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.

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.

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.

I am satisfied with faculty members.

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.

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...

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.
