I suggest others to take admission here.

Placements: Patna College is situated on the bank of Ganga. Patna College has been the creator and nurturer of what is great in the state of Bihar today. Most of the children here definitely do something good in life. This is the number 1 college of Patna in terms of studies, but there is no placement of students from here. No company shows their interest here, and the main reason for this is the lack of attention of the university administration and the government to this college. But some NGOs are very active in this college, like Medha, who prepares students for placements and also help in placements. This year, some companies like Tata, Wipro, etc., have shown their interest, in which very few students have been selected. Patna College offers only Bachelor of arts. Along with it, Hindi, English, Urdu, and Sanskrit languages are also taught.

Infrastructure: Patna College was built by the Dutch in 1600AD. Its building is very big and beautiful. The classrooms are also big and beautiful. Ganga Ghar is visible from some of the classes here, whose view is quite beautiful. Earlier, Patna College is also known as Oxford of the East. All the subjects of Arts are taught here. The professors are very helpful who explain easily. There is also a large library on campus, in front of which there is a beautiful park. The name of the library is Gyan Mandir. All the books related to the subjects are available here, which you can take home for some days. Wi-Fi facility is available throughout the campus, but sometimes, there is slow internet. The hostels of Patna College are quite beautiful and big, and the rooms are clean. There is good electricity and water facility. Each hostel has its own ground where students play in the evening. All the newspapers go to the hostel every day. Mess facility is not present in the hostels here, but it is expected that this facility will start soon. There is a canteen in the college where tea, samosas, snacks, etc., are available, and one can sit there and have lunch with friends. For college students, there is a hospital in the university, where only the students and staff if the university are treated. The facilities there are excellent, medicines are given free of cost to the children. Patna College has three big grounds where cricket, football, and volleyball are played regularly. Apart from this, a sports week is celebrated every year. There are different types of sports played. Each winner is awarded by the vice-chancellor of Patna University. Apart from this, there are inter-college or university games, in which students go out to play.

Faculty: The teachers are very supportive, which is quite knowledgeable and well qualified. Their way of teaching is very good, which is easily understood by the child. The subjects taught here gave us the knowledge of the social sector to the students. It is considered quite right for the students who want to go to civil services. The examinations are a bit difficult, but if the students work hard, they can easily pass. It is mandatory to score 45% in the honors subject.

Other: Our college has a very good history. It is believed that it motivates the students to join politics and civil services. The first Chief Minister of Bihar has been a student of this college, and there are thousands of such students who have joined civil services. After studying from here, your attitude towards your society changes. Scholarships run by the government are available here. Freshers, farewell, etc., parties are celebrated by the students. You can get the solution to any problem from seniors, without any hesitation.

It is a good college but not best.

Placements: I am a student of the sociology department, Patna College, Patna University. There are around 75 students in the class, and the placement facility provided is not good. Only a few companies offer salary packages in our course.

Infrastructure: Facilities provided are not so good, and the infrastructure is not well maintained, the Wi-Fi speed is slow, and there are fewer books in the library. Hostels are fine, and the canteen is very small. The medical facilities provided are good enough, and the sports section is also good, but have some problems.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, well qualified, and extremely knowledgeable. Teaching quality is good but there are only a few teachers. Examinations are tough, and around 80% of students pass get pass. Students have to study hard.

Other: I opted for this course because sociology is an interesting subject. You can know more about society. Research should be added to the course.

The college is good for academics, but it is not much involved in extracurricular activities.

Placements: About 10% of students were placed in our course. The highest package offered was 3.6 LPA, and the lowest package was 1.2 LPA. Save the Children, World Vision, Care India, etc., are some organisations where the students got placed. 30 to 40% of students got an opportunity to do an internship in the above-mentioned organisations. The top role offered to the students of our course was field supervisor.

Infrastructure: Our college building is a heritage. The main academic block has Dutch architecture, built about 300 years ago. In 90's, it was known as Oxford Of The East. Our college provides Wi-Fi facility with efficient speed. Our department does not have a separate library, but good books are available in the central library.

Faculty: The teachers in our colleges are well qualified. They are always ready to help us. They didn't show any anger at our repeated questions. Students have to study on their own for better results. The course curriculum is relevant. It prepares the students for doing social researches in modern societies as well as tribal societies.

Other: I opted for this course because I wanted to know about the society in detail. I wish if the staff are improved, the results will be great.
