Course Curriculum Overview

The course curriculum directed our focus on research from the beginning. We used labs frequently to work on our projects and journal completion. But it was only during that specific time, otherwise it wasn't so hectic.

Placement Experience

3.5

The Placement Cell would conduct different trainings all round the year for our professional development. Reputed companies like Reliance Jio, Tata Consultancy Services, HDFC recruited a good percentage of participating students.

Fee Structure And Facilities

I believe that the fee structure was feasible for a greater percentage of us. The total fees at the end of three years was ?40,000, which is only a year's fees in some colleges. This amount also included addmission fee and examination fee.

Campus Life

There was a huge ground where we, with our friends, and joined by teachers, would play various sports. Computer labs were a means of fun and enjoyment, but only when we didn't have any research work for projects.

Admission

Getting admission here wasn't so tough as I thought it would be. I just had to apply, and since my 10+2 score was good enough, I got admitted into B.Sc. programme. Economics was my first choice of specialization, and I stood by it.

Faculty

4.5

The faculty members made it feel like we were studying at home, since they cared a lot for us. It was a good feeling getting to learn here by such qualified professors who had many years' experience and who always supported us.

A review of NEHU, Shillong, from a 1st Year BTech Student

Likes

The environment is extremely beautiful (naturally)
Climate is the best i can think of; always cool, but never too cold)
Some teachers are very nice and genuinely interested to help you grow

Dislikes

Internships are extremely low; the few ones who come are not good
Placement rate is very bad, and average package is extremely bad too
Lot of corruption; missuse of funds everywhere, affecting the places where actual development is needed

Course Curriculum Overview:

This course might be one of the best courses in yhr University, if not the best. Placement rate, comparative to other courses, is the highest as of what I know. The curriculum dhould be improved. Lot of unnecessary subjects, that too with a lot of credits. The important subjects are just taught at the basic level, which should be way higher. The exam frequency and timings are good. But they are way too easy.

Likes

classes are always held on time with a punctual routine
teachers are strict and sincere and provide materials
food of the canteen is very delicious of it's kind

Dislikes

due to the non-availability of co-ed since it's an all girls college
canteen's food can add a variety of other delicacies
inclusivity of every gender being a all girls college

Course Curriculum Overview:

i've always had a passion for literature and it's musings so i guess english has always been close to home and my intellect. The curriculum makes me well known to the real world. There aren't any necessary improvements as per my perspective. The level of difficulty is moderate except it prepares every student to get out of one's comfort zone

I dislike people who have rude way of talking and those who are biased and those who treat people like favoritism

Course Curriculum Overview:

I would like to rate the course that I'm taking a 9/20. I choose this course because I'm interested in doing researching and stuffs and also to help the people to stand up for themselves since I lived in a village where there's somewhat many people who can't stand up for themselves and is afraid to stand to

My review on my college

I applied for other colleges such as Shillong Commerce and St Anthony's College and it was confirmed that I will get admission in Shillong Commerce as long as I paid the fees as for St Anthony's College it was not confirmed.I chose Shillong College instead of the other two because I was sure that I was going to get the admission bin this college and it is also cheaper as compared to the others as it is a government college. I got in one of the college but the other it was not confirmed.The admission is mostly online along with the fees.The students are eligible for this college if they got a 45% or above .There are no exam required for students and the admission went quite smoothly....Read More
