Review of Indian Institute of Technology, BHU, Varanasi.

Placements: The college is well-known for its placements, right after the spiritual atmosphere of Varanasi. Students usually get internships in their third year, and placement season starts in the 7th semester for B.Teach and the 9th semester for IDD students. This year, the highest package offered was 1.68 CPA, and more than 100 companies visited for both core and non-core roles. The average package stayed around 23-24 LPA. Over 80% of students got placed, which is a big positive considering the current recession.

Infrastructure: The college has pretty good infrastructure and decent amenities. The on-campus housing is actually comfortable and managed well, so many students prefer staying there. The food service is okay, too, not anything special, but it does the job. Overall campus experience was good and nice.

Faculty: Honesty, the faculty here is amazing. Every teacher really knows their subject and teaches with interest. They are approachable and always ready to help. Their teaching style makes it easier to understand the concepts. The curriculum is updated, and the exam papers are balanced not too tough, not too easy.

Infrastructure: Our college has good sports facilities and big grounds for every game. There are many games like badminton, basketball, cricket, boxing, and many others.

Decent infrastructure and well-experienced faculty.

Placements: About 65 percent of the students will get placements in our course. The average package is 8 LPA, and the top recruiting companies are Tata Motors, Bajaj, etc. While coming to the interns, the core companies were low compared to the non-core, so the interns were pretty difficult. Top roles like design engineer and production engineer will be achieved.

Infrastructure: The Wi-Fi facilities are good. The teaching quality is good. While coming to labs and equipment, it is perfect. The library and classrooms are good too, but the spacing is small compared to the total students. The hostels are a bit old, and the food is decent, too.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful and they are well-experienced, so that you can take advice from them. They are well qualified. This course makes the students industry-ready. While coming to the semester exams, there are decent and sometimes difficult, but if we understand the concepts, then we can easily survive.

Other: The events, fests, and other extracurricular activities were good. We can learn so many things, like communication skills and gaining confidence, etc.

One of the best engineering colleges.

Placements: The placement percentage based on 2025 data is around 64%. It is a decent percentage, as many of the students opt for further studies and other streams, other than campus placements. SDE is the top role and is more beneficial for CSE and MNC students. Other branch students can have core placements too, as per their interests.

Infrastructure: We do not have restricted internet. LAN points are present in every hostel room. The campus's main buildings have centralized Wi-Fi known as IITG-Connect, and we can log in through our ID and ERP password. Internet speed is mediocre. Each hostel has an AC library and gym of its own. There is a big central library and a gym for the whole campus. Classroom infrastructure is way beyond what we will see in other Tier 2 colleges. There are canteens in every hostel. There are 10 boys' hostels and 3 girls' hostels on campus.

Faculty: Most teachers are helpful, very qualified in their specialties, and knowledgeable in every aspect. There is a slight language barrier between teachers, professors, and faculty members due to different accents. The course curriculum is very relevant, and all data is shared at the start of the tenure.

Fully satisfied with what it provides, good infrastructure and facilites.

Placements: 13 out of 15 (87%) students were placed from the batch 2024-2025 in our course where the average package was 18 LPA-19 LPA given that not a lot of them were for core (in material science) positions because core companies like Applied Materials Inc. and Loham are offering upto 30 LPA offers. The highest package was 46 LPA in Meesho for the SDE role and the lowest was around 12 LPA. Some of the companies that came were Walmart, Citi Bank, Jarvis (business analyst role), Meesho, and Loham. 2 students got internships out of 15 and off-campus because companies came for circuital branches.

Infrastructure: Our material science department has complete high-speed Wi-Fi connectivity all over the same in the lecture halls. Department has AC-furnished rooms but not lecture halls as of now. Also, material science department has some world-class quality instruments for research so research-oriented students can surely come. My hostel (Satish Dhawan) reading rooms are equipped with AC and good food quality in a mess with both vegetarian and non-vegetarian food options. Canteens are open from 3:00 PM up to 4:30 AM. 3 large common rooms with TV, chess, and seating are available. Every room has Wi-Fi and ethernet.

Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified, and many research papers published, M.Sc. PhDs from foreign universities medallists. Teaching quality is exactly like how science must be taught with examples with creativity, and very interactive in the class with all students. Course curriculum is also industry-relevant and keeps on adapting every year. Exams are as difficult as expected and sometimes stand out with questions such as trying to make a question utilizing all the knowledge learned through the course applied to a real-world problem, but the grading is relatively depend on the people around you.

Other: Clubs are good like every society you name it, astronomy club, business club, robotics club, COPS (Club of Programs), SNTC (science and technology council), quant club, football, and student alumni interaction cell. The only IIT in India that recorded a positive growth in placements such as good training and placement cell which provide classes for hard DSA topics and guidance. Fee remission is there if family income is below 5 LPA and many scholarships keep coming throughout the year. Spardha India's biggest sports fest and Kashiyatra and Technex, FMC Week are conducted.
