Infrastructure: Campus is well-equipped with all the necessary facilities such as the air-conditioners and well-furnished classrooms with projector facilities, Amphi-theatre, auditorium, seminar halls, computer labs, 24x7 Wi-Fi facility, and library with a collection of online and offline books, etc. Hostels charge a very nominal fee for a hostel is Rs.15,000 per annum.

Facilities were different for both genders.

Faculty: The two-year course includes both fundamentals and advanced ideas, and VGSoM's 30-member teaching team also contributed significantly to giving the finest possible content to the students.

Review of VGSOM IIT Kharagpur - Vinod Gupta School of Management.

Placements: The campus placements are good, with multiple offers in multiple domains. The average package offered is around 17 LPA, and the median is around 16 LPA. Many students get placed in consulting and analytics. The course curriculum is designed in such a way that such offers become feasible to candidates. The college has been achieving 100% placements consistently for the past 4 years and has also added some big brands like ITC, Amazon, Akzo Nobel, Jio Saavn, Dell, RBI etc.

Infrastructure: We used to indulge in various activities like swimming, and we had a proper gymkhana where we used to work out. It was well-equipped with all the latest machines. Apart from this, the college has a proper seminar hall. The hostel is good and well-maintained with ventilated rooms and 24-hours water and electricity supply. Apart from this, the hostel has a good and friendly environment, which actually helps us to fit in very quickly.

Faculty: We are taught various aspects of managerial concepts like managerial economics, financial management, and operational management. Along with this, there was a mandatory dissertation report which was supposed to be submitted during the final year. The college offers a micro specialisation in analytics which is its forte, However, finance courses are not generally taken up by students here.

I'm totally satisfied with university as placements are best.

Placements: IIT Kharagpur is the best college in placements in every field and each student got more than one placement offers from different companies on a high scale package. Some of them are interested and pursuing internships while some have others goals and they are preparing for it.

Infrastructure: In terms of infrastructure, it is very attractive and big. The library is all equipped with thousands of books and very big in size. There are separate number of hostels each having their own mess and food quality is also good. Sports grounds for cricket, football, volleyball court, basketball court, table tennis plus indoor games facilities are available. The labs are well maintained by staff members with all instruments upgraded and you can do your work or any research work according to a time slot given to you.

Faculty: Faculty members are the best since most of them are in college for many years and highly experienced in their fields. Their knowledge is high regarding the current situations of the market and industries. Some of them have good contacts with industries. The course curriculum is well accurately designed by board members. Hence, we have no difficulty regarding curriculum.
