One of the best colleges in Northern India.
Placements: 60% of the students get placed on campus. The remaining get placed off campus. Some prepare for government examinations, so they do not sit for placements. The lowest package is 8 LPA. The highest is around 56 LPA for an SDE role, possibly off campus. Amazon, Google, Meesho, and Microsoft are some of the top recruiting companies. 20 students get internships at Godrej, Microsoft, Google, etc. Assistant Manager is one of the roles offered.
Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure are very good, excellent. Wi-Fi is available at high speed 24/7. Labs are very high-tech. Classrooms have AC. The library is very spacious. Hostels are very big and clean. Food has always been great for the past 1 year. Sports and games are encouraged a lot. Medical facilities are available 24/7.
Faculty: Teachers are always ready to help. They are very kind, knowledgeable, and highly qualified. Teaching has always been great and the best. The course curriculum is very in-depth and understandable. It does make students industry-ready in every aspect. Semester exams are moderately tough. Almost every student passes, although sometimes two or three students fail.
Other: From childhood, I wanted to be a civil engineer, and that is the only reason I chose this course. The schedules of our classes can be improved. Events are breathtaking. Fests are always my best part. The campus crowd is okay. We have the best connectivity, being in the middle of main Kashi. Scholarships are provided every year. Extracurricular activities are very engaging.

Bad college life, but great placements.
Placements: 45 out of 55 students reviewed an internship till week 2 of the internship season. The highest package is 30 LPA. Last year, the highest package was 2.21 crore per annum, and the average was 50 LPA. NK Securities offered 2.21 crore per annum as the highest package. Quant roles are the top roles offered. Many quant roles are available.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi, labs, and classrooms are available. The Wi-Fi is not very good, the speed is quite slow. Classrooms have AC. The hostel is quite decent. The washrooms are bad. The mess food lacks hygiene a lot. Sport facilities are lacking a bit due to a lot of crowd.
Faculty: Some of the teachers are well qualified and knowledgeable. Some are very nice, lenient, and helpful. Some of them are strict and made to destroy your CGPA. The course is very nice. The curriculum is very Maths and computing-focused. The semester exams are chill. Scoring CGPA is comparatively easier. The pass percentage is around 80 to 90 percent, I would say, in our batch till now.

I study at one of the best colleges in India.
Placements: The M.Sc. Physics course was of two years' duration. Only 25 seats were available in this course. The placement cell of the college was very supportive. The highest package of our course was 1.2 Crore per annum, and the average package was 9 LPA. Mostly EdTech companies came for placements. Companies like PW, Unacademy, and FIITJEE hired most of the students.
Infrastructure: Our institute was very beautiful and green. Wi-Fi was available throughout the campus and in the hostel 24/7. Classrooms had smart board facilities, which helped teachers explain topics effectively. A central library was located in the institute where students could borrow books for reading. Hostel rooms were great, and the mess food was really tasty.
Faculty: All our teachers were very supportive and kind. They always helped us solve academic problems. They were highly qualified, and most of them had Ph.D. degrees. The course mainly focused on deep theoretical knowledge. Semester exams were easy to moderate, and most students passed successfully.

Best of IIT, BHU, campus life and facilities.
Placements: 90% are placed in the last year. The highest package is 55.1 LPA. The average package is 23 LPA. The lowest package is 10 LPA. The top recruiting company is Thai Chem Ltd. 70% students got internships in my course. The top roles offered are final product analysis.
Infrastructure: The best facilities are provided. The complex is very good, clean and big. Students roam around the campus very easily. Wi-Fi, classes and everything are top class. The canteen is also very good. Medical facilities have a health centre for students. Sport is also very good.
Faculty: Professors are highly qualified with one of the most prestigious PhD degrees you can expect. The course curriculum is also very good and relevant to all the students. Semester exams are kind of average because they are sometimes easy to score and sometimes not.

5.0Placements3.0Infrastructure4.0Faculty5.0Crowd & Campus Life5.0Value for Money
Great college for study, for the environment, and for campus life.
Placements: At least 80 percent of the students eventually get placed till the end of the placement season, comprising packages varying from 3-4 LPA to 1.5 CPA. Top companies include Microsoft, Google, Samsung, Goldman Sachs, BNY, Coforge, Mahindra, Nvidia, and many more.
Infrastructure: Hostel facilities depend on the hostel you are allotted to. Like there are hostels like Dhanrajgiri, Sathish Dhawan, PC Ray, which are new, thus have new infrastructure and facilities like lifts. But other hostels like Vishveshwaraiya, Vivekanand, and Rajputana have old infrastructure, thus fewer facilities, but they have their own old school vibes.
Faculty: Professors and staff are helpful but at the same time strict and want to maintain the decorum of the college. There are always some flaws in everything, but overall, IITBHU's faculty is good, and this is a good place to get a graduation from. Obviously, it's an IIT.

Faculty: The course is good. It provides you with the freedom of learning what you like. Faculty members are very helpful. They encourage you to go for higher studies and research. Semester exams are of moderate difficulty and comparatively easier compared to other IITs.
Other: College fests are quite good. People learn and enjoy a lot.
