Faculty Our college has good set of highly educated faculties, they teach very nicely, clarify doubts very nicely, But in iits people prefer studying by there own, so don't panic if you don't see much student in class they would be sleeping in hostels because of long night studies they might have done in the night

Aapka All India Rank (AIR) 4888 hai IIT JAM Mathematics mein aur aap SC category se hain. IIT Kanpur ke pichle kuch saalon ke cut-off trends ko dekhte hue, SC category ke liye Mathematics mein closing ranks kuch is prakar rahe hain:

  • 2023: 355 se 1474 ke beech
  • 2022: 647 se 1286 ke beech
  • 2021: 119 se 1713 ke beech
  • 2020: 344 se 608 ke beech

In data ke adhar par, SC category ke liye IIT Kanpur mein MSc Mathematics ke liye cut-off ranks 1500 ke aaspaas tak rahe hain. Aapka rank 4888 hone ke karan, IIT Kanpur mein admission milna sambhavit nahi lagta.

Aap dusre IITs ya institutions ke cut-off ranks bhi dekh sakte hain. Udaharan ke liye, IIT Kharagpur mein Joint M.Sc.-Ph.D. Mathematics program ke liye 2023 mein SC category ka closing rank 1160 tha . Iske alawa, IIT Guwahati aur IIT Hyderabad jaise institutions mein bhi cut-off ranks thode zyada ho sakte hain, lekin fir bhi aapke current rank se kaafi kam hain.

Mera salah hoga ki aap dusre reputed institutions jaise NITs, IISERs, aur central universities ke cut-off trends ko dekhein aur wahan apply karne par vichar karein. Isse aapke MSc Mathematics mein admission ke chances badh sakte hain.

Dear Student,

Entrance exam ke baad IIT Kanpur ki M.Des ki fees kam nahi hogi. However, institute aapko scholarship de sakta hai agar aap eligible hain uske liye to. IIT Kanpur se Master of Design course karne ke liye aapko CEED ya GATE exam dena hoga and bachelor’s degree in Engineering or Science (4-year programme) or Design or Architecture bhi hona chhaiye. In case aap B Tech graduate hain from IITs with a minimum overall CPI of 6.5 and a minimum CPI of 8.0 in the last two years in B Tech, to aapko GATE/CEED dene ki koi zaroorat ahi hai. IIT Kanpur M.Des total fees is INR 94940. Aur information ke liye aap IIT Kanpur ki official website visit kar sakte hain. Best of luck!
