Great infrastructure and facilities, average faculty, and decent placements.
Placements: A limited number of students (30-40) secure on-campus placements. Many students opt for off-campus opportunities and internships. The salary packages are as follows, the highest package is around 7 LPA, the lowest package is around 3 LPA, and the average package is around 5 LPA. Recruiting companies like TCS, RBI, and others visit the campus.
Infrastructure: Our department is well-equipped with modern infrastructure to support both academic and research activities. The classrooms are spacious, air-conditioned, and equipped with smart boards and projectors to facilitate effective teaching. High-speed Wi-Fi is accessible across the department and campus, which greatly aids in research and online learning. The hostel infrastructure is decent and functional. Rooms are generally shared, with 2-3 students per room. Hygiene is maintained reasonably well, with regular cleaning of washrooms and common areas.

Good infrastructure and faculty members.
Placements: There are 60 students in our classroom. In M.A., there are no placements, as far as I know, while I am studying. No companies are there because my course does not offer corporate jobs; it’s like a literacy subject, so I can’t work with the companies, so that's it.
Infrastructure: There are good facility of labs, library and classrooms. Its is very clean and the classrooms are enough big to sit comfortable for the students to attend the daily lecture of the teacher for our course subject. There are Wi-Fi install for the students.
Faculty: The curriculum is very well structured, and the teachers guide us for the competitive exams also. Teachers are very helpful and knowledgeable for the course that I obtained, which is Assamese, and it covers all units, or you can say, important topics.

Satisfied with the faculty and infrastructure.
Placements: The placements provided are quite average. Talking about my course, economics, the placements are good enough with packages starting from Rs. 40,000. Although number of students getting placed was quite less as of last year. There is a placement cell in the university that takes care of it.
Infrastructure: The department has a library that is well-equipped, study-efficient and has free Wi-Fi. It has all the books required for this course. Classrooms too are well organized and fully maintained with blackboard, table, desks. It also has a sports complex which includes a badminton court, table tennis, carrom, and a gymnasium as well.
Faculty: Teachers are quite helpful, though they are aged and experienced. Teaching quality was above average. Teachers do provide notes, and most of the time, the class communication is enough for exams. The course curriculum is very relevant, making students industry-ready. Semester exams are on a level of moderate to difficult, and the passing CGPA in the last semester is about 8.9 CGPA.
Other: My course B.A. Hons, economics is a highly demanding course. The best thing about this course is that in addition to the theoretical portions, it also consists of a mathematical portion which makes it a perfect balance for people who cannot study theory too much. I think a little bit more access to multimedia content would make the course interesting rather than just class notes. The college hosts college week annually which consists of cultural activities and sports events. It also provides scholarship programs for students.

Placements: Approximately 40-50% of students were enrolled in our course, but the job profile was not directly relevant to our curriculum. The career options in our course included assistant professor, teacher, etc. The package offered to us was not good, it was around 4 LPA.
Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure available in our college were good. The college's library had a large collection of reference books. The Wi-Fi facility was not proper. The sports facilities in the college were limited. Basic medical facilities were available.

Review of Cotton University.
Placements: There is a placement cell which is only just for name. As far as I know, they don't provide any opportunities to students. No, the internship isn't provided here. I have a very warm experience in cotton if I take the count on personality development. Cotton is rich in literature study and cultural programs. Many students of cotton are in the post of very high rank in the civil service of Assam and in the ministry of Assam. I got only a scholarship for being an OBC student and no other stipend as a student.
Infrastructure: If I have to say about course teachers completed on time no worries about that they have the best teachers and to give efforts in building the students growth, academic wise also they are good. Biology faculty members are good. No, I am not residing in a hostel. The hostel rooms out here are on a sharing basis around 4 students share one big room. Yes, PGs are available here. The base feels being around Rs. 5000. Food is just below average. I have gathered this information from my friends since I have my own house here.
Faculty: They are efficient in their respective fields, but still, there are vacancies for professor posts around 150. Admission and examination branches should be more respectful of their work. The professors of the Physics department are very friendly and helpful in understanding the course. The syllabus of the course is well covered with various important topics, with a paper on English reading and writing skills, which is mandatory to pass each semester. The postgraduate course is 4 semesters. Each semester has 5 subject papers and an English paper.

I am satisfied with the faculty, course knowledge, campus, and one's shaping for a better future.
Placements: Placements are few on the campus. However, we get enough opportunities to showcase our talent in various events conducted on the campus throughout the year. Writing, painting, dancing, and every field can be showcased to achieve excellence and shine.
Infrastructure: Course facilities and infrastructure are adequate. It has adequate classrooms for every batch. Hostel food and canteen everything is available and are good. Sports and games are also very good. National games are conducted. Students have achieved a number of medals in sports.
Faculty: Faculty members are very friendly. They provide notes and are helpful. Courses give the right knowledge. Exams are also satisfactory and it sometimes may get harder but it shapes students. With the right amount of knowledge, everyone can score higher with time. Teachers provide great knowledge.
Other: Cotton University is one of the best universities in the state. I always wanted to be a part of the university. I chose this university because of its tremendous performance over the past years. Courses available at the university give us a lot of opportunities and provide the best education. The university campus is calm and full of nature. The university also gives us enough opportunities for scholarships. Events are organised every year and it's so fun to attend. It gives us the best memories of college life and it is amazing to be a part of it.

Q:   When was Cotton University established?
A: 

As a Higher Education institution, Cotton College has gone through several milestones from the initial phase of being under Calcutta University to the present when it is one of the full-fledged autonomous state universities of Assam. It is a Public State University established in 1901 by Sir Henry Stedman Cotton, the Chief Commissioner of the erstwhile British province of Assam.

It was established in 2017 by the provisions of an Act enacted by Assam Legislative Assembly to merge the Cotton College State University and Cotton College.
