Entrance Preview:

I gave the JEE entrance exam. I do not remember my scores (and they are not important as well because the format keeps evolving). I also did not specifically opt for this course, because they have you fill out a long preference sheet. So it was more as if I was assigned this course.

Remarks:

I would say it is one of the best collage in india. there are few lot of good things like a very good hostel, one of the best mess and well equipped lab but having said that there is also a lot of scope for improvement as i think the new faculties although they are coming from top institutes worldwide but they need to understand and learn how to share knowledge because each one of them are knowledgeable but what matters most is the way the knowledge is transferred .

Entrance Preview:

IIT JEE, I chose this course over others as iron and steel making was my interest area, which forms an integral part of the metallurgical eng. course. Admission process included 2 exams, 1 for screening through an objective test of Maths, Physics and Chemistry, while the other being a subjective exam for each of these subjects. Around top 5000 of the total 3 lakh candidates were finally granted admission into the IITs.

IIT Kanpur: 2 Answered Questions

What is your review of the earth sciences department at IIT Kanpur?

Vijay SarnaikStudied at IIT Kanpur

The Earth Sciences is a Department imparting education related to the study of Earth and its geological reliefs. The best part about this Department is that every course here overlaps with some or the other course of other departments making it a multifaceted one.

Earth Sciences curriculum overlaps with many courses in Material Science and Physics, Civil and Chemical, and even Electrical and CSE. This provides diversity in the overall learning experience of the course making it very interesting.

The only major issue is that due to common courses, the curriculum is vague and has no well-defined structure and content. We hope that this flaw is taken care of in the near future.

The program provides versatile job prospects even in the field of Satellite Remote Sensing, weather prediction, and geothermal power plants.

Is IIT Guwahati becoming the next IIT Kanpur?

Debdeep Majumder
Saugata NayakIndian Institute of Technology, Kanpur (2020)

Both IIT Guwahati and IIT Kanpur are well-respected institutions, known for their high-quality education and research. Comparing the two is already justified and saying that one institution is becoming the next of the other is more so. Both institutions have their strengths and areas of expertise. Yet, if I was to choose one I would have always gone for IIT Kanpur. 

Some points that favor my preference are as follows:

  • The quality of coursework at IIT Kanpur is extremely challenging and will keep you on your toes always. It offers the best quality of education and you will learn much more than other IITs if you are regular to classes and take your academics seriously,
  • The usual schedule of a student at IIT Kanpur is not always jammed, unlike the general opinion. The timings of the clubs align with the classes and you can take out time for both if you are good at managing your time well.
  • Another challenging aspect of IIT Kanpur is its tough grading system, (10,8,6,4..) under which anything below 10 is 8. Thus you are under tremendous pressure to maintain your CGPA and is enough of a motivating factor.

Overall, even if Guwahati was to be compared to IIT Kanpur, it still has a long way to go until it becomes the next IIT Kanpur.
