Course Curriculum Overview :

The course curriculum is very up to date, like many colleges start programming with C language but our college starts with python which is a very good step, also in first year there's a computational thinking subject which helps us to understand coding fundamentals. We have a very good curriculum according to market demand in data science. Teaching methods needs some improvement like there must be some live class regarding the whole week but it's acceptable. The frequency of exams is like we have a term of 4 months and in that there're 3 exams (quiz1,quiz2,end term) and there're weekly assignments which are graded

Internships Opportunities :

Many companies like Aditya Birla group, ITC, Deloitte, And many data science based companies offered internships The average stipend of internships is around 25k/month as of now and many students are securing their jobs in companies

Placement Experience :

In there 2nd or 3rd year students become eligible for placements, although college provide many internships and placements but still the average package is 8lpa as of now which is good. Many companies like Aditya Birla, ITC , Deloitte visited and hired some students I have no plans for masters as of now and will try to get placed If no on campus placement, then we can get a job offer off campus as the curriculum and skills will be up to date

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

Fee structure is very easy, like the whole fee for 4 years is around 3.5 lakhs and there're fee waivers and you can get upto 75% fee waiver. There's a annual fest in our college in which we can visit campus and enjoy the campus of IIT Madras

Campus Life :

Paradox is an annual on campus fest which brings all the students come together and enjoy the iit Madras campus, alongside there're many other events like Sarang, marghazi etc. The central library have a tons of variety in books ????, the classrooms are modern and digital Sports and extra Activity are also very good There are many students run social groups on various topics like poetry, medicals, coding, e sports

Admission :

For application process one can visit study.iitm.ac.in. Website and find there the application form There's a entrance exam for this degree which is quite similar to JEE but there's not any negative marking, you need atleast 50% to clear the exam and it keeps fluctuating every year, there's not any specific cut off but need atleast 50-60% marks. The exams level is high, I mean they are tough compared to other colleges exams There's not any kind of reservation just clear the exam

Faculty :

Faculty members are well experienced and up to date according to curriculum, faculty to student ratio is ok ok. Teachers teach well, they are passionate about teaching. There are some course instructor alongside faculties to explain complex topics in a easy way. There are live sessions and meetings to interact with teachers

Placement Experience:

This course offers internships from 2nd year and placements from 3 year itself. Till now the bs students are not graduated , so there is no data of placements. But it is very relevant in the job market because data science is currently in a boom in the market. After college you could go for masters or PhD orelse you can apply for gate Da paper.

Placement Experience:

It's IIT so first of all placements are guaranteed itself, since it's a new course packages are not going that much high like regular students of BTech program but within two-three year it will match those standard as it's a demanding skill and growing industry. Also after this many students are planing for Gate exam as it's syllabus exactly matches with our curriculum for GATE DA paper .

Placement Experience:

Once you complete the third level of this course which bsc degree wo get eligible for campus placement opportunities. Since only 4 years have passed after starting of this course there is only one placement drive till now. But according to sources 2500 students got placed and many more got internship in many leading companies. As I have heard the highest package is around 12 lpa.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course has four levels foundation, diploma, BSc, BS. One can exit by completing any of these levels. The course includes study materials such as video lectures, practice assignment, graded assignment and much more on weekly basis. Thus, the level of education is high. While talking about exams each term has 3 exams: quiz1, quiz2 and end term. All are conducted within 1 month gap. Also the exams are centre based which makes it more competitive.
