Master of Library and Information Science (M.Lib.I.Sc.) - Batch of 2020

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money
Overall best University for Master of Library and Information Science Course.
Placements: In our college, almost 85% of the students were placed in our course. The minimum salary offered was 2 LPA and the average salary offered was 10 LPA. Top recruiting companies are UNESCO, WHO, The World Bank, etc. 80% of students get internship opportunities. The top roles offered are Information Architect and Archivist.
Infrastructure: There are five labs for various subjects. It is the best university and offers a separate library for departments with Wi-Fi. Students have access to the library as well. There are high-tech classrooms with cutting-edge teaching systems available. The best playgrounds are available there. It offers internships and field trips.
Faculty: Although the teaching personnel is good and knowledgeable, it is not being used to its full potential. A strong curriculum is both practically sound and useful for learning a lot about the topic. It would have been possible to conduct many of the practical classes more effectively, which would have resulted in more knowledge. Exams for the semester are simple, and 89% of students pass.

Bachelor of Commerce (B.Com.) - Batch of 2024

Review of St. Anthony's College, Shillong.
Placements: I'd say out of 300 students, only 20 will get placed in campus recruitment since it's voluntary, not mandatory. The highest package offered was 10 LPA, and the lowest was 2.5 LPA. Top recruiting companies are HDFC, Canara Bank, and Teach For India. Only 3% got internships from our course on Internshala. The top roles offered in our course are clerk positions.
Infrastructure: We have a Wi-Fi facility, but we can't use it since we are not allowed to use phones within the campus. The food and canteen are good; we have three canteens, of which two are student-friendly. In the hostel, we have a Wi-Fi facility, and the food is really good. We get to eat meat three times a week, which includes chicken, fish, and chicken again.
Faculty: The teachers are well-qualified, but some dedicate their time to teaching us, while others just teach for the sake of it. The course does not adequately prepare one for the industry. Semester exams are quite challenging, and the pass percentage is around 80%, but we can still reappear next year if we can't clear our papers.
Other: I chose B.Com. because I wanted to learn more about finance and commerce. To improve the course, I'll suggest that there should be more subjects to choose from. Events, festivals, and campus crowds are quite good at this college, and scholarships are given to the majority.

Overall, the best college for the MCA Course.
Placements: After the 5th semester, if you have a CGPA above 7, you are eligible. Accenture, McAfee, Microsoft, and many other companies, numbering over 600, attend the university for placements. The highest package in the university is 45 LPA at Facebook. The average is 25 LPA. 95% of students were placed. I got a place at MediaCom and continue to work there. The highest-level roles are financial manager and analyst.
Infrastructure: With practically everything maintained and scared for, there is nothing wrong with the college's layout. Classrooms and labs are also first-rate. The college has two basketball courts, one volleyball court, and two cafeterias. The fisheries department has one storage tank and a 200-capacity auditorium.
Faculty: The faculty consists of brilliant intellectuals from diverse backgrounds. Everyone supported the students not only academically but also in extracurricular activities and guided them in their professional development decisions. The curriculum was highly relevant to the requirements of the industry. Nevertheless, the college has an excellent faculty. Semester exams are easy, and the pass rate is 78%.
