This university is a boon.
Placements: I am not aware of it, probably the campus placement totally depends on the department head, and in my department, placements are not many. The top role offered in our course is assistant professor. 90% of students get internships from our course.
Infrastructure: Large classrooms with free Wi-Fi, available labs, and a big library. Above average quality, food is served in the hostel and college canteen at affordable prices. Available medical facilities. Sports and games are provided with water, free electrolytes, and snacks.
Faculty: Teaching quality is top-notch with experienced and smart teaching staff. The curriculum is relevant and makes students industry-ready. Odd semesters are a bit tougher than even semesters, though it depends on the departments and the difficulty level they set for the papers.
Other: I have always been fascinated by politics. The best thing about my course is that it gives me an overview of how politics emerges and the day-to-day political scenarios and developments made by the government. There are provisions for scholarships.

It has value for money and is a great college.
Placements: There are not many students in our department, but there are not so less. I cannot remember the highest or the lowest average package offered by my course, but it is around Rs. 5,000, I guess. UPSC or other competitive exams can be taken. Roles are various, it depends on us what we chose.
Infrastructure: There are very good facilities for the hostel and canteen. Classrooms are great, and the library is also very good. Wi-Fi connections are there, and there are also very good medical facilities with good enthusiasm for sports and games. Labs are also very good, and practicals are conducted from time to time.
Faculty: Teachers are quite good, very friendly, and very much knowledgeable. Their teaching quality is outstanding. Most of students are industry-ready after graduation. The pass percentage is above average, and the semester exams are quite difficult.

It is a good university in Northeast India.
Placements: There are a number of placements in our college. Placements are offered by Oil, Careers 360, Sloka International School, and many more. Students of the college have secured very good positions. The package is also very good. From our course, only a few students have received placements.
Infrastructure: Our department has a library for students and PhD scholars. Our course infrastructure is good, with 2-3 classrooms available. There are a total of 6 hostels (4 for boys and 2 for girls). The mess is good.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, kind, and qualified. Teaching quality is good. Course curriculum is relevant. Course is making students ready for their future. College holds two exams mid-term and end-term, with 30 and 70 marks respectively. Passing mark for mid-term is 9 and for end-term is 21.
Other: I chose this course because my aim is to join civil services and I think Political Science will help me a lot. Course can be improved with group discussions, presentations, and more. College organises different events related to academics, culture, and sports.
