How is the faculty, college life and placements of BIT Mesra for EEE?

Hi, BIT, Mesra is regularly ranked within the top 15 engineering colleges in India. One of my friends’ experience of this college: Faculty - It is certainly not the best in the country, not even close. Some of the older professors are good but almost zero focused on research, means they are very outdated in terms of knowledge. Academic load - It borders between zilch and extremely light. It also varies between departments though. Electrical and electronics was pretty well taught and rigorous, whereas computer science was a stroll in a park. Electrical department has some very strict professors. Mechanical department is refreshingly hands on and students gain a very good practical understanding. Facilitates - Facilities (sports, labs and infra) are about at par with the NITs, although there is a lot of inertia whenever new infrastructure is to be installed. The college only had campus-wide LAN network in 2006. Even now, I hear the speeds are dismal and many useful websites are blocked. Placements - Due to the location, placements were not really something the institute could really brag about until after about 2006-07 onward. Nowadays, placements are quite stunning and companies like Facebook have offered mega packages and overseas jobs to a few students. In terms of quantity, placements have always been almost 100% with everyone landing some kind of job, and about 30% of the students end up with multiple offers. Another thing that holds it back is the location. Because of that, adequate exposure isn't available. Hence, a lot depends on your sustainability and curiosity out of the box.
