      IIT KGP Detailed Review

      Verified Review
      College Infrastructure

      IIT Kharagpur, the mother of all IITs and the largest, is one of the most prolific institutes in India. The students here get lots of facilities at the college. The classrooms are all well-maintained and divided into two types- Circular and Rectangular for a better view of students. The Central Library of IIT Kharagpur is India's biggest and most-facilitated Library of India. Sports centers and grounds are available for students to pursue their interests. The mess food is mediocre but eatable.

      Academics

      I am currently studying in the Department of Electrical Engineering. Being a Fresher here, each 1st year Under Graduate student has to learn the same subjects for the current year. Some of the professors' lessons are not so easy to understand, but the books available for the subject make the topic clear. I think the curriculum is updated and includes all the recent developments in the field such as laboratories and machines.

      Placements

      IIT Kharagpur is best known for its placements in major giants like Google, Excel, Microsoft, and many more. About 80% of the students got placed. The highest salary package offered was Rs 2.68 crore per annum to the student with a B.tech degree in the Department of Electrical and Electronics Communication Engineering. The average salary offered was 16 lakhs per annum.

      Value for Money

      My course costs around 3 lakhs per annum. I don't think the course would be worth that money, but the college provides waivers and scholarships for those students who can't afford it. Scholarships are awarded based on one's family's annual income and the student's academic performance.

      Campus Life

      IIT Kharagpur also has the largest campus covering about 2100 acres of ground. It provides a lot of facilities including two stadiums, courts for almost all the sports, two lakes and many more parks for the students to visit. Being so large, the internet connectivity fluctuates a lot.

      Others

      I would recommend this college to the students preparing for their JEE Advanced Examinations. I would also like to mention that seniors and peer groups are very helpful and friendly. There are lots of societies and clubs for students to pursue any of their side interests.
