The IIT Law School or Rajiv Gandhi School of Intellectual Property Law,IIT-Kharagpur offers two degrees: LLB with Honors in IP Law and LLM
Although the criteria are similar for both these degrees, the qualifications required are way different. For admission to LLB. For Admission to LLB courses, you need to have a B.E/B.Tech/M.Sc/MBA with a science/engineering background.
Admission process

In my opinion, Food and Agriculture Engineering course offered at IIT Kharagpur is indeed a good option for those inclined toward this field. Here are a few pointers as to why choosing this program is worthwhile
All the above opportunities are lucrative and can appeal to anyone who is genuinely interested in the branch. Moreover, IIT Kharagpur placements are also decent for the branch because most non-core companies allow the students of this branch to sit for placements.
VLSI has become one of the most preferred branches of the ECE department. Its placements are similar across all the top IITs with the top recruiters being Intel, Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, Cadence, Synopsis, Analog Devices, TSMC, etc.
However, the difference lies in the quality of professors and their respective expertise. A few IITs with their area of specialization are as follows
If placements are your only concern, I will suggest you go for IIT KGP which usually enjoys 100% placements with an average package of around INR 17 LPA.
Unlike other IITs, IIT Kharagpur has no specific portal for outside students to apply for summer internships. Now the question arises, in the absence of a specific portal how do students apply for internships?
Well, the official website of IIT KGP has a faculty section containing information on the research work of faculty of various departments. There is a lot of information on their experience level, personal information, and ongoing projects. Based on your own interests, you can contact the professor whose work intrigues you the most.
The next step is to make a good resume including all your project activities and subject-specific knowledge. Include the SOP, mention why you chose IIT KGP, that specific area, and your future goals. Send this resume to the email address of the professor you wish to intern under.
Lastly, don’t lose hope if you don’t get replies immediately, and stay consistent.
It is not an unknown fact that the CSE department of IIT Kharagpur is the best of the entire institute and has amazing academic records. So I will be discussing things that are not academically relevant
To sum it up, IIT Kharagpur is a good place for students considering joining the CSE branch.
For your information, the Agriculture Department of IIT Kharagpur itself is around 300 acres whereas the entire IIT Delhi is sightless less than 400 acres. The huge area of IIT KGP is definitely not a boon and might actually work against you. Moreover, it’s not a brainer that Electrical Engineering seems to be a better option than Agriculture Engineering unless you have an interest in the latter. NSUT itself is a pretty decent institute and is much in demand because of its central location.
In short, I recommend you to join IIT Kharagpur (Agriculture) only under 2 circumstances,
For this, the IIT tag will be much more useful than NSUT. The entire answer is based on my opinion only and not on any data.
Internships at IIT Kharagpur are usually research based on a specific topic. To apply for research internships, check the listed steps first:
Additional tips would be to write a very good cover letter and have a good academic background to get a good internship offer.
When it comes to MNC at IIT Kharagpur, the course is primarily focused on Mathematics, while only a small portion is related to coding or computer sciences. However, this can actually work to your advantage because the course structure of MNC department at IIT Kgp offers you an equal opportunity to enhance your skills in coding as well as in Finance or Analytics.
Moreover, if you happen to fall in love with your course, you also have the opportunity to pursue a Phd in Applied Mathematics as you will be graduating with an MSc degree.
Besides the academic advantages, you can also benefit from the well-developed Institute culture and Placement Cell of IIT Kharagpur, which can help shape your career. Taking all of these factors into consideration, I strongly recommend that you consider pursuing MNC at IIT Kharagpur.
I guess you are enquiring about the research culture of IIT Kharagpur rather than the life of a Ph.D. student as his/her life is based on research only.
It is not necessary to be confined within the walls of your department lab as a Ph.D. student. Some choose the relaxed way and enjoy their campus life to the fullest as well.
Before we discuss the benefits of doing minor in IIT, let’s get a clear picture of what exactly a minor is. Minors are electives chosen by people who are interested in pursuing research in any particular field of interest in postgraduate education. This particular elective is usually not a part of the major and hence it is called a minor.
For instance, if you belong to the Department of mechanical engineering but are willing to conduct some research in computer science in postgraduate education, then a minor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering is a good option.
Some rules pertaining to selecting a minor in your discipline, RS follows discipline:
Steps to get a minor are as follows
