Overall, it is the best college for a PhD in Chemistry course.
Placements: About 70% of the students qualified in the last batch. The highest salary package offered is 35 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered is 9 LPA. The average salary package offered is 17 LPA. Top companies like Tata Chemical, Ranbaxy, Sun Pharmaceutical, etc., visit the college to hire students. More than 60% of the students secured internships in industry. Both education and technical training are available. Higher-level roles like research scientist, patent scientist, etc., are offered here.
Infrastructure: IIT Gandhinagar is located in one of the best locations in India. It has exclusive campuses with a library, exclusive hotels with multiple daily outlets, and two agglomerations. It has a sports stadium with impressive sports facilities, an Olympic-size swimming pool, badminton courts, basketball courts, etc. It also has two cricket and football pitches.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful but their teaching is not at all good. Students are not happy with teachers. Some teachers take 3-4 days leave in a week. Otherwise, the college is good. Semester exams are a little tough and the pass percentage is 57%.

Placement, campus life, research and growth - IIT Gandhinagar.
Placements: In 2024, IIT Gandhinagar placement has seen a recession. About 164 students have registered for the placements, of whom 125 students successfully secured a job. The average package was Rs 18.20 LPA overall. The average package of BTech CSE students was around 22.73 LPA, while MTech CSE students secured an average package of 21.05 LPA. Still, it is better than last year, in which 398 students registered, of whom 163 were placed, making an average package of 19.60 LPA. This year, one of the 4th year electrical engineering students got an offer of 48 LPA.
Infrastructure: One of the best thing I liked the most about IIT Gandhinagar is its sports facilities. If you are a sportsperson, you should definitely opt this. It has a sports complex which has indoor playing facilities for volleyball, badminton, basketball, and table tennis. Also, 2 indoor swimming pools are also available 24/7 except for Monday, which is the cleaning day. The Gym here is very large and fits with AC. Talking of outdoor games: it has 2 big grounds for cricket with big lights, which are typically in stadiums; it also has a big ground for football around which an athletic track was drawn. Net practice for cricket and tennis is also available. Coming to the hostel: All room have AC, which is centrally controlled. One downside for freshmen is that you have to adjust in a 4 sharing, which is built for 3. 4th year students get a single sharing room. All the bathrooms are properly cleaned every day. It has support for both cold and hot water to bathe with. The lights are automated. Each floor in the hostel have a fridge, one water cooler, one microwave and an induction cooker. They also provide laundry facilities twice a week. Mess food are nearly nice for veggies ( as Gujaratis prefer veg more) and you have to pay an amount of $60 for eating nonveg (but egg are free). Inside the campus canteens, Amul shop, general grocery, stationary and sports shops are available. library is best as long as you not opt for story books. All classrooms are connected with ac, 2/3 projectors. Labs are very well maintained and have great facilities. You can go anytime and 3d print a part you want to. Inter-Hotel movement is allowed and there is also no restriction for going out of campus in the night. The college provide bus facility to go out of campus to nearby by market. The unlimited wi-fi is available all places on campus, giving an average speed of 700mbps mbps on the phone and 250mbps mbps on the laptop. Of course you can connect laptop with ethernet to get higher speed. We have a students lounge inside the campus which has games like football, chess, etc. The unique thing I discovered here is the skywalk. Most of the hostels and mess are connected with an overhead bridge.
Faculty: I am joined in the ICDT branch. Of course, after the breakthrough in AI, it will flourish in the future. Also, there is going to be new industries setting up in Gujarat. The curriculum includes VLSE Design, Microelectronics, Physics of Transistors, Asynchronous Circuit Design, Analog CMOS IC Design, IC Design Lab, Nanoscale Device Engineering, Microfabrication and Semiconductor Process, Machine Learning, Memory Device Technologies and Applications.
Other: I choose this course because it is already available in IITH and gained a much more demand in 2-3 years. I also think that similar will happen hear also. The course does not contain more electronics topics, it mighty added for the future batch. Coming to event IIT Gandhinagar is not performing that much good. The Ganesh Chaturthi was held in a smaller way. Not much decoration and not much sounds and stuff like that. I thought that there will be garba nights during Navratri but as soon as holiday announced most of the students gone home. Our cultural fest is going to be held in march or so. Other clubs are also organize their fest from November onwards. But you get lot of extracurricular activities to do. Too much project to keep you engaged. You will be making car models, prepare the design of your own product and making that and lot more. This provides a great platform to show your design and innovative skill.

The college infrastructure is very good. I am disappointed by the overall placement.
Placements: Our college has a good placement ratio. This year, its placement was 76.02%, with the college average package being 19.02 LPA. Note the difference in college average package and branch average package; both are different. From my course, 98.9% was placement ratio, and internships are available in Samsung, Microsoft, etc.
Infrastructure: We have good speed of Wi-Fi around 100 MB/s, with fully furnished labs. The classroom and library are amazing. The library also has a kids' zone and full ACs. It's like a wow! It has a very wide collection of books and resources and even contains CDs. We have various shops inside the campus.
Faculty: We have a different curriculum from all the IITs, which makes our IIT unique. Teachers are very knowledgeable, and if you go to them, they are always ready to help. The curriculum will guarantee you will be industry-ready. The semester exams are at a moderate level, and the pass percentage varies with each subject.
