Dislike

The majority of professors are downright arrogant, and instead of delivering quality education, they like to believe that they have a bunch of idiotic, drunkard, and irresponsible students to teach.
Now that your Google form insists on completing 100 words for this question, I am left with no other option but to write unnecessary content.
As mentioned earlier, the hostel quality is very poor in terms of facilities and accommodations, so we feel very uncomfortable here. This discomfort negatively affects our studies.
The institute itself provides hostels for student accommodation, but the hostels are in very poor condition.
The only remark is the infrastructure because it was a 100-year-old institution, Banaras Hindu University, and we are a part of it. I am not happy with the hostel facility.

From the 7th sem, students become eligible for campus placements. Some of the famous companies which visit our campus include Microsoft, JPMC, etc. The highest package touches around 1.5 crores and the minimum around 7-8 lakhs. At least 1500 offers were made this year during placements Almost all the students sitting for placements get placed. My plan is to go for higher studies after getting the degree.

In IITs you don't select a branch you get it coz of your rank. The same thing happened to me of course. Faculty to student ratio is pretty good here. Faculties are definitely highly qualified and old professors had a traditional method of teaching. In a semester, there are two term exams- mid-term and end-term.

LIFE AT MY COLLEGE

7.3Helpful

In my family, there is already 4 civil engineer so I influence by them thus I also choose this course. In my batch there are 140 students and maybe around 550 students in civil engineering and the available faculty for them are 30 so the ratio is quite good (i.e. for every 20 students there is one faculty available) Faculties are very knowledgeable and have remarkable qualifications from foreign countries and teaching methods are available both offline and online. Smart techniques are also available like projector, mic, speaker etc. There was 2 exam in each semester and the total semester is 8 so we have to give 16 term exams and there is also summer vacation and winter vacation between them. Difficulties are not much that issue every student starts to study a week before the term exam and got decent marks.

What are the views of IIT-BHU students about Kashi Utkarsh?

Ayush Singhstudied at Indian Institute of Technology Varanasi

Kashi Utkarsh is an initiative of IIT BHU students. Through this initiative, they try to help people living in the slums near Varanashi. Due to poverty and poor hygiene, the kids in the slums have limited scope for development.

Some of the activities of KU are as below.

On weekends students travel to the slum areas and teach the kids for Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya admission test. They also persuade parents to send their kids to schools. This may sound easy but many parents need a lot of convincing and committed efforts.
KU with the help of IIT BHU students helps raise funds to pay the school fees of these kids.
KU also raised funds for special emergencies. For instance, a few years back KU helped raise funds for the operation of a girl with a hole in her heart. The operation happened in Bangalore. Few students and Professors took care of the kid through the whole process.
