    I like this college, and I wish the college should develop the infrastructure more.
    Placements: For ME course, there are no placements. Generally, students join ME course here to learn about field works and for extensive knowledge of the discipline. I wish our college should develop the infrastructure more to attract more companies.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is quite good. Our college provides good labs, conference room, huge canteen, market, etc. Our college also provides good computers. Playground facilities are quite good. Near the campus there are restaurants. The greenery of the campus is very good.
    Faculty: Teachers in our college are highly knowledgeable, good, kind and helpful. They actively organise seminars, etc., to boost the learning of students. The quality of education provided by them is very good. Teachers themselves attend a lot of seminars to keep them well aware of the developments taking place.
    Other: Our college comes under the Government of Assam, so the fee charged by the college is very less. I am very much interested in soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering, so I have chosen this course. I wish to gain as much knowledge I can. The campus is lush green and calm.

    I am satisfied with the course. University campus and hostel life are the best.
    Placements: Placements in our college are not much. Our course mostly priorities for future studies in the research field. The course emphasises more on the research sectors, and most of our alumni are now in top-ranking PhD programs in IITs. Our course is quite new. Hence many companies did no visit here for recruiting students.
    Infrastructure: Our hostels are hygienic, and indoors and bathrooms are cleaned every day. Food quality is also good, and they serve a wide variety of vegetables to us.
