Overall it is good

College Infrastructure

The college infrastructure is quite nice, the buildings and academic blocks are extremely pleasant. The overall ambiance of the campus is also very serene and peaceful. The laboratories are also very nice.

All in all, I had an enlightening and memorable experience.

Verified Review

College Infrastructure

The infrastructure of the Institution is more or less functions on satisfactory grounds. There is adequate number of labs and facilities for research work as well. The Library especially has an impressive collection of books and materials. If I have any gripes with the infrastructure, it would most likely be with that the campus needs more street lamps than is already placed and perhaps a faster WiFi connection for students. Otherwise, the campus is well-equipped with everything that is expected of a University. Guest houses are welcoming and comfortable for academics visiting from other universities as well. Students have ample space and opportunities to pursue their activities.

A life in the University is cool

Verified Review

College Infrastructure

Northeastern Hills University is a central university, and it has all the necessary infrastructures. It has clean classrooms and library, hostels and Wi-Fi connection in the campus. There are also projectors and sports facilities which are well used. Yes, the spaces are good, and food is hygienic.
