Course Curriculum Overview :
I chose this course to get a degree from IIT Madras and to study from IIT professors this was affordable for me and was flexible enough to work for other goals too. Since this is an online degree there is no relevance to student: faculty ratio as one teacher can reach to crowd of millions via video courses. Every faculty is an IIT graduate or post-graduate or PhD holder from reputed national or international colleges, the teaching method is really impressive with theory videos followed by practice questions just after the video to learn the practical use of theory, the doubt sessions, and academic support is also very satisfying for one who wants to study. The time of term exams depends on the number of subjects 1 hour for 1 subject is given, and the difficulty level is not too much if you have sufficiently practiced and submitted all graded assignments on your own.
Internships Opportunities :
Students are getting good internship opportunities in their degrees. Companies like Nissan, McKinsey and Company, godrej, geeks for Geeks have hired some interns from the degree, I am not sure about the stipend.
Placement Experience :
One becomes eligible for placements once a foundation and diploma and BSc degree are completed. The placement stats and info are very limited as the degree is new so no information about it. I will prepare for cat and will go to iims for pg doing this degree just to grab a graduation degree and learn from iit madras.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
For the foundation course, the fee is 32000 and the for diploma and degree level the fees are different. For exact details of the fees, I would recommend visiting the website study.iitm.ac.in for the latest and accurate information as it keeps on changing as the degree is new. If you have a lower family income and you belong to a lower cast the fees can be as low as 1.50 lakh for a whole degree of 4 years If you do not belong to any of the above categories, the maximum fee you will pay is around 5 lakh for the whole 4 years of a degree. There is a fee reservation by CSR funds. And a scholarship for good academic performers. I have not got any job yet, I am in the first year of course.
Campus Life :
There is no campus life as the degree is fully online. But there is an annual fest named Paradox organized every year in May on campus in IIT Madras, Chennai. There is no offline library but the books and study material links and PDFs are shared on the portal by professors from Time to time. No classrooms, as the course is online. No extracurricular activities on campus. However, the degree has clubs and societies for student welfare. There are many societies and clubs like Sahara the social welfare society of iitmbs and Boundless the travel club.
Admission :
The only eligibility for this course is that one should have studied mathematics in his/her class 10th, apart from that there is no other eligibility to opt for this course. One can find the application form, fee details, and application dates by visiting the official website of IITMBS which is study.iitm.ac.in. One can get reservation benefits if he /she has less family income and based on caste too. To get detailed information one should check the details through the website only for precise and updated information, everything is mentioned there. also one needs documents of proof to get any fee reservations. No, the admission process is overall good and fulfills the need.
