My journey at IIT ROORKEE.

Placements: There is a placement and internship cell in IITR which helps the students to get placements. The internship ratio of IITR is not that good; only 1/3 of the students got internships, and from that, most of them are from the circuit branch. The internship ratio in the non-circuit branch is bad. But the placements are awesome in IITR. Most of the students who sit in placements get that.

Review of IIT Roorkee - Indian Institute of Technology.

Placements: Most of the students who prepared well got placed. The average salary package offered is around 24 LPA. Recruiters are Texas, Tata Steel, etc. Overall placements are average, but the main key factor is Roorkee not being a metro city as compared to other IITs. They mostly are in metro cities.
