Comprehensive education with room for improvement.

Placements: The placement cell of the university is very new, only being formed last year. Very few students across all the departments were placed with average salaries being around 1-3 LPA and very few getting 8+ LPA. Various roles are offered during placements, with jobs being offered in banking sector, writing, management, etc.

This is how I look at my college!

Placements: 8-9%? The highest package may vary according to the course, students of the mass communication department have to pay for their education fully. Educational institutions? Very few students do internships here. People are less aware of the program. Education developed or decision was taken.

The Best Govt University in Assam is Cotton! Best place to explore the political Or cultural fields.

Placements: Unfortunately, the placement cell was inactive until 2023. I was in the Economics department. Psychology and a few other departments started getting internships (both paid and unpaid) from the 5th semester onwards. Most of the students from my batch got placed in HDFC Bank in the last semester.

It is a good university in Northeast India.

Placements: There are a number of placements in our college. Placements are offered by Oil, Careers 360, Sloka International School, and many more. Students of the college have secured very good positions. The package is also very good. From our course, only a few students have received placements.

The best college in Guwahati Assam as it provides the best campus, faculty and infrastructure.

Placements: My college name is Cotton University, and it has a very big campus, and the geography department is one of the best depths on campus. We have a total of 40 students in our batch. The highest package is about 80 to 90000 per month, and the lowest is about 40 to 50000 per month. About 30 to 40 percent of the students get placements in our college in companies like Microsoft, Java+, etc. Top roles are in library and Science, biotech, BCA, etc.

Great faculty, excellent culture, prominent infrastructure .

Placements: The placement cell of our university needs to run much more smoothly in order to encourage more students' employment and their welfare. Although the cell is actively working, the percentage of placements provided is supposed low. They need to be more efficient towards the goal.
