What are the pros and cons of studying in IIT Bombay?

IIT Bombay is the dream college of many Engineering aspirants. Some major pros and cons of IIT Bombay are mentioned below:

Pros

• IIT Bombay is the elite Engineering college in India with almost 75% of 100 rankers targeting this institute.
• IIT Bombay offers a variety of courses in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry 
• It provides holistic development of students.
• The MNCs that visit during placements offer high packages that are quite appealing.
• Some of the top branches include CSE, Chemical, Civil and Mechanical. The faculty of all these branches are extremely learned. CSE students are busy with projects and usually get recruited by top IT companies while chemical engineering promotes research.

Cons

• IIT Bombay is not a university providing courses in other fields such as arts, dance, painting, or the law.
• Most of the courses focus on application only. For instance, even math is not pure but applied
• The quality of education is gradually deteriorating over the past few years despite all efforts to save it from the fall
• Most top students prefer to go for jobs rather than become researchers

The cons are not major enough to overshadow the pros yet and the Institute is expected to remain among the top for a few more years.
