    About the mother institute of Uttar Pradesh (Harcourt Butler technical university).
    Placements: The placement rate of the electronics branch of our college is quite low and also at a very low rate. Since I came to college this year and placements of the final year have started, only around 10 people are placed at a low package, and only a few get a good package.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure is old but good. We have good food quality in some hostels compared to others, like in Shridharacharya hostel. There is a dispensary in our college and many sports grounds and games; it is good. We have a well-equipped library with free Wi-Fi facilities, and also hostels have free Wi-Fi facilities with a daily data limit.
    Faculty: The teachers are helpful and cooperate, except for some professors, but teachers are well-qualified and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is good. The course curriculum is hectic in the first semester, but after that, it is good and effective. The pass percentage is very good in our college.
    Other: I chose this course because it is very helpful and unique for further studies, and also it is a core branch, so it is a very good branch. The college is very good, and it offers various opportunities. Also, there are many fests and festivals that are celebrated in our college.

    HBTU: The Complete Review.
    Placements: Overall good college with decent placement. 100% placement in paint and oil this year but not good for all branches. Very less people get internships. Average 7 Lacs placement. In civil engineering, topmost roles are design engineer, environment engineer, and building engineer, and you can get tons of government jobs in civil.
    Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good and old. Limited resources. Only one library with limited timing of 10 to 7. No gym for 1st year. Exams are held every next month. Hostel facilities are average, I say not good. Broken windows and structure. Small common room. Average mess.
    Faculty: Teachers are qualified and good, but they give very bad marks, and a few give waste of work to do. Semester exams are easy but with a very vast syllabus and bad checking. Most students pass the exams easily by studying one night before the exams. Best thing, branch transfers in this college after getting good CGPA in 1st year, that’s why syllabus is vast and relevant.
    Other: For students who want to pursue core branches, study for GATE, and technical branches like CS have to grind themselves for outside campus placement.

    Average college, limited options. Not as good as top NITs and IIITs, but still okay.
    Placements: Half of the students in the Computer Science and Information Technology departments secured attractive packages averaging 15+ LPA. The remaining students also received placements, albeit not as lucrative. The top-tier packages were predominantly offered off campus to high-performing students. The placements in the Chemical Engineering department were satisfactory, while the departments of Paint and Electronics had moderate success. Other departments did not fare as well.
    Infrastructure: The buildings are constructed in a subpar manner, with an age that rivals that of the college itself, which is over a century old. It is possible that some of these buildings are truly that ancient. The condition of the hostels is also unsatisfactory, as they are old and in a state of disrepair. However, the first year boys hostel is passable, while the others are not up to par. Unfortunately, I cannot provide any insight on the girls hostel due to my limited knowledge. It is worth noting that the girls hostel is situated within a distinct boundary.
    Faculty: The curriculum is focused on academics and is outdated. It has only recently incorporated subjects like ML and AI, but the quality of these additions remains uncertain due to their recent introduction. Therefore, the curriculum may not be at the forefront of the latest fields, but rather emphasizes traditional studies.
    Other: When entering an IT position, it is important to understand that you will need to independently acquire the necessary skills and knowledge for the role.

    Review of Harcourt Butler Technical University.
    Placements: More than 70 percent of the students get placed from college campus placements. The highest offered package is 17 LPA and the lowest is 3 LPA. Recruitment companies include Suzuki, Reliance, Aarti Industries and many more. Less than 30 percent of the students from the mechanical engineering department got internships before 3rd year.
    Infrastructure: The quality of the food available at the mess is good and hygienic. The menu for the entire week is very clear and specific with the timing. College does provide Wi-Fi of medium speed but limited data on a daily basis. There are many canteens in the college and the food quality is good.
    Faculty: Teachers of HBTU are very well qualified and have great knowledge and experience in their related field. The course curriculum is not very relevant to the real-world problems but the curriculum helps in development for the real-world problems. Yes, the end semester exams are on the tougher side.
    Other: Mechanical engineering from HBTU has much value in it. There is a good demand for this field integrated with AI and ML.

    Life of the Harcoutians.
    Placements: As you know, HBTU is always known for its excellent placement percentage with a good average CTC. In previous years, the placements of HBTU were always more than 90%, but in 2024 it decreased to 86% (not a problem because sometimes it happens due to more interest of students in higher studies). The chemical engineering and paint technology branches are always appreciated for 100% placement with an average package of 8-10 LPA.
    Infrastructure: Infrastructure is decent. Classroom conditions are good, with well-settled seats, but some labs have to be upgraded. Wi-Fi is not available in classes but it is available in hostels. The library contains approximately all the books which are needed for students, and the timing is 10 AM to 7 PM. I can't say much about hostels because I am a day scholar.
    Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified and highly knowledgeable. They are very helpful but only if you are serious about your studies. Some teachers are also ready to help you on call at night. All other faculty members are also very active in their duties. The course curriculum is relevant for the industry. That's why there is a very good relation between industry and their respective branches in our college. Semester exams are not tough; you can easily score 7+ CGPA by studying one week before exams. Overall, 40 marks are required out of 100 to pass.
    Other: B.Tech in Paint Technology is a well-known and highly reputed course of our college. It is always known for its excellent academics and 100% placement. Many events happen from time to time in our college, like festival celebrations, auditions for different clubs, etc. Campus surroundings are good. Students want to meet new people. Scholarships: The UP Samaj Kalyan Nidhi scholarship is given to the students who are eligible for this. The amount is different for different categories, like for General - 55-60k, OBC - 75-80k, and SC/ST - 100-110k. Other than this, many private scholarships are also available for students.

    2024 scenario in HBTU Kanpur.
    Placements: This year's 2024 batch is just like a nightmare for on-campus placement, as 20 students in my branch couldn't get the placement. If we see the highest placement, then there is one senior who got a placement of 33 LPA off-campus in Zeta, and he also got 22 LPA on-campus in Zscaler, too. The rest of the data will be there after the list comes. This year, TCS is the god for students; it was the only hope due to the recession in the market. Very few companies are visiting on campus.
    Infrastructure: Classrooms are average; you can expect more in the future. Of. Facility, as there are labs that damaged computers around the year when HBTTU was built (1921). The library is pretty good, but the classrooms are just AVG. Food in a mess is poison. Here, I can use any other word. The canteen is below AVG. Cricket has a very good culture in our college. If. You are looking for a future in cricket, and you can sure shoot.
    Faculty: I have an advice: they should update the syllabus as of now. Companies are introducing new teaching so students should learn. About that in. not just outside the college, but they upgrade the curriculum. Teachers are pretty supportive here; they are very good in their domain.
    Other: HBTU is very famous as it is the oldest technical. University of. Up, that's why I chose it, but it is not worth the money by any chance. Fests are good; they just change the environment of the college, but this year they postponed the fest, and it is possible that this year there won't be any.
