Legacy Campus + Modern Labs
Between thermo lectures, you’ll be living in a city that’s basically a living timeline. Hostels are on campus, scholarships are up for grabs, and the hands-on lab culture here is genuinely hard to match.
The verdict
Strong fit
If you love taking things apart and understanding how systems actually work, this program fits you well. With a 92% placement rate and core mechanical recruiters like Tata Motors, L&T, and Maruti Suzuki, you’re signing up for a degree that stays true to the stream. The total fee is under ₹5.1L, which is rare for an IIT tag. The only catch: you need a serious JEE Advanced rank to get in.
