The admission process was good. I had first given an entrance exam. On the basis of my examination i was selected. After the exam i some how manage to appear for the next process. Elegibilty was you need to pass the graduation exams. The application form i searched online. The examination pattern was lenthy i hope the college can minimise the same.
Location and it was affordable. The teaching staff was well qualified and the fee structure was very well balanced for a middle class like me. Also the university provides transportation and have other co curricular activities that was upto the mark.
The faculties are great well experiance and supportive they give academic support as well as personal support for the best of students and they give their best effort to prepare us for the competetive world outside
MBA is a post-graduate professional course that follows the semester system and has a duration of 2 years. Their course structure is very good and focuses on a lot of research and practicals. The days are generally very hectic and exams too are very tiring.
The college can do with some development in terms of infrastructure and student outreach. Political and Economic awareness needs to be established among the students. The college needs to work towards helping the students with more real-world issues.
The college needs to work in establishing itself in technological terms and try to establish a connection with other institutions so the students can interact and develop skills. Also the infrastructure can be improved.
The college environment is very supportive and the university life is engaging and interesting for the students. The amenities and infrastructure of the college are great and facilitates learning in many ways.
The course is designed as per the standards of an MBA program. We were given good exposure of basic principles of management studies alongside detailed studies of case themes. The exams are held in a semester-wise manner. Both theoritical and practical exams are held at the end of semester.
MGU Meghalaya offers various courses in many disciplines besides that the course curriculum is well designed and helps the students get relevant skills in their field of study. The BCA course is a 155 credit three-year course. Final semester-end exams and multiple self-assessment tests are to be given by students. Books and support material are also provided.
Wifi is lacking which is a minus point. But other than that, the quality of education that is provided in this university is great and also the dedication of the faculty members is an add on. Also, various events and activities keep the students alive and active. So ,overall, it's a good university.
