Placement Experience:

In terms of placements, IIT Kanpur is the best IIT. Its average package is Rs. 33.5 lacs per year and the CSE average is 42 lacks per year. This year the highest package was received by an electrical guy which was 4.2 crores per year and the highest domestic package was 1.9 crores per year. A large no. of companies including GOOGLE, MICROSOFT, and AMAZON. GOLDMAN SACHS, JANESTREET visits IIT Kanpur. Students are eligible for placements after the 7th semester. The placement percentage is not disclosed by the institute and since I am a fresher, I have no clear idea about it. After getting the degree, I am planning to write UPSE CSE.

Remarks:

IIT Kanpur takes admission in UG B.Tech. courses based on JEE Advanced rank. Usually, it opens around 100 ranks for general candidates and closes around 9500 ranks. For a student to write JEE Advance exam, he must have qualified JEE mains, which is organized by NTA twice a year (usually around January and April). The counseling is done through JOSAA in six rounds. The application form for JEE Advanced starts around June after the declaration of JEE Mains results. The application fee is rupees 2800. Usually, the result of JEE Advanced is declared within 10 to 15 days after the exam, after which the counseling starts, which lasts for about one month. After the seat allocation in the sixth round, I got an email from the institute congratulating me on admission to the institute, followed by some other email having the login credentials. IIT Kanpur also allocates a Student Guide to students, who mentos them in their initial days and introduces them to the culture of the college.

Placement Experience:

Nearly 100% of students are placed, with an average placement of 15 LPA. 40-50 students getting more than one crore in placements. PPO placements are also really popular here. Big companies like Land Rover, General Electric, Google, and Microsoft offer placements.

Remarks:

Admission is granted only after clearing JEE Advanced. For getting enrolled in at least one course through a gender neutral and open pool, AIR 9000 is sufficient. The exam is tough and requires a lot of time and hard work for preparation. Once the exam is cleared, 6 rounds of counseling take place. Once eligible for admission registration process is easy.

Placement Experience:

after the sixth-semester students are eligible for campus placements. James Street, quant is most the top companies that came for placement and each gave you different offers. The highest package is around four crores which is a software company and the average package is around twenty lakhs .seventy to eighty percentage students got placement. I want to work with a software company after getting the degree

Remarks:

You can find the application form on this website jeemain.nta.nic.in and the application fee is around 650rs for GENERAL and OBC,325 rs for SC, and ST and you can see other detail on that link that I already put it. Eligibility --you have to pass the 12th class with above 70 percent and it may vary. admission process--you have to give an exam that is JEE. First, you have to pass JEE MAIN and also have to shortlist for JEE ADVANCED, one of the toughest papers in India. On the JEE main basis, you got selected for NIT and on the JEE advanced basis, you got IIT. if you got any of these then your counseling process is going to start within 1 month after JEE ADVANCED result and counseling is held by JOSSA & then at the last round they give you a final college and you have to visit their college site for further information(it is only for those you got IIT in the final round).
