Campus gives a lot of exposure and experience, just have to dig out the better side of it.
Placements: Our batch is of the year 2022 and will be passing out in the year 2026. I am in the department of mining engineering and 63 percent of students get placed here. The highest package in my department is 45 LPA and the average is 18 LPA. Coal India comes as the top recruitment company and 5 percent of students got internships in companies like Amazon and IBM. We can practice tech and nontech roles like data analytics, software development and many more.
Infrastructure: We have been provided with good lab facilities and instruments. Wifi is available in every hall and campus spot, even for guests who visit like parents. Classroom are large enough and properly air conditioned. The hostel food is good and we have a hospital named BC Roy. In every hall sports facilities, grounds, gym and clean mess are arranged
Faculty: The teachers are helpful in projects and other activities; only some are not helpful and just course-oriented. The teaching quality could be improved. The course makes the student industry ready and also provides options to make him learn other domains too. The semester exam difficulty varies; some semesters are tough, which needs to be focused on and some of them are chill to be studied 1 week before exams. The pass percentage is based on marks scored by the average number . of students.
Other: I wanted to go to IIT Kharagpur and hence chose this course. The best thing is it provides exposure to different domains. The improvement could be in the way of teaching and assessment of students. There are many events and activities too, like the two major festivals of Kshitij and Spring Fest. Also, Illumination, Rangoli and Hall Days are major attractions.

The quality of teaching is very good; they teach in such a way that even a person with zero knowledge is able to understand it. They link the concepts to daily life situations to keep the conceptual background very strong. They are very useful for attempting many examinations," like GATE.
