements and internships.

Placements: This year IIT Roorkee has the worst placement season with only 47 companies coming to the college. The placement cell is an absolute mess. They are not working properly, have little communication with branch DPRs, and limited interaction with company HRs for any further vacancies or offers that might be available if they negotiate. 45 students get internships from my course batch. The highest package is 10 lakhs for a 6 months internship, and the lowest is Rs. 25,000 for two months. Top recruiting and most internships go to Amazon. Top roles so far are management and software development.

Infrastructure: The course is a complete 4 out of 5. Classrooms are amazing with excellent seating, AC, and heaters in winters. The practical labs cater to job-ready skills that mechanical engineers require, such as CAD modeling and sessions on 3D printing. Hostels are 3.5 out of 5 because the management is good, but the rooms could be more modern. The Wi-Fi system and balconies score 5 out of 5. The canteen and mess food are good, both 3.5 out of 5. Medical facilities and sports are excellent, 5 out of 5.

Faculty: The curriculum is too vast, and some subjects are outdated, like manufacturing technology. The majority of the portion is related to old-style casting and holding methods, while newer methods like CNC machines and 3D printers are taught briefly, even though it is an advanced course. I would score faculty members 2 out of 5 because of some good professors. The professors are excellent at their craft, but they should listen to the students’ needs more. Exams are tough, but from a teacher’s point of view, they are excellent. The exact pass percentage varies from subject to subject, but on average, it is around 95%.

Other: I chose my course mainly because I get it according to my JEE Advanced rank and IIT Roorkee is among the top 7 colleges of India. I am also fascinated by the mountain life. Mechanical is a very good branch with average packages of placement going up to 25 LPA. More efforts are needed to update the syllabus so that students are more industry efficient. The campus, people, fests, surroundings, campus life, and extracurricular activities are 1000 out of 10. I do not have any scholarships but, my friend receives around Rs. 67,000 per sem. Connectivity is awesome too.
