IIT Madras has a beautiful campus. If you are an animal lover, you will love it. Blackbuck runs around the campus like stray dogs. Monkeys can enter your hostel rooms anytime, and rob you. It’s also pretty normal to see Hyenas roaming around the campus at night.

IIT Madras campus used to be a part of Guindy National Park. Different departments are literally scattered around the jungle. The campus has many overhead tanks. You can sneak out at night with your friends and watch Chennai city from the top of these tanks (though it is against the rules).

Elliot beach is only 4 km away from the campus. You can take your bicycle out to watch the beautiful sunrise from the Bay of Bengal.

IIT Madras has a beautiful campus. It is located inside a forest. The forest is quite green and dense at some points. You will find old trees growing there. There is also a lake inside the campus. You will see deers and monkeys roaming around the campus. You will get to see a lot of different birds too. You can even see hyenas on campus at night.

IIT Bombay is somewhat crowded in comparison. It has a lake with a boathouse where you can go and spend time with your friends.

A few of my friends graduated from both IIT Madras and IIT Bombay. Here are some points that might help you choose the better institute. This question is very subjective and the answer to this depends on your preferences.

The top rankers prefer IIT Bombay due to its reputation and performance.
Placement opportunity is marginally better as most corporates are having their Head Offices in Mumbai.

Advantages of IIT Madras –

The top IIT in South India is the choice of any South Indian.
The culture of preferring academics over jobs. Better candidates prefer to go for higher studies.
The campus is beautiful and has a green and clean environment. If you are a nature lover you will love the environment at the IIT Madras campus.
