Course Curriculum Overview :

The curriculum is significantly based on learning the basics of every branch so that we have knowledge about the basics. Further the branch specific courses are pretty much well aligned and more well planned. My branch is chemical and we are learning about the process and the topics required. More branch specific subject should be added. The frequency and timing are pretty well good as our exams occur at 9 to 11 am and 2 to 4pm.

Internships Opportunities :

Many companies come in all branches. Eg. Google, IBM, Puma, Capgemini, Deloitte, EY, ICICI Bank, Cognizant, Aditya Birla Group, Lenovo etc. The highest internship offered was 32 lac per month to 3 students in on campus internship. 2 other students got the same offer in off campus trials.

Placement Experience :

Students can register for placement in two consecutive windows, one in July and one in January. After , the students are eligible for the placements through CDC(Career Development Centre). The highest package offered to a student during the 2022-2023 placement season was 2.68 crore p.a. (CPA).Average package goes around 29 laks p.a. Top recruiters are:- Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Intel, Qualcomm, Apple, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Barclays, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), Infosys, Wipro,etc Almost 93%of people were placed. My plans is to take a job and head further in the tech field.

Fees and Financial Aid :

I have paid 100000 fee for one semester. There are several scholarships for General, OBC and ST/SCs like MCM(Merit-cum-Means Scholarship). This Scholarship contains 1. If your family annual income is less than 5 lakhs Then you are eligible for 66% scholarship of the total tution fee 2.If your family income is less than 1 lakhs Then you are eligible for 100%scholarship. Some of my friends have paid only 33000 for one semester.

Campus Life :

IIT Kharagpur hosts several annual festivals, including: 1.Spring Fest A social and cultural festival that takes place in January during the spring 2.Kshitij A techno-management festival that features over 40 events and is considered the largest of its kind in Asia. The library at IIT Kharagpur has a large collection of specialized volumes and is housed in two buildings: The Central Library is the largest library at IIT Kharagpur and is located in the Main Building and Annex Building. It started in a small room in the Old Building in 1951. Great learning facilities like smart classrooms and well maintained labs, well contained physical and digital library and sports, auditoriums and many more are available One of the great clubs at iit kharagpur is Entrepreneurship cell,E-Cell invites entrepreneurs to speak to students about the challenges and rewards of entrepreneurship.

Hostel Facilities :

Each room is given to three people in sharing,provided with individual table,lights,chair and personal bed and cupboard. Meal is average,Menu has variety but taste of food is less than average. Students can register through the ERP system.

Admission :

I have applied for this college only because it was near to my home town and I really liked the campus amd the academics offered here. The admission process is by clearing the JEE ADVANCED exam and then by going through JOSAA counselling. The cutoff for this exam was 109 marks in 360 marks. The overall admission process was so smooth.

Faculty :

The ratio is nearly 1:13 ,The faculties are so energetic while teaching us, they always encourage us to try new things. There are several periodic tests happening here. The periodic tests account for 20% of the totals marks. The mid semesters exam accounts for 30%,and the end semesters exam accounts for 50%.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum is well developed and the major areas of learning are adequately addressed. It has prepared students for practice as well as for further education. I wanted to point at such aspects of teaching design that need to be developed : offerings of practical projects and a greater focus on interactive teaching methods. Exams are scheduledd but may prove to need extra assistane for comprehension of some of the contents.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is not that different from other colleges. At the beginning or 1 st semester we are made to complete the bridge course which basically includes stuff we read in classes 11 and 12. But then also they can't teach properly the already read topics.
