M.Tech. in Biotechnology - Batch of 2022

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

It is the topmost institute in India. This review doesn't need titles.

Placements: IITs attract top companies that offer lucrative job opportunities in many fields, with maximum salary packages between 5 crores per annum and a minimum of 35 lakhs per annum. Additionally, there are plenty of internship opportunities and many more chances to explore big industrial fields.

Infrastructure: Our college has an academic complex divided into departments. Our Biotech department facilities and infrastructure are really good, giving a positive vibe and looking good. There are about 12 hostels in this college. The mess food at my hostel is excellent, served three times a day. There is a separate hospital for students where all kinds of medicines are available free of charge.

Faculty: Just by listening carefully, tempting the exam, and acting accordingly, you can ensure that you are well-prepared and industry-ready. The quality level of semester exams should be moderate or difficult, as you know about IIT's questions. The key to success is hard work and keeping your curriculum relevant. The pass rate is also quite satisfactory.

Other: The biggest fests and events of IITs are hosted here. The environment of the campus gives you too much satisfaction.

Excellent college with top-tier facilities.

Placements: In our institute, placements were held in December. Within two days, more than 300 offers were received from big companies, including JPMC, Google, IBM, and Oracle, among others. The institute also received a total of 20 international offers from companies such as Uber, Microsoft, Accenture, Japan, etc. The jobs were being offered in diverse profiles, such as IT/software, analyst, finance, design, and management. The average CTC offered was around 17 LPA.

Infrastructure: The campus of IIT is great. IIT Guwahati is blessed with the most beautiful campus in our country. IIT Guwahati is among the most beautiful IIT campuses in India. Wi-Fi facilities are available in the college 24 hours a day, and canteens are also available with acceptable rates and quality of food. And about hostels, whenever we get admitted to IIT and go for your registration in college, you're allotted a hostel that costs you around 18000/- a month, which is quite affordable and offers a great campus life.

Faculty: We have the most experienced and qualified faculty members in the college. Faculty members have a very good nature and behavior among the students. Most of the faculty members are qualified as IItians, or most of them are qualified from other countries. Some of the faculty members also have their own active projects. There are a lot of things to learn from our faculty members. The course curriculum is in biological technology. Semester exams are difficult, and about 95% of students get passed in our college.

Other: I chose this course just because my interest lies in biology, and I was very keen to explore this field, so I applied for it.

Nice facilities and great teaching methods.

Placements: The placement opportunity is very good here. Many companies come for the placement and they give a decent average package. Flipkart, Amazon, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, HSBC, etc. companies came and they offered around a 15 LPA average package. Almost 85% of students get placement here.

Infrastructure: In the first year, you have to share your room with one or two people but from the next year on, you will be given a single room. Rooms are designed so that they are a perfect fit for a single person. Rooms have tubelight, fan, one table, chair, one closet, etc. There is no need to go for a PG; the college has sufficient room to accommodate everyone. Mess food is very tasty and they provide healthy food to us, cooked in a very hygienic way. The registration process is done at admission time.

Faculty: The goal of biotechnology is to produce drugs by using living organisms such as bacterial cells, mammalian cells, etc. that are placed in culture to produce substances with pharmacological activity, such as monoclonal antibodies for the treatment of tumors. Faculty members of my department are well educated and have very high practical knowledge and students are friendly. Most faculty members are associate professors. For B.Tech they conduct three cycle test and model exams for practical and theory before the university exams and for M.Tech, two CTS are conducted Ct1 consists of units 1-2 and Ct-2 for units 3,4,5, and model practical before the university. Course Fee: INR 67350 per year.

Review of IIT Guwahati - Indian Institute of Technology.

Placements: Employment after graduation was hard. You can grab a good salary package after completing masters. Internships were also offered in biotech companies or pharma companies. From the 5th semester onwards, we were eligible for campus placements. Around 75% of students got placed in biotech companies. Few students were also selected by Deloitte.

Infrastructure: Hostels were available on our campus but were not huge. The food served in the mess was good. They served food twice a day. Both vegetarian and non-vegetarian meals were available. Wi-Fi was also decent.

Faculty: Faculty members were good, and they guide us properly towards our goals. The teaching method was good. Semester exams were conducted after every 6 months. The difficulty level of exams was moderate. If students study properly then they can easily score good marks.

Other: I chose this course because it provided a broad spectrum that connects biology with technology. This field gives us a chance to come up with new ideas and become an entrepreneur.
