Ambient atmosphere, serene environment, and clean surroundings.
Placements: Every year many esteemed companies visit this campus for recruitment. The placement and training cell of this college is very active and invites new companies every year. The highest package of last year was about Rs. 6 LPA, and the average package was Rs. 4 LPA.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities provided by the hostel are good. The campus of the hostel is very secure and safe. Accommodation in the hostel is based on a first come first served basis. There are separate hostels for both boys and girls. Hostel provides many facilities like free internet facility, 24 hour water supply, hot water facility, refrigerator, washing machines, dispensary, etc. The hostel appoints a warden who takes care of all the students and looks over all the amenities.
Faculty: The course curriculum is very relevant and easy to comprehend. Teachers use and provide various study materials which thus makes it pretty easy for self-study. We have 4 internals (assessments) held (namely CA1, CA2, CA3, and CA4) each semester along with the end-semester exams.

Teachers are friendly and helpful. They try at their best level.
Placements: The placement drive began for students in their second year of college. Companies like HDFC, Tata, Flipkart etc., came to our college. Around 5-10% of students got placed every year. After completing my degree, I planned to go into the research field by cracking the CSIR NET exam.
Infrastructure: I lived in a two-seater bedroom, so we had two beds, a fan, three switches, curtains, and a two-story cupboard. As mentioned, the hostel fee was Rs. 7,350 per month and Rs. 80,000 per year, while the hostel admission fee was Rs. 25,000 in total. The menu quality, out of 10, I would give a 4/10 as they didn’t deserve more, and we had to wait in a long line.
Faculty: Overall, curriculum is good but sometimes I feel there are several topic that are not useful like parroting, which I don't feel beneficial. The practical scheduled in this curriculum is very helping and many trips are organised at industry which intimate us to learn more and apply in future jobs. There are total 2 unit tests followed by internal and external per semesters which are good to score more. Exams are moderately difficult.

Review of University of Science and Technology, Meghalaya.
Placements: Only 4 and 5th-semester students are eligible for placements but after having the eligibility fulfilled that is given by the companies and industries who are here to hire you. One more thing is not only money matters but place & goodwill mainly surrounding is such a big deal so feel free to ask anything after the interview and have consistency if you guys want Big Giant goals to be fulfilled then study for 1 day. The highest placement - 14.9 lakhs. There are many interesting internship opportunities available at the university I applied once and it was an amazing experience.
Infrastructure: The prime location of the college helps a student to find various accommodation options and one of these is the college hostel facility whose cost is 6,840 per student per year. In my opinion, the hostels are comfortable and safe. The learning was according to the rules and guidelines provided by UGC. The syllabus is very modern and we are given different labs as well as departmental and central library. We were also taken on industrial visits and for our practical, external comes from reputed universities of the region. Overall an all-around development for even a mediocre student.
Faculty: The college has very qualified and experienced teachers in the field of education. The teachers have always focused on teaching the student and they never miss the lecture. Workshops, seminars, guest lectures, and conferences are arranged by the teachers for the students so that students get a brief knowledge of the course and the world. The curriculum of this course revolves around all the major aspects of literature. The curriculum is wholesome and collected therefore, it provides a complete knowledge about the same. The examination structure too is well defined.

The faculty are good, and I'm happy to enjoy their lectures.
Placements: In VIT, students become eligible for placements from the seventh (7th) semester downwards. Many great companies like Amazon, Google, Microsoft come here and a total of 6000+ offers are made annually. The highest package is 80 Lacs, and the average goes around 9.95 Lacs.
Infrastructure: There are so many cultural organizations that take place in USTM, such as Kairos, which was held this year. Besides, they perform a DJ night every year sponsored by Red Bull. There is a gymnastics area where everyone is allowed to do their workouts. You can have your lunch in the amenity center inside the campus.
Faculty: VIT Vellore boasts a 1:15 student-to-faculty ratio, with approachable and highly qualified professors. Dr. R Ramanathan (CSE) is well liked for his clear teaching of complex topics. Exams are moderate, with a continuous assessment pattern. Digital assignments and quizzes are also conducted on a regular basis.

My review of this college.
Placements: Only 4th and 5th semester students are eligible for placements but after having the eligibility fulfilled that is given by the companies and industries who are here for hiring students. One more thing is not only money matters but place and goodwill mainly surrounding is such a big deal so feel free to ask anything after the interview and have consistency if students want big giants goals to be fulfilled rather than study for 1 day. The highest package is 14.9 LPA. We can give our innovative ideas and work on that.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities provided by the hostel are good. The campus of the hostel is very secure and safe. Accommodation in the hostel is based on a first come first served basis. There are separate hostels for both boys and girls. The hostel provides many facilities like a free internet facility, 24-hour water supply, hot water facility, refrigerator, washing machines, dispensary, etc.
Faculty: Faculty members of this college are good. They are very intelligent and experienced. The teaching skill is different and unique. Faculty members know the best way to teach students and the hardest topics in the easiest way. All teachers are the best in their course. The total duration of the course is 2 years in which there are 4 semesters. Each semester has 5 subjects for which there are 4 credits making the total credit for each semester 20. There are electives and practical work in the third and fourth semesters. The course curriculum is good. Faculty members are highly qualified and well-trained. The teaching methods are precisely achieved.
