All you need to know for IIT BHU

Likes

Campus is pretty huge and there are many things to know about.
Varansi is a holy place so you always feel like you are connected to god.
Codinf culture of iit bhu is impressive and the cops club for coding is good.

Dislikes

Iit bhu has open campus which makes students here somehow uncomfortable.
AC's are not present in lecture theaters.
Many times i felt that administration here is somehow strict.

Student Snaps:

Placement Experience:

In 3rd year you can apply for internships and if you do it well you can get PPO(pre placement offer). Otherwise companies come every year in our campus for 4th year students and give a decent amount of package for those who study. 91% students were placed last year which is pretty good. I'm planning to work hard during these 4 years so that I can get a good placement at end of my 4th year

Can this college reach your expectations?

Likes

The first thing is of course the difference clubs to choose from. Also our seniors are so supportive and they help us in every possible way.
The alumni network is so vast that you can find iit bhu alums in any field you choose and they slso provide guidance at the base level
The professors here are do knowledgeable that you can also cone up with your idea and together do research as well

Dislikes

I disliked the fact that festivals are not celebrated well here.
Classrooms and hostel’s don’t gave ac so it becomes really really hot during summer

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course mainly because circutal cut off went too high and also because I liked these subjects thermodynamics, mass and heat transfer interesting and thats what chemical engineering teaches us. Faculty student ratio is approx 1:50. The faculty are class 1 ie whatever they teach it is completely based on full knowledge and research. They are also able to clear each and every question asked by the top students as well. We have 2 semesters per year and in each semester we have mid sem and end sem exams which are very difficult and the average is always very low but we have relative grading so no problem.

My experience

Likes

Here we not only focus on our academic performance but also get to explore other fields like music and sports.
It's proximity with local market is another thing I like. On weekends there are many places we can go to enjoy ourselves.
Our seniors are all friendly and our campus is ragging free.

Dislikes

We have open campus so we face many problems as the outsiders can freely roam inside.
It's infrastructure is rather old so it sort of make our campus out dated
There are no ACs in classroom hence it becomes so hot in summer.

Placement Experience:

IITs are known for their excellent placements. Students get their internship from 3rd semester and before graduating they have jobs in their hand and those who want to opt higher studies get opportunities as well to study abroad.The overall placement percentage was around 90%. I also plan to get a job after my 4 year course completes.

IIT BHU: 4 Answered Questions

What are the views of IIT-BHU students about Kashi Utkarsh?

Nivedita TrivediLives in Varanasi

My friend is an alumnus of IIT-BHU and he was a member of the Kashi Utkarsh too. He claims the organization is doing really well in eradicating the prevalent social constraints through the collective efforts of the group. The body convinces the financially weak families living in Varanasi slums to send their children to schools with the help of KU funding.

As easy as this may sound, the actual process is very tiring. The families are hell-bent against education and persuading them is a big task. The relentless efforts of the team members of KU and their compassion to serve the weak have brought massive changes in society.

However, some students of the institute don’t give KU the respect they deserve and are not ready to spend a single penny claiming that KU pockets the funds themselves.

If you visit the social media handles of the KU members, you will find a list of children who get into the formal education system along with their school fees being paid by KU. Dictionary the constant assistance from professors like Prof. Ashim Mukherjee with KU helps KU stay strong.

What are the changes that took place in the college after IT-BHU got converted into IIT BHU?

Nivedita TrivediLives in Varanasi

My friend was a student at IIT BHU and he witnessed a number of changes as the IT BHU got converted into IIT BHU.

The Vishwakarma hostel became a 3 storied building
Kashi yatra, the annual socio-cultural festival of IIT(BHU) Varanasi stayed open till 10.
The grading system first changed to absolute from relative and then finally back to relative grading.
Mid-semester tests were introduced in place of class tests.
One of the sandwich shops became a complete multi-storied restaurant.
The Chemical Engineering department was updated in many ways.
The students were no longer allotted single rooms.
The campus facilities were improved including the Internet connections.
The 90 % attendance rule was introduced.
The institute got 3 new directors.

These were some of the changes my friend witnessed after the IT BHU got transformed into IIT BHU.

What is your review of Indian Institute of Technology Varanasi (IIT BHU)?

Tithi SenguptaB.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology Varanasi (IIT BHU)

My review of IIT BHU will be based on some very common parameters.

Infrastructure: The academic buildings are not air-conditioned and are equipped with obsolete instruments. The hostels are surrounded by natural beauty but the living conditions are pathetic with cramped rooms and dirty toilets. The poor LAN connections are a major major problem here.
Faculty: The faculty again is very disappointing. some even lack basic knowledge and some are too arrogant to guide the students. The answer sheets are checked in a disorganized way and the pedagogy adopted is old school. So here, you will have to completely depend on self-study.
Research: The majority of the faculty focuses on administrative tasks and fails to encourage students to research work. The institute has no globally recognized research work to date.
Facilities: The library has poorly organized books and lacks good study material. The LAN network is another major issue faced by students here. The departments are closed by 6 ok and the library is locked by 10 pm. This is a major hindrance during exams.
Campus life: The frequent student activities make the campus life of IIT BHU lively and dynamic. A number of activities are organized in IIT-Gymkhana by the students and Kashi Yatra is the annual cultural festival of the institute. There are amazing sports facilities like huge grounds and fields for Cricket, Football, Badminton, and Tennis.
Placements: IIT BHU has one of the best placements among the top IITs. Currently, IIT Bhu Placements 2023 is being held and around 474 offers and 305 PPOs have been made. IIT BHU's highest CTC was recorded at INR 1.2 CPA. A total of 117 recruiters took part in IIT BHU Placements 2023. Top recruiters included Airbnb India, Uber, Microsoft, Accenture, Piramal, etc. Last year the highest CTC stood at INR 2.05 CPA which was offered by UBER.

Overall, IIT BHU is a great choice if you are willing to sacrifice the hostel conditions and self-study.
