B.Tech. in Energy Engineering - Batch of 2029

4.0Placements5.0Infrastructure4.0Faculty5.0Crowd & Campus Life5.0Value for Money
Review of IIT Guwahati by a sophomore pursuing B.Tech in Energy Engineering.
Placements: Almost 60–70% of students get placed through campus placements each year, which is a decent amount. The highest package offered last year was around 1.2 CPA, while the lowest was around 8–10 LPA. Talking about my course, the average package is around 28 LPA, with the highest being 70 LPA. 12 out of 20 students get placed through the college. Companies that recruit students include Zomato, Microsoft, Google, and many more.
Infrastructure: Talking about infrastructure, IIT Guwahati has one of the most scenic campuses in the country. The infrastructure of the classroom complex, academic complex, conference centre, and central library is very impressive and beautiful. Hostel rooms are a bit basic, and all the rooms have single accommodation. Wi-Fi in hostel rooms is a bit slow but works fine. Hostel facilities include washing machines on each floor, common reading rooms, a music room, a gym, a TV room, a warden's room, and pool rooms. There is also a canteen and a juice centre in each hostel. One can access medical facilities at the security desk 24/7 and also borrow sports equipment.
Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified, but some are really bad at teaching. Students might feel bored during their lectures, but that applies only to some teachers. The course curriculum is relevant to the industry. Talking about semester exams, they are pretty easy, with a decent pass percentage of around 80–90% or more.
Other: Alcheringa, Techniche, Udgam, and Spirit are the main fests of the college. Alcheringa is one of the biggest fests in Northeast India, with a footfall of around 1.5 lakh people. It consists of various events and lasts for 4 days and 3 nights. Each night features a concert, including a DJ night, a hip-hop night, and a cultural night.

4.6
4.0Placements5.0Infrastructure5.0Faculty5.0Crowd & Campus Life4.0Value for Money
You must join one of the premium institutes of India with world-class facilities.
Placements: Above 70% of students get placed in my specialization. The highest package is around 40 LPA, the average package is 12 LPA, and the lowest can reach up to 7-8 LPA. Top recruiters are Bajaj, Reliance, Texas Instruments, Switch Mobility, and many more companies. 3-4 students get internships out of 14 students from my specialisation in Ola, Eaton, TVS, and Texas Instruments.
Infrastructure: In IIT Guwahati, there are world-class facilities. There is one big central library with 4 floors and a huge seating area for every student, and Wi-Fi is free across the campus. AC and non-AC classrooms are also available. Labs are present with all the equipment. In my hostel, everything is present, like a separate library apart from the central library, a music room, a TV room, and Ethernet ports available in each and every room. The quality of food is great. If you don't like your hostel food, you can change to another hostel mess, but the quality of food is great.
Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified. Everyone has done their Ph.D., and this is the minimum criteria. They are very helpful and available for any kind of doubt, from personal life to course-related matters. They help out with any problem. The course curriculum is very relevant because companies come for direct roles by branch, and placements are above 85% for Power Engineering. Semesters are difficult. You have to work very hard to stand out in class. There is no fixed pass percentage. It is relatively graded, but you have to score more than 40 percent.

It is a very good and satisfying college.
Placements: The college does not provide a huge amount of internships, but you can do it by yourself. Alumni are helpful, and it is quite good. There are two placement seasons, and the placement percentage is quite high with good placement packages. Mostly, students are placed in different universities as associate professors.
Infrastructure: For the 1st and 2nd year, we have a double-sharing room which is very small for 2 people, as other rooms were originally designed for one person. Each person gets a bed, a table and a chair. The double-sharing room is very congested. Wi-Fi all over the campus with cctv security. There are different grounds for different sports. Labs are spacious and have all the apparatus used in industry. There are many cafeteria restaurants inside the campus.
Faculty: Faculty members are well qualified, but not that good at teaching and explaining concepts. They are well approachable, and always eager to help students. First there is an exam, but after that there is only work like working on review articles, research papers, etc.

4.0Placements5.0Infrastructure5.0Faculty5.0Crowd & Campus Life5.0Value for Money
IIT Guwahati is one of the top 10 colleges in India, with a vibrant campus of 700 acres.
Placements: In my department, Electronics and Electrical Engineering, in the power engineering specialisation, there is an 80 percent placement rate, but in other branches overall it is as low as 40 percent. In my specialisation, the highest package is 40 LPA by Texas Industries, and the average is 12 LPA. 5 students got internships out of 13 in different companies like Eaton, TVS, Texas Industries, and OLA. The top roles offered are as power electronics engineer.
Infrastructure: The whole campus is covered by free Wi-Fi. There is a big library called the Central Library. Every hostel has its own library, gym, music room, and sports rooms. Every hostel provides these facilities. AC classrooms are available. The quality of food is great every day you will get eggs, paneer, fruits, and other items changes daily. Every hostel has a three-mess facility, canteen, and juice centre. IIT Guwahati has its own hospital with every facility, and it is free of cost.
Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified and have a minimum of PhD holders from top IIT's and NITs. They are very helpful and available for any doubt, from career to personal life. The course is very relevant. The company directly comes for this role they are teaching, and it makes students industry-ready. The semesters are difficult. There are 4 semesters. In M.Tech course, 2 semesters are there, and the remaining two semesters we have to work on a project under a teacher. After completion, we get a degree. There is 100 percent pass percentage and it has the greatest faculty members in India
Other: I just wanted to do a Master's from IIT. The best things about this course is that it gives training that is directly required for company roles. Everything in this course is already perfect because our seniors get 100 percent placement. There are different types of events and fests cultural fest (Alcheringa), technical fest (Techniche), and sports fests. There are two types of sports fests one, Spardha, and the other, Spirit. Spirit is one of the biggest sports festivals of the Northeast, organized by IIT Guwahati every year.

Faculty: All the teachers are erudite. They are very friendly in nature and always encouraged students to study well. They have established friendships with some students, meaning they act like friends. Not a single teacher forcefully takes the class they are always in a good mood and love to take classes for students.
