It is an excellent college.

Placements: In our college, placements are below average. In the previous 2–3 years, there were no campus placements. This is due to the post-COVID scenarios. Top recruiting companies like OIL, ONGC, Cummins, etc., visit our campus. The average salary package offered is 2 LPA to 4 LPA.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is more than average. There is an old heritage building and all others are newly constructed buildings. There are two hostels, one for girls and one for boys. The condition of the laboratory and workshop is pretty decent but Wi-Fi is not available.

Faculty: Faculty members are all highly qualified, experienced, and supportive. The course syllabus was reviewed and revised in 2018 to ensure that students are industry-ready, but there is still work to be done on the course curriculum. The semester exams are average. The pass percentage is 90%.

Other: There are 7 branches of engineering in this institute. I show an interest in the mechanical branch. Every year, our college organises cultural festivals.

It is one of the best and first technical institutes of Assam i.e established in 1927.

Placements: Placements in our college is average if students compare it with the other government polytechnic institutes of Assam. Knowing from our seniors about placements, there are students who gets on-campus placements, but the percentage of students getting placed is less. The average salary offered ranges from Rs 10,000 per month - Rs 15,000 per month. The top recruiter is Cummins, and they are the ones that provides the highest package among the other companies.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is average in this college. It consists of a library with a reading room and a tons of books which can help with the courses. The classrooms are average and the laboratory are well-equipped with different machines and experiments to be done. But, it does not provide Wi-Fi campus. The boys hostel is that it has 3 floors and is at a distance of 1 km from this college, and a new girls hostel has been established on the campus itself. The hostels also does not have any Wi-Fi facility.

Faculty: Faculty members of our branch are extremely helpful and qualified. In our mechanical branch, there are 9 teachers who are highly qualified and knowledgeable. Most importantly they do not miss the classes at all, and they take regular classes. The curriculum is relevant even there are some topics which are outdated and are hardly used anymore. The exams are easy to pass but it is difficult to get almost full marks.

Other: I opted for this diploma in a mechanical engineering course, because of my interest in it. The best thing about this course is that the teachers are extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and highly qualified. Things that can be improved about the course is that there could be less assignments because some are just unnecessary. There could be more equipment for laboratories. An institute week is held every year where many competitions are organized such as football, cricket, rubik's cube, and many more. A fest is held at the end of the institute week.
