A life in NEHU. A great college life but dissatisfied with placements.
Placements: NEHU has a common placement cell for all the departments. There are different placement opportunities. One can openly apply according to the Nehru placement cell website. The placements are quite good for the B.Tech department but for biotechnology, the placement opportunities are quite limited.
Infrastructure: The faculty members are quite good at NEHU, and Wi-Fi is provided to students. Different classroom clusters are allotted according to the department. The library is fully functional and all types of books are available for the students. A student can access the library and borrow 3 books at one time. The hostel is provided to students and the faculty members are good in the hostel too. There are many different canteens available on campus.
Faculty: The teachers are very good in the biotechnology department. They are all well-qualified and knowledgeable. The current course is according to the new NEP course and it is really according to the new opportunities that are emerging. The semester is not that tough to pass as internals are being conducted, whose marks are also being added to the final marks.
Other: Biotechnology is an emerging course and an interesting course. But in NEHU, the exposure is quite limited, but still, the teachers try there best to expose students to all possible opportunities. University fests are held every year, during which games, DJ night and different theme parties are done. Your college life will be cherished at NEHU's beautiful and calming campus.
