Course Curriculum Overview

The course curriculum of Engineering Physics is really well rounded and also quite challenging but for someone with a knack for knowledge it gets really interesting. Although in first year all students have common courses only

Internships Opportunities

4

The internship opportunities really open up from 3rd year onwards but even for first yearites and sophomores intern fairs are hosted as well as countless competitions which allow you to get some real projects under your belt

Placement Experience

As an IIT the placements are ofcourse top of the line. Although my branch is a lot more inclined towards academia but still students can apply for jobs of any field The opportunities to learn different skill is truly endless

Campus Life

5

The campus life may just be the best part of IIT Guwahati. Be it the general championship or Alcheringa the college truly comes alive multiple times a semester. There is a club for everything and if you find an interest which does not have a club then you can just grab your friends and make one

Hostel Facilities

4

The hostels may look old (because they are) but you only care about the size of the room( really small) for maybe a day because what truly makes the hostel are the people. You will your best friends in your hostel. The hostel culture is really strong as you live in the same hostel during the course of your degree.

Admission

I chose this college because it was one of the best college which provided engineering physics programme . I got into this college based on my JEE ADVANCED rank . The admission process is all through JoSSA and happens after the results of JEE ADVANCED

Faculty

4

The faculty members are highly educated as well as highly professional but that doesn't mean they are unapproachable. All professors are always just an email away . The faculty-to-student ratio depends on the branch. The exams can be a little demanding but nothing some all nighters can't handle :) Students do fail exams but that depends in professor to professor.

Night Life

5

There a lot of hangout spots in the 700-acre campus. The 5 lakes the countless canteens or the food court all sere as spots where students can come together to talk about nothing and everything. There are no in timings for students allowing true freedom. Couples find themselves sitting by serpentine lake.

Placement Experience:

Placements are not really good in our college, it is more of a research institute so it mainly focuses on PhD as PhD strength is good. Higher education is more prefered here but placement scenario is also good

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is very relevant and is different for different branches according to their needs. I was interested in civil engineering and chose the course and find the curriculum intersting and relevant for me . The curriculum offers subject which are important for real world applications, like in civil engineering it's offers subjects like building construction, solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, material testing, serving, etc. The course curriculum is very good but the teaching methods needs improvement like more digitalization . The exams frequency and timings are neither too late nor too early, they are perfectly planned and executed.

Course Curriculum Overview:

There exists a good teaching staff that's why the course is very easy to understand also teachers give us good examples also do practicals so that's students understand the course easily . I see that there exist a low no of equipments in practical lab compare to it's students ratio so if they have a good no of equipments then all students get equipment to do experiment without any waste of time . Time is good as compare to marks and the first 30 marks are beginner level the other 40 marks are intermediate level and the remaining 30 Marks are advanced level questions in a question paper for the students they published.

Placement Experience:

The placement scenario is quite good, with several reputed companies like General Electric, Power Grid Corporation of India, Goldman Sachs, among others recruiting 94 percent of the students in the college. The placement takes place in three rounds, one testing one's aptitude, followed by an hour round, finally leading on to a technical round. Mock interview and job cracking sessions are organized regularly, both by the departments, and also the Training and Placement Cell, to prepare students for the interviews and examinations going forward. The Training and Placement Cell also provides internship opportunities at the end of third year for the students, based on their aptitude and abilities

Remarks:

I have mostly positive remarks about college except for the fact that the college is situated really far from mainstream north India. Train connectivity is not that strong to rest of country. But despite that the college is extremely good in the sense of learning, meeting new innovative minds, and of course placements and jobs.
