It is a good college for bachelor's degree with a decent crowd and learning experience.

Placements: The placements are decent in our college. For main branches like mechanical, EC, CSE, and chemical engineering including food technology, the campus placements are available and a lot of students have benefitted. The average salary package offered is around 6 LPA - 7 LPA and big companies like Amazon and Intel also recruit the students.

Infrastructure: Hostels are decent in HBTU. There are separate hostels for both girls and boys. The mess is run by students themselves but the ambiance is good. The campus is clean and huge so students do enjoy the premise. The new hostels are better and provide a lot of leverages to the students.

Faculty: The majority of our faculty members are from IITs and few are from NITs making them accomplished enough to teach us. The courses aren't too tough as we have faculty members for all courses. There are smart classes that make learning easier. The courses covered all the basics that you need to learn followed by practicals. The semester exams are also decent enough and almost 85% of students got passed.

Other: There are separate clubs in the premises which will enable students to learn and grow better. The crowd is good as the selection criteria is better and the campus is beautiful.

Dissatisfaction in every field

Placements: For M.Tech there are no separate placements. Although they will allow M.Tech students in some companies mainly in the IT sector, there are negligible placements regarding M.Tech students. In my M.Tech course duration, only one company allowed M.Tech students and for teaching, no college prefers HBTI students.

Infrastructure: As a government college, the infrastructure is not good. The library facility is okay but they will not provide it 24-hours. Canteen and mess are okay and hostel rooms are not very good. Classroom conditions are very poor and dirty. Lab conditions are similar to classrooms as very few systems were working properly.

Faculty: Some faculty members are good but some are the worst. In my M.Tech course duration, I think 1 or 2 faculty members who taught us were good and knowledgeable but they took very few lectures. Some of them have seriously no knowledge and I don't understand how did they become faculty members. Many subjects are covered by guest faculty members as professors have no time for students.

Other: It is one of the oldest and prestigious engineering institutions of India. Although it is not same as its old glorious days but it still has name and respect everywhere due to its students. Now it has become a University and will start conducting as the same since session 2016-17. For infrastructure, the college building is really old, although strong but still not attractive like modern day colleges. No Wi-Fi in the campus for now, except for computer science department but high speed LAN is available in all department. Hostel facility is good enough for B.Tech first year students, but for later year and M.Tech students, hostels are far away from main campus and that too isolated. PGs and flats are available in nearby areas like Nawabganj, Azad Nagar etc. Well qualified faculty members indulged in various research activities are available here but all guest faculty members are not good enough. Still one of the best colleges in UP. Placement for B.Tech students is very good. Many big PSUs visit the campus every year and take students. Other big private companies also offer good packages. No placement for M.Tech students though.
