Course Curriculum Overview
I chose this course due to its placement record as it was the best I was getting and as Mechanical is an old branch it's a quite researched and safe field. Faculty faculty-student ratio is good like 1:17.4 . The grading is quite tough and the academic is rigorous. IITK is considered academically the most challenging IIT of all.
Internships Opportunities
All the companies you can think of come to IIT K to hive internship opportunities. just recently the winter season is over and some seniors got a 36 lakh sum for just those 2 months so it's quite fascinating. You have to do projects under prof and self and club for a good resume and must have a decent CPI.
Placement Experience
You get placed in your 4th year and the highest package was off campus around 4 cr and on campus was 2.4 cr and the average is 18 LPA around. If you sit for placement with a decent prep you are most likely to get placed. And yup I too am hoping for placements.
Fees and Financial Aid
The fee structure is quite good and affordable if you are under 6 LPA family income person and have no F grades in the previous semester you are given a full fee waiver for tuition fee yup you have minimum CPI criteria but that is nominal. Many scholarships are provided like MCM, inspire, and full fee waivers to SC, and ST students.
Campus Life
As it is an old IIT the campus life is awesome and the campus is huge. The city outside is not so fun but inside the campus is lush green and beautiful. All clubs on campus are active and if you have some different passion you can just start your own group of interest and scale it to society and then club.
Hostel Facilities
Rooms in the first year are good and they are quite spacious and we are provided with one table one chair, 24/7 electricity, wifi, water, the mess is ok-ish as you would get bored of food no matter how good it is. The registration process is smooth and will be done by you on your first day with guidance from staff and seniors.
Admission
I took Jee mains and advanced. It is the most common engineering entrance exam and if you want to enter my college's mechanical branch then you must have an AIR of less than 3200 as per the previous year's cutoff and if you have an obc reservation then may be around 8k. I think the admission process should remain the same for IITs.
