Assam Engineering College Review by a 2nd year Electrical Engineering student

I have always wanted to study engineering and I got to pursue my dream in this college by getting here to study in the electrical branch. The curriculum prepares us to be industry-ready and prepares by giving the knowledge required to work in an industry. The areas for improvement in the course curriculum and teaching methods are to increase the practicals as it is a very important part to be a industry-ready person.

Currently, I am in 2nd year of Btech and as such we have not done any internships apart from a Social internship and I have heard that from the TPC(Training and Placement Cell) in our college various interships are offered in IIT's, Railway, IUCL, etc.

From 7th semester (4th year) students become eligible for campus placements Tata ,Tata motors ,Vedantu and IUCL are some of the companies that visited our college recently. The highest package in our college was 25lakhs per annum and the average package is 4.5lakhs per annum. 55-60% of students get placements every year. I am aiming for campus placements after getting the degree and also if not i will try for entrance exam such as Gate to pursue further studies.

The total yearly fees is about 20000 and all the other fees are included in it and for 4years it costs around 280000. The fees for all the different caste are same in our college. The college provides various scholarships such as poor fund scholarships and also there are NSP ST/SC scholarships,Ishanuday Scholarships and for girls there is Pragati scholarship.
