Aditya Sharma
B.Tech. in Electrical Engineering
Placements were a little bit lower in 2016 as compared to the previous batch but nonetheless, a majority percentage got placed [about 90% or so]. The rest 10% too chose to wait for higher packages [not that they were not given placement offer but they wanted better]. Institute policy prohibits the official release of placement data - Highest, lowest or average. So, all the figures are based on hearsay. Institute highest [as heard] was 1.5 crore/annum [offered to two students]. The lowest is not known, though said to be around 6 lakh/annum. The average is unknown due to lack of data. Placement was mostly in software, coding and finance companies. Core placements were low in 2016. Microsoft, Google, Intel and Capital one were some of the big companies that came for the placements in 2016. Internship data too is secured & generally not much is known. Companies like Google, Texas Instrumental do come for the same. | The infrastructure of the campus is great. Wi-Fi is free 24*7 and the download speed reaches 30 Mbps during peak. Labs are updated and have a large number of the latest instruments as IITK spends a lot on the same. P K Kelkar Central Library is built in 3 storeys and has almost all the books you may need in the campus life. So, there is no need to buy books. The institute run health centre is there with all the basic medical facilities. The college has a modern infrastructure which is AC, Wi-Fi enabled. The classrooms are the best among all colleges. Hostels are old but not too old to feel bored. The mess food is good [better than Kota food]. The canteen food follows the same. Rates are not costly, so you can eat a lot! Hostel rooms are spacious. There was no issue regarding the infrastructure in the college. | The faculty may not be the best in teaching but knowledge wise, there is no comparison at all with any other in India. All PhD holders [mostly from renowned universities from foreign countries] professors know everything of their subjects and are always willing to tell you the same. Modern teaching methods are used, with slides and videos for most courses. Most of the faculty is actively involved in academic as well as industrial research resulting in the exposure to latest developments in the field. One can get hands-on experience by associating with any project with the professors. The course curriculum is designed to get the best out of one in any discipline. Gives enough free time but teaches you a lot. | Really great in all aspects - placement, teaching, infrastructure and course curriculum.

B.Sc. in Economics
The placements are the first thing anyone worries about while choosing a college, but you should not. Placements at IIT Kanpur go as high as 1.5-2 crores, but you should bear in mind that these packages are bagged by a select few and don't represent the average. The placements are defined mainly by individual talent provided that enough opportunities exist and more than enough chances live at IIT Kanpur. Another reason you should not worry about the package is due to the different representations the same package can be depicted, for example, a 30 Lacs package can be shown to be 40 Lacs with 10 Lacs sign in bonus. Talking specifically about BS Economics at IIT Kanpur, there are ample opportunities in IT, Finance, and Analytics sector. Some students opt for the dual degree in MS Economics for better prospects. Internships are largely for coding, and most companies are open to all branches. | The infrastructure of IIT Kanpur is one of the best, and it is spread over more than a 1000 acres. The campus is a beautiful amalgamation of sophisticated labs, top class auditorium, larger than auditorium classrooms, open-air theatre, 15 residential hostels, every sports and games facility, and even a variety of flora and fauna. I have been on the campus for almost two years, and I haven't even seen about half of it. The hostel rooms are a bit small because two people were staying in rooms meant for a single person but with the completion of new hostels, this is not an issue anymore. The mess is much better compared to other institutes, and canteens are open till 2 AM in every hostel. | The majority of teachers here are good, and some are indeed exceptional. All teachers are highly knowledgeable though some may not be able to impart their knowledge efficiently. But some faculty members go an extra mile to make sure the students take an interest in the subject and understand every point. The research opportunities are humongous here. The curriculum is a bit intensive in my opinion, though there is no compulsory attendance in most of the courses. | Life, Placements, Academics and more at IIT KANPUR. | IIT Kanpur organises three fests: 1. Antaragni, the cultural fest. 2. Techkriti, the technological fest 3. Udghosh, the sports fest. All these fests are one of the biggest in Asia in their respective categories. The only thing bad about IIT Kanpur is that it is in Kanpur, a city that complements the beautiful and clean campus. Everything that you will ever need can be found on the campus.
Ritam Acharya
B.Tech. in Chemical Engineering
The placement record of IIT Kanpur is great; in the recession, almost all UG students were placed. Companies like Google, Amazon and startups come for placements. In my department, students go into SDE, consultancy, and product management profiles; very few opt for the core profile. Core companies like Dr. Reddy's Lab and Vedanta also come. The average package in chemical engineering is 20 lacs per year. Placement records are very good but internship opportunities in chemical engineering are quite limited. Core companies hire interns; other companies also hire interns, but circuital branches get more preference. Almost 55% of my department students didn't get internships, but the good thing is that almost all got placed. | It's a residential campus, and hostels are quite good. The food quality is also fine. Different clubs are here based on interest Students can join music club dance club, programming club robotics clubs, etc. We have grounds for different sports, such , cricket, hockey, football, etc. A swimming pool is also available. The hotel itself has playgrounds. You get medical insurance up to Rs 1 lakh per year at IIT Kanpur. The whole campus has Wi-Fi, and all academic buildings and labs have air conditioning. All classrooms have projector. All labs are good and well maintained. | Professors are well qualified with Ph.D.s and postdocs from recognized universities. You can clear your doubts in class, or you can visit the professor's office or lab. The curriculum is updated every 10 years. Review council forms and make necessary changes to the curriculum. All labs are mandatory, so students have practical knowledge. We have 1 midterm exam and 2–8 quizzes generally taken; they may be surprise or unannounced. If you attend regular lectures, you will definitely score well. The grading system is relatively simple. | Strict curriculum, good infrastructure, very good placement record with the highest package 4 crore. | 3 major festivals are conducted every year: 1. Antaragni (Media and culture fest) 2. Udghosh (Sports fest) 3. Techkriti (Technology and Entrepreneurship fest) .

Placements & Internships: Internships are not compulsory for every student. However, the institute values the importance of internships in a students career and hence brings in a lot of companies/firms to hire interns from the batch. A lot of students also take up scholarships like DAAD and MITACS Globalink program to get into universities in Germany and Canada respectively to pursue research interns. A lot of students go out to do their interns at universities across the world in USA, UK, Europe, Japan, Australia, Taiwan, Singapore etc. where their travel and accommodation costs are covered by the institute offering them interns. The placements happen in the month of december for final year students. They happen over a period of one monthe where companies visit the campus vigorously. The highest salary offered is generally close to Rs 1 Cr or more. It is generally offered by an IT based firm to a computer science student for a position outside India (mostly in the US). apart from these few outliers, day one sees around 120-150 students getting placed at an annual salary package of more than Rs 15 Lakhs per annum. The companies following them offer lower packages. The overall average salary of the batch would be somewhere around Rs 9-10 lakhs per annum. There is a strong alumni network in place which goes back long enough and the spread is all across the globe and across organizations of different types. Even though it's been more than 2 years now since I left IIT Kanpur, I can still approach and alumni with just my name and place of graduation. There are Alumni meets that happen every year at several locations across the country where graduates from batches of 1960's also join and share their experience with the younger generation. Job switching is way easier for an IIT Kanpur graduate because of the presence of a strong alumni network and a strong bond that every IIT Kanpur graduate shares with the other irrespective of the years they graduate in. | Academics & Faculty: The daily routine consists of lectures/lab sessions from 8 am to 5 pm in the evening and are generally lightly loaded with assignments and pre-reads in the first two years. The number of assignments and pre-reads increases in the last two years as more specialization subjects come into picture. The quality of teaching is outstanding. It is something that will rarely be seen anywhere else in India. Teachers like HC Verma make physics come to life with their practical and experiment based teaching methods in class. Faculties who are well known in the industry and academic area teach the subjects with passion beyond imagination. They are however extremely finnicky about discipline. The doors for the classes will be shut at 8:00 am sharp for the first class and no exceptions will be made. This makes the teachers more credible and someone whom you would look upto in future. The college has every experience that you could have thought of. Every hostel has its own canteen and mess. The canteens are open till late night for the convenience of students and also there is a CCD inside the campus that gives out good coffee at subsidized rates! There is Antaragni which is one of the biggest cultural festival in North India and it is later followed by Techkriti which is again one of the biggest technology festival in India. There are inter and intra hostel competitions as well. Overall the place offers exposure to variety of activities that would shape your personality and turn you into one of the finest ask in the market at the end of 4/5 years you spend there. | Fees & Scholarships: The course fee per year has been changing for some time now. It used to be INR 64000 per annum during 2009-2013. The fee is subsidized way beyond measure if one looks at the facilities and infrastructure made available to the students. However, the fee is subsidized for SC/ST candidates and numerous scholarships are available for other students as well who come from lower income group. The scholarships are generally merit cum means and given to roughly 100 students every year. A lot of students also take loans for their education which are readily made available from banks like SBI and UBI that have a branch inside the campus at extremely good rates. All of this makes it almost a non-existent factor when you are thinking of an education at IIT Kanpur.
