IIT Guwahati B.Des : Fees 2025, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Bachelor of Design or B.Des is a great program offered by IIT Guwahati. Here are a few pros and cons to give you a better understanding of the course

Pros:

• Excellent placements: The Bachelor of Design at IIT Guwahati has amazing placements. The placement percentage is around 85-90%. The highest CTC in 2021 was recorded at INR 35 LPA and the average is in the range of 12-15 LP. 
• Easier grading: IIT Guwahati follows a relative grading system which means you will be graded relative to the students of your branch. This system is very easy and I know a student who had a 7.3 CPI of 7.3 in his first year but managed to score 9.2 in his third semester. Many others have an SPI above 9.
• Matter- The concepts taught are associated with the job roles you will be offered and the learning experience is great with very approachable professors. You will be given many projects to hone your skills. 

Cons

• Owing to the general assumption, people will consider you inferior for joining this branch. However, it’s much more than just art. It comprises web designing, app designing and other designing elements.

All in all, to make the most out of the program you will have to explore beyond academics and undertake challenging projects to broaden your knowledge base.

IIT Guwahati is safe not only for South Indians but for every student of the college. The campus is very beautiful and the serene ambiance attracts many across the country. There is no reason to feel insecure here. If it’s the Hyderabad people you are worried about, lay your worries to rest because they are the most friendly you will find. 

There is no impartial attitude towards students from any state and professors treat every student equally. Despite the language barrier, you can see great harmony between the students as they can often be seen playing together. 

You can find diverse peer groups here and the love for Engineering and nature can be seen as the binding factor between them. Parents of certain children often hesitate from sending their children to the Northeast but trust me after a few months you will think of IIT Guwahati as your home, such is its charm.
