      College Infrastructure

      Neither good nor bad.labs are ok,cafeteria very bad, library ok, classrooms ok, auditorium very small,very few people can accomodate,main building is nice but some renewation needed,some branches have combined classes that should be separate

      Academics

      Academics is fine, some teachers are very good you will understand Everything but some are moderate,you cannot depend on teacher only,you have to study also,marking in exams is tough,many Students got back in many subjects some get year back to

      Placements

      Best thing about college is placement,it is better then many nit and iiit highest package 43 lacs in Amazon, placement in non core branches is fine specially in paint and plastic technology,cs has approximately 100% placement

      Value for Money

      Fees increasing every year but zero value of money,10% fres is increased every year,hostel and news feed is very high but give very bad food at mess, sometimes the sweet dish are finished if you go late in mess,the mess workers keep for themselve

      Campus Life

      Zero campus life,two campus East campus and West campus both are not good, there is nothing in the campus you can enjoy just sit in the hostel or play in the group which also not maintained, there is nothing in the comous to see

      Others

      Only placement is fine.No campus life,very old infrastructure and very bad, academics is fine,many students get good rank in gate and IES,if you only want placement then you can join but if you want campus life then it is not for you

      College Infrastructure

      The infrastructure being old is quite poor and the washrooms are not well maintained.Presently they follow smart class system by using digital board. Their is garbage split everywhere around college with no dustbins. The facilities and Equipments are also not well maintained

      Academics

      The teachers are experienced and have enough knowledge about their subjects. But some of the Facilities don't know the way to taught the students. Their is enough politics among teachers regarding students. The curriculum is updated and studies are conducted in proper sincere manner

      Placements

      The placements of 3-4 CSE students is very good but rrest on an average the placements are ok. They offer 100% Placements to Paint tech Students. But the average package is not too good among the Students

      Value for Money

      The fees for first year students is 1,25,000 and it is worth taken.. The fees is not high and not too low.

      Campus Life

      Overall the college is full of experiences and passion among students is long lasting. Due to the students confident nature the expectations from the college is very high in terms of fests or other Events held by the college. The location of the college is safe. It may handle emergencies too. Students can engage in extra curricular activities a lot and due to enough time after the college students can prepare for other examinations very easily

      Others

      Overall the college is good and the experience is above expectations till now. In terms of money like in fests and other Events don't expect anything from college.. It is a good experiencing college only because of Students

      Review of Harcourt Butler Technical University

      Verified Review
      College Infrastructure

      Infrastructure has been always a weak point for HBTU. Recently we have seen some positive changes like installation of smart boards in classroom and WiFi and it's improving day by day. Still some improvements are required to make it a better infrastructure.

      Academics

      I am a first year B.Tech. student of Plastic Technology which is a branch of school of chemical technology. The quality of teaching is good here. The syllabus is updated and similar to AKTU formerly known as UPTU.

      Placements

      The placement scenario in Hbtu is good. It's outstanding in branches like CSE and chemical engineering. Paint, plastic, oil and information technology have also very good placement. Overall we can say that placement in hbtu is quite good.

      Value for Money

      It's Rs 135000 per year. It is the new fee system applied from 2019 with the condition of 10% increase in fee every year.

      Campus Life

      Campus life in hbtu is amazing. You will surely love the environment here.

      College Infrastructure

      Our college have all necessary things, infrastructure, facilities and equipments. But except one thing - a gym for 1st year students. We don't have WiFi. Living spaces are very clean and hygienic. Food is good in 1st year. Hostels have very old infrastructure, which is worst part of this college.

      Academics

      Academics are good. Quality of teaching is moderate. Yes absolutely it makes us job ready . But you have develope some skills for your placement. It gives you an edge in interview . Keep learning is art of living.

      Placements

      Quality of placements are moderate. Every branch have their own percentage of placements. Highest salary was offered in computer science and engineering which was 60 lakh per annum. Average salary offered was around 8.5 lakh per annum. Which is quite good than some NITs.

      Value for Money

      It costs 1.35 lakh per annum.

      Campus Life

      Campus life is outstanding because you will get so much time to have fun and you can learn anything what you can. Location is fine. It is very safe.

      To be honest this college is average.

      College Infrastructure

      The college has average to substandard laboratories and other facilities. The classrooms are now equipped with electronic boards. The campus has wifi powered by jio obviously slow. The campus is clean on the outside but dogs can be seen roaming inside even the classrooms.

      Academics

      You will need to study everything on your own atleast in the first year. The teacher will explain you anything to you if you approach them but the classes are not very helpful. The facilities are guest faculty for first year students.

      Placements

      If you maintain a decent score and complete your internship properly you have a fairly high chance to get placed. The placements are higher for computer science, chemical engineering, and mechanical engineering, and paint technology.

      Value for Money

      The course cost 1,35,000 rupees in the first year and the fee increases 10% every year. The college is not exactly worth the money but it is not as bad as people say it is. However if you get any of the core branches in this college you should go for it.

      Campus Life

      All the sports activities are limited to hosteilers because they commence during the late hours. The doctor is only available for two hours a day so for any medical emergency you would need to visit a hospital.

      College Infrastructure

      Our college infrastructure is quite old and less maintained as its one of the oldest engineering college in the country. Our classrooms are now having smart boards and wifi but somehow we lack in our sports facility

      Academics

      Our academics is good , being in first year I am not the right person to answer this but faculty here is highly educated but quality of teaching and behavior changes from teacher to teacher and some of them are really helpful and kind

      Placements

      College placement depends on branch to branch most and highest placement goes from CS as other colleges but then we can see the dominance of non core branches like paint technology and plastic technology

      Value for Money

      You won't realise that it's a government college when you will see it's fees , HBTU charges 1,35,000/- this year this fees may further rise in upcoming years and hostel fees of 65,000 /- it's really high and nearly equal to those of private college

      Campus Life

      We have a really poor campus life. You won't spot ant one after 5 , we have two campus , east campus comprises of 1 year boys hostel , girls hostel of every year and educational structures were as 2nd,3rd and final year hostels are in West campus

      Building purani hai lekin achhi hai, Kafi maza aata hai. The infrastructure and the building design totally explains that building is hundred year old.Apart from the structure, hygiene is also commendable.

      Academics

      Teaching quality is awesome with experienced teachers. Concepts are taught in a good manner with no hurry.Due to good quality education , placements are higher which is one of the great proof. In nutshell HBTU provide good education.

      Placements

      Placements are best as compared to other colleges. Actually HBTU is known for its good placements . Computer Science placements are between 48 lakhs per annum to 60 lakhs per annum. Average for all branches is 7 to 8 lakh per annum

      Value for Money

      Course cost is little bit higher, but it Worth's.

      Academics

      Harcourt Butler Technical University being a well renowned government college have well qualified teachers but they are not that prone in teaching just like other government institutions so it totally depends on your caliber

      Placements

      Placements are quite good you can get your desired or deemed packages by a engineering graduate the average package is around 5 lakh and it goes as high as 48 and 60 lakhs for specially in cs/it branch.

      Value for Money

      In this aspect the college might seem to you not that value for money as the fees is high for first year it is almost 1lakh 40 thousand excluding hostel fee which you might find high compared to other colleges

      Campus Life

      You will very well enjoy the campus life being at this college with supportive and friendly seniors and also as the campus is situated in the centre of the city which means you will always be surrounded by malls theaters and many food outlets to hangout.

      College Infrastructure

      Despite college’s reputation and history, it’s infrastructure is nothing compared to that of any other college in India. Wifi is available. Labs are accessible, classroom are fine. Library is resourceful but cannot be accessed for 24 Hrs. If you are a real sportsperson then you are really gonna get disappointed since the sports facilities are not that good. Canteen needs some maintenance.

      Academics

      The college offers various courses but the syllabus being the same not updated one. Course and exam structure is well maintained. Labs and workshop are quite accessible. Also many internship opportunities are available for the students.

      Placements

      HBTU is one of the oldest and finest college of India which has its own dignity and privilege. It has a very strong Alumni network. Placement are pretty good and vary for branch to branch. There are a few great recruiters along with the good ones.

      Infrastructure of this old renowned institution dated back to 1921 when it was started, is still maintained by the authorities. Not so out of the box infra to expect, but the college has labs of NBA accredited level, smart boards are newly installed in every classrooms, gym and other sports arena in the hostels and West campus of the university. Library has sufficient books, Wifi in campus area but with restrictions. Enough of greenery to expect .

      Academics

      I am an undergraduate in Chemical Technology specialisation Paint here in HBTU. This course deals with the coatings, and advanced development of paints in both core and other automobile industries. It's the only University to offer the course in India apart from one other college. Due to limited course, the quality of teaching here is good with all qualified proffesors . The curriculum of all the branches here is well designed and structured in competence with the current industry.

      Placements

      Placements have been increasing rigoursly in the past few years. Computer science and Paint Technology students here are 100% placed. Average package ranges from 6-8 lacs of overall branches. Talking about CS , avg. Goes to 11 lacs and above . Since , the college has a wide alumni network both in India and abroad , students find it easy to approach in placement cells and internships.

      Value for Money

      Pretty much the fees in all government colleges for B.tech is near and around the same. Overall 4 years can take a lumpsum of 8 lacs here. Though the amount of money taken, infra and sports facilities need to be improved, but the wide alumni network you get of HBTI and one of the top engineering institutions in UP after IITs, NITs , it's pretty decent to enroll into.

      Campus Life

      The college is placed inside the Agricultural Institute (CSA) in a good region of Kanpur surrounded by various leisure locations. Since day scholars also constitute most part of this college, you can also opt for motorcycles etc in clg for hostellers for daily commute. Life on campus is pretty happening with various cultural, technical and sports fest every year. Various clubs are there as of dramatics, aeroclub ( for aerospace and stuff) quizzing club ( Q frat), dance ,debate etc.

      Others

      Overall the college is good to take admission if you want a good college in UP near to home, and a good alumni network to grow yourself more . The academic gradings are absolute to provide rigorous competition among students and campus life is good. Still a freshie here in H BTU, i have a lot to take count on and make my best 4 years of life a memorable one.
