Overall IIT Kanpur is a best for it's infrastructure and academic supremacy.

Placements: This year 85% of the students got placed during campus selection. Moreover, each year at least 80% of students get placed. The students who are not placed are most likely to go for further studies, and they are not interested in doing jobs. Basically or overall the student placement is satisfactory.

They give the inspiration and motivation for our bright future.

Placements: There are a lot of placements in our batch, and our college invites more companies for the placements. First of all, in the pre-final year, all the students will attend the interviews. Therefore, all the opportunities are more helpful for all the students. The companies offer every student a chance to attend the placement drive.

Life, Placements, Academics and more at IIT KANPUR.

Placements: 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 representation...

A review on IIT Kanpur. A good for the civil engineering.

Placements: The placements for civil department are average compared to other branches. The placements are high compared to the other colleges. But if we talk about internships, there are not many opportunities for civil engineering student even in non-core companies.

The placements were really good, and there are innumerable opportunities to learn.

Placements: The placement rate for my batch was close to 80%. The highest package was 30 LPA, the lowest was 5 LPA, and the average was around 9 LPA. All kinds of firms (MNC and startups) were there during the placement session. Most of the students joined in the firms who are not related to their background.

B.Tech in BSBE in IIT-Kanpur.

Placements: The batch is quite small, as there are 25 to 35 students which is an advantage as the student-professor ratio is good. Out of those, 50% go for higher studies- like the M.Tech or PhD, and the rest get jobs in mostly non-core companies. The core companies are also there, but the pay is moderate as they require students with a higher degree. The students who wish to study further usually get a foreign internship while the rest get internships in non-core companies. The department is mostly resear...

Placements: We are having a good response by our seniors in terms of placements. It is not that much easy as you have to do a lot of hard work and preparation to clear different stages. If you want placements in the private sector, do a lot of competitive coding and develop skills on how to talk and react on a particular question.
