B.Tech. in Electronics Engineering - Batch of 2029

4.2

5Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Absolutely satisfied with my college IIT BHU because of facilities and good placement in 2026.

Placements: In the electronics branch, the placement percentage is approximately 81 percent. The highest package is 90 LPA, the lowest is 7.5 LPA, and the average is 23.5 LPA. Top companies are Google, Microsoft, and Nvidia. 40 percent of students got internships in core jobs, where the major company was Nvidia, and a few also got internships in SDE. Roles include VLSI, embedded systems, and PCB.

Infrastructure: The facilities are very good at IIT BHU. Wi-Fi covers the entire campus, and classrooms are fully modernized. There are 4 lecture theatres in our college. For freshers, IIT BHU has the best hostel among all IITs, named PC Ray Hostel, which covers all required infrastructure and is newly made, so it looks aesthetic as well. There are 3 huge grounds in IIT BHU, which cover facilities for all sports. We have SAC for indoor games and a newly made gym, which is the biggest sports auditorium as well.

Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is good, though not as awesome as JEE teachers. The course curriculum is relevant too. Semester exams are decent, and the difficulty level is good. I chose Electronics Engineering because it is the backbone of modern technology, from AI hardware to communication systems. At IIT BHU, the best thing is the 'Open Lab' culture and the technical societies. I’ve already started diving into circuit design, where I’ve learned that relying on nodal analysis is often more reliable than mesh rules when dealing with the complex, multi-source branches common in advanced electronics.

Other: Living in Varanasi offers a unique blend of heritage and high-tech education. The campus is vast and green. I’m particularly excited about joining the Club of Electronics (the technical club under the SNTC), which provides a great platform for freshers to work on robotics and embedded systems projects.

Very good college ancient college in India.

Placements: In the placement of the current batch, there are 87 companies that offered internships to students. Major companies like Microsoft, Apple, Nvidia, Goldman Sachs, Rubric, VISA, ThoughtSpot, Axxela, American Express etc. The highest package of our college is 2.20 Crore at present year and the average package of the college is 22 LPA. There are 1128 students placed in the present year. The percentage of students getting placements is about 80 percent.

Infrastructure: There is a wide range of books available in our college. The variety of books is very nice. There we get books of spirituality, competitive exams, novels, biographies, self development and many more. The classrooms of our college are decent. The facilities is vey nice. The sports facilities in our college are excellent. There are 23 sports that are introduced in our college. In our college there are multiple clubs for the interests of every individual in our college. Our hostel is the newly built in our college. In our hostel there are 10 floors.

Faculty: The faculty to student ratio is 1/22. The faculty to student relationship is good. We approach faculty by doing mail on their mail inbox to ask any doubt or we can ask doubts after the class. All the faculty members are good. I like all of them. All faculty members are best in their respective subjects. There are two exams in our college, one is mid semester and another is end semester exam in one semester. The difficulty of exams is hard. Almost all students pass the exam but a few of them fail in exams.

All about IIT BHU and its pros and cons.

Placements: About 90% of people in my course are placed. The highest package offered is 51 LPA, the lowest is 8 LPA, and the average for 2023-24 is 19.6 LPA. Top recruiting companies include big software giants like Microsoft, Google, Goldman Sachs, American Express, etc. However, the number of students offered internships is comparatively less.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure at IIT BHU Varanasi isn't that great. We have decent labs with old machinery. Wi-Fi works well at most locations except a few. There are lecture halls, mostly without ACs. The library isn't very luxurious, but it holds a good collection of all the required books. Facilities in hostels are also decent, though not the best. First-year students have triple-sharing rooms, and the rest have double-sharing rooms. The food in the mess is good, but the canteens are a disaster since we don't have branded vendors like Nescafé or Domino's. Medical facilities are decent.

Faculty: Professors are helpful and know their subjects well. The teaching quality is good if you pay close attention. The course curriculum is relevant. The semester exam difficulty varies from moderate to difficult, but it's mostly based on the course and way of study. The pass percentage is high, with only a few students encountering backlogs in a few courses.

Our college is nice we love it.

Placements: I have no idea about the exact placement status yet. The highest package is 2.20 crores. Our top recruiting companies are all worldwide famous cooperative companies. 440 internship in the winter placement season and 240 ppo. The top role offered is os sde. Approximately 80 to 90 percent get placement.

Infrastructure: We have good food, a mess, Wi-Fi, a ibrary and a lot of things. The structure of labs and classrooms is old, it is already a bit old, but new halls are being built which are very good. Initially there are good facilities in the hostel but later on it happens that there is no water and the geyser is facility.

Faculty: Our professors here are very good, they teach very well. All the professors are well qualified and graduated. There are also good things here. Later on there is a lot of time left due to which we can concentrate more on our skill projects.

Other: The course is good but it all depends on your JEE rank, what you get and why. Now the branch change has also been topped.

Review of Banaras Hindu University College.

Placements: About 55% of the students are placed in my department. The highest package is 5 LPA, the average package is 3.5 LPA, and the lowest package is 2 LPA. The students who got internships in several recruiting companies are 35%. Students opt for outside opportunities too.

Infrastructure: The facilities at our college are good, with fine infrastructure. They provide Wi-Fi, smart board facilities, and others. The departments are well-designed. The library is also good; we can find all types of books there. The hostel is better; they offer Wi-Fi facilities, provide food and rooms to students, and keep the mess well-cleaned. Our college also organizes sports activities.

Faculty: The teachers are helpful and well-qualified, like Ph.D. holders. The teaching quality is good, and the course makes students industry-ready. Semester exams are more difficult than those at other colleges, but they help build students. The passing CGPA is above 9.
