BHU is one of the prestigious institutes in Asia.
Placements: Some well-known companies like ONGC, OIL India, etc., visited the college and recruited geophysics students. As per the records of the last year, approximately 25-30% of the students were placed. The salary package offered was 18 LPA, for all the placed students. They got the job as a geophysicist in the oil and petroleum sector.
Infrastructure: Classrooms are good. Wi-Fi facility is available 24x7. Hostel rooms are up to the mark. Food served in the canteen and mess is average. Quality of labs and classrooms is average. I didn't face any issue related to the infrastructure during my tenure at the college.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are highly qualified and very good. The quality of teaching is good. Classrooms are equipped with projectors. Some teachers teach using the projector, and some teach on the board as per their choice. The course curriculum is useful. We went for an educational tour in the first semester, where we got industry exposure.

Geo physics is the most influential course in India these days and also, it has the widest network to work with. Therefore, in my opinion, geophysics is good to opt, if you are interested to pursue.
