+ 1 More

Course Curriculum Overview :

I chose this course as it was the best fitting as per my interests and my priorities. Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and computing as IIT Kharagpur is a nice blend of theoretical mathematics and Computer science courses at the same time. Term exams are taken twice a semester including mid semester exams and end semester exams.

Internships Opportunities :

In the third year of the course we are required to go for compulsory internships for which opportunities are provided by the college itself and based on our performance, we are also graded and it carries credits.

Placement Experience :

Placements are very good at all IITs especially in the old IITs and in some good branches the average packages go up to 30-35 lakhs per annum. All the big tech firms including Google, Microsoft, apple, etc.

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

The fees structure does not change a lot and is normally around 1.5 lakhs per semester at IIT Kharagpur including the hostel and mess costs. I am currently a first year student so I am not involved in any job right now.

Campus Life :

The annual tech fest at IIT Kharagpur is called Kshitij and it is held every year in the month of January. The central Library at IIT Kharagpur is one of the largest in the world and has almost all kinds of famous books and journals available there. The classrooms are Air conditioned with big projectors and blackboards

Hostel Facilities :

The rooms depend on the hostels in which one stays in but mostly they are good and spacious enough. The meal quality also depends on the hostel and it usually ranges afrom bad to fair and sometimes good. Hostels are usually cheap at IITs.

Admission :

The entrance exam for all Indian Institutes of technology is the JEE Advanced exam which is taken by approximately 2.5 lakh people every year who are selected through another entrance exam called JEE main exam, earlier known as AIEEE, which is taken by approximately 10 lakhs to 12 lakhs people evey year with 2 attempts per year. I got an AIR of 710 in jee main and AIR 1196 in jee advanced exam and chose IIT Kaharagpur BS in mathematics and computing as the course to go for.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I am new to this curriculum but I am happy with my decision. Median package of this year is 21 lakhs in this course and faculty are too friendly. Exams are a little on the tougher side. We will have field trips for the research purpose overall it's a very underrated branch And we can try non core if we want to...since there is a lot of free time

Placement Experience:

The campus placement is offered by CDC. After completing 2 years you get to sit in CDC interviews for internships, all the top companies for example google, BCG, McKinskey, and may others visits the college. And after 7th semesters you get to sit for placements. The highest packages goes around 2Cr. You opt for any profile SDE, data, consulting, product. I plan to get placed in product management after my degree.

Placement Experience:

Placements are good but you have to put a lot of efforts during the time of recession. Thus is the worst phase of the college life where you become stressed, selfish, and nervous. This is the tough scenario to get high packages.

Course Curriculum Overview:

It is a 5 years course. Course are quiet tougher than other B.sc colleges but it will be very effective if you are going in research field. It will also introduce you to the basic of research and it will help you in future. A habit of reading research paper are vey common in this couse work and will help in your phd. But if you dont want to pursue in research then it will be less relevant to you.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Courses at IISER Kolkata are not like usual curriculum in state or central Universities in India. IISER Kolkata 's academic curriculum is quite similar to that of US and European Universities. The focus of the curriculum is to teach and train us to make us researchers. So the courses are quite relevant if someone wants a career in research. Exams are very frequent in iiser Kolkata, apart from the mid semester and end semester exams, there are regular quizzes/class tests/surprisetests/assignments/grades tutorial problems every week.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I was already very interested in economics. My college has a healthy student to teacher ratio. For every 1teacher there is 4 students. Almost of our faculties have phD and master's done. The faculty is very interactive and makes sure the concepts are clear The exams are fairly standard and the exam timings are optimal.
