I found the college of my dreams.
Placements: There are 60 students placed in my course. Geography graduates can pursue diverse careers, including environment consulting, urban planning, cartography, GIS (geographic information systems) roles, and research in areas like climate change and sustainability.
Infrastructure: The college campus is very big and clean. There is a big playground in the college. There is a canteen and a stationary corner on the campus. It is also very clean. Free Wi-Fi is supplied to students in the library for academic purposes. Also, there is an auditorium on the college campus.
Faculty: B. Borooah College faculty is known for being highly qualified and experienced, with many teachers holding advanced degrees, and some serving as recognized guides for PhDs under Gauhati University. They are also dedicated to nurturing talent and encouraging critical thinking. Many teachers hold master's degrees, M.A., and M.Sc. Some have PhDs in their respective fields. Some faculty members have also pursued M.Phil degrees. Some teachers are NET (National Eligibility Test) and SLET (State Level Eligibility Test) qualified. The college website lists faculty members with their designations and qualifications.
Other: The best thing about a geography course is its ability to foster a broad understanding of the world, its diverse landscapes, and the complex interactions between humans and the environment, equipping students with valuable analytical and problem-solving skills. Also, many events and festivals are celebrated in our college.

Absolutely satisfied with the faculty.
Placements: There are 60 students placed in my course. Many roles are offered in our course, such as Geographer, positions in different oil fields, and more. 50% of students got internships from our college. Only the good students get selected for the course. That's all I want to say.
Infrastructure: The college infrastructure and facilities are good provided by the college to students. The college library is spacious. There is AC all over the library. The medical facilities, canteen, and mess are all very good and hygienic.
Faculty: All the teaching staff is highly qualified. They have a very good knowledge, and the quality of teaching is excellent. Teachers are really helpful and approachable with all students. They teach very well. The semester exams are a bit difficult, but 100% of students pass the semester exams.
Other: I chose a major in geography because I found it very interesting from a very early age. I want to learn more about the place I live on Earth, so I choose Geography as my subject.

Very much satisfied about the college because of the teaching staff.
Placements: Almost 60 students were placed in the course. The cut-off of the course is a bit high, so not many students get admission in it. There are many roles offered in my course. They are Climate change analyst, climatologist, emergency management specialist, and geomorphologist.
Infrastructure: The facilities offered by the college, Borooah, are really good. The building is really good, and the library is excellent. There is a good Wi-Fi facility in our college campus. There is a boys’ hostel under the college campus with very minimum facilities. There are 2 canteens in the college campus. The food price is really affordable for the students.
Faculty: The teachers are really good and friendly. They provide students with easy and helpful methods to learn. The semester exams are not so tough if you attend the college regularly and clear your doubts. And the course is really curriculum-relevant. Yes, it makes the students industry-ready.
Other: I was always interested in studying geography. The best thing about the course is that we can learn more about our Earth if we study geography.

In this college, there are language problems with teachers.
Placements: The placements are not like the technical colleges, it is not an IIT college it is a general degree college so there are no placements. In this college, no companies visit to hire students, but our course is very good.
Infrastructure: In this college, Wi-Fi is not enabled, and the infrastructure is not good. I would rate it 2 stars. Because of covid, gyms and other things are closed. The cleanliness is also not good. They should look after every corner of this college, and the rooms are also not good. Our college has a pond, it is also not clean plastic wrappers and waste are floating over it.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. But the main concern is the teachers think every student is of Assam and Assamese, but there are many students who come from other states so they do not understand Assamese so it is a very big drawback. The semester exams are easy if students study.
Other: Our course is done by limited students so it has more opportunities, and it is good for civil service exams. I wish the teachers speak maximum English. This college will not provide scholarships. Events and fests are not going properly because of covid.
