Placement: Average placements were there every year. Around 30% students got placements. Most of the students pursued higher education. Average package offered was 3-5 LPA. Top roles offered were Biochemist, chemist, etc.

It's a cool and unique place.

4.5

Overall: The campus stays cold all over the year. The nearby city is full of ingenious tribes who are matrilineal and they are mostly Christian and speak English. Transportation is not great 3/5 in that area. And we get 2 days off per week with a 2-month winter vacation. It is a claiming place. Over I like this university.

Placement: I did hear from the senior that NEHU has some programs for placements in our state NEHU has a good reputation so I don't worry much about placements .

Infrastructure: Feels like the campus is inside of a forest. The buildings are spacious, well ventilated our classroom has a heater. Every building is connected like a web for the first two months I kept discovering new paths to reach my classroom. The architect was great. And also the campus is clean.

Faculty: In our department, all the teachers are very knowledgeable and not so hard to talk with them if you have any questions. But for some reason, they don't give full marks no matter how good is your answer in not just our department but the whole NEHU

Hostel: Compared to my previous private university hotel NEHU hostel is different hostel food costs 2000 per 1 month currently. The food taste is ok but they serve food only 2 times and don't give lunch here in the morning they will give you rice and curry which you have to eat for breakfast and lunch considering the price it's reasonable but I would prefer lunch but also here in Shillong it pretty common to not serve lunch. Mobile networks are bad inside the hostel room maybe the wall to too thick outside 5G superfast. The room and the hostel environment are quite nice but there aren't any single rooms and more importantly bathroom is clean.
