IIT Guwahati (IITG) Reviews on Infrastructure, Campus, Placement, Facilities & Faculty

HEY THERE!!!

Both options - Chemical Engineering from IIT Guwahati and Mechanical Engineering from IIT Hyderabad are strong choices, but they differ in academic focus, campus culture, and placement outcomes.

IIT Guwahati Chemical Engineering:

• This IIT has been around longer
• Its graduates form a strong network leading to good job offers
• Life on campus tends to be more settled

IIT Hyderabad Mechanical Engineering:

• This IIT is newer but growing fast
• It has a modern campus and teaches in new ways
• Mechanical grads earn more on average (INR 18.7 LPA), but fewer get jobs (53.7%)

1. Go for IIT Hyderabad Mechanical if you like machines and want a new-age campus.
2. Pick IIT Guwahati Chemical if you want a time-tested IIT and enjoy studying chemicals.
3. You can't go wrong with either; just think about what you want to study and where you'd like to live!

There isn't a formal internal upgrade process at IIT Guwahati after all COAP rounds for changing branches.

COAP (Committee on Applied Sciences Programs) is a centralized allotment system ensuring transparency and fairness. Once you have accepted and frozen your seat, it's unlikely to be reopened for internal upgradation.

IIT Guwahati has a specific number of seats allocated for each program. Upgrading you to Geotechnical Engineering might take away a seat from someone who might have preferred it during COAP.

Contact the Department of Civil Engineering at IIT Guwahati. Explain your situation and inquire if there's any exceptional circumstance where an internal transfer might be possible (highly unlikely but worth a try).

While you can't switch branches now, keep these options in mind for the future After completing your B.Tech in Water Resources Engineering, you can pursue an M.Tech in Geotechnical Engineering at IIT Guwahati or other institutes. This would allow you to specialize in Geotechnical Engineering.
