    I recommend all students to join BBAU Central University.
    Placements: In our college, almost 70% to 80% of students were placed in MBA. The highest salary package offered was 8 LPA. Top recruiting companies like BYJU's and marketing companies visited our campus. Almost 80% of students got internships in Bangalore and Noida. Top roles offered were business analyst and marketing.
    Infrastructure: Our department was good, neat, and clean. Wi-Fi and UP's best library were available on campus. There were many hostels on campus with a good canteen and a pond. There were hostels for both boys and girls on campus.
    Faculty: There were well-educated teachers with good behavior in our college. They guide us toward a better future.
    Other: I chose this course because it has a lot of scope and good placements.

    Placements are not satisfactory, still best for students who get scholarships to study for free.
    Placements: 25% of the total students were placed in my course. The highest salary offered is 8 lakhs per annum. The lowest Salary offered is 1.8 Lacs per annum. The average salary offered is Rs 3.5 lakhs per annum. Whitehatjr, Byju's, Shriram Finance. 50% of students got internships.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure is the best part about the University, well furnished classroom with an air conditioner and Wi-Fi availability on the entire campus. The library has n number of books with relevant and updated knowledge. The facilities available for the hostel are playing ground, well furnished rooms with good quality of food in the mess. Regular medical attention is provided if required. The college support students with interest in sports and provides them with the best guidence and resources to pursue their hobbies.
    Faculty: The faculty at Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University is well qualified. All the teachers have teaching experience of more than 10years and have been awarded with Ph.D. The teaching quality is top-notch but few professors are not able to explain themselves online as they are in a habit of offline teaching. I don't think so the course curriculum is relevant as the demands of the industry have changed drastically and the student has to build his/her skills on tier own to be industry-ready.
    Other: I chose this college because of the low fees and scholarships offered by the college. The best thing about MBA and the guidance for students who want to pursue research in their fields further after an MBA. I wish the course was a bit updated and students would have been able to gain practical knowledge which would help them to get better placement and jib opportunities. Events are conducted, NCC and NSS training is providing to selected students and various scholarships are given to students based on different criteria and admission is given at RS 0 course fees. Various competitions are held at the National level and College level both organised by the University or government.

    Review of BBAU - Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University.
    Placements: I suggest not to expect many placements here. Very few companies visit our college for placements with a very low salary package. The placement cell is not that good. We don't even get an internship opportunity here, so we arrange it on our own. I am from the past 5 years. I did B.Com with no placement, and now, I am pursuing MBA in rural management. If you want to start a job with a salary of around Rs. 10,000-15,000 per month, then you can take admission, or else, I don't recommend you to join this college.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of departments and hostel is normal, and it is like other universities. Campus and hostel are surrounded by green patch all over which give a good feel. Facilities available in the hostels are quite average according to the fee structure. Our department is filled with everything that we need to pursue a degree.
    Faculty: Faculty members are only good here. You can get to know a lot from professors because they are pretty much experienced and qualified. Being in touch with them surely help you a lot in future. Overall, the education provided by them is above average. The course curriculum is designed according to the current scenario of subjects.
    Other: I did B.Com (Hons) here in the year 2015-2018, and now I am pursuing MBA in rural management. I am in the last semester. I have chosen this college because the fee for the course is Rs. 5,000 per semester, and it is a central university.

    Review of BBAU - Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University.
    Placements: Don't go by the name and fame of the university. The placement cell is the worst. Least jobs are offered here and the companies which visit are not that much reputed. Mainly the startups or low-grade companies visit the university. So if you are taking admission for grabbing the opportunity in top-notch universities then you may be disappointed.
    Infrastructure: Hostels are clean and safe here. There are no issues with the hostel facilities. There are numerous hostels here that are equipped with Wi-Fi and other sports stuff. A medical facility is an issue. They are not that good ATIT. The department is above average to study. It is well-equipped with the required resources to study.
    Faculty: We have different faculty members. Few professors do care for you. But some are not interested in sharing any kind of other things for your growth. You have to work hard here to achieve whatever you want further. Don't expect much from the people of the department.
    Other: I chose human resource management. I am doing this from this university because I didn't manage to grab admission anywhere else. Even the fee charged is low. I managed to get a scholarship as well.

    An Overview of BBAU on the basis of different parameters.
    Placements: If you go through by the Central University status, the University has below average placement facilities. I am an HR student of batch 18-20 and around 10 or 15 students are only placed out of 200 student batch. The university doesn't even help in grabbing the internship, that too you have to arrange and do. So if you are expecting a high package placement from here, I am afraid to tell you that you will be disappointed.
    Infrastructure: Talking about infrastructure, it is one of the most beautiful University in Lucknow. All the departments are equipped well to study. The best part is the Gautam buddha student library. Don't know a lot about hostel but have heard from friends that they are good as well to stay.
    Faculty: Don't expect so much from teachers here if you yourself are not approaching them. Teachers are well qualified but if you want to gain something more then you will have to approach them. Teachers are highly qualified and experienced. The course which is framed is perfect in the context of the HR Industry.
    Other: I chose this course here because of the Central University Value. The fees is very nominal if you compare with other universities and college. Also, the value of the central tag in degree will help you a lot further. Greenery is spread all over the campus. There are some events that take place in the auditorium of University. The Auditorium of University is soo beautiful.

    If you are academically average students, then I recommend that you must take admission here.
    Placements: Placements are not very good in our college. A few students got selected in companies which visited our university for placements. The quality of placements provided is very average. If you want to attend placements, you have to register yourself in university placement cell, and then only they let you know about placements. If you attend placements with the help of the reputation of central university, then the quality of placements provided to you is very average.
    Infrastructure: I have not stayed in the hostel, but I have heard from my friends that the facilities provided in the hostel are good enough. The quality of the food served is also good. There are 3 or 4 boys hostels as well as girl hostel, and they are well-equipped with Wi-Fi facility, gaming and medical facilities. BBAU is good enough for you to study. Classrooms are well-equipped. The best thing about our college is the library is awesome for students who really want to study something sincerely.
    Faculty: There are more than 90 courses in our college except for medical courses. Permanent professors are pretty good for you to gain knowledge from them, but the quality of teaching of temporary teachers is not much good. Teachers are well qualified and educated. Courses are also relevant for students to study.
    Other: I am pursuing MBA in marketing management, and my course is the department of rural management. I took admission in this college because I thought that if I have a degree with the reputation of central college will somehow help me further.
