IIT Guwahati: Admission 2025, Fees, Courses, Cutoff, Ranking, Placement

It’s highly illogical to compare the likes of IIT BHU and IIT Guwahati with DTU. You cannot compare a tier-1 with a tier-2 college. IITs are home to the best minds of the country and the crowd IITs attract cannot be compared to an institute like DTU. The faculty pool is refined and highly learned at IIts that are recruited through a rigorous process. IITs are funded by the central government and the campus and facilities are at another level. 

From the above table we can infer that IIT Guwahati has the best placements and DTU and IIT BHU are at the same level. 

According to me, IIT Roorkee and IIT Guwahati are better choices than NIT Trichy. My preference is based on several reasons-

1. The learning experience at IIT Roorkee and IIT Guwahati is richer as compared to NIT Trichy.
2. As an IITian, you get to know a greater number of opportunities.
3. The research environment at IITs is richer and you will get involved in research work at an early stage of your undergraduate studies. Thus, if you are aiming for higher studies, IITs are a better option.
4. Placements depend on your stream. However, IITs offer better placement opportunities overall.
5. IITR and IITG have a larger alumni network to provide support and assistance. 

The above points are especially true for IITR and IITG as they are amongst the oldest and most renowned IITs. NIT Trichy is a well-renowned and excellent institution, however, IITR and IITG are better according to me. 

Artificial Intelligence is a specialization that is expected to be in high demand in the near future and its scope is yet to be determined. I don’t think it’s safe to go for a newly launched field that too from a new IIT. The program and institution both lack the necessary credibility. I would recommend you go for a general branch at a new IIT, a specialization like AI from a well-reputed institute. There are many factors one should consider like faculty, subject content, etc before going for a new specialization. 

Mechanical at IIT Guwahati on the other hand is a very safe choice considering the high credibility of the long-standing Institute. 

Both BITS Pilani and IT Guwahati are reputable institutions with strong engineering programs. It’s highly recommended that you go through the contents of the curriculum once before opting for any major. Most students skip this and regret it later as they are forced to study courses they least expected. Go through the books of these courses and determine if the matter intrigues you or not. 

IIT Guwahati Engineering Physics program covers a wide spectrum of fields. Although the placement scenario is average, it definitely quenches your thirst for knowledge of Physics and also prepares you for higher studies. 

Another good option for core physics is MSc at Kanpur or Kharagpur. Although EP will expose you to multiple options, you will require another degree. It’s better to analyze your interests deeply before making the final decision.

As far as the EEE at BITS Pilani is concerned, I am strongly against anyone joining BITS irrespective of the branch they choose. The curriculum is poorly structured and lacks flexibility. The placement scenario is deteriorating day by day. The exposure offered is null and thus BITS Pilani should be your last option when all doors are closed. You will end up wasting your time and money with no solid knowledge up your sleeve by the end of 4 years.

Ultimately, the decision of which program to choose depends on your personal preferences and career goals.

IIT Guwahati has better faculty than IIT BHU in the civil engineering department. IIT BHU has poor faculty; the professors lack the ability to communicate the concepts clearly to the students, and they do not have sufficient knowledge of the core subject, especially in the civil engineering department. They have been trying to give better classes to the students in recent years. But if you get the choice to select any of these two institutions in civil engineering, you can surely opt for IIT Guwahati.

Honestly speaking, this internet-controlled era hardly requires good teachers as everything is available on the net. You can get in touch with internationally proclaimed professors with just a click. As far as IIT faculty is concerned, all IITs have similar degree holders that are quality knowledgeable. 

A good teacher is the one that hones your talents to the fullest. They not only help you acquire knowledge but also shape your thinking style. Every institute has a few teachers that influence a student in a unique way. I am sure both IIT Guwahati and IIT BHU will have similar teachers. 

Ultimately, what matters is the environment and the activities that these colleges will provide us to expand our intellect and maximize our talents. Pay little focus on the faculty and look for the right field to enter that will help you shape your career. Personally, I would suggest you go for IIT Guwahati as it has more open-minded and active people in that area which will give you considerable freedom to think and perform.

When considering Engineering Physics, the choice of the institute is a secondary factor while your inclination towards Physics is the primary concern. The course is not for those who take it casually without genuine interest in it.

I think IIT Guwahati is a better institute for EP. Those who have a branch change of mind should take the batch strength into consideration as only 10% of the batch is allowed to opt out of EP.

Thus, unless you're certain of EP, I would recommend you go for BITS or top NITs. This will help you if you are looking for a core course.

Both BITS Goa Pilani and IIT Guwahati/Kharagpur are well-respected institutions with dynamic mechanical engineering programs. The choice between them depends on a variety of factors like location, campus culture, available resources, and specific research interests. BITS Goa/Pilani is known for its strong focus on research and innovation, while IIT Guwahati/Kharagpur is known for its strong faculty and resources.

My brother was a student of Mechanical Engineering at IIT Guwahati and I have a few points as to why IIT Guwahati is better than BITS

• IIT Guwahati has a spectacular campus surrounded by natural beauty giving it a resort-like ambiance.
• The accommodation facilities are top both with every student getting single rooms right from the first year
• Your passions and hobbies are given importance and you will find many that share your interests
• Excellent sports facilities
• The Mechanical Engineering department of IIT Guwahati has excellent faculty, especially in fluids, solids and thermal.

A few drawbacks of the institute are

• Its remote location leaves you isolated with no place to hangout near
• The Mechanical branch has mainly boys only 

All in all, IIT Guwahati should not be your choice if you want a laid-back college life filled with fun. However, if you are sincere about your career and want to pursue mechanical engineering, IIT Guwahati is the right place for you.
