Faculty members are good but the infrastructure lacks.
Placements: The placement cell is working too hard. Recently, many students are getting placements in the private and public sectors. However, the number of placements is still less, it is impactful. The top roles from the geology department got in OIL, where only 1 student got it.
Infrastructure: Classrooms are good. As a university, it should have been better. But since our university is still under construction and the geology department will be shifted to the new building so the condition of classrooms will be better in 1-2 years. It has got the equipment.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful. Their notes help a lot during exams. Even if the exams are quite difficult but their notes and the materials that are given in the classes help a lot. Course curriculum is relevant. Teachers help and teach how to apply for jobs and others.
Other: The course is associated with exploration and fieldwork, which made it interesting.
