Review of IIT Kanpur by me.
Placements: Last year, almost 92 percent of students got placed. Companies like Quant Box and Google come to hire our students. The average package was around 28 lacs per annum, the maximum was around 3 to 4 crores and the minimum was around 14 lacs. Almost all students who work hard get placed.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of IIT Kanpur is amazing and it is one of the best IITs, and the hostel is too amazing to be able to explore such things and get past all the difficulties that you can face. It helps you build a bond you will never forget and it is worth living there.
Faculty: IIT Kanpur is known for its academics and the best faculty provided to the students. Almost all the professors have done research in the best field they teach and exams are quite tough to pass through them. It is to teach you not to give up and face difficulties in the future.

It is a great place for everyone.
Placements: Our course provided excellent placements in 2022. About 100% of students were placed. The average salary package offered is around 28 LPA. Top recruiting companies include Amazon, Google, Flipkart, Samsung, and Nvidia.
Infrastructure: There is unlimited Wi-Fi with a speed of around 100 Mbps. Classrooms are excellent. They can accommodate 50 to 600 students. The library is very well maintained. It has almost every book. It is a very peaceful place. The mess serves a variety of food items from almost every part of India. The food is very delicious.
Faculty: It has the best teachers in our country. They are highly qualified. They have a lot of experience. They are very helpful. Some parts of the course curriculum may seem irrelevant. The majority of it is still very relevant and important in today's industry. Semester exams are not that difficult. Students can pass with good scores if they attend classes regularly and complete the assignments on time.

Our college gives freedom.
Placements: Data analytics and quant profile roles are offered. Students from computer science engineering received higher salary packages. Roles in organisations optimising emerging technologies have risen, with students getting an offer to work as machine learning engineers, decision analysts, and AI specialists.
Infrastructure: Students get single rooms from the second year. Some basic facilities like hostel and mess serve more than 1000 people. Non-veg is not allowed, only eggs are allowed. I was a pure vegetarian but started eating eggs from the mess. They make egg and butter fried rice very delicious.
Faculty: Exams are not that difficult as we have assignments, quizzes, tutorials, vivas, and presentations.
Other: A lot of events are organised.

Students won't regret it if they join this college.
Placements: Our batch has 65 students. Placements of this branch are excellent, and around 100% of students are placed. Almost all the companies i.e 90% are open for this branch and in internships also major companies are open for only 3 branches including maths. Recruiting companies are Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Oracle, Uber, Adobe, etc. Many banks are also open for finance roles. The highest salary package offered this year is over 1 crore, and also in India, and at least 3 students get this from our branch.
Infrastructure: Some of the hostels are new and some are old, but the beauty of all of them is good. The food is good, and IIT Kanpur has the best sports facilities like a tennis court, badminton court, squash. Every hostel there is a basketball and badminton court also excluding the main sports complex. Immediate medical facilities are available here. Students will be picked up by ambulance to the health center if they ever feel the need for it. There is a huge library although the building is old, the infrastructure from inside is good, and it has one of the biggest libraries in India.
Faculty: Teachers are knowledgeable but not everyone knows how to teach. Exams of this branch are tough, and students cannot expect to pass the semester just by preparing one week before the exams. Students have to study the whole semester thoroughly. The course is more inclined towards pure maths but DSA is taught in this course so at the time of placements it does not matter.
Other: I opted for this course, because of my interest in maths, and this was the best option I was getting on my rank.

Review of IIT Kanpur - Indian Institute of Technology.
Placements: Mathematics and scientific computing is one of the top branches of IIT Kanpur. It has 100% placements from the past few years. In 2019 batch, the highest salary package offered was 72 LPA within India and 1.5 crores per annum in abroad. Things like average salary package offered, etc., are always confidential for students, but I think the average salary package offered for mathematics and scientific computing department approximately ranges from 13 LPA-15 LPA. Top roles in this branch are offered in the finance domain as core jobs and coding and programmer as non-core jobs.
Infrastructure: In IIT Kanpur, there are many lecture halls, core labs, non-core labs, Windows and Linux software labs, etc. There is also a PK Kelkar Library, which is one of the favourite places for students. In IIT Kanpur, there are many hostels, which are fully Wi-Fi enabled. Every hostel has its mess and canteen to have fun and enjoy. Sports facilities are above than your expectations.
Faculty: In IIT Kanpur, mathematics and scientific computing is a branch under the department of mathematics and statistics. In this branch, there are some courses related to mathematics and some courses related to computer science. All faculty members in IIT Kanpur are well qualified and humble. Most of them completed their degrees from IITs or foreign universities. The course curriculum chosen by them is really helpful. They encourage us to read books of foreign authors so that we can develop our own thinking.
Other: I chose this course because it is a combination of mathematics and computer science. So, you can choose any field according to your interest like if you want to do coding, then you can opt for it or if you want to join in core companies you can opt for the finance sector. IIT Kanpur organises three major fests, and one is sports fest named Udghosh, while the second one is cultural fest named Antaragini and third one is tech fest named Techkriti. For extracurricular activities, you can choose any club or society according to your interest. They provide you with the opportunity to start any club if you don't find that club there.
