Course Curriculum Overview :
I chose this course as I was interested in Materials Engineering and how the properties of materials can be altered to build better materials. The faculty: student ratio stands at 1:10, for every 10 students there is one faculty member. All the faculties here have done their Ph.D. in top universities of the world, and have a lot of experience as well, they are highly qualified. Each faculty have its teaching method, but mostly all of them prefer an interactive session among the students. We have exams almost every month and if the student pays attention to all lectures and solves all the tutorials it is very easy to pass the exams.
Internships Opportunities :
Top companies that offered internships include Barclays, IBM, DE Shaw, etc. The average stipend is around 1 Lakh. The internships are mostly to gain industrial experience, how companies work, and get a potential job offer from the same company.
Placement Experience :
Students become eligible for campus placements from the 7th semester. The top companies which offered jobs include Google, Amazon, HCL, IBM, etc. Around 90% of students who registered and were eligible for placements got placed. The highest package offered was 62LPA and the average package is around 16LPA. I plan to do my master's at one of the top universities in the USA.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
The fees are very reasonable here. 3L per annum, including all charges such as tuition, mess, hostel, and laundry fees. If the student's annual income is less, they are eligible to avail of scholarships provided by the institute. SC and ST students have their tuition fees completely waived.
