Comparatively, it has the best infrastructure among all IITs. Its course structure is considered the most rigorous, second only to IIT Kharagpur. The ChE Department has a very impressive faculty and high-quality labs. The college has a practical course structure with lots of electives to get a specialisation in other fields. It has all the modern sporting facilities including modern indoor basketball and badminton courts and also floodlit basketball and hockey grounds.
