Q: Does BHU have good placements for B.A. LL.B. Students?

At the BHU Law School, placement rates for B.A. /LL.B. Students are average. This is also due to the fact that, in contrast to other courses, it is not a technical degree that can help you get a job in a private company. The BHU Law School is among the top law colleges in India in terms of affordability and course curriculum. As of now, roughly 70% of graduates get placed in various companies or firms under the supervision of senior advocates. Some others go for an LL. M. degree, while a few prefer to sit for government exams like the PCS J. The BHU law faculty advises students on career options. This all makes this college preferred on par with some NLUs by law aspirants.

Once-in-a-lifetime experience when you enjoy the campus life of BHU.

Placements: Most of the students from our course do not prefer to be placed because some go for post-graduation, some go for litigation, and some choose to prepare for the judiciary. Top recruiting companies are TCS, HDFC, Deloitte, etc. Almost 90% of students from my course got internships.

Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure of Banaras Hindu University are very good, as the facilities are provided at a minimal cost. There is Wi-Fi on the whole campus. The library is air-conditioned, and medical costs are borne by the institute itself. The hostel of the law faculty is in very good condition.

Faculty: The teachers in the law faculty are some of the best professors in India. They have an abundance of knowledge and experience in teaching students at various law colleges. Course curriculum comprises most of the subjects of law. Semester exams are not that hectic.

Other: It is value for money, because the money you pay here is very minimal. The course is quite good, but the syllabus is vast, due to which students do not get time for other things. Campus life is best, you can enjoy many festivals here, celebrated with joy and happiness.

Great infrastructure, low fees, beautiful campus with clean environment, and is highly suggested.

Placements: Placement facility is yet to be established effectively. Otherwise, placement chances are average to none. In other departments of this university, placements take place regularly. I am in a law course, so the chances of placements are a little bit less.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure and facilities are of top-class if we see the fee attached to the course and hostel as well. Our campus is very neat and has a clean environment. The campus felt like heaven, which is away from chaos. The campus is beautiful. The library facilities are the best there if we want to study besides in our hostel room or with faculty members.

Faculty: All professors are great, and classes take place routinely. The curriculum activities are also great and scheduled periodically. Exams are conducted punctually and strictly. I recommended it to my cousins and friends also because this university is among the top universities in India.

Review of Faculty of Law, Banaras Hindu University.

Placements: B.A. LL.B course is comparatively new. Placements are satisfactory. The average package ranges from 2-3 LPA. The internship cell is quite active and informs about the internships available to students. Roles offered include case analyst, drafter, etc.

Infrastructure: Free Wi-Fi is available to students inside the campus. Asia's largest library is situated inside the campus offering a large range of books. The law department itself has a library which is the repository of all the important books required for the course. Hostel facilities are great. The food is amazing. Non-hostelers can also have hostel meals by paying Rs 50 per meal.

Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified and knowledgeable. They are approachable and helpful. They take regular classes. The teaching quality is great. The course curriculum is very relevant and makes students industry-ready by incorporating skills like drafting and moot court. Semester exams are moderately difficult with a pass percentage of 33%.

Other: I chose this course to further my interest in law. The best things about this course are the knowledgeable faculty members and the vast campus we have. One improvement that I'd suggest is the increase in focus on developing the eloquence of students. The campus crowd is good. Connectivity is also good with free bus operation for students. The campus is located in the pious city of Varanasi making the post-college hours awesome.

Good college if you are really into studies; otherwise, there are many distractions.

Placements: There is not much placement in the LL.B. course, but maybe there are in LL.M. courses. The highest salary package I have heard of is 10 Lacs Rupees per annum. But placements are not regular in Banaras Hindu University, especially in this course. TCS has been the top recruiting company so far.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our university is the best. Full of greenery and wide roads. Wi-Fi is available at all buildings but not on roads. Classrooms are good but could have been better if we consider the fame of the university. Hostel facility is really good at a really low price, but mess facility is not that good except for a few hostels. Food is good but not the best. Sports and games are also played both in hostels and the college. Overall, it is good.

Faculty: Yes, the teachers are good and knowledgeable. Most of them have been to real interviews of judiciary as well. They set papers for judiciary too. Hence, here we have a very rich faculty. The course curriculum is totally designed to match the judiciary syllabus and is hence up to the mark. Passing exams is not so tough here, but maintaining attendance is. The pass percentage is 95%.

Other: Since I have chosen law, it is a great course. We could have better competitions like moot courts on a regular basis, and the classes for moot court could have been serious. The best thing for studying here is the lowest fee I have to pay, only 1,900 rupees for the whole year. Wi-Fi is everywhere in the campus too, making students' life easy.

Something about Banaras Hindu University.

Placements: The Banaras Hindu University provides placement only to students enrolled in the course of BA LLB. They provide placement through their placement cell team, and in placement cells, team members choose among students on the basis of extracurricular activities.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the Banaras Hindu University is based on the Gurukul model. This infrastructure is looking very antique because their infrastructure is very old, but recently some new buildings were constructed on the basis of need because the university expanded their courses.

Faculty: The faculty of law is very prestigious faculty on the campus of BHU. Every department respects the law faculty, and the faculty of law is the backbone of BHU. Law faculty exam conducted in the presence of the professor, those who teach, and marking of the copy is very strictly meaning if you have knowledge and write the answer on the basis of question, than ok, but if you write the answer not on the basis of question, than you definitely fail in the exam.

Faculty of Law, BHU (an institution that will give you quality education).

Placements: The B.A. LL.B. course was started in 2014 in the Faculty of Law at BHU, so only 5 batches have passed out since. Not all students were initially ready for jobs in the corporate sector, as many or all of them are focused on the judiciary. In the past years, Tata AIG has been coming to the university to offer PPOs to 5th-year students, and the average package they offered was around 6–7 LPA.

Infrastructure: The faculty infrastructure is improving day by day as new smart classrooms are constructed with speakers, projectors, and smart boards connected to computers. Hostels here provide double-occupancy rooms with 24/7 free electricity and water supply, with an average rate of $3500 per year. The mess provides food at Rs 50 for unlimited food and only closes at night. All the medical facilities, including medicine, are provided free of charge to students, and even a 24/7 emergency ambulance is always just a call away.

Faculty: Teachers are highly educated and professional, with years of experience in teaching. The curriculum is followed by the subjects and guidelines prescribed by the Bar Council, and the classes are run according to a minimum of 90 days of teaching per semester, followed later by exams.
