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.

B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering - Batch of 2029

3Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

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.

B.Tech. in Electrical Engineering - Batch of 2029

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

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.
