There is no scope for placements for our course, and as it is a course of the arts stream, so no companies visit our department for recruiting.

It is totally worth your money.

Placements: In our course, nearly 1-3% of students get placed. Multinational companies like HCL Technologies, Larsen & Turbo, etc., come almost every year for recruitment. The average package offered is 3 LPA. In recent years, the placement percentage has been continuously increasing.

Infrastructure: Basic facilities like Wi-Fi and drinking water are available 24X7. Our classrooms are very good. Labs are functional and they equipped with all the needed laboratory equipment. Hostel is in good condition. One of the best parts is the medical facilities. So all good.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful. Once you ask anything, they will respond very patiently and make you satisfied with their answers. Faculty members are highly qualified and knowledgeable. Semester examinations are not very difficult but also not easy.

B.A.(Hons.) in Geography - Batch of 2025

1Placements3Infrastructure3Faculty2Crowd & Campus Life3Value for Money

I am satisfied with my college but it depends on the student what they expect from the college.

Placements: There are no placements at this college. I think in science department and in BCA and B.Com departments have their placements something like 2.4 LPA but this is average. If you have your job experience, you can earn more salary but from college no good companies.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and buildings are good. Classrooms are good, and some classes have smart boards. Hostel buildings are good with proper beds and washrooms. Some of them are not good but some hostel buildings are good. There is no specific mess in the hostel.

Faculty: Teachers are very intelligent and they are very friendly. Every department has its best teachers, and the classes are regular. During the semester exams, teachers help their students as best as they can. Passing percentage is 35%. Sometimes the semester exam questions are too tough.

Other: The college is in my hometown, that's why I chose this college. Overall, everything is good. There are some annual fests, dance competitions, etc.

Bachelor of Computer Applications (BCA) - Batch of 2025

1Placements3Infrastructure4Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Very Bad Infrastructure for BCA Department.

Placements: Barely any company visits my college for placement. Last year, only TCS came to our college, and 10-12 students got placed. The annual average package you should expect when you get placed anyhow is about 2.5 LPA to 3.7 LPA. Students also got placed in some local companies or startups.

Infrastructure: For the BCA department, we have only one reading room, which is used for classes, and one computer lab. Our department arranges our classes in different departments, especially in the Mathematics department, as BCA in our college belongs to the Mathematics department. Our college has 2 hostels, but I recommend avoiding them, as the buildings are old, and students get very few facilities.

Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified, but they lack in delivering knowledge. The course curriculum is relevant as they have added Big Data and emerging technology in our syllabus. But the sad part is we do not get that environment to become industry-ready. As I have taken admission here just to be eligible for MCA, as I have planned to get into the best college for MCA, which will definitely help in landing a good job. Our college offers the worst infrastructure for our department, but other departments are well. We have a lack of placements too.

Other: I have chosen BCA as I am more interested in technology and computer-related things. Our college conducts different events from time to time.

B.A.(Hons.) in Political Science - Batch of 2022

1Placements3Infrastructure2Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Bihar National College: A Heritage

Placements: Being a student of Political Science Honors, one can pursue careers in civil services, law, political firms, lecturer roles, NGOs, and social work. The chances of placements are low because it is a traditional course, and there is also no chance for internships.

Infrastructure: It is a traditional course with classes available, and faculties are present every day in the department. There is Wi-Fi across the whole campus. The infrastructure is average, with a canteen, tennis court, basketball court, and badminton court, along with a library and common room for both boys and girls. We have hostel facilities for both girls and boys, but without a mess. There is a lack of access to electricity, safe drinking water, and sanitation facilities.

Faculty: The faculty has good knowledge of the subject, and the teaching quality is good. Exams are held annually, and one has to pay an exam fee of 700 to 750 INR. The passing percentage for exams is an aggregate of 45% in total. We have two honors papers in the 1st and 2nd years, and after the 2nd year, we have eight honors papers along with GK and GS, which is a passing paper. In the 1st and 2nd years, we have two subsidiary papers, which are also passing papers, along with a composition of 50 marks each; English and Hindi are passing papers too.

Other: I was a student of Political Science Honors. We read about politics and political institutions in society. One can pursue careers in civil services, law, and other political institutions, firms, and social work in NGOs. The course should offer some apprenticeships to improve job opportunities. One can also pursue this course through the Bihar student credit card.

Very satisfying because of the faculty and good placements every year, along with really good infra.

Placements: Above 60% of students were placed every year. The highest package is 12 LPA, and the lowest package is 4.6 LPA. Approximately, most students got internships from my course in many companies like TCS, Wipro, and so many others. In the past year, our seniors secured top roles like Software Developer, etc.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very good, and the hostel is well-maintained. In my department, everything is organized properly, and the behavior of our staff is also good with us. Our hostel is very good and well-furnished. There is also a water purification facility, and the mess facility is available in a proper way.

Faculty: The faculty members are very helpful and well-educated. The way of teaching is excellent. The course curriculum is very relevant and makes the students industry-ready. The semester examinations are not so difficult because our faculty team is very knowledgeable and has prepared us well. The minimum pass mark for us is 35%.

Other: I chose this course because, from the beginning, I wanted to enter the IT sector. So, I decided to pursue this course. In my college, there are many events every month, such as annual sports, annual functions, etc. The total fee for my course is not so high due to it being a government college.
