Overall Rating
In November 2022, I enrolled as freshmen in the Physics Department of IIT Kanpur. The reputation of this esteemed institute, which is placed fourth in the NIRF rankings, is one of the key reasons I chose it. It was also the perfect pick for me because of how close it was to my home. I've had nothing but the best experiences these last two years. The expensive, beautiful campus offers an atmosphere of peace that is ideal for studying and unwinding. Being a student here is even more enjoyable by the outstanding infrastructure.
 

Academics Rating
I have had a great academic experience this far in the physics department. All the first-year students studied the same subjects. Starting in the second year, we were able to specialize in our chosen fields of study. I love physics so much because it's thrilling to learn new things every day. Modern libraries and labs that foster intellectual growth and creativity are well equipped on campus.
 

Faculty Rating
Professors are highly qualified and dedicated to coaching students. Many have obtained Ph.D from prestigious foreign institutes. Modern teaching methods and technology used in well-facilitated lectures ensure an in-depth and engaging learning experience. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, offering priceless advice and assistance. The learning process is greatly enhanced by their commitment to the academic success of their students and their enthusiasm for the subject.
 

Placement Rating
My seniors have told me great things about IIT Kanpur Student Placement Office (SPO), which is renowned for providing prompt support during the internships and placement seasons. Even though I'm not going through the process right now, I appreciate the important assistance they provide in getting the kids ready for the workforce.
 

Hostel Rating
The outstanding housing infrastructure at IIT Kanpur provides a range of services to meet the academic and recreational demands of students. Every hostel has clean amenities like reading rooms that provide a comfortable setting for learning. Sports fans can also take advantage of vast grounds, basketball courts, and badminton courts which promote a balanced and healthy lifestyle. All things considered, students can live in supportive and rewarding environments in the hostels.
 

Infrastructure Rating
IIT Kanpur has outstanding facilities that enhance both student life and academic performance. Modern lecture halls, modern labs and a huge library are in the campus to support prolonged study and research. Comfortable living is ensured by its well maintained residential buildings, which are enhanced by recreational features including sports centers and green areas. All things considered, the infrastructure of IIT Kanpur fosters a dynamic experience where creativity develops and students can achieve academic success while taking advantage of a well-rounded campus life.
 

Campus Rating
The Campus of IIT Kanpur is alive with a wide range of happenings. The cultural festival, Antaragni, honors artistic expression via theatre, dance, and music, the technical fest Techkriti, features Technological innovation. The sports festival, Udghosh, fosters a spirit of competition in a variety of sports. Students flourish in clubs devoted to hobbies like chess, electronics, programming, dance, music, etc. and more in addition to these major events, creating a lively community where talent and passion meet.
