Course Curriculum Overview
Materials Science is a blooming field in every industry. And the curriculum at IIT Bombay makes it so that we learn all the relevant stuff. The curriculum is well designed so that we can use the concepts we learned when faced with real life problems. There is an exam every 2 months. And they are somewhat on the easier side.
Fees and Financial Aid
The main tuition fees is ?1,00,000. The extra charges total to ?21,250. This makes my total fees per semester to be ?1,21,250. The tuition fees for SC/ST students is ?0. So they just have to pay the extra charges i.e. ?21250
Campus Life
The 2 major fests are TechFest and Mood Indigo which are typically held in the month of December. There are books on almost every concept or topic. The classes are well maintained with AC, 3 smart boards, 2 projectors, 2-3 green boards and speakers. There are inter-hostel sports GC inside campus. There are a wide variety of clubs run by students which include cultural, technical and sports club.
Admission
The college takes admission through JoSAA, which takes into account the JEE Advanced rank of students applying for admission. The cutoff for my course ranges from AIR 2400-4500. I had NIT Trichy as a preference in my JoSAA college list, but it was at a lower preference than IIT Bombay, which is why I recieved admission in this college.
Faculty
The faculty to student relationship is great. The faculties are always available in their respective office if we have any doubts or concerns. My favourite faculty by far is Prof. Naresh Patwari. He is very strict about punctuality but is very chill when any doubts are asked. There are two exams per sem, 1 mid-sem and one end-sem. The exams are moderate and most of the students make through it. The curriculum is as relevant as it gets
Night Life
Gyms are open till 8pm. The library is open till 11pm. But the other places are available to use 24×7. There are some restrictions on girls entering boys hostel at night, but those apply on after 10pm. Students are allowed to go in and out of campus 24×7 whenever they want, without any written consent required. The city outside (Powai) is active 24×7 and the locality is safe. Some popular hangout places are Boat house, Aromas, CCD, DESE building etc.
