Abstract:
This article aims to study the quality of education provided by the universities in Assam. This paper examines the quality and competence of faculties, the significance of the curriculum and on-campus training, and its relationship with the employability of recent graduates. The study has been conducted using the primary data collected from the students and faculties of the universities in Assam and analysed. The findings suggest faculties do not recognise the needs of students; they are neither giving personal attention nor interested in the academic pursuits of neither students nor treating them equally and politely. Further, the courses offered by the university do not offer practical orientation and the design of courses does not suit the personal and professional requirements of the students. The empirical findings of this study explain the reasons behind the unemployability of the graduates passing out from these institutions, which may be of relevance to policymakers.
