IIT Guwahati M.Tech Water Resources Engineering: Fees 2025, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

The reviewer, after passing the GATE 2017 exam, secured a spot in the Water Resources Engineering specialization within the Civil Engineering department at IIT Guwahati through spot round admission. The faculty, though experienced, face criticism for their reliance on slides and presentations, which can affect teaching quality if technology issues arise. While a few professors effectively engage students, the overall teaching effectiveness is questioned. During the 2017-2019 session, the total fee for the M.Tech program, including hostel, mess, and tuition, was approximately 98,000 to 99,000 INR for two years.

However, from 2020 onwards, the fee structure has increased significantly, and the previous stipend has been discontinued. Placement and job opportunities for M.Tech students, especially in the Water Resources specialization, are limited. Although other students have access to internships, M.Tech students received a stipend of 12,400 INR. IIT Guwahati's campus includes branches of State Bank and Canara Bank, which offer loans at reduced interest rates to support students financially.
