Good college and decent placement.

Placements: 60-70 percent of students from IT branch got placed. The highest package is 20 LPA, which was offered to 2 students, and the average is 11 LPA. Placement-wise this is decent since it's a state government college. While in the CSE branch the statistics are a little low and lag behind the IT branch.

Infrastructure: Not so very good hostels, especially the boys' hostel are okayish and not too shabby, but I want to mention one incident which took place in Ambedkar hostel, where the chef was washing potatoes with his feet and had slippers on, so not so good but okayish.

Faculty: Fair exams are conducted time to time and are monitored heavily and the faculty here is good and overqualified. Our faculty members have Master's or Ph.D. degrees from IITs. The curriculum holds together well. Since it's a state government college, the faculty is good.

5.0Placements4.0Infrastructure4.0Faculty4.0Crowd & Campus Life4.0Value for Money

Oil Technology don't include mineral oils and gases in HBTU.

Placements: HBTU holds a 100 percent placement record in the oil branch, with many of the students receiving more than one offer. The highest placement this year is 14 LPA, with an average package of 8 LPA, and the lowest is 4 LPA. The top recruiting companies include Ruchi Soya (under Patanjali), ExxonMobil, Reliance, and others. Almost 30 percent of the students in the 3rd year got internships, and almost 20 percent from the 2nd year in 2025. Apart from this, students from the 3rd and 4th years also perform research in the field of oil. The roles of oil technologists are offered.

Infrastructure: The college is equipped with Wi-Fi, advanced labs, and a vast library that has books that are almost 100 years old to the latest journals, research papers, and e-books. For oil, there are 3 labs (one for UG, one for PG, and one for advanced research and Ph.D.). The lab has some of the most advanced equipment in the field of oil, and even samples from IIT come to HBTU for testing in the field of oil. The campus has an infirmary for any medical issues, where a doctor is available 7 days a week, and a field for games.

Faculty: Most of the teachers here are supportive but you have to approach them if you face any specific problem or issue, they will surely look into the matter. The college offers some industrial visits, but they are rare, they do bring experts to teach about current developments in industry. End-semester is a bit hard, some teachers do hard checking (in Physics and electrical). To pass the end-semester, you need 15/50 and a total 40/100.

Other: My batch have 61 students, and the maximum seats are 63. HBTU is the central zone of Oil Technologies Association of India (OTAI), and if anyone is passionate about oil, then every year, experts come to view and support different research and accomplishments. If it's good enough, you may get funding. The oil Technology here does not include mineral oils. There is a good chance that you will not get a hostel due to its limited rooms, but there are about 4 PGs within 300 meters of the college. Do enquire about food in these PGs before joining any.

College is very good and has a powerful alumni network.

Placements: As of 2025, 59 students were eligible out of which 56 got placed in my branch in mechanical engineering. Placement percentage is 107%. Top recruitment companies are Samsung Electronics and TCS which often pick students in bulk. Almost 70% of students got internships from the campus.

Infrastructure: As we know, the college is very old thus the infrastructure is also very old but it gives chills too. The hostel is in bad condition. The mess food is below average for the first-year students. Water quality is bad as of now. Wi-Fi is available, which gives 8 GB per student per day but it is very slow.

Faculty: Faculty as we know are mostly from good colleges, such as IIT and NIT. Some of them have taught in foreign universities also. They are all very qualified, and most are Ph.Ds. Now about curriculum, it is as per NEP but it still lacks practical aspects.

Other: I chose this course because of my interest in mechanical field and campus events. The crowd is all good.

Average campus. Placements are excellent for technology & core branches, but average for CS and IT.

Placements: The placement for core and technology branches is excellent. No college of this rank can compete with it. This college is a savior for students with ranks below 60,000- 65,000. For CS/IT, the placement is average. If you are in the top 50%–60% of your class, you will get a minimum placement of 8–9 LPA, a maximum of 18 LPA or more, and the lowest around 3–6 LPA. Most students get jobs as the placement rate is above 90%.

Infrastructure: Currently, IT does not have its own department. First-year classes are held in the lecture hall complex. While second- and third-year classes are in the main building. Classroom infrastructure is average, with some air-conditioned rooms. Fourth-year classes are held in the Computer Science department, whose infrastructure is below average. A new extension for the CS department is being built, which will also accommodate IT students. Overall, the college infrastructure is average, similar to most state government universities.

Faculty: CSE and IT are the chillest courses in the college currently. Professors assign marks based on projects and give plenty of time for independent work. The curriculum is outdated. In the first year, students study irrelevant topics like paint and food technology. However, only the first year is difficult. Senior students say the other years are easy if you study regularly.

Other: This course is comparatively easier than others, but students must learn from other sources and cannot rely solely on the college. Teachers allow time for independent learning, which students should utilize. College events exist but are not very grand. Overall, they are above average. Fests such as the cultural fest Adhyay, the sports fest Agaz, and the technical fest are good and more than average.

My hbtu 3 years journey.

Placements: In my batch there are 80 students and almost all my senior classes have the same strength. Almost 90 percent students got placed and the package in my branch is around 11 LPA and the internship opportunities are very limited for CSE and Information Technology students.

Infrastructure: The boys hostel is not too satisfying in terms of cleaning and the infrastructure is also not too good but the greenery is good in the college. The campus is too big and the boys hostel provides very limited restriction so students can do many extracurricular activities.

Faculty: Some teachers are very good, they know how to reach or communicate with students. The semester duration is only 5 months, and the marking scheme is also average in this college. You will be prepared for any kind of exam after taking admission in this college.

Other: I chose the course because I have interest in CSE and the college fest is also held in April for 7 days. This is the best time of college and the crowd of batch is near about 80 in CSE.

The college is decent best.

Placements: The core jobs are not very high because, if you are someone wanting to work in the core field, that will be quite difficult, as the company pattern shows that they hire more students from M.Tech. But if you learn coding through the four years of B.Tech, then the chances for placements are quite high, as you would have the choice of going to the IT sector and other software jobs.

Infrastructure: HBTU has two campuses: East Campus and West Campus. The East Campus has two boys’ hostels for first-year students and a girls’ hostel for each year. The West Campus has hostels only for boys of 2nd, 3rd, and final year, Shatabdi Bhavan for cultural events, a cricket ground, a gymnasium, and other facilities. However, the condition of the hostel rooms is not of a very high standard. The hostels accommodate single, double, and three-seater rooms.

Faculty: The teachers and professors of each department are quite experienced and highly educated, but if you are thinking that the professors are going to teach you everything, that is not going to be the case. You have to take the initiative for learning new things. You need to ask the teachers to take extra classes and help with other things.

Other: The number of students in the Electronics Engineering batch for the year 2025–2029 is 69. The faculty is good and experienced and helps the students according to their problems, both academically and personally.

Answered 11 months ago

With an EWS rank of 43,033, you're unlikely to get CSE at HBTU (closing ~22k). But you're a strong candidate for core branches such as Chemical, Civil, Electronics, or Mechanical Engineering, where closing ranks go up to 50–65k. Consider ranking and counseling priorities accordingly.
