Dislikes

The hostels here are not up to date. Water facilities sometimes disrupts, electricity is not 24x7

Course Curriculum Overview :

Agriculture is really an important factor for survival. Specifically India is a agri-based country. This course is really underrated but yet one of the most important course like medicine, engineering, nursing,etc. This made me choose this career option. The scope factor is really high. This degree helps you to apply in versatile positions.

Class Size : 200Course Fees : INR 120000 per year

Internships Opportunities :

RAWEP/TIWEP/ FWEP internship for 4th year students with a stipend of ?15k per month. Students have to stay at remotes areas, given tasks and work with farmers to ensure they can control any situation as a graduate.

Placement Experience :

Yes our students get placements directly from our campus. Companies like Amul, Federal Bank, Union bank of India, has come to our campus for direct placement. As per NIRF 2024, 87 students got placed from UG courses and 97 from PG courses. Starting salary from 66,000 to 70,000 in various jobs. My plan is to study masters and for that we have to prepare for JRF.

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

I opted for hostel therefore during admission I gave 23k for 1st semester. Then for 2nd semester I gave ?14k. Day scholars have to pay less as hostel fees are not included. Hostel fee for one semester is around 9k. The increase in fees is not much high per semester. If we take a rough idea then the whole course should complete around at 1.2 lakhs.

Campus Life :

As i mentioned earlier, the campus is my favourite thing in the university. The environment is lush green with scenic views. Uni fest (Aventine), College week, Sports week, competitions and various activities are often conducted. The library is equipped with various books and journals to study. Various clubs such as music, sports, etc are there. We have gym, swimming pool, badminton court, basketball court, football stadium, cycling club , etc.

Hostel Facilities :

Hostel are average. We have electricity but sometimes generators don't work so that creates a problem. Water in Jorhat is full of iron, so hairfall is a serious problem for girls. Still nowadays filtration is done to prevent as much possible. In week starting from monday we have veg item such as Rajma, Rice, Daal, custard and Tuesday we have fish, Wednesday we have paneer ,etc and at the end of every 15 days we are given Mess special like pulao, chicken, cold drinks, etc (like a mini party) PGs are available nearly, many of our friends stay there also rented rooms are available. Hostels are more affordable compared to PGs.

Hostel Fee : INR 9000 per year

Admission :

If you live in Assam and have a domicile you have to appear for CET entrance test. You can check about it in the website of AAU (aau.ac.in). The cutoff for general goes to 150+ rank for bsc, agri hons in Jorhat campus. Also you can apply by giving CUET-UG through ICAR. The admission process is offline, for counselling, you have to visit Jorhat campus. But for exam registration it is online. The reservation advantages are there for OBC, EWS, SC , ST, AAU employees quota, High fee, etc.

Faculty :

The faculty members here are highly professional and qualified. We are taught by assistant professors, associate professors, junior scientists and sometimes even the head of the department too. As an UG student i feel the faculty members are way to good in their teaching skills. The student to teacher is average according to me. We are given weekly counselling sessions by our teachers too (more precisely an advisory class) to discuss about the problems we are facing and anything that might make us question a thing. The teachers are overall really friendly and interactive. I as a girl feel very comfortable to approach them and ask any doubt that arises. Of course there are exceptions because not all people are equal.

A Honest Review by a Student

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course because it was a unique course. I got to learn something different. Each batch has a few students which helps each and every student to connect with the teachers and learn better. It was difficult at first for many of us to pass cause this entire term exam thing was new to us. We had to study everything in very less time.

Good Campus And facilities

Course Curriculum Overview:

Currently, the College of Horticulture is functioning within the University campus. But most likely to shift to Nalbari which is 50km away from Guwahati. There are 30 seats in each batch. The Teachers are good and helpful. Semester-wise exams are conducted and are average in terms of difficulty. Most students pass with good marks.

3.9 /5

One of the best Universities in Assam with good infrastructure and ample placement.

Placement Experience:

From 7th semester onwards students are eligible for placement in different agricultural companies including the banking sector also. Different banks like PNB, ICICI, SBI, HDFC, etc offers frequent placement options. The average package is around 3.5 lakhs per annum after graduation. But you can opt for a Master's degree for better placement options.

Placement Experience:

Students pursuing this degree usually prefer to go for higher studies. And I plan to go for the same. But there are scopes of getting yourself placed in the State Seri-cultural Department and also in the Central with time and experience.
