Review of our campus

Course Curriculum Overview:

Our Course is of CBCS patter which gives SGPA and CGPA. The course and syllabus is made very effectively. The curriculum consists of not only India but outside India too. Such as American Literature, African Literature, Victorian period, post colonialism etc The course oneust ne improve is the translation paper as this has been cancelled due to some inconvenience. But this paper should be included as it is one best and likely subject in English language and literature.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Guwahati university is one of the finest university in Assam. However, you might face difficulties when you need to coordinate with the administrative department. They are not polite, the way they should. Departments and Classes are very good. They complete their syllabus on time, but exam level is quite difficult during master's. You have to attend the classes, you can't miss those, they you can obtain a good mark,otherwise it is really difficult. If I mention about the syllabus, it is good but not upto date. It is a kind of old syllabus compare to other universities.

A review on Cotton University

Course Curriculum Overview:

Passion for understanding economic systems and their impact on society drove me to pursue a Master's in Economics. The MA in Economics, curriculum equips me with both practical and skill for real-world application and a solid foundation for advanced academic pursuits. Integrate real-world case studies and industry collaborations to enhance applications in MA in Economics.Update the curriculum to include emerging economic trends and digital tools for comprehensive skill development. Teaching methods should be based kn the syllabus. Teachers should use digital tools to present the ideas and make effective in teaching and learning method. The Main Entrance called CPGEE is held in the month of July(especially last week).One who wants to crack the exam, mustccomplete the UG syllabus of Cotton University. Exam is difficult based on my experience.
