I am dissatisfied because of zero placement in 2019.
Placements: Almost 50% of students were placed in our course. The highest salary offered was 1.5 Lacs per month, and the lowest salary offered was 20,000 per month. Teach for India and KV are top recruiting companies visited the campus. Teaching role is offered in our course. The highest salary package offered in our course was 1.8 LPA to 2 LPA. 1% of the students got an internship from our course
Infrastructure: Infrastructure facilities like Classrooms, Blackboard, Projector, Labs, Wi-Fi, are available for our course. In our hostel facilities like the quality of food, medical facilities, sports and games are good enough.
Faculty: They were helpful, qualified and knowledgeable. The teaching quality was good. The course curriculum is relevant. It makes the students industry-ready. It makes the students good enough for research purpose, teaching ability and overall enlighten us with good knowledge.
Other: This course is very good and full of scope, that's I have chosen this course. The best thing about the course is that it enlightens us with all the new discoveries and inventions. The latest updates are missing, which is one of the main things I wish would be better to include in our course. Events, fest and extracurricular are conducted. Scholarships are also available.

Review of Assam University, Silchar.
Placements: There is no big placement hunt for Life Science Department, but most of our seniors were doing a job in well-reputed companies because life science department gives students the ability to compete with anyone. It is one of the best department in Assam University.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the department is good enough, and it has almost all the facilities. Though there are some things which students might find not good like electricity issues, water issues but the rest is good. The building is created in a well-organised manner. It has 3 floors, and all the classrooms and labs are well-maintained.
Faculty: All our teachers are very helpful and interactive. They don't restrict their teaching up to syllabus. They go out of syllabus and teach lots of things for exams like NET. The best part about faculty members is they mostly don't follow books, and they only consult research papers. Syllabus of the life science department is an updated one, and it helps students in any modern and competitive exam.
