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.

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.
