    Master of Science in Physics at Nagaland.
    Placements: Well, considering records of placements, it graphically changed over the years. But the training for placements was consistently given by the top trainers, which helped to enhance our knowledge with incredible efficiency. Most students got placed in core companies, with the highest pay being 15.4 LPA last year.
    Infrastructure: The campus area was hygienic, with all facilities looked at by students to pursue their courses. Student safety was a priority for the management over other activities. Transportation on the college campus was very good. All the necessary safety measures were initiated in the college
    Faculty: Academic excellence was superb, but teachers focused more on their teaching. A few students were disappointed with their teaching. Most teachers preferred to take classes using the SMART board and avoided using blackboards. Some of them simply read the textbooks and moved on.

    Quite an awesome academic boosting experience.
    Placements: Placement opportunities are available for students taking up engineering courses, the placement percentage might be 30-40% per batch although no placement opportunities are available for the Physics and Chemistry department as they get an opportunity to get appointed only in IT companies.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure is standard as any other standard institute of national importance although some of the departments are still underdeveloped. Hostels are provided for all and the mess is managed by a private management affiliated with the Institute. Food is also provided well, i.e., 4 meals a day for both veg and non-veg. The hostel facilities include fans, no AC, geysers, public bathrooms, and multiple toilets.
    Faculty: The teachers are well-qualified as they all come from a research-oriented institute of national importance. There is quite a diversity in faculty members from across the country and they teach according to national standards. The curriculum is well updated and the students are well prepared both theoretically and practically with the top-notch laboratories and equipment in the state of Nagaland. The difficulty of the semester depends on the particular teacher as they are also the ones setting the question paper for end-semester exams.
    Other: I chose to study my master's in Physics at the Institute. It was quite a journey, the atmosphere is always encouraging to pick up books and study, and we were constantly surrounded by research scholars who were our seniors. Apart from the academic hustle, the campus also organizes social gatherings for occasions and festivals, which include all the major religious and non-religious festivals of our country. I thought more attention was needed towards the non-engineering departments like Physics and Chemistry in terms of funding and placements.
