    Best IIT campus in India.
    Placements: There is campus placement at the college. There are so many companies that select students on the basis of written and oral interviews. There is a 6 lacs per year average package at the college. Students who are in the final semester can take part in the placement process. Students get an internship opportunity based on their academic score and performance. Teachers also recommend students for the internship opportunity. There is some internship opportunity, which is to consider students for foreign study and research.
    Infrastructure: In the room, there is one cupboard, one bed mattress and a set of tables and chairs. The process of hostel registration is the same as the admission process. In the morning, there is breakfast; in the afternoon, they provide lunch; in the evening, snacks with tea or coffee; and in the night, they serve dinner.
    Faculty: In IIT Gandhinagar, the course curriculum is based on semester-wise exams. All of the faculty are well qualified and well versed in their field. Every faculty member is very helpful and you can interact one-on-one with them after the class. I have completed my graduation in the mathematics and IITs are also providing a Masters degree in mathematics, so we chose M.Sc. Mathematics. There were semester-wise exams and in every semester we had a mid-semester exam and an end-semester exam. Apart from this, there were quizzes every 15-20 days.
    Other: In the college, there are different kinds of festivals, like the annual fest, Blithchron and the technical fest, Amalthea. There are different kinds of sports events, like CCL and Hall Bol. There are so many sports events in the Hall Bol tournament.
