My sister opted for Robotics and AI from IIT Guwahati although she was in the CS department during her Bachelor's. She gave me plenty of reasons as to why one should prefer this over other institutes and specializations. She was impressed by the course content. First Semester There are 2 core subjects – Fundamental of Robotics, and Artificial Intelligence, and 2 electives- Computer Science Math, and Deep Learning. Basically, the first semester has the maximum number of Computer Science courses. There are 2 labs; Robotics lab and Python lab that mainly have coding. You can also choose NLP or Speech Processing for which you will get one course project each that can be used to operate your CV. Semester 2 There are 2 core subjects namely Robot Vision and Machine Learning and 3 electives. You will get 4 course projects for placement CV from here. You can also choose Introduction to Data Science, Soft Computing, Numerical Analysis, and Optimization Methods. Students that do not come from CS backgrounds may find it difficult to cope with the strictly CS-inclined courses of this program. MTP(Final Year project) My sister's MTP was related to Computer Vision/Image Processing/ CNN deep neural network, titled: ”Underwater Object Detection and Recolonization”. Irrespective of your background, you will have to work on these topics. Internships The Centre allows internships for 2-4 months whereas the CSE department of IIT Guwahati does not allow for internships. Companies coming for CSE and DS also allow the students of Robotics to sit for data science profiles in training. Many even receive PPOs. Placements For placement, all companies coming for CSE and DS allow Robotics students to sit for SDE and DS roles. There isn’t any language barrier and you can choose any from Python, java, or C++. Despite worsening market conditions throughout the world, the Robotics and AI branch of IIT Guwahati managed to get 100% placements, with the average CTC standing at CTC 21 LPA and median at CTC 19 LPA. 2 International packages were also offered. The top recruiters included Rakuten Japan HSBC SLB(Schlumberger) HCL IBM Accenture These companies offer job profiles like SDE, Data Science, AI/ML, etc
