Reason being, faculty are generally very well acquainted and highly qualified and the programme is grueling & brings out the best from some leading to recent awesome Silicon Valley stories. Some more are slated to appear this year. Though, only these individuals can tell you the exact contribution to their success, I believe they would have done comparably well if they were in a different department or IIT. The research work they have done is also very good and large in volume. A rare department in IIT-D with a no non-sense approach. The students are also excellent. Very sharp and hardworking as well. Therefore, the department has to be one of the best in India'. Also, IIT-Delhi has a brilliant track record when it comes to placements. Their recent achievement is: 400 offers were made in the first four days of placements with the highest offer being $1,00,000 per annum.
