Yes, exams conducted at IIT Bombay are quite tough given the competition at the institute. The exams usually test your understanding capabilities and not your learning capabilities.
I did one subject which was very difficult and involved a project demonstration in the end. But the professors teach the topics so well that you hardly have to mug up the concepts.
Once the exams were conducted in a unique manner wherein,
The game changed its course and because marks were not to be allotted on the basis of the presentation everyone prepared the concepts well and attended the open contest.
One of my friends completed his MTech in Biomedical Engineering from IIT Bombay and gave an insight into the placement scenario of the same course. Out of 16 students who attended placements from this course, 14 students were placed. Another friend told me that 11 out of 17 in his batch were placed under decent roles. The others opted out of placements.
A number of Biomedical companies like GE, Cerner, L&T etc visit the campus and offer decent roles. Many non core companies also allow Biomedical students to sit for their placements and sometimes offer good roles too.
A number of analytics and data science jobs are also offered. Top core roles offered here are Associate Analyst, Lab Analyst,etc. Many students even opt for PhD after MTech.

The salary of an MTech graduate in Mechanical Engineering from IIT Bombay varies from branch to branch.
MTech students are usually hired by core companies that gain less profit than Software Companies and hence end up with lower packages than BTech students. Moreover, companies are aware that BTech students are all-rounders and thus prefer them to MTech students. However, the promotion of MTech students is faster than that of BTech students.
If you're looking to change your branch at IIT Bombay, there are two main factors that will determine how easy or difficult it is for you:
Here's a breakdown of what these factors mean for you:
Role of the first factor:
Role of the second factor:
Overall, getting a COB at IIT Bombay will depend on a combination of these factors, so it's important to be realistic about your chances and make sure you're prepared to put in the effort needed to succeed.
I haven’t heard of many people who actually join Electrical Engineering because they want to genuinely pursue Electrical. Rather most students take Electrical because their JEE Rank did not allow them admission to any other branch. In fact, some even take Electrical Engineering and opt for minors that match with their areas of interest.
When it comes to interdisciplinary subjects, IIT Bombay provides the perfect chance to do so. What usually happens is that students are unaware of their area of interest while choosing their branch during admission. As a result they end up taking disciplines that match their ranks rather than interests.
However, if you are clear about your choice of branch, don’t hesitate and go for it without thinking much of your rank. Although difficult, you can always change your branch if you later regret choosing that specific branch.
I always suggest aspirants only choose the branch on the basis of their preferences and not the placements. Even if you land a good job, you will never be satisfied if you are working in an area that does not intrigue or excite you.
Before securing an internship, you need to analyze some points that will make the process easier. Work on these and then embark on your journey to work as an intern.
Only once you are clear with these points, should you proceed to look for an internship.
Now, IIT Bombay has 2 main ways to offer internships to its students.
Ekalavya Internship Program:
Suitability: This is most suitable for those who are completing the 3rd year only. However, it may also be suitable for 2nd-year students with exceptionally good academic performance.
Procedure:
Write an email to the professor
This may sound like an ineffective technique to get an internship when in reality it’s the most under-rated, under-used tool for grabbing an internship abroad. But one must keep in mind that this method is not definitely easy as it depends on a number of factors. I have mentioned some tips that will help you get a clear picture of how to get an internship by writing an email to your professor.
I hope my answer helped get a good idea on how to get an internship offer at IIT Bombay.
If I have to be honest, I think pursuing Computer Science at IIT Bombay is just a sheep mentality-driven dream pursued by a majority of Indians. Not many who take CS are genuinely interested and passionate about it, rather they opt for it because most genius minds consider it the best option.
The media comes to play as it advertises the highly inflated packages offered to CS students at IIT Bombay. The aspirant gets attracted to such glittering figures and flocks to IIT Bombay in the pretext to land similar packages. The media and society mold aspirants to believe that money is everything in one’s career and should always be the priority. As a result, students tend to opt for CS and don’t even consider other Engineering branches for fear of getting packages lower than those offered to CS students.
One can easily conclude that most engineering aspirants are unaware of their inclinations and thus become victims of sheep mentality. I have seen many students who join Computer Science and later realize that it’s not their forte.
I have a friend who is pursuing M.tech in Electronic systems engineering at IISc and a cousin who is pursuing M.tech at IITB too. So, I seem to be in the best position to compare IIT Bombay and IISc Bangalore.
Ultimately, the final decision depends on what your prospects are and what you expect from your college life. If your main goal is to pursue full-scale research then IISc is the best place for you but if you also want to experience a great campus life and get placed then IIT Bombay will serve you better.
