Entrance Preview

I took the state entrance examination known as CEE(common entrance examination) . I scored 124.

Course Curriculum Overview

The course curriculum was the standard course that was offered by Gauhati University (one of the most reputed universities of the nation). But now I have learnt that the course has been changed to that offered by technical university.

Internships Opportunities

I did my internship in IOCL (Noonmati, Asaam) at the end of my 6th semester. Though it did not offer any stipends, but the learning experience was a decent one.

Placement Experience

3.5

We were the 4th batch of the college and although the placements were not upto our expectations, still a number of students got placed in companies like Shriram Transport, Wipro etc.

College Events

The annual college fest "Glitters" is held in the month of January. Its one of the biggest and best events of the region. From cultural shows to technical events.

Fee Structure And Facilities

On my time the total course fee was 300000 INR (for 4 years) which needed to be paid in installments half yearly. Now the fees has been slightly increased.

Fees and Financial Aid

The college, being a reputed one, education loans can be availed from a lot of banks(like SBI) to study in it. Though there were no such scholarships during my days, I am not aware if the college has introduced any such programs now.

Campus Life

The campus life is great. Those four years have been the best years of my life till date. Annual sports, cultural events, technical events. Everything is arranged in a grand manner. There is absolute intolerance for discrimination based on gender, ethnicity, race, religion, sexual orientation, politics and economic status. The management makes sure that each student is given his/her due based on the merit and nothing else.

Alumni/Alumna

There is an alumni association and an alumni meeting is being held on the first Sunday of every year. There are a lot of agendas planned which hopefully will bear sweet fruits soon.

Exam Structure

The course is based on semester exams. Also class test and mid term exams are held regularly. But its not that hectic. The labs are held regularly though they aren't hectic.

Since I am in civil dept so the civil dept is the most well maintained and beautiful dept of my college. The faculty members are more or less friendly and good.
Teachers are good and friendly. Specially in civil the seniors are also good and friendly.
In civil dept there are many events which take place as compared to other dept .

Dislikes

Only boys hostel is there but no girls hostel.
In civil dept the placement opportunities are not upto the mark but in other dept specially chemical placement is good even in mechanical too.
Campus can be made more beautiful although work is going on.

Course Curriculum Overview:

See I had the passion for civil since my 10th std. I am really happy about my course . Because there are many job opportunities in govt sector in Assam. I like the teachers of my dept but some are not that friendly . Maybe it depends upon their mood sometimes I don't know really . The civil course is practical it's enjoyable. I would have liked it more if it would had more placement opportunities on campus . Otherwise it's fine

The management cell of the college is also do grat jobs. But the main problem I have found is placement. According to the other colleges the placement of this college is not so good. If the college can give more placement then it will become a great college. Overall its a great college full of knowledge.
