Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure available for our course/department like Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, and the library are very clean. We feel good to spend time there and they are very good. The quality of facilities in our hostel is good. The quality of food in the mess is delicious.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable on my campus. The teaching quality is good. The course curriculum is relevant and it makes students industry-ready. Semester exams in this college are difficult but if we do hard work, we can get a good percentage.

Other: I chose this course because it is easy so that I can give time for extra skills and it is useful for placements. The best thing about my course is it is easy and interesting.

It is absolutely the best experience of life with a green campus and the best placements.

Placements: The overall placement of IIT Bombay is good. Around 90% of the batch is placed every year with a good amount of package. The highest domestic package is around 1 crore per annum, while the international package is around 3 crore per annum. The average package is 20 LPA to 30 LPA for Computer Science and related branches, while the other branches in core domains have an average package of around 12 LPA to 20 LPA. The top recruiting companies are all the big MNCs and tech companies like FAANG. Top roles offered are in consulting, finance, software, ML, data science, etc.

Infrastructure: The overall facilities in classrooms and the library are really good. All classrooms, library, and study rooms are complete equipped with AC, Wi-Fi, and LAN. Overall, hygiene is also maintained everywhere. The hostel facilities vary depending on the year we belong to. The hostel for 1st-year students is really good, with enough space in all rooms and clean. But in our 2nd and 3rd-year hostels, the infrastructure is not good, and the buildings are also old, but hygiene is still maintained. The mess food is not up to expectations, but we can easily survive eating that food.

Faculty: All faculty members are highly educated and experienced in the teaching field. Most of the professors are from big colleges like IITs/NITs and have done their higher studies from great foreign universities. So, the teaching quality is really good. The course curriculum is also perfect, as it gives a proper taste of the actual work that happens at the industrial level. Some field trips are also carried out by professors for students in some of the courses to give students proper experience of how work actually happens on a big scale in industries.

Other: I choose this course as I want to explore the metallurgical engineering field, learn more about metals, their extraction, and properties. The college life here is the best part. There are many fests organized throughout the year, creating a vibrant environment on the campus. The campus has sports fields for every sport we want to play, like both indoor and outdoor courts. We also have a gym, yoga rooms, and rooms for cultural activities. There are scholarships are also provided by the college based on parental income.

4.0

College provides good infrastructure and facilities.

Placements: Around 76% of students get placed. Others go for startups, freelancing, or higher studies. The highest package is around 60 LPA, and the lowest is around 7 LPA. Top recruiters for core roles include Intel, TSMC, Samsung, Applied Materials, Tata Steel, and GE Aerospace. For non-core roles, companies include Deloitte, Accenture, EXL Services, McKinsey, Goldman Sachs, and Morgan Stanley. Around 85% students get internships in companies like Applied Materials, Deloitte, and Morgan Stanley. Top core roles include Junior Researcher and Junior/Senior Engineer, while non-core roles include Analyst and Software Engineer.

Infrastructure: Facilities are excellent. The department buildings are well maintained and renovated. Classrooms are fully air-conditioned with large screens, speakers, and smart boards. The library is huge with a large collection of books and also has a digital library. Labs are good and useful for practical work. The mess food is decent, like home-style food. There is a hospital inside the campus. Many canteens are open till late night with affordable food. There are different sports courts with near Olympic-standard facilities.

Faculty: Professors are well qualified and very helpful and friendly, not too strict, and have strong knowledge of the subjects they teach. The teaching quality is good. The curriculum is relevant, with the first year building a strong foundation, helping students become industry-ready. The difficulty depends on the course, but it is generally moderate with relative grading, and most students pass easily.

Other: I found the course interesting as material science is applied in everyday life. The coursework is sometimes stressful because of managing multiple things at once. The events are very exciting, and Mood Indigo and Techfest are among Asia’s biggest cultural and technical festivals.

IIT Bombay college review - campus & student life.

Placements: 1. 85.51 percent of students were placed in Metallurgy and material science department of engineering. 2. Highest package: domestic = 1.68 crore/year; international = Rs 3.67 crore/year. 3. The top recruiters are usually Google, Microsoft, Apple, and IBM.

Infrastructure: The lecture hall complex is 10/10. It is big, air-conditioned, and equipped with high-speed Wi-Fi. Some of the hostels are good and some are bad. I got Hostel 1 in my first year and Hostel 2 in my second year, and I am fortunate that both of these hostels are great in terms of infrastructure and food quality.

Faculty: 1. Most of the professors are very chill, helpful, and overqualified. However, the learning experience was not great for me. 2. For someone who wants to make a career in core, yes, the courses are relevant. 3. Most of the exams are very tough, but since there is relative grading, almost everyone passes.

Other: 1. I chose this course because it had relatively lower academic pressure. It helps me to give time to pursue my passion. 2. I wish the exams were comparatively less tough. 3. Events and fests are no doubt awesome on our big green campus. No issues with connectivity. Plenty of scholarships are there to support the student community.

Good Academics, placements and infrastructure.

Placements: The placements of IIT Bombay are one of the best in the entire country. The percentage of placements in my senior year was around 75 % for all the branches, and it is was similar to that in my own degree. The highest package was around 4 crores INR per year (but the posting of this job was somewhere in Europe, so the cost of living factors have to be accounted for), the lowest was 5 LPA, and the average was around 17-18 LPA. The top companies for my course are McKinsey and Co, BCG, Brain and Co, Goldmann Sachs, Morgan Stanely, Tata Steel, Rakuta, JSW etc.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure in-general is really nice. The labs (specially in the sub-department of spectroscopy) are really high-teach. The department building looks a bit worn-down, but the facilities such as seminar rooms, library etc. Are really up to the mark. The hostels, however are not very nice. The old hostels have really small rooms, and they are in constant repair mode. The new hostels, however, are really nice. A mess is present in every hostel, and a canteen is present in almost every hostel. The sport facilities are really awesome. We have facilities for almost any sport you can think about. Both indoor and outdoor facilities are provided (although outdoor facilities are available due to Mumbai rains for almost 4 months). There is a hosptial inside the campus which provides free medical facility for every member of the institute.

Faculty: The faculty here is very well qualified, all of them being from well-reputed institutes themselves. The teaching quality varies, some professors are really good teachers and some are not. However, every one of them is an excellent researcher. The curriculum provides you with strong theoretical fundamentals, and also provides opportunities for doing various projects. There are many professors here who work closely with the industry, and you can work with those professors to gain industry experience.

Other: I chose the course because I was interested in Physics and this was what my JEE rank was allowing me. The department tries to cover a lot of depth in the curriculum, and in some courses fails to cover depth. I wish it would improve the depth of some courses. The campus life is really happening and vibrant, with a wide range of activities in various areas such as culturals, sports, public service, politics etc. The campus is near Hiranandani, Powai which is a really posh area. So, the surrounding is really nice and convenient. There are various scholarships available based on your CGPA.
