The college is full of diversity with people coming from different states.

Placements: The placements are quite good here. Placement training is given to students who are qualified for placement. Different companies all over India come and recruit the best ones. They usually offer a huge amount of salary, and many students have already secured placements through this.

Infrastructure: The hostel facilities are the best. It has a mini football ground, a badminton court, a gym, and a volleyball and basketball court. It also has a table tennis room, foosball, snooker, and carrom board. The hostel seats are limited to around 200+ students. Regarding the mess, it’s not that good to be frank.

Faculty: I like the curriculum activities, such as the surprise tests conducted in the middle of class. Seminars are organized for each individual for career growth. They provide special breaks to prepare for exams. Class size is 60. The course fees is Rs. 56,500 per year.

Computer labs are very highly expensive.

Placements: Integrated MCA students become eligible for placements since the 9th semester. For B.Tech, it's 7th semester. Some of the companies that visited our college are SOTI, UST, Leopard Technologies, and Safran Digit. There are many other companies that we can apply to, but those drives are not conducted at our college, like Expression Technologies and G10X technologies. Our college is the only college in Kerala from which students are hired by Zafran Digit. I have gotten a placement at G10X Technologies Private Limited.

Infrastructure: Triple-sharing rooms with and without AC are available, 12 rooms per floor, providing a study table, an almirah, and all the basic things. Laundry is available and gives clothes after 3 days, house cleaning service has been topped for inside the room, no cleaning in the room until further notice, which is not good at all. Multiple complaints have been made to the concerned authorities, but still, it's been over a month now, and there's been no improvement at all.

Faculty: Course will not give complete real-world applications. Exam's difficulty level is between medium and hard. Timing for theory exam is 3 hours.

Other: Most important part for improvements is student and teacher relationship and the teaching methods. The way of interaction and rapport also has a little improvement.

North Eastern Hill University Review

Placements: Percentage of students placed was not that high, but as placements were conducted through CUET, so yes. No package since the university doesn’t provide them. No companies come because there are hardly any placement opportunities. Companies coming to the college is a once in a blue moon thing. Internships are done personally by the students, as in the law department. No roles as such, it is overrated.

Infrastructure: Buildings are of old architecture and no modern amenities are available. The buildings are weak and seepage is bad. Toilets are not up to the mark with no water most of the time. Classrooms are not in good condition. On rainy days, we suffer leakage from the terrace. Hostel experience is below average with the same problems. Food quality is bad, but the rooms are big enough.

Faculty: Faculty members are not that good; most of them don’t take classes. The research scholars take our classes. They are very lenient, with favouritism and discrimination. But overall, the behaviour is good. Yes, the core curriculum is relevant. The semester exams are easy to medium and sometimes tough, but marks are not given adequately.
