The infrastructure of our college is good.
Placements: Companies come here, and you can get a job in the government sector. Every semester, you have to study well.
Infrastructure: The college grounds are very attractive. Sports like cricket are played here. Annual tournaments are conducted in football. Half-yearly seminars are conducted. Many athletic games are played here. You will get a chance. We need attractive prizes and money.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful and teach us well. Classes are held on time. The classrooms have projectors. Many practical labs are available.

College life was average, not so charming, but not too bad that we couldn't study there.
Placements: There were placements, but we couldn't expect much from them (around 10%). If we studied very well, we had a chance to get a job through the college. However, a B.Sc. alone didn't guarantee a job, and we had to work hard to secure one. Many students from our batch were later established in big departments, but not in remote sensing or GIS. I did not have an internship, so I do not know much about them.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure was neither too good nor too bad. It was average, as expected from a college in this location, and being a government institution. The football grounds were good, and we could play there. The entire college had its network, and the Wi-Fi worked well. Classrooms were clean, though average. We could spend time in the library. There was no good hostel facility.
Faculty: Overall, teachers were helpful. They had vast knowledge, and their teaching was good. The course curriculum was not very relevant, but we could expect one or two excursions. Semester exams weren't easy or hard. It depended on teachers, the year, and other factors. Having less than 75% attendance was not a problem if we had good relations with teachers.
Other: I chose this course because I loved geography and had wanted to study a B.Sc. in geography for a long time. I also had an interest in photography, so I chose it. For enjoyment, I bunked many classes, which I shouldn't have done. Events were sometimes very big, like during our time, Keshab, a celebrity, came to perform, so it was quite good. We couldn't expect to build a strong network there. There was a little bit of political party influence, at least. If we applied for a scholarship, it was approved. The college did not organise any extracurricular activities.

It also focuses on providing insight into themes such as the human condition and ethics.
