Good value for money. Very few fees and facilities are very good.
Placements: Not many companies visit, only a few companies visit the university. Placement authorities should bring more companies and tech giants for the university students. If many companies visit, then it will be very good, as under a low-fee university, it would be beneficial for all students.
Infrastructure: Facilities are available. There is a central library, 24/7 Wi-Fi, and sports and games. Hostel food quality needs to be improved very much. University buildings are very good in condition. There is a gym for fitness lovers which is big and good. There is a university healthcare center and ambulance.
Faculty: Course curriculum is good. If it adds a new AI technology subject, then it will be very far better because nowadays AI is being used in every field. A bit higher than moderate exams in case of difficulties. If students study normally without any distractions, they will clear the exam easily.
Other: Currently, there is an annual fest, sports fests, and events.

I'm only dissatisfied because of the placement cell otherwise the college is best.
Placements: The placement cell doesn't come to the law department but in courses like B.Tech and MBA the placement cell comes to take the students who are meritorious and have well-maintained CVs. Internship is also not provided by the department the students have to do it on their own by applying to the commission and companies.
Infrastructure: The law department at BBAU doesn't have any air-conditioned facility, but other facilities like water, washrooms, and Wi-Fi are provided. I don't live in the hostel so I cannot tell, but whatever I have come to know from my friends, the mess food quality is average, one room is provided to two people. A canteen is also available in the university it offers many snacks, food, beverages, etc.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and teaching quality is best. They have knowledge about the subjects they are teaching. Exams are also conducted in a mannerly way. Teachers, faculty, and co-coordinators of other departments come to keep a check on the students so that the exam can be conducted in fair way without any interruptions. 50 percent marks are required to clear the semester exam.
Other: I have chosen this course as I want to become a corporate lawyer. As many people in the surrounding area have the stereotypical ideology that law does not have any scope but when we enter into that field, I came across many new things and new skills that an advocate must have. Another thing is that intellectual property is booming in this sector. I wish that there must be professors instead of Ph.D. scholars. Secondly they must offer an internship and placement cell as well. Events are also held, like seminars, TEDx, and Utsah also takes place.

Still, it's a good college with a gym, library, & infrastructure, but placements should be improved.
Placements: The placement percentage of students in my course at my college is very low, with a below-average package. However, MBA students have a good placement percentage and decent packages. The highest package, to my knowledge, is 8 LPA, the lowest is 2.5 LPA, and the average is around 4–5 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Wipro, Infosys, etc. Around 30–40% of students get internships at companies like Flipkart, Wipro Infotech, and others. Top roles offered are Software Engineer and Team Head.
Infrastructure: The gym and library are very good. The department is average. The hostel is good but has limited seats. Only students with high marks have a strong chance of getting a seat. There is a big ground with good courts for basketball and badminton, plus football and cricket grounds. The mess food is average in quality and cheap, at Rs. 100 for 3 meals. There is a central university hospital with good medical facilities. Wi-Fi is available across the campus with very good speed.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful and qualified. They teach us very well. The course curriculum is not fully accurate but is moderately relevant and makes students industry-ready. Semester exams in this college are not very tough. If you study moderately, you can pass them, and the pass percentage is around 60%.
Other: I chose this course because of my interest in coding. The best thing about my course is working while sitting on a PC. I wish our course focused more on our subjects from the first year. Utsav, Holi, Diwali, and many other events are organized. Connectivity is good with the airport and the city. Scholarships are provided by the state government as it is a central university. Extracurricular activities include dancing, speech events, event management, and other activities.

In the end, university is so good. It's a central university.
Placements: Most of the top recruiting companies are government companies. Some private firms also come for placements, but there are some placement issues with every department. Most placements are in the UIET department, which is the engineering department.
Infrastructure: Food and hostel facilities are affordable. Wi-Fi is available, and the mess is connected to the hostel. Mess food costs Rs. 100 for three meals a day. The major reason to join the hostel is that it is cheap, clean, and has facilities like water, labs, a canteen, medical staff, and other facilities. All of the things in university are good.
Faculty: Exams are decent, with hard checking. There is limited time to complete the paper. You need to prepare well in advance and have good writing skills because the exams can be tough. In Hindi, the papers can be very difficult.
Other: You'll love the campus.

Academic and campus review of BBAU, Lucknow.
Placements: Placement is modest. Most students generally opt for government jobs rather than private jobs. They have been serving as assistant professors, PCS officers in the state government, etc. Most students work on their own to get placed. There is little help from university, although there is a placement cell in university.
Infrastructure: Hostel accommodation is provided on the basis of merit, distance, and category of the student. These three parameters are used as the basis for providing hostel facilities. Hostels have rooms with basic facilities like electricity, study desks, and 24/7 Wi-Fi service. A mess is available in each hostel, and there is also a canteen. Medical facilities are provided free of cost to university students. There is ample infrastructure for sports and gaming activities, along with separate male and female gyms.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and well-qualified in their fields of study. The teaching style is good. Two mid-semester exams and one end-semester exam are conducted to assess the capability of students in their relevant subjects. 75% attendance is mandatory for appearing in the end-semester exams.
Other: I chose Sociology because I was interested in the subject. The best thing about my course is that the syllabus is aligned with UGC NET and UPSC exams. Cultural events and connectivity drives are conducted at the university. Eligible students also get state and national scholarships.

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.
