This college can be a bit stressfull sometimes, but overall a dream college for all.

Faculty: Not many ideas regarding this since I am a first-year student where all the courses are common for all and nothing branch specific is taught. Right now in the first year of Sem 1 courses in electrical, CS Physics and Maths are taught. The teachers are good. I don't think it is that relevant since what is the use of an electrical course for someone pursuing chemical engineering? Passing is not that difficult but maintaining a good CGPA definitely is.

This college is good in everything.

Faculty: Faculty is very helpful in everything. You can reach to them if you have any problem. Curriculum is very good. Exams are very hard so that we work hard and get good placements. They take exam in 1 month so we can check ourselves.

Absolutely dissatisfied with the course curriculum of mathematics and computing department at IIT D.

Faculty: Average teaching quality was very nice and some professors connected really well with us and conveyed concepts but we have some not-so-good professors too who aren't interested in average students and focused only on tips, which is not quite a good strategy. The course curriculum for my branch could be made more structured and flexible. Semester exams are difficult; it depends on the professor taking the course but overall, if you have prepared for the whole semester, it's easy and if you only d...

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...

Absolutely satisfied with my college.

Faculty: The professors here are very helpful and they have good knowledge about their respective fields. But you will be able to take benefit from them only if you are interested in learning from them, because sometimes they do not explain things properly. The course curriculum is specially designed after considering present demands. Our course is an interdisciplinary course made using some courses from Computer and mechanical. Semester exams are very difficult as heard from seniors specially APL.

Good college having excellent faculty and good placements.

Faculty: The teachers are highly qualified and a majority of them are quite understanding. However some are very particular about their courses and are extremely strict about attendance policies. The curriculum seems to be very useful, which includes mechanical workshops and Chemistry labs practical. The difficulty level of semester exams vary each year.

Great infrastructure and facilities, but faculty and placements need improvement.

Faculty: The teachers are well qualified and knowledgeable but do not teach properly. IIT Delhi courses have L-T-P structure, which indicates the number of hours for lectures, tutorials, and practical per week. For example, a 3-1-2 course has three hours of lectures, one hour of tutorials, and two hours of practical per week.

Really good infrastructure, excellent place to explore in any field.

Faculty: The teachers are very helpful. They have excellent qualifications from the best colleges in the world. Professors always support research-oriented projects. Semester exams are moderately tough and one can easily get a good CGPA with decent attention to the syllabus. I am not sure about the passing percentage but I guess it's around 60%.
