Best college for engineering.

Faculty: The professors here at IIT Delhi have great knowledge and experience in their fields. In the first year, we are taught the basic engineering courses. This really helps as all the students are taught the same subjects together, so you can interact with people from other branches and make so many great connections. Exams here are really competitive as the students you are competing with are the brilliant minds of the country, and so their relative grading makes it difficult. Otherwise, you need ha...

Review of Shiksha online IIT.

Faculty: The teacher has to be helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. They had great teaching qualities. This course's curriculum is relevant, and students are industry-ready. But the semester exam in my college was very difficult; therefore, more than 20% of students failed the semester exam.

IIT Delhi: The average college in India.

Faculty: IIT Delhi's Textile Engineering department has highly qualified, knowledgeable, and committed professors. They make complex topics understandable and help students develop technical skills and analytical thinking. However, the administration, including certain deans and the academic body, can be difficult to deal with. Their strict policies and rigid grading practices can be stressful and affect students' CGPA outcome. Students may feel that there is less flexibility and support for their well-b...

Inside the IIT Delhi dream.

Faculty: The professors are good in their research, but their teaching is quite inefficient, and the teaching assistants don't know what they are meant to teach. The course is designed every ten years to ensure its relevancy, but it still lacks. The semester exams are quite difficult, and students remain under stress.

Absolutely dissatisfied.

Faculty: Teaching Quality: While the teachers are qualified and knowledgeable, many fail to engage students effectively. Some rely on outdated teaching methods, making lectures monotonous and theoretical, with limited practical insights. Course Curriculum: The curriculum lacks updates to align with industry demands, focusing heavily on traditional topics. Emerging technologies like AI, IoT, and sustainability are either missing or poorly integrated, leaving students underprepared for modern industrial ro...

IIT Delhi: Pros and Cons.

Really good infrastructure, facilities, and campus environment.

Faculty: Teachers are very knowledgeable and helpful here. Although there will always be teachers whose teaching style we don't like. Overall, all the professors are very helping. Semester exams are not very tough and can be passed by studying just one day before the exam.

IIT is known not for its infrastructure, but for the people present here.

Faculty: In IIT Delhi, most of the professors are doing research, and they are foreign book authors. They are really helpful. Apart from professors, we are provided with TAs to clear out doubts. In older IITs, the education system is outdated; it should be better and modern technology-based so that students can be ready for the industry.

A wonderful year in IITD

Faculty: Professors are highly qualified. Most are IITians themselves with Ph.D.s from reputed foreign universities. They are not that good in teaching, but they are more than happy to help you in research. Semester exams are manageable if you start a week earlier. Almost everyone passed the exams.

IIT Delhi - Dream college of every JEE aspirant.

Faculty: The teachers are highly qualified and knowledgeable, but sometimes you might come across bad teachers despite their high knowledge. I personally believe the course component is a little bit old and needs to be revamped. The semester exams are really very tough, but passing is not too difficult.

Really good infrastructure (classroom).

Faculty: The course may not be very helpful for making the students industry-ready, but yes, they make you research-ready. It's a research-oriented course. Semester exams are moderately difficult. If one is consistent in classes, they will be able to maintain a CGPA above 8/10. 90-95% students pass the semester exams.

Faculty: Yes, the teachers are very helpful at IIT Delhi. They will welcome you for personal doubts, and they also teach us very nicely. Once a week, tutorial classes are organized in which we can solve different questions, and our doubts are being cleared. The semester exams are much more difficult at IIT Delhi. In our 1st year, we have a course, APL-100, which is the course code for the physics subject, and in that subject, the final exam was worth 150 marks, and the average marks of the final exam wer...

Good placements (at 8+ CGPA), the faculty members are great, extracurricular activities are amazing.

Faculty: The teachers are highly qualified and friendly, though some professors are not as approachable. Most courses in the electrical department do not have an attendance policy, though this is not the case for all departments. The course curriculum is relevant and updated annually. Students can choose electives in areas of interest, such as Computer Science, MNCs, or Robotics. The semester exams are tough, and the competition in the electrical branch adds to the difficulty.

Faculty: A few faculty members are good, but the majority are rude and will give us a hard time pursuing our course. The syllabus is hard, and we have to be consistent in order to get good grades. The college has been asked to change the structure, but no action has been taken yet. Although there are mid-semester reviews taken from students and committee meetings are held, the reviews are taken very seriously, and improvisations are made. We can always take courses other than those suggested under open ...
