Assam University's CIL was set up in 2007 with the help of the funding received from UGC. The laboratory houses modern and sophisticated instruments like the Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS), Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS), and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) among others. CIL's main objective is to give instrumentation support to all the major Science departments of the University. However, the CIL also provides teaching support to the PG and IPP levels of the Science departments.

Since education is never limited to the four walls of the classroom, therefore games and sports have been an important centre of focus since the University's inception in 1994. The University organises an Annual Social Meet every year. During this meet, along with the cultural activities, indoor and outdoor sports are also held. Currently, the University is a member of the Inter-University Sports Board of India. So far, various teams have participated in Zonal and All-India University tournaments and have also brought various laurels.
