Life at Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee.
Placements: Placements are fair enough at IIT Roorkee. If you maintain a CGPA greater than 7, it would be sure that you will be placed. Although most of the students get PPO from companies where they have done internships. For internships, there are fewer companies comparatively. In my batch of chemical engineering, out of 120, only 26 students got internships. While for higher branches, opportunities are at speak.
Infrastructure: Our hostels are clean and have a lot of facilities like a gym room, common room, TV room, laundry, and high-speed Wi-Fi. The mess food is decent with varieties of every region. Almost every festival is celebrated in all hostels. There are Bhawan days celebrated for each hostel. The library contains over 3,000-4,000 books with a lot of E-journals. There are medical facilities on campus.
Faculty: All faculty members hold Ph.D. from top universities either in India or abroad. Every student is allowed a faculty advisory to which they can discuss their academic concerns. Exams are conducted twice a semester. We have mid-term and end-term exams. Quizzes are conducted for each subject twice. You can easily maintain an 8 CGPA if you are consistent in classes.
Other: The most amazing thing about IIT Roorkee is its fests named Thomso and Cognizance. Another exciting thing is the location of my college which is between hills like Mussoorie, Valley of Flowers, Lansdowne, etc.

IIT Roorkee college life.
Placements: About 70-80% got placed, and some are going abroad for higher studies. 7-8 are going to IIMs, and others are preparing for GATE. The highest package is around 55 LPA, offered by Zomato and Microsoft. The lowest is 8 LPA, and the average package is 14 LPA. Top recruiting companies include Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Zomato, Sprinklr, JP Morgan, Reliance, Axxela, Future First, Sun Petro, etc. Around 60% of students got internships on campus, while others have done off-campus as everyone has to do an internship in the third year. Top roles offered include software developer, quant, machine learning engineer, data analyst, chemical engineer, etc.
Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is good, and all classrooms have AC and projectors. The whole campus has Wi-Fi availability. There is one central library where anyone can go anytime to study. You can get any book; if not available in the library, they will order it for you. Labs are good; they have very costly equipment and machinery. In the hostel, you will be given a separate room. Every hostel has an attached mess. Every room has a fan, chair, table, and bed. In the mess, you get breakfast from 7:30 to 9:30. After breakfast, you get lunch around 12:30 to 2:30 and dinner from 7:30 to 9:30. All mess workers are very friendly; you have to take the food by yourself. There is an institute hospital where you can go anytime for treatment. There are four large grounds, and every hostel has a gym and indoor games facilities. There is one central gym and a student club for indoor games. There is a swimming pool where you can learn to swim if you don't know how; they will train you.
Faculty: The teaching quality is the best. All teachers have done their Ph.D. or Masters from foreign universities; they all are well qualified. They are very helpful and friendly. The course curriculum is relevant to making you a chemical engineer; you will become industry-ready after a core internship. Semester exams are average; they do relative grading, which makes it easier for students to get good grades. Minimum marks depend on the teacher; some may have 20% or 30%.
Other: I chose this college because I got it according to my score. The course is good if you want to build a career in chemical engineering. There is one cultural fest once a year called Thomso, which is Asia's largest cultural fest. It is a three-day event full of enjoyment and different activities.

IIT Roorkee Genuine Insights.
Placements: I am currently a undergraduate student pursuing a degree in Chemical Engineering, with approximately 120 students in my branch. The JEE Advanced cutoff for Chemical Engineering stands at around 5000. In terms of placements, the opportunities are promising. In the year 2024, out of the 120 students, 70 secured on-campus placements while the remaining opted for off-campus opportunities. The internship prospects are also favorable for those who possess the necessary skills and demonstrate hard work. Noteworthy recruiting companies include Google, Microsoft, Dee Shaw, JP Morgan, among others.
Infrastructure: The IITs boast the finest infrastructure in India, featuring well-equipped labs with all necessary materials and full air conditioning. Additionally, the entire campus is equipped with Wi-Fi, with IIT Roorkee offering the fastest Wi-Fi in the country at an impressive speed of 1Gbps.
Faculty: The faculty members are highly educated and humble, with many being alumni of prestigious institutions such as IIT and NIT. Our Director holds a Ph.D. from IIT Kanpur, ensuring that all teachers are of top quality. Each semester consists of two exams - a mid-term and an end-term. The exams are designed to be manageable, and the grading system is also fair.

Absolutely dissatisfied. Here is also rat race, nothing new.
Placements: According to official Placement and Internship cell APP, last year means our +1 batch, 83 got on-campus placements out of near 120 students. As for the internships for our batch, only 46 got on-campus internship out of near 120 students. It includes companies like BIS and Future First which give stipend of 20-25k. As for this season, Placements are going on, but only 20-30% companies are opening for Chemical branch. Most companies have the branch criteria of circuital branches only. If we talk about the lowest package, there are mostly 7-8LPA packages. But some extraordinary get good package which make the average a little higher, otherwise the median is 8LPA. Top roles are : SDE Data Analyst Quant Researcher Means there are 5-10 max core companies.
Infrastructure: Chemical department conducts all of its classes in its department building only, which isn't that much advanced. Classes are poorly maintained, would rate 4 out of 10. Though AC and fans work fine but seats are mostly damaged. Department library is like it doesn't even exist. Main library is good but books are limited, near exam when all students try to issue the books, at that time we face problems. Wi-Fi is good but not upto reputation, like usually there is thing that IIT Roorkee has the fastest Wi-Fi, that is a lie. Hostel (Rajiv Bhawan) facilities are very poor. Lifts in bhawan mostly don't work. Cameras bhawan don't work. Many students have lost their cycle and never found the Thief. Inside Bhawan also there were many cases of stealing things. Though canteen is good. Sports in Bhawan is just for name, not maintained.
Faculty: I am interested in cyber security, so never focused that much on Chemical courses. Though at this age we shouldn't expect that much from professors, we just have to study on our own. Chemical professors are cool. Curriculum is easy not that much hectic.
Other: I chose just because of IIT tag, but only being in IIT doesn't matter, your branch matters a lot. Fest and campus life are okay.
