The course curriculum at IIT KGP is highly structured, compehenssive, and designed to build strong fundamentals in engineering and scientific thinking. One of the reasons I chose IIT KGP was that my rank of JEE Adv. I got, in which best college with best branch I am getting is it. The curriculum is updated regularly to ensure relevance with modern technologies and industry standards. Exams are held twice every semester mid sem and end sem along with classtest and lab tests and viva in labs.During college you always feels that exams comes very quickly because your whole time is utillised in activities and sports and socities will onsume your time a lot therefore time is college slips like butter.

Campus Life

My experinace with campus life at IIT KGP has been extremely enriching and vibrant.The campus atmosphere is energetic, diverse and full of opportunities to grow academically, personally, and socially. The thing I like most is in college you surely learn how to communicate and learns skills of time management. IIT KGP hosts some of the biggest festivals in India. Spring Fest, the cultural festival held in early new year.Kshitij, the annual Tech fest held around JAn - Feb. THE central linbrary is amoung the best in the country, offering a massive collection of books,jornals, reserach publications, digital resources,and online academic databases. It provides access to national and international publications, making it an excellent place for self- learning and research activities. Classrooms are equipped with modern teaching technology. Sports and extracurricular activities are a very imporyant part of campus life. IIT KGP offers world class sports facilities including atehletics tracks ,swimming pools and multiple corts for different spirtsnoutdoor and indoor both are included. There are nu merous student run clubs and socities that cover a wide range of interstes in Tech and cultral activities.

Hostel Facilities

The hostel facilities at IIT KGP are well- organized and designed to support student life comforatbly. Each student is provided with basic furniture including a bed,study table,chair,cupboard and a ceiling fan or AC in few hostels. Rooms are well-ventilleted and spacious in few hostels while some have.... High speed LAN and wi fi connectivity is offered tpo each student The mess food quality is decent and healthy, with a well-planned menu according to institute but reality is quite different but quality is ok, only problem is lack of different menu there is only paneer and potato in meal mostly and brekfast is quite good with variety. Snacks is also provided in evening. The hostel registration process is straightforward, usually completed during admission through the institute portal and document verification on arrival. Hostel fees are afforadle compared to private accomadation.

Admission

Other colleges I applied for is IIT Delhi because it is nearer to my home and is well reputed college and have a great field in Tech.I opt this college because I am interested in Tech field. I finally chose IIT KGP beacuse it is providing me better branch than IIT Delhi and I got interested in this college beacuse my teacher in myh senior schoo is also from IIT KGP they taught me a lot of stories of there college time and I talked to some seniors of college for admissionb regarding prespective so they advised for IIT KGP.Therefore I chose IIT KGP over IIT Delhi. Admission processs of IIT KGP is quite student - friendly and easier because it is fully online application process via JOSAA platform after passing JEE Mains and JEE Adv. exams and there are few documentation for admission but they are quite easy to issue. cutoff for IIT KGP is not fixed every yera cutoff floats depends on paper level.

Faculty

The faculty to student ratio is very good and, and most professors are approchable and supportive. One faculty I admire most is Kamalakashy Sir. His eaching style is extremely clear and student friendly.His classrooms sessions are interactive, and make students mindset to think logically and approach problem analytically, which really helps in building a strong academic foundation. While every professor has a different teaching style, some course fell a bit fast-pased and some professors are strict in every part of course but they are only strict to make student sincere. There are two exams per semester as end sem and mid sem and two class-test and weitage of each are 50%,30%,20% respectively. Mostly all students get passed and no one fails except few(4-5) who never attend class and are not serious in academics.

Night Life

4

Nightlife at IITKGP is a unique and enjoyable experience. While it is not atypically city-stlye nightlife with clubs and pubs, the campus has its own vibrant night culture where students hang out, study together, and relax after a long day of classes. The campus feels safe, and students often stroll around late night. Major facililities like the central library, acdemic building, and gyms genrally close by 9:00 pm. But many hostels gym and librarya nd canteens remains open till late night like2 :00 to 3:00 am. Some famous hangouts in IIT GKP are Gymkhana, ADDA, CCD, Helipad, Tikka, Hexagon are some frequently used space for night outs by students group of friends or there department.

The campus placements happen in final year of the course. There is a well established placement cell to conduct the on-campus placements.

Over 90% students got placed from across every department and details of the placement is also available in the college official website. I have gotten a job from the on-campus drive to a core company.

Placement Experience:

The placements of our college are below average. Studies for placement are more or less relevant from second semester. companies like tcs, amazon etc do visit our campus however very few are selected with package above 4-5 LPA. Most of the students seek out for higher studies and that's my plan too.

Placement Experience:

After the 6th semester, the students are eligible for placements. Mass recruiters like TCS, Wipro, Infosys, Accenture, Capgemini, etc visit every year and pick up 80-100 students per company. Other companies like Amazon, Thoughtworks, Etc also visit the college. The highest package offered by our college is 15LPA by Thoughtworks. Every year around 75-80% of students get placed on campus. I plan to get a good job work for 2-3 years and then apply for Masters. Overall the placement is very nice in this college.
