We have a big central library spread across 3 floors and a ground floor and 24/7 open during exams. All course books are available and apart from that novels, magazines are available. We can request books as well as we can issue them. Hostels are also in good condition except few. There are 14 hostels, 2 for girls, 1 shared for both girls and boys, and the rest are all for boys. We have libraries in the hostel. Facilities like a gym, sports room, music room, TV room and canteen are available. We have an IITG hospital with a 24/7 ambulance facility.

Other: I chose this course because of IIT, and the best thing about the course is we get a lot of free time to work on ourselves and upskill ourselves. In the 5th semester, we have a hectic schedule, which I want to change because already we have internship season. However, the rest of the course is great. Fests like Alcheringa, Techniche, Spirit, Prayatna, Spic Macay, etc., are conducted on campus and have almost 7000+ students from all Ph.D., M.Tech, B.Teach, and M.A. Campus connectivity is a bit weak we have to cross the river to go to the city while surrounding is pollutionless. We have scholarships available for department toppers as well as students with good grades. If the family income is below 8 LPA then students are eligible for scholarships. We have a new SAC which is the hub of all technical and cultural clubs like robotics, movies, etc. Large sports ground is also available.
