B.Tech. in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering - Batch of 2028

4Placements4Infrastructure3Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money
Faculty is not as good as I thought.
Placements: Almost 89% of students from our course were placed. The lowest package offered was 6 LPA, while the highest was 40 LPA. Tata Steel is one of the top recruiters for Metallurgical and Materials Engineering. Around 67% of students got internships from our course, with roles like managers in Tata Steel, etc.
Infrastructure: There are many labs and sufficient classrooms for all students. The college has a library, and a central library is under construction. Wi-Fi is not available for first-year students; only LAN is provided in the hostels. Hostel facilities are good, and the quality of food is also decent. Medical facilities are available 24/7.
Faculty: The faculty is good, and the teachers are somewhat helpful. They are qualified, but the experience is not as much as I expected. The course prepares students for the industry. Semester exams are quite hard, and the pass percentage is around 32%. There are good teachers and professors, but the faculty could be better.
Other: I got this course through the JEE Advanced entrance test. The crowd in our course is not as large as in CSE. Labs could be improved. There are four fests conducted on campus.

Sharing my experience of IIT PATNA .
Placements: It is a new type of hybrid course offered by IIT Patna. As this is a new course, there is still some time for the first batch to pass out, but overall they provide good support by regularly holding webinars and question-answer sessions. A new training and placement cell has been made for the hybrid students to support them with their preparation.
Infrastructure: The overall infrastructure is great and very huge. They have separate buildings for each department. But one thing I want to add is they don't look after the mess facilities for the B.Sc. students. We faced a lot of issues regarding food. And the hostel and the bathrooms are neat and clean.
Faculty: The professors are helpful in nature and highly knowledgeable. They teach in a very understanding manner, but some of them make the easy things hard to understand. I am not saying that all of them are good; we just have to compromise with them. But yes, you can go for it.

Reasons to choose IIT BBA over other BBA.
Placements: The college will provide placements as they promised. But the placements won't be like B.Tech programs because our mode of learning is online or distance, and the outcome that employers or the college expect might not be the same.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure at this college is good. The hostels have all the essentials, such as Wi-Fi, lifts, water coolers, and study tables. They also have washing machines for students to use. The classrooms are modern and have air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and power outlets for laptops. However, the mess food is terrible, and I don't know of any medical services that are available.
Faculty: The teachers are extremely qualified, coming from top institutions like IIM and industry leaders like KPMG and EY. The course curriculum is industry-focused, which makes it relevant. However, the mode of learning is online, which makes it a bit questionable. The semester exams are of moderate difficulty, and the pass percentage is around 60 to 70%.

B.Tech is better than B.Sc. from IITP.
Placements: Currently, no batch passed out, and no one knows about the future, and there is no interaction with seniors, and nothing looks like internship opportunities. There are 1250 and more students in one batch, so there is very tough completion in placement, but they say 100% placements are offered.
Infrastructure: Course infrastructure is good. There are 4 subjects: English, math, computer science, and data analytics. There are many assignments, quizzes, and many more things. Every thing is in online mode; a professor teaches in online mode. And I didn't say anything about the hostel because in B.Sc. there is no hostel allotment.
Faculty: Our teachers are so helpful, as whatever need we have, they give their best to us. Every teacher is well qualified with a PhD degree. Yes, the course curriculum is relevant to me, and this curriculum makes us ready for industry. Exams are moderate.

IIT Patna review for B.Tech. in Civil Engineering.
Placements: About 75% of our course's students were placed after graduation. The highest salary offered was 40 LPA, the lowest was 7 LPA, and the average package was 12 LPA. The top recruiting companies are L&T and TVS. If you want to do an internship in this course, you will have to try off-campus. The top roles are structural engineer, site engineer, and project manager.
Infrastructure: The college has good Wi-Fi in every building and in each classroom. The Wi-Fi speed is very good, averaging around 400 mbps and sometimes going as high as 1 gbps. The sports facilities are very nice, with a specific ground for every sport. We can find almost any sport we want to play at our college. There's a 24x7 hospital facility on campus, and the canteen has Nescafe, Angeethi, and Banjara to eat.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful and qualified. Every teacher has a Ph.D. degree from a top university in India or abroad. The course curriculum is relevant and industry-ready, and semester exams are of moderate difficulty. Nearly 95% of students pass the exams.
Other: I chose this course because of my rank, and I genuinely like it. The events and fests are good, but connectivity is not so good. You have to come to Bihta, which is almost 35 km from Patna, and then take an auto, which charges a lot.

Amazed by the infrastructure, yet to find out about the internship and placement claims.
Placements: Our college offers up to 100% placement. The highest package is about 80 lakhs; the average package sits around 23–27 lakhs. One example of a top recruiting company for our college would be Infosys. Every student gets at least one scholarship offer from the college.
Infrastructure: The classrooms have amazing technological facilities such as smart boards, projectors, microphones for teachers and a student capacity of 80–145 students per lecture hall. The hostel and food facilities were very satisfactory; hygienic fresh food was being served, as was the cleanliness of the hostel and the rooms.
Faculty: Teachers seemed to have grip over their subjects and the teaching quality is amazing, as the faculty always makes sure the students are comfortable with the concept before moving onto the next one. Exam difficulty depends on how the student prepares for it, as everything on the exam is based on what is being taught in class.
Other: I chose this course because it provides knowledge in a variety of emerging future domains. Even though the exam and study pattern are well planned by the course directors, it might be better if they give more weight to the offline exam. Events are awesome; the campus is built in a massive area and can handle a huge amount of crowds at once.
