Remarks :
I applied to a lot of IITs and got selected in IIT Guwahati. During admission, you have to upload a preference list of colleges. After every counseling round, you would get to know which college in your preference list can you are eligible to apply to based on the current cut-off. After the rounds, the highest eligible college from your preference list is selected.
Course Curriculum Overview :
The course curriculum is a bit outdated according to me. But then again, mechanical engineering is a very old branch. The faculty: student ratio is about 20:1. The professors are all highly qualified and knowledgeable, but their teaching methods may seem a bit boring.
Internships Opportunities :
Companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Flipkart, and Wipro come to our college for internships. Needless to say, there is no shortage of opportunities if you are ready to work for it. The monthly stipend ranges around 60-80k but can go as high as 2-2.5 Lacs.
Placement Experience :
You get eligible for placements from the 7th semester onwards. Many big giants visit IIT Guwahati for placements. The placement stats can be seen on the official website of IIT Guwahati. The percentage of students placed ranged from 95% in CSE to 25% in EP. The highest and average package is around 80 Lac and 15 lac respectively. Many students also prefer to go for higher education.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
The semester fee is around 1 Lac. You can apply for some scholarships, but the competition for those is very high. If you are from SC/ST/OBC/EWS , you can get some financial assistance from the college. There is not much scope for getting a job on campus.
Campus Life :
The life at IIT Guwahati is amazing. I feel IIT Guwahati stands apart from other IITs in the fact that there is not much academic pressure on the students, and students can and do participate in lots of other activites. There is a very active fest and club culture. Our cultural fest Alcheringa is one of the biggest in India. The library has more books than you can ever need. You can follow the pages of IITG Clubs and fests on Instagram to know more about them
Hostel Facilities :
Everyone gets single-occupied rooms, that's a big plus. The rooms are pretty basic (no AC). Hostel facilities include Library, TV Room, Sports Room, Sports Grounds, Washing Machine, Pantry, Music Room, LAN Internet, and wifi. However, the mess food is not good
