Remarks :
The college has a very good infrastructure and its still growing. It has done well for a new IIT, is recruiting good faculties, providing good facilities to students. So thats my positive remark. But at the a same time it has to try to improve its placements and placement process, improve upon faculties teaching skills etc.
Course Curriculum Overview :
Course curriculum is same as Older IITs. In first year students of all branches have to study common paper mostly basic science like physics, chemistry and maths. After first year you get to study as per your branch. In each semester we have one mid-semester exam and one end semester exam. Industrial visits are organised. The curriculum is outdated and helps little in on campus placements. But seniors guide us well.

Concessions are given on tution fees for economically backward sections which is 67% for person having income less than 5 LPA but greater than 1 LPA. Bank loans with interest waived is provided.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
The college offers the MCM scholarship for students belonging to economically backward section, this scholarship pays them around 8000 per year or more depending on necessity. SBI offers student loans with reasonable interest rates according to my knowledge.
Campus Life :
Extracurricular activities include the technical fest Celesta and Techno cultural fest Anwesha and many other fests associated with cultural and sports activities. These fests are of good quality. Necessary Labs are there in every department with adequate equipment and facilities. Sports complex has been newly built, but the teams and training facilities are still a work in progress. Gender ratio is 1: 7.
Hostel Facilities :
Hostels are new. Many new hostels are being constructed. First years Btech share hostel with two other students. 2nd year with one other and single rooms for 3rd and 4th years. PhD and mtech get single rooms.
Alumni/Alumna :
Seniors are very friendly. They help in guiding us. They also teach us how to present models and projects to the external examiner. Our alumni come in our college and motivate us through speeches. Overall it is a great experience.
Admission :
The process of entering into any IIT is same. First apply for jee mains. You get to write jee mains twice. You get percentile based on the best one of the two exams you have given. if you qualify you can apply for jee advanced. On getting a good score in advanced you can choose a branch in any IIT.
Faculty :
Every week a course will have 3 lectures. If the course also has a lab then we would have a lab in the week too. Faculty are good. They have a strong research background. Many have done PHD in IITs and foreign institutions. They lack a bit in teaching skills though. But if you approach them personally they can help you lot more.
