Best college I have ever seen.
Placements: The field of mathematics and computing has some top companies visiting to hire the students which include Cognizant, Wipro, Crizil etc. But if you are really good at mathematics, I would suggest you to go for Ph.D. or further research as government is providing handsome scholarships. I really do not know about the internships. But if you want to do projects in some other big institute, you will get very good recommendations from the faculty members as they are very helpful regarding the same.
Infrastructure: Labs are awesome. The campus life is the best I have ever experienced. The atmosphere is surreal and the campus is so beautiful that sometimes I feel like it is god's own campus. You can really check out the video. Many competitions are held by the clubs of drama, dance, robotics, photography, football, yoga etc. You can chill by visiting the bank of Brahmaputra when you are bored with your studies. Hostels are very big and good.
Faculty: Exams are conducted frequently which are for your own good. They conduct quizzes (this is actually exam) frequently and in the end, all the marks will be added to your final exams score. Marking system includes relative marking. I would suggest you to not take the tests as hectic because by the end of the semester, you will realize that those exams really helped you gain knowledge about the subject.
Other: Everything is good, I know you won't believe me. Just visit the college once.

Yes for B.Tech and M.Tech students it's good.
Placements: As a student of M.Sc. Mathematics and Computing. I would say the placement scenario for B.Tech students is pretty good. For those who wanna take placement from an M.Sc degree, it's mandatory to have good coding skills as well as DBMS, as very few companies open for M.Sc.
Infrastructure: You will get Wi-Fi (IIT_GCONNECT) only in around classroom, library, lab, and auditorium hall. To get a network in the hostel, you will get a LAN connection, and you have to connect it with pc, and classrooms are well enough to have A. C., the quality of food is average. We will get non-veg at dinner twice per week.
Faculty: You will always get help from the teacher if you follow their advice accordingly. Yes, there is pretty much pressure on the exam, assignment, lab, etc. And you should have a good cpi to get eligible for placement, every year top 100 students in the final year get Institute Scholarship.
