IIT Guwahati College Review

This course mostly all the parts required to be a good civil engineer but one thing personally I think is that the curriculum is very old it should be updated. Lab facilities are very with high class lab equipments. After beginning of a semester after a month quizzes are there followed my midsem after 2 months then quizzes after a month of midsem then in last Endsem. Personally Grading in this course is relatively in good in comparison to other courses here in IIT guwahati. Difficulty level I would give 8 out 10. I would say engineering is hard having labs and classes make you whole day very busy.

College provides good internship opportunities with large no. of companies visiting for intership. Students entering in 5th semester are eleigible to sit in the intership. Around 300 students got intern with several PPOs in which most of the intern were of 100000 above majorly in the field of SDE.

Placements are good in IIT Guwahati. So students entering in 7th semester in Btech sit for the placement in which technical round or test start from sept to october and companies starts visiting from starting of the December. To sit in the placements students should not have any active backlog and CPI above 5. Total no. of comapanies visited were 246 which includes Google, Goldman, Microsoft etc. and no. of offers were made 1112 .Total no. of registered students placed were 83% with the highest international package was 2.4 cr and highest domestic was 1.2 cr with the average placement of 25.75 lpa and median of 21.63 lpa.

So, per semester it goes to 130000 rs for a General category student breaking it to 100000rs tuition fee and hostel fees around 30000 in which mess charge of 18000 is included and rest 12000 hostel rent including room charge, electricity and etc. For SC, ST students there is 100% tuition fee waiver. For Gen Ews if annual income is below 100000rs there is 100% tuition fee waiver and if below 500000 then 2/3 tuition if waived off. In campus we have MCM scholarship - Merit-cum-Means scholarship for financial assistance. I your department rank is 1 you get scholarship.

Overall campus experience is very good... it's a green campus with great infrastructure facilities being it hostels or Acedmic area. Lakes add beauty to the campus. College has so many clubs like cultural, technical, sports, welfare and so many other students run bodies are there. We have annual cultural fest Alcheringa - North east largest fest held in moth of Feb and tech fest Techniche held around in october. Library facility is good one problem is there it only open 24x7 during exams only else it open up to 2 am.

Hostel facility is amazing. Registration for hostel and mess is done during your admission to college automatically. Total no. of hostel are 14 in which 10 boys hostel and 3 girls hostel and one married scholar hostel. After the admission process hostel is alloted to students randomly. For first and second year students of btech double occupancy room is provided which has a cupboard, an open almirah, lan port, two bed, a chair is and a table though you can ask for one more chair and table but rooms are not meant for double occupancy so it creates problem as it occupies lot of space. Sports, music, gym, canteen and stationary is available in hostel. In mess you get food of diiferent variety covering the food of every places of India. Hostel charge is 33000 which includes mess and rent. Food quality is good but it varies hostel to hostel but overall it's good. Twice in a weak special dinner is provided which has paneer for vegetarians and chicken for non-vegetarians.

I want to share my experience with you about applying to IIT Guwahati. Getting In: First thing first, you need to make sure you meet the requirements like in 12th grade you score should be 75% above for GEN category and 65% for other SC, ST. Two exams are there... on qualifying JEE Main you are eligible for JEE Advanced after clearing this test also you go through Josaa seat allocation round. Extra Help: If you're from a special category like SC, ST, OBC or GEN EWS or have any disabilities, there are benefits available for you. SC - 15%, ST -7.5%, OBC-27%, GEN EWS - 10% and 5% in every category for person with diabilities more than 40%. Exams in College: In every semester 2 exams- Midsem and Endsem and 2 Quizzes one before midsem one after midsem. I can see scoring good grade is tough in IIT Guwahati in comparison with other iits. Improvement in admission process: JEE Main seems to be very unorganised exams considering several shifts and there different percentile system.
