The reality of IIT Kanpur.

Placements: In my department, approximately 90% of placements occur on campus. The highest package this time offered was 85 LPA, the lowest was 10 LPA, and the average was 19 LPA. Dr. Reddy and Axxella are the main recruiters during the placements in our course. The internship number is not so good but around 50% of students get the internship. I have no idea about the role but it depends on which area students want to go to.

Absolutely satisfied because of the environment and lifestyle of the college; best placement in 2022

Placements: 100% students placed in Maths (90% if you take non-willing). The highest 1.2 Cr Rubrik USA, the lowest 10 Lacs, something average 20 LPA. All software companies and high-paying HFTs (Alpha Freo, Graviton, etc.) are open for Maths (based on GDP/CPI) as it is a circuit branch. Internships on campus were 60-70%, but off-campus almost everyone, and again in startups, and in MNCs mostly startups. Roles include Software Engineer, Quantitative Analyst.

It's not a private college. It's IIT Kanpur. No doubt about anything.

Placements: In our batch, there are 64 students, out of which 40 got placed with an average package of approximately 40 Lacs. Others either pursued higher studies or work in other fields. There are many types of math courses, which are very different from any other branch. All IT companies recruit here.

Placements: Amazing placements are here. It's the best college for mechanical engineering students all over India. The average package is around 24 lacs, while the highest is always above one crore. Also, most of the students get internships in their third year, which leads to PPO.

Absolutely satisfied with the college and its academics.

Placements: Around 70-80 percent of students get placed. Core sector companies do come, but the salary offered ranges around 8-12 LPA. There are plenty of opportunities in non-core sectors, and you can get into various non-core roles in analytics, IT, and consulting. If you are not too poor, then you can easily get placed.

Our college infrastructure and faculties are excellent. Placements are overall very good.

Placements: Overall placement in our branch are less because very few companies comes for our branch students that's why. Students go to research line and most students go to technical job by learning coding because some students don't want to research or may be some financial problem.

Review of Earth Science Course, IIT Kanpur.

Placements: No good placements are available in my course as it is almost the last priority for companies. The highest package is around 30 Lacs, the lowest is around 0 to 3 Lacs, and the average is around 10 Lacs. Almost no core companies come to my college for placements and internships. Roles in my course include Geologist, Earth Scientist, and some others. Getting an internship is very hard in my course as it is a low-priority course.
