review of IIT Bombay - Indian Institute of Technology.
Placements: Almost 100% of students got placed in our course. Many students also prefer higher studies or exams like UPSC. The highest salary package offered was 1 crore per annum. Around 5 students got internships in a consulting firm or a software firm. Top roles offered are investment banker and consulting.
Infrastructure: Hostels are not good. Hostel rooms are small. Other facilities are good like Wi-Fi, LAN, washrooms, etc. The food served in the mess is better. Medical facilities are available. Sports are the best in this college.
Faculty: Faculty members have more than 30 years of teaching experience and a few of them are Ph.D. scholars. Few courses are irrelevant in the present world. Semester exams are tough if we do not attend the lectures.
Other: Our campus crowd is the best. It has a highly enthusiastic and very helpful crowd.

Review of IIT Bombay - Indian Institute of Technology.
Placements: It is a new course but the majority of students who applied for placements got a seat. Most of the companies related to the finance sector open up for BS. eco students and for going to the coding side. There are ample opportunities available. This branch is interesting and can engage you well if you even have a slight interest in economic studies.
Infrastructure: The sports facilities are the best that are provided in the country from training to grounds and courts. All are well maintained and of the best quality. Library is good, gymkhana and hostel courts and indoor sports are also available. Best college festivals in the country are organised to give opportunities for tech fests, cultural fests, and several other things.
Faculty: The curriculum here taught is of high standards. Professors and opportunities working under and with them are so good for overall development. The presence of all kinds of clubs ensures every student gets what they are desiring for is also something that makes this institute the best place to study.

The college has good infrastructure and facilities.
Placements: In this college, any student did not get placed because there is no pass out yet. The internship interviews are going on still, so don't know the exact data.
Infrastructure: There is free Wi-Fi everywhere in the department, and computer labs are available. Classrooms are well furnished, and the library is a great source of so much knowledge. The facilities in the hostel are great with good quality food and hygiene, medical facilities are available, and all kinds of sports are also available.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, knowledgeable and all are PhD holders. The teaching quality is great and enhances your thought process. This course is not anywhere related to an industry, but the course curriculum is relevant and is useful for further studies and UPSC.

Not worth the money for the M.Phil programme.
Placements: There are no placements provided in the college. I'm not aware of any initiatives by the department of humanities and social sciences regarding placements. The department has some projects initiated by some faculty members. I'm unaware of any project tie-ups with the government of Maharashtra or BMC.
Infrastructure: There are three small classrooms for a department of 300 students. The classrooms get shorter and shorter while the intake increases every year. There is only one computer lab that can accomodate a maximum of 30 people, one for each system. The department looks like an abandoned building.
Faculty: Faculty members are brilliant and among the best in their respective fields in the state. They have helped not just academically but also as people, in opening my eyes, finding my strengths and correcting my weaknesses. There will always be some bad eggs which is to be expected.
