Course Curriculum Overview

5

I will rate it best because it is affordable programm and all students from anywhere can able to do this course they also provide placement support and internship support to students. If you are pursuing any other degree or doing job else you do this degree.

Internships Opportunities

5

College provide intership opportunity after completion of 1 diploma. Companies like infosy Tata, TCS , apple , and many more . Stipend you get on and average 10 to 15 thousand per month. And if you perform better it will get increased.

Placement Experience

5

Placement is good average package got for this degree is 12 lakh per annum.many Students get placed . This is online degree so their is no exact information. After this I have to go for data scientist.

Fees and Financial Aid

Total fee is vary every year it depends on how many courses you opt . Per subject fee is 4,000 Their is no scholar's scheme but college give fee waiver as if your family income is less than 8,00,000.

Campus Life

2

Their are online clubs and offline fest for bs students call paradox held every year on campus. Ihabe no campus experience for that be because the degree is online so no physical campus visit experience . But the club's organise many programs and competition.

Hostel Facilities

1

I didn't visit hostel room of IIT Madras due to online. I live in pg . So sorry I didn't able to give details about mess and hostel. For this you have to visit it or you can explore it on youtube. So you get some ideas.

Admission

This is an IIT which is much better than the other colleges And one main pros is the fee structure is affordable than the other colleges. Admission process is to give qualifier exam or if you qualify jee mains you got direct admission.

Faculty

5

College faculty is ok ok . And the lecture that they are providing on weekly basis is might be boring. They provide live classes for every subject to solve doubt of students. The pattern is that you have to complete all weekly assignment and graded assignment on time to eligible for end term exam . Exam Pattern is 2 quize and 1 end term exam For programming subjects you have to give oppe . For qualify or to pass in every subject you have atleast 40 percent marks in subject. For entering in this program you have to give qualifier exam and also you get direct admission if you qualify jee mains.

Placement Experience:

IIT Madras BS has placement support through its online placement portal and the Industry Interaction Cell (IIC), but it should not be treated as a guaranteed “campus placement for everyone.” Eligibility usually comes after reaching a certain stage (generally after at least one Diploma level), not from the Foundation stage. Recruiter participation is strong and many companies hire through the portal, but the number of offers changes each cycle and depends on role needs and student profiles. Packages often quoted include around ?25 LPA highest and ~?10 LPA average, but outcomes vary a lot by CGPA, skills, and projects. Some reports mention ~60% on-campus placements, but it’s safer to say results depend on portfolio and consistency. After the degree, the practical plan is to target data/software roles using projects + internships, while also applying off-campus; higher studies is another common route.

Placement Experience:

The IIT Madras BS program offers placement support through the online placement portal and the Industry Interaction Cell (IIC). Still, it’s not wise to treat it like a guaranteed “campus placement for everyone” because eligibility and company criteria matter a lot. Eligibility is usually after reaching the required level (commonly after at least one Diploma stage and meeting IIC/portal requirements), so it’s not from the early Foundation stage. Different reports mention large recruiter participation through the portal,one report mentions over 220 companies and strong overall participation, but exact offers made changes every cycle. So it’s best to write that companies visit through the IITM online placement portal and hiring depends on role requirements and student profiles. Recent reports commonly quote a highest package around ?25 LPA and an average around ?10 LPA for on-campus offers for this program. Roles typically align with software/data tracks like analyst, data engineer, ML/analytics roles, and related tech profiles, depending on skills and projects. The detailed report claims on-campus placement success around --60%, and higher when counting off-campus outcomes, but this is not an official IITM statement. So a safe review line is: placements exist and are improving, but outcomes depend heavily on CGPA, skills, and portfolio. A practical plan after completing the degree is to target data/analytics or software roles using projects + internships, and also keep an off-campus job search active alongside portal opportunities. Another common path is higher studies (MS/MTech/MBA) after building a strong base in math, programming, and projects.

Placement Experience:

BS in data science students have completed their 1st batch and got highest placement of 23 lacs and average of 8 lacs . So placement of electronic system will also revolve around this figure. After 3rd year students are eligible for placements. Most of the Bengaluru based tech company visited for this degree holders. I have a plan to go for higher studies abroad after completing this degree.

Everyone got placement somewhere or in campus in different paths . For a good placement like 70 la.khs to 1 crore you need to study from 1st year .

Placement Experience:

Placement statistics are low for now as the course is new but the highest package as far as I know was 25 lpa and avg package is around 8-9 lpa. It's not really about the package but the opportunities IIT Madras opens for you. My plan is to get a master's degree in the same field and continue from there.
