    College Infrastructure

    Infrastructure is the part and parcel of any prestigious university. Similarly it goes with HBTU as well.The academic building is set in a vintage style to the appeal of its founding father Sir Spencer Harcourt Butler.Most of the buildings are under reconstruction and recovery but overall it looks just as fine. The labs are well furnished with updated technology. HBTU is proud of its workshop which meets the standard of even IIT's. The living space are cleaned daily while the classroom is good.

    Academics

    I am pursuing Civil Engg from HBTU. Faculties are mostly sincere and dedicated professionals with some exceptions.However our curriculum is not updated.That same curriculum is followed from 90s onwards.Recent developments in truss and bridges is not covered in our curriculum.We do get some projects in our 3rd and final year but they are insufficient to be job ready.

    Placements

    Placements is what I assume to be the most important factor in taking admission in a certain college. Post COVID era the placements are on a rise but the rate is slow.Non core department show a good placements drive proving the University's excellence in chemical engineering.However core department lags in Civil, mechanical and electrical departments providing only for CS,IT and ECE. I personally feel that the placement cell has to be more active in this aspect.

    Value for Money

    My fees per year in HBTU would be around 2 lacs.This has increased from 2016 when it deemed to be a university which was around 1,25,000. You may feel like you are not getting your money's worth in HBTU especially if you are in Civil, Mechanical and Electrical.However, if you put into the extra efforts surely you will make it out successful.

    Campus Life

    Campus Life is fantastic.The seniors are amazing being needful and helpful in every way possible.You may feel being part of a family.There are various clubs and sub councils in which you can explore your interests.HBTU is located in Nawabganj which is close to the zoo and the nawabganj market.There is medical ambulance in case of an emergency.Also the Nawabganj thana is close by.

    College Infrastructure

    My college is bit of bad in terms of infrastructure, here you will get all the equipments but talking about their conditions is that they all may not work properly , Classrooms are good with smart board in each class .

    Academics

    Here I am pursuing btech in chemical engineering as it has very good exposure in field of chemical Engineering and I always wanted to be chemical engineer, due to its huge alumni network it has best future ,or you may say that your future is in safe hands if you are pursuing chemical Engineering from HBTU.

    Placements

    Placements are very good on an overall average 8 lakh of .. considering all branches and maximum is 60lakh .. about 80-85% students are being placed every year from HBTU kanpur.Placement process is easy here first you should satisfy eligibility criteria for the desired company and they you will seat for the interview process.

    Value for Money

    It cost 135000 for first year and 127500 for next 3 years . But paying fee for this collage is worh it because you will ready for getting placement and the end of 4th year , and here you get exposure for the next of your future if you want to carry out your education further

    Campus Life

    Campus Life is just awesome it has many councils and sub councils which is run by students bosy and the respective heads are selected through interview process , and talking about the professors it's on you how you make bind with teacher so that they can support you , location of the institute is quite good you have the market within 1km range

    My overall experience with this college is good till now

    College Infrastructure

    College infrastructure is not at par with nits, iiits. It's infrastructure is similar to the aktu college not good not bad. Classroom are moderate, library I. e. Central Library is best in the college, this is the thing that i compare with the colleges like nits, etc. Living specs , we can say clean yes and food is hygienic.

    Academics

    In terms of academics, only bookish knowledge is given no focus on practical knowledge they never encourage u to do some wonderful projects. The curriculum is not yet updated, old curriculum is followed by college department. Professors are good in Cse department if we compare it with other department

    Placements

    Placements is the only thing that worth it. In Cse department, the average package goes nearly 10 lpa and median package ranges between 9-10 lpa. Placement process is not that tough but the coding round and hr round takes place which makes it difficult to crack.

    Value for Money

    When u come to college your main motive is to get good placement with an enormous amount of knowledge, but when u are a cs student, then a laptop is sufficient for u to get knowledge, so at the end you want to take better placement which ultimately u get after 4 years. So, it totally worth your money.

    Campus Life

    Campus life is good, the main thing is mainly 80%people from up so u find many people from your own culture, so they are quite more interactive . The college is not in the remote place. Teachers are supportive in Cse department, they always help the students.

    Others

    Overall college is good however it has some good and bad features but overall when it comes to study quality, student quality, they all are great.Placement are nice. College is too old so it is having rich heritage.

    The infrastructure is old , the labs are well equipped . classrooms are spacious . The entire campus is enabled with WiFi of jio but it's very slow. The living spaces and campus surroundings are very clean but sometimes streets dogs find roaming inside the campus or even classes. The college lacks in providing good sports facilities.

    Academics

    Teaching quality is awesome. Hbtu really have educated teachers who has nice teaching skills and also helps students when needed. The curriculum is updated regularly and includes all the recent developments in the field.

    Placements

    Placements are the best in our college . The highest salary packages is like 60 LPA. There are Great recruiters .And the college has a very wide alumni network. The average salary package for all branches is 8-9 LPA . The College is also very supportive .

    College Infrastructure

    Infrastructure is not that good it is ok ok as the college is about 100 years old the buildings are maintained and the labs are being renovated with modern equipments and cleanliness is maintained in the campus but canteens are not good

    Academics

    Faculty members are well qualified either they are PhD holder or Mtech from renowned universities, curriculum is almost same as AKTU which focuses more on theory than practicals which is a major drawback in almost all indian educational institutions

    Placements

    Placement records are amazing here almost 90% students get placed and in technology branches it goes as high as 100 %average placement is around 6 lakhs per annum which is a good start for a fresh engineering graduate in India

    Placements

    placement is the main factors which attracts people here as per records almost 90% students get placed and few technology branches like paint plastic placements go as high as 100% and the average package is around 6 lakhs

    Value for Money

    fees is high as compared to few government collages but those collages stand no where in front of HBTU taking academic fees only it is around 135000 rs per annum and that can be waived with the help of state govt scholarships

    Campus Life

    campus life is good as proper cleanliness is maintained in the campus and whole campus is covered with cctv cameras teachers facuty is supportive seniors are also supportive and its a huge campus to roam

    College Infrastructure

    The infrastructure is one the main issues of this college. But we can see slowly improvement in the infrastructure. Specially the roads inside the campus been have improved in a good pace. The buildings are painted too.

    Academics

    Academics has improved from year 2019 because of recruitment of faculties from TEQUIP-III. These new teachers are disciplined, punctual in classes and have a good knowledge of their subject. Even sometimes they guide for competitive exams too.

    Placements

    This year the placement has improved too. But we didn't got much companies in civil engineering. But we got good improvement in the salary package. Some students even got it from companies like Google too.

    Have a question related to HBTU Kanpur ?

    Dear

    According to the information with a JEE Mains rank of 98,300 in the general category, getting admission to NITs, IIITs, or HBTI might be challenging as these institutes have higher cutoffs. However, you still have some options:

    State Universities:

    1. Uttar Pradesh Technical University (UPTU) : You have a good chance of getting admission to various branches here.

    2. Harcourt Butler Technical University (HBTI) : This university also offers several engineering branches, and your rank might be competitive for admission.

    Private Colleges:

    1. Thapar University : While it's a reputed institution, your rank might be on the lower side for top branches. However, you can still try for less competitive branches.

    It's always a good idea to check the latest cutoff trends and contact the admission offices of these universities for the most accurate information.

    For finding the best college you deserve use College predictor tool.

    Thanks.

    Hi

    hope you doing well

    You have a good chance of getting CSE with 93.34 percentile in JEE Mains 2024 and OBC-NCL category from Uttar Pradesh at HBTU (Harcourt Butler Technical University), Kanpur through AKTU/UPTU counseling.

    So, your CRL (Common Rank List) rank is around 61,800 .

    Generally, the OBC rank is around 25-30% of the CRL rank.
    Estimated OBC-NCL rank = 15,000 - 18,500.

    • HBTU Kanpur offers CSE under AKTU/UPTU counseling, and the cutoffs are typically high for this branch.
    • Based on past trends, the OBC-NCL closing rank for CSE at HBTU is usually around 20,000 - 25,000 CRL.
      Given your 93.34 percentile, your CRL rank of 61,788 and OBC-NCL rank of ~15,000 gives you a solid chance for CSE at HBTU under the home state quota.

    If CSE seems tight, you can still get some excellent branches like:

    • Information Technology (IT)
    • Electronics Engineering (ECE)
    • Electrical Engineering

    Best Wishes.

    How much marks should I score to get CSE in HBTI ????

    Hello Aditya,

    The CSE cut off  in computer science in HBTU was 22184 for the other state quota and for the Uttar Pradesh domicile quota, it was also the same. So you should get around 98 percentile in order to get the cse branch in this college.

    However the cut off may vary due to certain factors such as number of candidates appearing in the examination, previous year cutoffs and difficulty level of the examination and the number of seats available in the college.
