Positive: Lush greenery cleanest campus. Awesome placements. Very strong Senior-Junior relationship. Negativity: No air connectivity in Dhanbad. One have to ride 3 hours to reach nearest airport. Some professor's are not world class.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

Course curriculum is vaste and diversified. Their main focus is fundamentals. Every main subject has practical as well. Thought they teach few Outdated subjects as well mostly because of understanding purpose but most course is very unique.

Placement Experience

5

Placements are really good. One among the best placements for CSE and Earth Science branches. CSE avg placement is around 20LPA Almost 100% placement in both. In third year we get internships with almost 50% students getting industry internship. Stipend for internship to industries ranges from 50k to 2Lacks. Some students also intern at foreign university / industry.

5

There is some going on in the campus almost every week. But those which is really interesting are: 1) Concetto : Tech fest with almost 10000 are part of the event 2) Srijan : 3 day Cult Fest with footfall of 20k and budget around 1Crore.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Feasible. Total fees of IITs for four years is approximately 10Lac. If you get 2/3rd fee waiver(Family income below 5lacks) it is around 5Lac. If you get MCM scholarship it is around 2.5Lac effectively If you belong to SC/ST or Family income less than 1Lac then it is around 2.4Lac.

Fees and Financial Aid

Numerous state Government, NGO, Industrial, Central Government provide scholarship for almost all students. MCM Scholarship is availed by most. Whereby entire tuition FEES is waived off. SC/ST students need not pay any fees. Interest free lones are sponsored by government of India (Vidhya Lakshmi Loan)

Campus Life

5

There is a SAC(Students Activity Center) which house more than 50 clubs. One can make his/her own club as well. Labs have state of the art infrastructure. There are 2 grounds : cricket, Football, Hockey etc. All Olympics sports are played here.

Alumni/Alumna

Alumni network is really strong as institute is almost 100 years old. Many MDs etc of various companies are from ISM. Alumni are well connected to the institute. There is an annual fest BASANT evere alumni are invited

Admission

JEE Advance. First of all you have to qualify JEE mains and JEE Advance. You have to be in top 2000 AIR to get CSE. Top 3000 for Maths and Computing. Top 7000 for Petroleum. Top 9000 for other earth science departments.

Faculty

4.5

Faculties are quite good. Most of them are research oriented. Most of them follow self thinking approach for teaching. But some faculties don't give good marks. They say "You are engineering and accuracy is what distinguishes you and you can't afford to commit any mistakes.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Since I am a diploma holder in civil engineering, I had to choose the same branch in B.Tech also. But actually I chose this college because my diploma friends were taking admission in the same college. The college needs some improvements, but the surrounding areas need more improvement.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I will rate the course curriculum decent because it cover the basic engineering concepts that made me choose this course and it prepare us okay for real-world or higher study, but still more practical work and updated teaching method needed, and exams come mostly every semester with some internals which are moderate tough but manageable with regular study. There are some teachers who teach very well and have good teaching methods.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I feel the course curriculum is okay and the basics are covered well, which is one reason I choose this branch, but some subjects feel outdated and not fully connected to real industry work. It prepare us for further studies more than practical jobs. Exams come every semester with internals in between, difficulty is moderate but few papers become tricky. I think more practical topics, updated labs and better teaching methods will make the curriculum more useful...

Placement Experience:

One of my colleges best features is its placements program, which offers fantastic chances for students to launch their carrers. In the fifth and sixth semesters, students are prepared with aptitude training sessions, group discussions, and resume construction. About 85% of qualified pupils were placed during the previoes school year. Compared to core engieering fields, placements rates were marginally higher in IT branches.
