Best place for PG in Management in Kottayam.

Placements: Big and well-known brands are invited by the college for the placement procedure. The placements and internships here are in a special domain, and each student was allowed to participate in placement and training sessions. Many firms like OYO, KPMG, Axis Bank, and Oppo were invited during my final year. The package depended on the company and role; KPMG offered a good package. Finance and branch-related roles are offered by firms.

Infrastructure: College has a great sports culture; they promote sports, have coaches, and different sports sections. We have spacious classrooms, a seminar hall, and a multistoried library. I stayed in the hostel and there, learned a lot about other students and made lifelong friends. The mess has a hygienic environment, and the rooms are spacious. Bodybuilding and physical health events are part of the annual fest.

Faculty: College alumni and teachers guide us in tough situations. Many alumni help students by giving their referrals. Teachers are really friendly; they don't have any ego problems. They provide study material. The course curriculum is affiliated with MG Kottayam University, which is really good. However, the rechecking of papers takes a lot of time, and declaring the results of rechecking is a lengthy process. More than 90 percent of our batch is passing.

Other: The college fees are nearly 3 lakhs for two years, excluding other expenses. It is really good compared to other colleges.

Other: Received visitor’s best university award in 2016 and will be conferred soon. Tezpur University has a good infrastructure in a campus full of green. Although placement scenario for B. Tech was not good in my time it's improving now. The academics here are worth praise. MBBT Dept. of Tezpur University is one of the best in the country. It's a growing university in the field of academics, research and extracurricular and one should opt if got a chance to pursue different courses here. B. Tech, MSc, int. MSc, M. Tech, MA, int.BA+B.Ed and a lot more courses available here. And for exam patterns, TU follows continuous evaluation and relative grading. One needs to appear for small exams every month in the four and a half month semester and need to do assignments. Relative grading helps one to get a good cgpa. Being a central university fees are also nominal and the money spent is well utilized. It's a complete residential university with 24x7 running water, electricity, and high-speed Wi-Fi connectivity in the whole campus and hostel. Playground with night facility, high-tech gym everything is there for every section of the student.
