College placements partially decreases due to discipline of students.
Placements: Above 90% of students got placed in this previous year. The highest salary package offered was 22 LPA by Valency International, and the lowest salary offered was 4 LPA. The average salary package offered was 7 LPA in Tata Motors. About 44% of students secured internships at Reliance Industries Limited, HCL, and Tata Consultancy Services.
Infrastructure: Facilities like Wi-Fi, computer labs, classrooms, library, sports ground, Canteen, innovation hub, and gym are available. The quality of food in mess is good. Mess menu can be changed according to students. Hostel infrastructure are not good but all hostel have playground.
Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified from NITs and IITs. Course curriculum is relevant. Semester exams are partially difficult. Overall, pass percentage is 40% and 30%in all subjects. Minimum 15 marks are needed in all subjects in end semester exams. We can prepare for exams 1 week before.
Other: I chose this course because this course is reliable according to my rank and this course will be in high demand in the coming years. Some changes in semester exams are needed. College fest was conducted last January and has a high alumni connectivity along with scholarship facilities.

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.

3Placements1Infrastructure2Faculty3Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money
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.

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.

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.

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.
