Absolutely satisfied because of the faculty and peaceful environment.
Placements: There is a placement cell in my department, and a head has been assigned for it. Various law firms hire students from the 5th year itself on the basis of their merit. Almost 50-60 percent of the students got internships in my course. The highest package is 6 LPA. There is an internship cell.
Infrastructure: The environment of the hostel is quite peaceful. A library has been provided in the hostel and department itself. The security of the girls is a priority. There are Wi-Fi facilities both in the hostel and in the department itself. The library is open every day.
Faculty: The teachers and scholars are highly qualified. They teach at the best level and provide quite helpful notes. Doubt-clearing sessions are also being held. No favouritism exists here. There is a sense of quality amongst everyone.
Other: I chose this course because I wanted to be a lawyer and I find this field to be more suitable for my career. Events and fests are conducted from time to time. I wish the timing for the girls' hostel could be extended to at least 10.

3.0Placements4.0Infrastructure4.0Faculty5.0Crowd & Campus Life4.0Value for Money
Dissatisfied with B.Tech department infrastructure & facilities, along with poor placement packages.
Placements: It would be difficult to mention the exact percentage of placed students, but placements do occur on campus. In my department, the highest package goes up to 6-7 LPA. The lowest package is 1.7 LPA offered by Lulu Malls Private Ltd., while the average package ranges between 3-4 LPA. Top recruiting companies are TCS, Infosys, Wipro, L&T Electrical, etc. The college does not provide any internships. Students search and apply on their own. Few courses and hackathons take place on campus, organised by Samsung Innovation Campus in an MOU with University, which provides certificates to each participant. I am not aware of the roles in which students were placed.
Infrastructure: Labs are decent with all the necessary equipment for practical knowledge. The classroom infrastructure is simple, with no elevated structure classes. The department infrastructure is smaller. Gautam Buddha Central Library is present on the campus, with a seating capacity of 400 students at a time and a collection of more than Rs. 60,000 books covering all genres. Hostels are excellent, with Wi-Fi and electricity available 24/7, rooms with ceiling fans, study tables, single-size beds, and wall-mounted almirahs separate for both roommates. Food quality in the mess is average. Medical facilities are available at the University Health Centre. Sports and games tournaments occur very actively at the University.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful in nature and well-qualified, mostly being Ph.D. holders from IITs and NITs. They are knowledgeable and explain concepts in depth. Except for a few, all teachers are brilliant at teaching. The course curriculum is sufficient for gaining core knowledge of electrical equipment and power systems. It prepares students for industry requirements. The information provided in lectures is directly applicable in the real world. Semester exams are not very difficult. But the grading system and checking are a little tough. Although most students pass, a few may face difficulties.
Other: There are only 10-15 students in the final-year batch. After admission through the CUET exams, the number increased as University gained recognition. My batch currently has 44 students. My junior batch has all 60 seats filled. I chose this course because I wanted to study electrical machines, power supply, power systems, etc. The course does not become boring, as each semester includes interesting and knowledgeable subjects. The department size could be increased, and smart boards can be installed. Events, cultural fests, and programs occur regularly in the auditorium. Various activities also take place at the department level.

Affordable education with good infrastructure and below-average placement support.
Placements: I belonged to the B.Com (Hons) batch at Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, Lucknow. Placement opportunities are average. The highest package offered is around 4 LPA-5 LPA, the lowest package is about 1.8 LPA-2 LPA, and the average package stood at approximately 2.5 LPA-3 LPA. Some of the top recruiting companies that visited the campus included TCS, Infosys (support roles), HDFC Bank, etc. About 40-50 percent of students managed to get internships mostly in banks. Many students also secured internships on their own through online platforms. The top roles offered are Accounts Executive, Junior Accountant, etc.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University is quite good and well spread across a large green campus. Classrooms for B.Com (Hons) are spacious and well-ventilated. The university has a central library with a good collection of commerce, management, and reference books along with reading halls. Wi-Fi facility is available on campus. Hostel facilities are decent with separate hostels for boys and girls. Rooms are clean and basic amenities like water and electricity are provided. The mess food quality is average and manageable while canteen facilities are available. Medical facilities, sports grounds, and indoor and outdoor games are available.
Faculty: Most of the teachers in the B.Com (Hons) department are qualified, experienced, and knowledgeable in their subjects. Some faculty members are very helpful and explain concepts clearly while a few rely more on theoretical teaching. The course curriculum is mostly theory-oriented and covers core commerce subjects like accounting, economics, taxation, and finance. However it has limited practical exposure so students need to work on additional skills to become industry-ready. Semester exams are easy and are based on the syllabus taught in class. With regular attendance and proper study exams can be cleared easily.

Best university for M.Sc. in physics course.
Placements: Currently, the placements happening for us. In my senior batch, 90% of them were placed. Many companies come in looking for jobs, but most companies come in looking for employment and financial information. We had a great choice of dual specialisation, which made it easier for us to clarify what to do for the best placements. The roles offered were aeronautical engineer, laboratory technician, etc. Internships were offered.
Infrastructure: Hostel was nice and completely furnished with Wi-Fi and beds. The cuisine at the hostel was superb. The infrastructure of our lab was excellent. Our classrooms were tidy. Our college had digital classrooms. Hospital and eateries were beneficial. Our college promoted student participation in sports and games.
Faculty: Teachers in our college were very friendly and very helpful. Each professor had a Ph.D. in one subject, and the method of teaching classes was excellent. In our college, every exam was conducted as a semester exam, and supervision was strict. Every room had two teachers. The semester exam was easy, and the pass rate was 90%.

Medical facilities are very fast but not so good. Sports and games are also available in this college. The central library is very good with full AC.
