Review of IIT Guwahati - Indian Institute of Technology.

Placements: Around 70 percent of students from this course get placed. The highest package offered is 13 LPA, and the average package offered is 7 LPA. The lowest package offered is 4 LPA. Wipro is a big recruiter here. A lot of students who want to work at Microsoft or Google get internships first. About 75 percent of us get those, often for roles like biochemist lecturers.

Infrastructure: One of the coolest things about this university is how modern it feels. The library is stocked with books and magazines for our classes. The canteen is huge and has all kinds of food. Most people like the hostel. The food is pretty basic, but it's good enough. They follow rules.

Faculty: Faculty members are well-qualified, and some even are PhD holders from top places like IITs or colleges in other countries. The teaching is okay, and teachers help when we have doubts. However, some of the stuff we learn feels a bit old for jobs that are out there now. Exams range from medium-hard level. About 80-90 percent of the class students pass exams.
