B.Tech. in Biosciences and Bioengineering - Batch of 2029

4.0

College is fun. Whatever you want, you will get in college. Just enjoy.

Placements: 70 percent of students from our college are placed. Many went for an MBA, research, Ph.D., and some went for government exam preparation. The average package is 18 LPA. For my branch average package is 16 LPA, and the placement percentage is about 66 percent. All the top companies that you think will be present.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities available here are quite good. You will get Wi-Fi in class room, lecture hall, labs, and library. You will have a reading room in your respective hostel, also with full AC and Wi-Fi. Hostel food is okay, not that great, and the washrooms for a few hostels are neat and clean, while for some are dirty.

Faculty: Teaching, I can't say it is fully useful as it follows the old curriculum, which is not as useful for current industry needs. But the teachers are highly qualified and have a lot of knowledge. Semester exams are a mix of easy and tough exams. Some professors are very chill, and some are so strict that they fail half of the class.

Other: This course is good. Events and festivals in our college are the best part, and you will get a lot of such activities happening every months and after a while you will get bored with all those things.

The faculty is good, the environment and campus are beautiful, and seniors are great.

Placements: I guess 50% of students are placed in my branch. 12 LPA is the highest salary in my branch, and the lowest in my branch, Bio Science and Bio Engineering, is Rs. 40,000 per month. Going for a Master's in Biochemistry, Bio Sciences, and Bio Engineering is considered a good option in my branch.

Infrastructure: There is a specific building for each course and department on our campus. Wi-Fi is available in all buildings, including academic buildings, libraries, canteens, and the mess. The hostel culture is great, and seniors are very welcoming and supportive. A common hospital is present on our campus for all people.

Faculty: Most teachers are helpful, very qualified in their specialties, and knowledgeable in every aspect. There is a slight language barrier between teachers, professors, and faculty members due to different accents. The course curriculum is very relevant, and all data is shared at the start of the tenure.

I do not know about the lowest package. The top recruiting is done for researchers in DNA and its replication. The top role offered is a bioinformatics analyst.

Infrastructure: All things are so good. The infrastructure of the Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati, is very nice. In our classrooms, Wi-Fi does not work properly. Classrooms are very good with proper working AC. The quality of food is very good. Medical facilities are also good.

Faculty: Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati, has over 500 faculty members. They are PhD holders. The course curriculum is updated regularly to include emerging technologies like 6G, VR, biomedical engineering and technology, and growth in artificial intelligence.

I am really enjoying life here and it is definitely worth it all.

Placements: 69% of students got placed in my course and many students went abroad for research as Biosciences has a good scope in research too. The highest package is 52 LPA and the lowest package is 6 LPA. The average package offered is 16.34 LPA. Bioengineering, biotechnology, medical devices, and diagnostics are the 3 main specialisations in which students get placed in the core sector.

Infrastructure: Labs for biotechnology are highly developed and maintained. Research is highly encouraged and interested students can work under-educated professors to help themself go forward with their particular interests in research. Medical facilities are quite good as it is basically free for the students of IIT Guwahati up to 1 lakh. There are indoor sports in almost all the hostels. For outdoor sports, there are well-maintained courts for badminton, lawn tennis, cricket, squash, basketball, volleyball, etc. There is a swimming pool too for the swimmers.

Faculty: Faculty members are good and are well aware of the courses they are teaching. Professors are highly qualified. Those people have written books about their subjects so their knowledge cannot be questioned. The courses contain more theory courses in the 2nd year and practical knowledge oriented in the 3rd year. So it makes students industry-ready. Exams are not tough or easy.

Other: IIT Guwahati has one of the most beautiful campuses among other institutes of India. Lakes, the greenery, and the sunsets will just make us fall in love with it. Fests are just crazy. We will get to meet new people and the exposure we get on the campus is good. Students as individuals learn new things apart from their studies. Seniors are very helpful and supportive. If students feel the fee is too much for their family to afford, then students with low annual incomes get a fee waiver from the college.

Most beautiful campus in India with great placements and facilities.

Placements: Around 69% of students got placed in our course. The highest salary package offered is 51.03 LPA, the average is 16.34 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered is 6 LPA. As far as the biotech core is concerned, there are recruiting pharma companies like Piramal Healthcare, etc. but for students of the BSBE field pursuing SDE, there are big recruiters like Adobe, Oracle, BNY, etc.

Infrastructure: College offers 24/7 air-conditioned classrooms, students can access labs and classrooms to study at any time. We have a big central library spread across 3 floors and a ground floor and 24/7 open during exams. All course books are available and apart from that novels, magazines are available. We can request books as well as we can issue them. Hostels are also in good condition except few. There are 14 hostels, 2 for girls, 1 shared for both girls and boys, and the rest are all for boys. We have libraries in the hostel. Facilities like a gym, sports room, music room, TV room and canteen are available. We have an IITG hospital with a 24/7 ambulance facility.

Faculty: Teachers are very knowledgeable, but some don't teach well, while some are excellent at teaching. The course curriculum has AI and ML in the 3rd year as a part of Biotechnology. It is one the easiest courses in IIT Guwahati and can be done 1 week before end-semester.

Other: I chose this course because of IIT, and the best thing about the course is we get a lot of free time to work on ourselves and upskill ourselves. In the 5th semester, we have a hectic schedule, which I want to change because already we have internship season. However, the rest of the course is great. Fests like Alcheringa, Techniche, Spirit, Prayatna, Spic Macay, etc., are conducted on campus and have almost 7000+ students from all Ph.D., M.Tech, B.Teach, and M.A. Campus connectivity is a bit weak we have to cross the river to go to the city while surrounding is pollutionless. We have scholarships available for department toppers as well as students with good grades. If the family income is below 8 LPA then students are eligible for scholarships. We have a new SAC which is the hub of all technical and cultural clubs like robotics, movies, etc. Large sports ground is also available.

Gems of knowledge reside in the beauty of nature.

Placements: About 60% of students were placed in our course this year. The highest package was 51 LPA, the average was 16 LPA, and the lowest was 6 LPA. The top recruiting companies were Microsoft, Amazon, Flipkart, etc. Only about 20% of students from my course got internships. Students were placed in companies like Microsoft, Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, etc.

Infrastructure: All the classes and labs have Wi-Fi facilities. There are also AC facilities, and the cleanliness in classes and labs was very good. In the hostel, food was not that good, but average. Academic and sports facilities at the hostel were good. Medical facilities were also good, in case of emergency, an ambulance is always ready to move in.

Faculty: Our professors were highly qualified and knowledgeable. They clear the concepts in a very easy way and also address students' doubts and listen to them. Teaching quality was very good. However, the subjects that were given to us are not relevant; for example, we had to study engineering mechanics, data science, and modern physics courses, and I don't think these courses are relevant to us. The calculus course was very tough. The pass percentage was only 50%, and half of the class failed.

Other: I chose this course because, from childhood, I wanted to do both things related to medical science, but during school, I realized that I had to choose one. When gathering information about both fields, I found that the bioscience course in engineering encompasses both fields. My course academics were good, but I think they can improve aspects like placements and internships. Events and fests were amazing, as they helped us increase our social skills and also enjoy a lot.

Placements: Almost 90% of students got placed in our college. The highest salary package offered is 40 LPA. The salary package offered is 2 CPA.

Every student is offered an internship, and it is their choice to participate.

There are a total of 14 hostels on campus, catering to B.Tech, B.Des, and PG students, as well as married scholars. Each hostel has its canteen and LAN ports in the rooms. The food served in the hostel is good. They provide medical facilities. The hospital is located on campus. Our campus has sports grounds and various other amenities.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful. They are always available to clear any doubts or issues you may encounter. They cover all aspects of your course, from theory to practical applications, which prepares students for the workforce. Passing semesters is not difficult if you consistently keep up with your studies. Students should score a 5 CGPA to pass the exams.

Other: I opted for this course because of my interest in the research field. They are working for an IT company. The best part about the course is that you can work under your seniors and professors in the field. There are many events and fests held across the year. The cultural fest is Alcheringa and the technical fest is Techniche. Many sports events are held like inter IIT and hostel competitions. It is the most beautiful campus in India. You can join many other activities which are organised by the student activity club.
