No, there is no job opportunities in our college, it definitely does help to get some internship but i never applied to any of them. But our department specifically conducts seminars where our alumnis lectures on their work and encourages current students to join them. I find it very useful and enjoyable most of the times.Our college at present dosent provide internship facility at present. But placement drives are good. Companies come every year are recruit a lot of students. Companies such as tata, infosis habe been recorded to recruit students.The college doesn't offer professional courses but only general courses and therefore it is hard to find a very good placement immediately after completing B.Sc. or B.A. However there is a functional placement cell in the college and some companies do come for requirement. No, it doesn't provide any internship.We don't have placement opportunities but have a wider scope to explore our desired jobs. We have had politicians, singers, artists, actors, as the Alma mater of our college. Students from our college have gone for higher studies and achieved great heights in life.There is no placement cell in the college. Most of the students can get placement on the basis of their capabilities and drive.Sometimes some companies come to hire students from our college. Students do internship from different reputed institution throughout the country such as IIT Guwahati.
The placements and job opportunities is not that good of our college. The companies which come over are local companies and do not have much exposure for the freshers.
