B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee

Placements were good as always with 100% placements, but the highest and lowest salaries were not disclosed by the placement cell of IIT. Companies like Snapdeal, Bidgley, Microsoft, and Goldman Sachs visited the campus. Internships were also offered to almost all the students of the department. I have heard of a stipend of 2 lacs per month, which was the highest here. Infrastructure : We have Wi-Fi in all the common areas. And a LAN facility is available in the hostel rooms from 6 AM to 1 AM. But we have a limited use of Internet, which is 10GB per week. We have a full equipped 24hr working hospital. The labs and classrooms are world-class and fully air-conditioned with well-equipped features for projecting slides or playing the video lectures. The sports, games and co-curricular activities are given a lot of importance here, and the canteen food and hostel rooms are good. No-infrastructure related issues here. Faculty : The faculty members at IITD are very good. They are super knowledgeable and well-qualified. All kinds of teaching methods like projecting slides, playing videos and writing on boards are used. But, the industry exposure is little less than expected. The curriculum is very well-planned and is very useful for the overall development of a student. Other Details : The annual technical and cultural fests here are splendid. In the technical fest "Tryst", world class professors and technicians are invited. And the cultural fest "Rendezvous" is the biggest college fest in north India, with many stars like Vishal and Shekhar, Shankar Ehsaan Loy, Arijit Singh performing in the fest in the last few years.

The campus is astonishing with James Thomson building (Main or Admin building) being a cherry top. Imagine X living in a lush green environment with no pollution air. This is how living at this place is like. The college provides you with the best of sports facilities (Yes, the best. Believe me, I have been to other IITs for Inter-IIT.) and best of coaches. Recently, IITR just missed the Inter-IIT championship to IITK by merely half a point. The place is IIT itself, so there shouldn't be any doubt on the quality of education this place provides. It has 21 academic departments covering engineering, applied sciences, humanities & social sciences, and management programmes, 3 academic centre, 1 centres of excellence, 4 academic service centres and 3 supporting units. Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of India, presented the Charter in November 1949 elevating the erstwhile college to the First Engineering University of Independent India, which lead to establishment of IITKGP. There are many co-curricular activity clubs for students. They are all supervised by a faculty adviser, who, at times might be a pain to deal with. But again it's about you skills and lets you learn how to tackle your annoying bosses in future. Most of the clubs are pro active and keep on organizing workshops and events for the student. One such club is the Cinema Club, which actively premiers recent Bollywood/Hollywood movies, thus solving your problems about theater. Elections are held every year in the campus for the post ranging from wing senator, to college president.The format of elections have been changed, increasing the competition for candidates. You will get to taste the real politics during this time. And obviously, politics is dirty. Management of the campus it not the best you can find. But it is improving gradually. There is a way for things to get done inside the campus, equally lengthy as any other government office. But they are now making processes simpler at both ends. Again, you need to be smart and clever to get something new done in the campus.

IIT Roorkee is a 170-year-old college and with such a history comes its own set of flaws as well as its accomplishments. As one would expect the infrastructure is a good mix of old and new architecture. The Main administrative building is beautiful classic while some of the new building meets all the standards of modern era architecture. One big disadvantage that IIT Roorkee has in terms of Industry exposure is its location. Being a 4-6 hour journey from Delhi which is the closest dwelling place of industries. The industry exposure is not bad but somewhat limited due to this factor. Following the industry exposure, the placements face a little setback. The placements for some of the branches are pretty good while others have to face a little hardship with respect to placement. The Placement scenario is something that could definitely be improved. For someone to be a good professor, knowledge of the material is not the only requirement and that's the case with some of the profs.Though they have good knowledge of their subjects but they are not suited for teaching or rather their way of teaching doesn't align with students.The scenario has been improving in last few years, with more and more teachers adapting to a better way of teaching and forming bonds with the students. Apart from academic stuff, the college life in IIT Roorkee is pretty great. The various groups in campus provide a plethora of opportunities to the students whether those are magazine groups, dance and choreo group, music groups, robotics and much more. If you have a hobby or passion, there are lots of people who can and will help you in that. Along with that, the sports facilities in the campus are probably the best part of campus. The crowd in general is pretty good. The sex ratio is on the lower side but the general crowd is a good mixture of people from different part of the country. In the end if I need to summarize, i would say that IIT Roorkee is a place for everyone whether if your just academic oriented, or if you are into sports as well or if you have a hobby or passion that you want to pursue or even if you want to do all of that at the same time. It's a place where can you can become everything
