First of all, I want to say that USTM is the best private university.
Placements: World College of Technology and Management organizes a mega fob fair every year. More than 100 companies come to the college to hire better students based on their skills and knowledge. Every year, more than 50 students get the highest package of around 8 LPA - 10 LPA. This college provides more than 10 internships. Tech companies also come to the college every year like Amazon, Tech Mahindra, IBM, etc. The majority of companies provide paid internships, but some companies provide unpaid internships.
Infrastructure: There are many festivals here like Bihu, Durga Puja, Saraswati Puja, Christmas, and everything. There are so many books in the central library. Whatever we need, we can find out that book. The room facilities are good. There are 3 beds in one room. Rooms are big and comfortable for 3 students. The meal is good. Every day morning, they give us fried rice, puri shabji, khichri, egg, chapati, etc. For lunch, dal and bhaji with any chutney are provided. For dinner, chapati, chicken, paneer, fish, egg curry, etc., are served. The hostel is present on the university campus.
Faculty: All faculty members in this college are very good in their respective fields. They have strong subject knowledge and teaching experience. Faculty encourage students to think critically and creatively. All faculty members are supportive of both academic and career development.

The most amazing part of USTM is the faculty members; they are so lenient and free.
Placements: You have to look for the companies for internships by yourself. Or you can choose a short new research project to work upon in your last semester, and you can even publish your work in some good journals. Also, you can learn a new software to enhance your profile.
Infrastructure: The overall campus experience in USTM is beautiful. The campus is very big with huge, beautiful buildings and infrastructure. We have a gym, pond, numerous parks, and a huge amenity center. It has the Northeast's largest auditorium and a library with over 80,000 books; every department has its own library. The football grounds are not good; they are the worst and getting worse every year. The ground is only meant for parking university buses and other things. Besides, the university doesn't allow female students to use the gym or be on campus after 5:00 PM, not even in the canteen or library.
Faculty: The faculty in our college are truly supportive in all aspects of a student's life, allowing us to explore a lot and build friendly, healthy relationships. Thankfully, I got all my department staff as my favorites, and to honor that, it is Sujithra ma'am. Unlike my favorites, I actually ignore the physical education staff because of their partiality and mannerisms. There are 2 semester exams per year, which are quite easy to handle alongside cultural sports and other activities. Only 2% may not clear the exams. The curriculum is closely relevant to the course every year.
