Overall Rating
Studying at IIT Kharagpur has been a truly enriching experience. The combination of rigorous academics, supportive faculty, and a vibrant campus life makes it a unique place to learn and grow. What initially drew me here was the institute’s reputation for excellence in research and innovation plus placement, but what truly stands out is the collaborative and inclusive environment. The campus offers countless opportunities helping students explore their potential to the fullest.
 

Academics Rating
Jee Main and Jee Advanced Exam is mandatory to join the institute, and the courses are offered on the basis of the rank achieved in JEE Advanced exam. However, you can choose the desired branch if you are fulfilling certain parameters. Another qualifying exam for the entrance is GATE. Enrolling in any of the programs provides opportunities to engage in cutting-edge research, collaborate with global experts, and prepare for impactful careers in academia and industry.
 

Faculty Rating
Faculty Members are excellent. They are mostly research oriented and have in-depth knowledge in their background. Their teaching pattern is also very unique. They generally hold their doctorate and other degrees from prestigious institutions worldwide. They are highly approachable, guidance in academics, research and career development. Interactive lectures, hand-on experiments and real-world case studies make learning dynamic and engaging.
 

Placement Rating
Yes, there is a Placement Cell whose work is to manage the intern and placement in the institute. As per the current report, IIT Kharagpur got 1000+ offers from the companies that also include PPO during the first phase of placement statistics starting from day 1 of December 2024.
 

Hostel Rating
Hostels are well equipped. 24 hours Wi-Fi facilities, water and electricity. After 2nd years most students get the single room however fresher have to adjust in triple sharing initially. Grand dinners in a semester and special dinners kind of themes can be seen.
 

Infrastructure Rating
The campus spread across 2,100 acres with the infrastructure designed to facilitate the academic and holistic development. Academic blocks are well equipped with advanced research labs and innovation centres. Other amenities include a central library, sports complex, healthcare center and many restaurants. The green environment and excellent connectivity make it an ideal place for education and personal growth. Swimming pools, gymnasium, shopping center, banks and open spaces for cultural and technical events create a vibrant ecosystem for the students.
 

Campus Rating
My institute has various clubs and societies providing a wide range of options to the students to fulfill their hobbies and opt for what they were dreaming in the past to achieve in future. Fests such as spring fest and Kshitij are world famous, inviting the artists from international and national to perform along with many kinds of social, cultural and technology activities during the daytime.
