Swetha Tanamala's Review on IIT Madras - Indian Institute of Technology

I have done two internships one in Altisource and other as a role regarding software developer. The stipend is around INR 30,000 per month.Placements are excellent with the minimum salary package of INR 12 lakhs per annum and highest salary package is around INR 82 lakhs per annum. I don't know much about alumni network.

There are 3 to 4 hostels for girls. For boys it is more than 15. Hostel fee is around INR 21,000 per semester. Food in college is good. It costs around INR 90 per day. Infrastructure is also pretty good in IIT Madras.

The eligibility criteria for this course is Indian Institute of Technology Joint Entrance Exam(IIT JAM).

Each semester students are allowed to do maximum 30 credits and minimum 19 credits. Commonly it is credit based course. A 2 credit course will be having 2 classes a week, 3 credit course will be having 3 classes a week, 4 credit course will be 4 classes a week. Quality and method of teaching will be dependent on the professor of a course. But overall our quality of learning is very excellent. 

M.Tech course fee at IITM with hostel fee is around 43,000 INR per semester. Scholarships are available with many options according to parents income and the rank gained by the student. Don't know much about the number of students who got the scholarship.

There are numerous activities in the colleges. They are of co-curricular, extracurricular types. Two major fests named shaastra and a technical festival and Saarang. Entire college life is filled with fun.
