The Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) have excelled as the centres of technical learning for decades and this year too, they occupy seven places in the list of best ten engineering colleges in the India. This year, IIT-Kanpur jumped two positions up to be on the top, pushing last year's leader IIT-Delhi into the second place.
IIT-Kanpur started in a room in the Canteen Building of the Harcourt Butler Technological Institute at Agricultural Gardens in Kanpur with just 100 students, but today, in its golden jubilee year, it has 4,500 students with the student-teacher ratio being 10:1.
Almost all the IITs in India have good facilities and good student-staff ratio which is more important for good colleges. A special placement cell in all these colleges ensure 100 percent for the students in the respective colleges. Before a student enters any college he/she or his/her parents should make sure that some of these facilities are present in the college to ensure a bright and better future to the students when they pass out from the colleges.
