USTM Meghalaya is the best college.
Placements: College does not give many jobs because the demand for sociology in the industry is low. Students go for different careers: some work with the government for policy-making, some become teachers, counselors, and some do social research. If you get a job in the government, working hours and stress are less, and we get a good reputation in society with a good salary of 22 to 25 thousand. Some private firms offer a salary of 4.5 lakhs annual package. The college does good things by making us self-independent but does not play much of a role in securing jobs.
Infrastructure: University campus is very beautiful and green, with mostly pink and yellow flowers. The college is located in a hilly area. The sports ground is developing, but for now, there is no sports ground for playing. Our annual event, Managemia, is the best, featuring many sports like arm wrestling and weight lifting competitions. The classrooms are ICT-enabled digital classrooms. From the library, we can take books without any rent or charges. Hostel facilities are not up to the mark, though the rooms are clean with 24-hour electricity and free Wi-Fi (just for show). The main issue is the food in USTM hostel management. We have complained many times, but no action has been taken..
Faculty: Teachers of USTM are very friendly and take regular doubt sessions. The facilities are managed by students from this college who are old students themselves. The course is good, and the admission fee is 45k. We have subjects like Principles of Sociology, Sociology of North East India, Sociology of Education, Sociology of Gender, etc. We have 4 semesters: 5 subjects in the 1st semester, 5 compulsory subjects in the 2nd semester, and electives in the 3rd and 4th semesters. The exams are not very difficult, with easy written exams, but practicals are only for the 2nd year; there are no practicals for the 1st year.

So, you will get a mix of both aspects with a strong inclination towards practical application to prepare you for a fulfilling career journey ahead.
