Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

I didn't want to go into the circuital or core field. That's why I opted for this course. This course has mathematics along with AI and machine learning. The faculties are good, they have a huge amount of knowledge, and also they have great experience. They give in their full efforts. There are two main exams - the first one is the midsem which is of 30% weightage and is quite easy, and the next one is the endsem exams which are a bit tough and contribute to 50% weightage.

Internships Opportunities

4.5

There are many intership opportunities available. A student can apply to any company for internship in any year just a LOR from any professor is required. Many research internship opportunities are also available here.

Placement Experience

4

The placement stats are quite good here. We have an average package of 22 LPA considering every branch. While the average package of my branch is around 30 LPA. Students can do internship in any year they want. But the college conducts it in the pre final year And the placement in the final year.

Fees and Financial Aid

I come from Economically Weaker section and my family income is less. So I get a full fee waiver i.e my whole tution fee is exempted. And My course is BS, so I get a 60000 scholarship by DST inspire. So, my overall fee is around 90k per year and I get a scholarship worth 60 k per year.

Campus Life

5

We have two major fests here like Kshitij and the spring fest, both of them are conducted in January. In this year Kshitij was from 19-21 Jan and Spring Fest is from 26-28 Jan. Both of them are amazing. The library of IIT Kharagpur is considered to be the largest digital Library India. It has huge availability of books and journals and novels.

Hostel Facilities

2.5

I am a boarder of Pt. Madan Mohan Malviya hall of residence. It has 24X7 supply of electricity and water. The mess meal is not very good in this hall as This hall is on the bottom ranking in comparison to other halls But still it can be used for survival.

Admission

First of all, I appeared for JEE Mains and got a 99.71%ile and successfully qualified it. Then I appeared for JEE Advanced exam and got a total of 188 marks and a rank of 2177. After that we were contacted by Jossa for councelling. We have to put choices in that according to your preferences.All the information were conveyed by JOSSA. I have availed EWS(Economically Weaker Section)reservation benefit, which has 10% reservation. Yeah the admission process must be a little faster and the website should be able to handle more traffic at once.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I choose my course that chemistry because of the fact that I had got the rank that came under it and another reason is chemistry department is quite old here even if kanpur chemistry department is better for core, you will get chance for non core too here. Courses now deal more on chemistry related stuff. No need for course improvement Frequency is near end and mid sem there will be exams mode

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course for the first year is easy overall , maybe challenging for biology students because involvement of Maths in the curriculum but they can decrease their load by practicing Maths problems, asking doubts, approaching the instructors or their personal mentors. Otherwise the course is mixed in a good way with theoretical and practical part. Labs are conducted of Physics, Chemistry, Biology and CS in first year. You can choose CS as an minor in higher classes.
