Good atmosphere in Gauhati University.

Placements: The institution offers a range of courses starting from Rs. 1400 to Rs. 7500 based on the income criteria of the students' families. The number of placements is low because the institution provides a low grade point.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure at this university is very good, with a wide range of facilities, including laboratories, libraries, and machinery. Almost every department has its own laboratory and conference hall, and our department even has a grand seminar hall that hosts valuable workshops.

Faculty: The curriculum needs to be updated to reflect current challenges and issues. While the exams are not that difficult, they are lengthy and rigid. The old, rigid curriculum should be replaced with a flexible schedule that can accommodate a wider range of students.

Other: Overall good experience provides many more insightful opportunities which includes fellowships, scholarships, collaborative projects, etc.
