The faculty at IIT Ropar is great. The majority of the professors hold a Ph.D. degree. They are cooperative and provide proper guidance in projects as well as examination preparations.
The lectures are enough for understanding the courses and you would not even need to take help from tuitions. Professors explain the topics in an easier way so that you can easily grasp their subject matter.
However, when it comes to attendance, you are required to maintain a 75% attendance. The professors are not lenient if the students miss the classes. The same goes with the assignments and presentations which need to meet the deadline. Delaying your submissions would only bring you in a tough position.
To become an assistant professor at IIT Ropar you must first obtain a PhD. This is the minimum eligibility criteria for any IIT to apply for the post of assistant professor.
Then you will have to compete with many other candidates and to stay above the competition you will need to have an outstanding academic career throughout.
You will also need to have various published papers in many international and reputed journals. This will give you an edge over others.
This is a suggestion beyond the scope of this question. But if you can start low in a company and struggle for 2-3 years, I believe that you can land a more lucrative and satisfying job later on. Doing an M.Tech and then a Ph.D. will take a very long time.
As some of my friends studied at IIT Ropar, and also after reading some reviews online, I can say that the best professor is Dr. Dhiraj K. Mahajan.
He values knowledge above marks and he takes his own open time exam for students to understand their potential.
He has guided 5-6 students personally for a year and with his efforts. He helped students in securing a job opportunity in Germany for international exposure.
Apart from him, here are some of the other good professors - Dr. Narayanan C. Krishnan, Dr. Nitin Auluck, Dr. Balwinder Sodhi, Dr. Deepti Bathula, Dr. Apoorva Mudgal, Dr. Yashveer Singh, and Dr. M. Prabhakar.
