A long yet wonderful roadmap at IIT KGP

Likes

The infrastructure and lab facilities are outstanding but the coursework is very rigorous and it should be considering it as an old IIT

Dislikes

The work flows at a very high pace here in the MTech course as we are supposed to do our coursework alongside our projects , internships and other works

For the odd semesters the fees are around 60k in total and for the even semesters it's around 55k for general Category students. For SC and ST candidates there is a relaxation of around 6k in the tution fees per semesters. The library allows 6 books to be issued at once for gen students and around 11 books for SC and ST candidates. There are stipends for the TA students for the MTech program which is 12,400 rupees monthly. For MS students it is around 37,000.

A fine place.

The fee structure of the MTech is INR 232000 in total for a year and it is INR 4.43 lacs in total for 2 years. However, the students are required to pay for the accommodation facilities and mess availability. The institute extends financial support to the needy and deserving students by offering a wide range of scholarships and financial assistance which can also used a fee waiver during the admission time.
