Review of IIT Guwahati's beauty in 2026.
Placements: Placements here are average. Many companies come here as it's a tier-one college. The other side is that the number of companies visiting the college is slightly decreasing due to the recession and AI evolution. Otherwise, placements here are good in tech as well as in non-tech roles.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is old here, but new hostels are also available. Since Guwahati is an earthquake-prone area, many buildings have cracks in them. One hostel got vacated due to that, so buildings here are quite old. New buildings are under construction, and many have been built too.
Faculty: Faculty members and course curriculum are excellent here, as IIT Guwahati is known for its research. The course curriculum gets changed to align with the modern needs of companies. Semester exams are kind of tough here to maintain the standard of exams.

B.Tech. in Energy Engineering - Batch of 2029

4.0Placements4.0Infrastructure4.0Faculty4.0Crowd & Campus Life5.0Value for Money
Really beautiful campus- IITG.
Placements: A batch of 17 students graduated in 2026. This was the first batch of energy engineering to pass out from IITG. I have heard placements of a few of them. I'm expecting around 10-12 students to get placed. The highest package might be around 40 LPA, and the average might be 15 LPA.
Infrastructure: Hostel facilities are poor, definitely below average. The girls' hostel is slightly better. The library and academic blocks are maintained well in our college. It has good research facilities. Mess is also good for the price we pay. It's very cheap. The campus also has a 24/7 hospital. They provide us with medical insurance, too. Medicine is free up to 2 LPA.
Faculty: The difficulty of the course and its exams depends mainly on the professor. Some of them are very strict, some are lenient. The curriculum is relevant. First-year courses are mostly common. From the second year onwards, the courses related to your branch will be taught. The pass percentage is normally high.

College Life at India's Most Beautiful Campus.
Placements: Placements at IIT Guwahati are excellent, especially in the tech field, with high placement rates and strong average packages, generally 30 LPA. Top companies regularly visit the campus. After completing the course, if I do not get placed on campus, which is hardly possible, I'll look for other off-campus placements.
Infrastructure: At the IIT Guwahati campus, life is vibrant with active clubs and major fests like Alcheringa and Techniche. Social life is so strong through hostel interactions, and infrastructure is modern and well - equipped. At IIT Guwahati, nightlife is moderate and mostly campus-based. Students stay active late with hostel hangout and night canteens, gaming, group studies, etc. However, outside options are limited due to the remote location, so it's not like city nightlife in metro cities. 
Faculty: The faculty-to-student ratio is 1:12 - 1:15, with overall faculty interaction as decent, with many professors available for any kind of help. The institute has highly qualified faculty, especially in the teaching field. Each semester includes mid-term exams, end-term exams, with quizzes and assignments, and the difficulty range from moderate to high, but can be managed through consistency. 
Other: I chose IIT Guwahati because of a strong IIT brand, excellent placements, and comparatively lower fees. Compared to other IIT's, it provided a good campus experience and less academic pressure. Compared to other NIT's, private colleges, IIT Guwahati stands out in every field. If one couldn't make it to the IITs, it's because one is not eligible after the JEE Advanced rank, as competition is very intense. The admission process involves JEE Advanced after qualifying JEE Main, followed by centralized counseling through JoSAA.

Faculty: Teachers were helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality of our faculty members was project-oriented. The course curriculum was relevant. Students became career-oriented and were ready for industrial jobs. The semester examination was moderate.

You have to qualify CSIR NET exam.
Placements: Placements are good in the institute. If you want a job, then you will definitely get it without any doubt. If you want an internship, then you will get it too. You would also get to go to a foreign conference during your stay at IIT. Students are placed in different pharmaceutical industries, chemical industries, or in government or private institutions as lecturers.
Infrastructure: Canteen run from 9 AM to 3 AM (Each hostel has a canteen). The library runs 24/7 (Each hostel has a library, and we also have a central library). There is no restriction to roam inside the campus at all times. The sports facilities are damn good. There are grounds and courts for every sport and game. There is much encouragement. We have quite a good number of competitions, like inter IIT. The classroom has every facility, projectors (2), a blackboard, and good, comfortable chairs to sit. The hostel is good. Mess food is average.
Faculty: The course curriculum is awesome here. There are many internal and external assessments. You would learn a lot after getting admission to IIT. They also train students for practical skills for an overall assessment. I don't know other departments, but the research facilities are good in the Chemistry department. They are also getting good publications. In my view, research facilities here are the best in comparison to other IIT's. The total number of professors is around 30 or more in the department. The average age of professors is 40, and they are highly qualified professionals. Most if they did their Ph.D. from foreign universities.

Strong academics, good placements, and a peaceful campus life at IIT Guwahati.
Placements: The overall placement percent is 62 percent and for B.Tech in mathematics and computing it is more than 90 percent. The average package is approximately 19 LPA-22 LPA, the minimum is around 6 LPA-9 LPA, and the maximum is nearly 90 LPA. Top roles are software development engineer, data analyst, and quantitative analyst. Top recruiters include Google, Microsoft, JPMC, Flipkart, and Adobe. Approximately 70 percent of students secured internships.
Infrastructure: Classes are okay and have a good Wi-Fi facility. There is a central library and most hostels have their own library and reading rooms which can be used to study. Hostel rooms are okay, but they might get cramped UPAT times. Mess food is okay but thankfully there are many canteens and a lot of other food outlets. There is a hospital inside the campus and there are also two gyms.
Faculty: The teachers are very well qualified, and the teaching quality is generally good. Semester exams are not that hard and are moderate and one can mostly score good marks if you listen to the classes. The semester exams are moderate, and people mostly pass and the ones who don't are given a chance to take a supplementary exam.
Other: I chose this course because it is a blend of both mathematics and computing. The course structure involves subjects from both departments and hence provides various career options. The fests are great and there is a lot to learn. The overall environment of the campus during fests like Techniche and Alcheringa is quite different and there is a festive environment.
