IIT Guwahati is one of the original 5 IITs. best branches ranked by career outcomes and demand:

1. CSE (Computer Science and Engineering) — strongest placements, avg Rs.25-35+ LPA, top companies like Microsoft, Google, Amazon visit. most sought-after branch.

2. ECE (Electronics and Communication) — strong placements in both core and software roles. Qualcomm, Samsung, TI visit for core roles.

3. EE (Electrical Engineering) — strong for both PSU and software paths. good GATE scores typically from here.

4. Data Science and Artificial Intelligence (new program) — gaining traction quickly, very relevant for AI/ML industry career.

5. Mech, Chemical, Civil — decent for core engineering roles and PSUs. Mech especially strong for BARC, ONGC, IOCL.
