IIT Kharagpur, An insight.

Remarks :

Lots of Freedom. Depends on the student to use it wisely. The college does not have intime, hence people can roam around anywhere nearly any time. This increases the safely issue. Also, due to too much feeedom, students end up in substanxe abuse quite often. It is upto the student to wisely go about the utilise the freedom to build good skill sets and interact.

Course Curriculum Overview :

The course consist of primarily subjects from architecture like Design,Building Materials, Estimation etc and subjects from other departments like Electrical Services, Stuctural Analysis, Mathematics, Economics etc. The course as a whole has the most workload compared to other engineering courses. With aorund 32 working hours per semester, it gives a true expression of an Architect's Job. The department also offers research programs in which students cam take part and work under professors and scholars. Exams are conducted twice per semester. For students of Architecture, however, submissions happen on a weekly basis.

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

I have not idea about loans but the college gives scholarship on merit cum mean basis. Annual income of less than 5LPA get their tution fee waived off. Every semester a list is made with the selected students who can opt for it.

The campus is LGBTQ+ friendly, Ambar, an institution helps to promote awareness. Pride march is also organised every year.

Hostel Facilities :

Yes I have. I stay in a single room which is alloted to boarders on random basis. The rooms are compact and comfortable. Food is great with lot of varieties. All hostels have common rooms which usually has a TV, a TT table and Caron board. Apart from that, some hostels have Badminton court, cricket pitch and football ground too.

Placement Experience:

Architecture dept. Doesn't give placements opportunities. Most of the students go for higher studies. So most of the companies don't come for placements. As for other engineering courses, the placement is top notch.

Just a single negative. The absence of maintenance of important labs. Rest everything is a positive, starting from faculty, their cooperation, care they take, opportunities provided by institution, affordability and so on.

Entrance Preview:

I gave NATA exam, I scored 120 out of 200, I opted for this particular college because i did not get chance in shibpur and jadavpur and all my options were open from other state, but due to expense I had to stay back and remained stuck with this hell hole.

Internships Opportunities:

Yes, they did provide me with an internship but slot got taken by someone else.

Remarks:

It is okay. But definitely there is huge scope of improvement. In many of the cases the management and the administration will only be better if the people working at the lower level be more efficient.
