Gauhati University Guwahati Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

I had qualified GATE entrance in 2016 and score 398. Gauhati University is the oldest and best university in the entire north-east. Gauhati University has more than 30 departments and known for its quality education. It is located in the capital city of Assam and have a very beautiful campus. Railway Station and Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport is near by it. Its one of the best University of India i have visited in my life.

I was a part of this college for 5 years and I know this college well. This college should have an auditorium for conducting seminars and there should be College week so that the students can take part in various competitions. Moreover the library has insufficient books and most of them are outdated as new editions of those books are available in market. There are very limited books. Library doesn't have Manupatra, SSC online etc.and the computers are outdated. The administration is average they fail to respond well at times. The best thing about this college is that it secures 1st position in University results.

The wifi network is very weak. Need a strong wifi connection. Pure water facility, somehow, creates a big problem. Unlike these, all are found yo be very very good.

The college is excellent one the college management is quite strict and firm on the grounds. They are regularly inspected by higher authority and the Vice-chancellor.

I gave JEE examination and assam CEE examination. My entrance score JEE is27 and assam CEE is 102. Assam CEE is entrance for both medical and engineering. My score is for engineering.

College Management is average. They are not supportive and helpful sometimes. Otherwise it is good.

No bad remarks about the college everything just amazing in this college.

Firstly, we had to apply for respective departments which one wants to take an honours. Then ,cut off percent is taken out and students are given admission to that department as honours student.

Library is very limited and it opens at 9AM and remain opened till 5APM but very less no. of books, and no Online Library Access like Manupatra, Oxford digital Library, Jstor. etc..College Administration everywhere including prospectus mentioned that Campus is fully Wifi enabled but the wifi network is password protected, students are not allowed to access internet, but each student is charged Rs.2,500/- per year for Internet.Good Thing is that if a student does not attended even a single class in a academic calendar then he/she will be fined with Rs.1000/- and he/she become eligible to write University Examination, can't figure out what they will do after law degree.Very less Parking area.

Good:Environment: Being situated on the foot of a hill, it offers spectacular view. Fellow students: they really know the meaning of friendshipCommunication: the communications are excellent, complete with a library with internet connection and hi-tech computer lab.Some of the faculty: they are simply awesome. Bad:Management: management doesn't have any direct contact with students. Only the secretaries of the union represent the whole college who are also provided vague information, Rest of the faculty: they just simply suck. Newly employed teachers are not given training prior to coming to a class and they don't handle the class quite well.
