My life at IIT Guwahati.
Placements: Almost 90% of the students are placed in the college. The highest package can be around 60 to 75 LPA, the average package is about 25 to 30 LPA, and the lowest would be about 7 to 8 LPA. The top recruiting companies of my course would be ONGC in core or else, and tech companies like Microsoft or some point companies. Many persons also get internships.
Infrastructure: The fully air-conditioned library and very good library facilities are available. The hostel has very good rooms, and the food of the hostel is also very good. Different avenues are there, and I really like the food. There is some problem in Wi-Fi and land cables in some hostels, but it also gets sorted once we complain.
Faculty: Semester exams are a bit tough, and the curriculum is a bit hectic. After Delhi and Kanpur, the hectic curriculum is of IIT Guwahati only. Otherwise, from the 2nd year, the chemical engineering branch is a bit tougher with respect to the first year, and the internal exams are a bit tough.

Amazing college life here at IIT Guwahati - worth the hype.
Placements: Being one of the top 7 IITs, it maintains its reputation of amazing placements, with the average of the CSE branch going as high as 41 LPA. All top companies visiting the campus across India for major engineering, finance, consulting, and several other roles visit us .
Infrastructure: Amazing classrooms with AC, obviously. Hostel rooms are not the best that you expect, but it's the people living there which matter more, and you won't be disappointed in that matter. The food is good, surprisingly, and all other facilities— stationary canteen, juice centres— are there in each and every hostel.
Faculty: Curriculum is not that great, and most importantly, there isn't sufficient time to complete what we have been assigned in our courses, which makes understanding topics a bit difficult for everyone. It is not that difficult; it's just that you need to focus a bit in classes.

Strong academics, research, and a modern campus.

There is a lower percentage of students who get internships.
Infrastructure: The classrooms are air-conditioned, and the library is beautiful and also air-conditioned, where you can find all kinds of books. Wi-Fi is available in both the department and the library. The hostel mess food is very tasty, and there are no electricity cuts in the hostel. LAN is also available in the rooms, which are shared by two persons up to the second year, after which you get a single room.
Faculty: Professors in the Chemical Engineering department are very helpful and friendly. They are easy to access, qualified, knowledgeable, and teach very well. The course curriculum is relevant, explaining the working principles of the industry and its constituents.
