What Students Say

Likes

The abundant amount of greenery around the campus if one of the most beautiful things
The professors are super easy to approach and help you with difficult situations
The friends you make while struggling with the academics are the best

Dislikes

the more competitive nature in students making life difficult
hectic template with multiple labs are hard to manage
extreme weather throughout the year are just frustrating

Course Curriculum Overview

As to why i choose chemical engineering the curriculum here is highly core centric which actually helps us train what the real world companies needs in the highly qualified employees. the curriculum sometimes becomes very hectic resulting in stressful situations and dipression. the exams here are quite often and hold some certain amount of weightage according to the professor

Class Size: 109Course Fees: INR 100000 per year

Internships Opportunities

internship here are a bit difficult to get with the help of institute as you have to maintain an high cpi cumulative percent index and your chances of getting an internship is 1 in 3 but this is the case for college offered you can still apply for off campus offers.

Placement Experience

3.5

placements here are quite well and for the course i have enrolled we are expected to get an batch average of about 20 lakh. you are allowed to sit once for the placement from the institute that is managed by student-run committee called spo or student palcement office.

Fees and Financial Aid

tution fees is around 100000 per semester the hostel charges including the mess establishment and the medical insurance is around 16000 per semester apart for this you are charged around 3000 per month for mess fees. there are a bunch of sponsorships thats aids people with financial crisis

Campus Life

the campus life is great here its always active and people here are always doing something personally i have intrest in motorsports thus i have joined that club and here i work on learning the true engineering behind the making of a vehicle

Hostel Facilities

hostel facilities here are decent the rooms are a liitle cramped for the first and the second year students but it get better for the 3rd year and 4th year student getting single rooms. the food qulaity here is decent for what mess food provides everywhere else its great .

Hostel Fee: INR 16000 per year

Admission

the eligibity criteria was straight forward you are suppose to give the jee mains exam qualify that and then pass the jee advance the rank you get in the jee advance helps you get the course, for my course all india rank of around 3000 to 4000 is needed.

Faculty

The faculty to student ration is good in iit kanpur around 1:10 which plays a huge impact as it helps students to easily approach proffesors. The faculty here are very well qualified and usually have a basic approach towards teaching to mentor each student properly. I personally often interact with faculty

Life at VBSPU: A Balanced Mix of Learning, Challenges, and Growth.

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for campus placements from the 7th semester (4th year). Few companies visit VBSPU for placements, and most are mass recruiters offering IT support and sales-related roles. Since placement opportunities are limited, only a small percentage of students secure on-campus jobs. Average Package: ~ 3-3.5 LPA Many students rely on off-campus placements through LinkedIn, referral hiring, or applying directly to companies. Many students prepare for government jobs like GATE, SSC, or banking exams. My plans after BTech Freelancing & personal projects to improve skills and build a strong portfolio.

IITK From Sparsh's Perspective

I choose this college becouse of its flexible acdemic structure and its great Alum connections. Also this is the best college i am getting according to my rank and my interest in mathematics. I have Applied for IIT delhi in electronics. IIT Delhi is also a great college but when it comes to academic focus IIT delhi lacks there. Also there faculty administratation is so strict. if a student wants to start something or he/she has a new iniative for the college , he/she will face hard time. So I couldn't make it to IIT Roper CSE branch because my jee adance rank is not that great for the Roper' Computer science. So the Admission process here at IITK is not difficult. You just the originaly document which you have submitted in your josa counselling portal and you need to verify it once here usually a couple opf hours work. The cut-off for IITK varies-from branch to branch. For example the CSE of IITk open from Jee advanced general rank of 115 to 250....Read More

Life @ IITK

I chose IIT Kanpur over othe rcooleges because of its academic reputation, research opportunities and strong alumini network. I was also able to get seats in other IITs but I preferred IIT Kanpur due to its legacy . I didn't face rejections, but did not opt for some colleges even after qualifying due to lower research output, weaker placement stats. Admission process for B.Tech at IITK is through JEE Advanced exam, after qualifying JEE Mains. You also neend to satisfy cutoff for branches. Admissions are handled by JoSAA Counselling....Read More
