This is a review of IIT Roorkee.

Infrastructure: Hostels are nice, with very good Wi-Fi, but the infrastructure can be developed. Rooms could offer more space, and cleanliness is average. Some areas are below average. There are no curfew timings for both boys and girls. There are both day and night canteens available.

IIT Roorkee Electrical Engineering student review.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is provided separately in both hostel and classrooms. In labs, we are provided with good and well-maintained equipment. Classrooms are also monitored regularly. Library is well-maintained and has good security. In hostel, conditions are a bit uncomfortable, especially in summer, as there is a lot of suffocation and no air conditioning. However, other aspects of the hostel are better. Mess provides good-quality food, but it is more comfortable for South Indian students, with only a few item...

My journey at IIT ROORKEE.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is so beautiful and clean. Every branch has its own department, for example, Mechanical, CSE, Civil. Every hostel is gender-specific. Visiting rooms of the opposite gender is not allowed, but canteens of each hostel are accessible to everyone till 12:00 at midnight. After that, going to the canteens of the opposite gender is not allowed. Mess food is average but healthy. Some buildings like the West Block Mechanical Department are very old, but they are maintained. Some buildings ...

I am very happy to join here because I can find everything that I want and learn.

Infrastructure: We have a good hostel. There are separate rooms for us. We have free Wi-Fi. Every hostel has sports areas to play. There is also a chill-out space for students. There are activity areas in Bhawan so that can be helpful for pace. The best thing is we can find food any time in the hostel and canteen.

Infrastructure: RJB hostel is a bit old, but with friends everything becomes beautiful. The D block in RJB is the newest one and quite good. But the library and department are architectural masterpieces. IIT Roorkee has the most beautiful and natural campus of all the IITs. Each bhawan has study rooms, LAN, and high-speed Wi-Fi in each room. The mess food is manageable but not like home. Medical facilities are available 24/7. IIT Roorkee has the best sports facilities of all the IITs.
