I choose MSc because of my high interest in mathematics. Faculties here are well qualified and experienced and most of the faculties have done their PhD and post doc. from well known foreign universities. Language of teaching is only english as the students are from the different parts of india and foreign as well. Teaching method is very good. Talking about exams there are mid term exams and end term exam in a semester. And difficult level is very high as compared to other universities other than IITs. Overall everything is worth doing.

Placement Experience:

Well, iits are known for their placements but as a MSc maths students i say placements are not good in my department. Last year there were zero placements from MSc maths, also this time the chances of placements are very poor. Eligibility is set by the company who come to recruit students generally if a student has 7.5 plus cgpa he or she is eligible for applying. I am one of the students who are not dependent on placement so i will go for phd after my Masters.

Choosing a course was a difficult thing for me as it is a prime institution and I had some limited options to take. I had a good interest in the robotics part since my Jee preparation, and I was also very fascinated with physics, which motivated me to take mechanical engineering. The faculty at IIT Kanpur are very qualified and experts in their respective fields, often involved in groundbreaking research. This could have been an important consideration for those interested in pursuing research-oriented careers. The exams are held twice in a semester, namely, mid-semester examination and end-semester examination, and quizzes were held before each of the exams. These exams are not that difficult if we are attending the classes regularly and are focused.

Placement Experience:

For the placements, there is a criteria on your CGPA that is fixed by the participating companies. Generally, a student must have a CGPA > 7.0 for a good job. The top recruiters are Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Intel, Qualcomm, Adobe, Oracle, McKinsey & Company, Boston Consulting Group, Deloitte, Accenture, PwC, EY, Goldmann Sachs, JP Morgan Chase, Citi Group, Dutsche Bank, HSBC, Siemens, BHEL, TCS, Schlumberger, ONGC, Flipkart, Zomato, and many more. In 2024-25 placements, a total of more than 1000 offers were made and accepted. Companies offered a highest package of 4 Crores and the average package is nearly 25 lakhs. IIT Kanpur has a placement percentage of 90% which is exceptional. I am planning to have a job after the degree and do an MBA in future.
