B.Sc. (Hons.) Physics - Batch of 2025
4.2
2Placements4Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money
Our college is the best for serious students.
Placements: There were very few placement offers, because most of the students preferred higher studies in their respective fields. Actually, since there was no specific placement cell for UG students, there was a very low number of students who got placed, i.e., 30-40 percent of students were getting placed or less than that.
Infrastructure: There was a decent hostel in our college, which was not too good, but there were some basic facilities provided by the hostel, like free Wi-Fi, and there was also a place for playing outdoor games. Overall, it was 7/10, and the infrastructure of the course was good. You don't have much pressure, you have time to explore new things and find your interests.
Faculty: There were very highly qualified teachers from all over the top universities like IIT, IISC. There was no doubt in their qualification, and they were very helpful in nature. I would say, here also, they preferred textbook studying rather than practical knowledge. The semester exam in the first 2 years was not that tough if you study regularly basis, it can be manageable, actually, you can score well in your semester exam. There was a 70-80 percent pass percentage.
Other: See if you are interested in Physics and want to learn Physics, and understand the core concepts of Physics, then I would say choose BHU ( if u don't get IISER, IISC, NISER). It's too good compared to any college you get from CUET. There were so many facilities for students and a very good environment for me. The only thing I was really obsessed with was the library of this campus, it's amazing. There were events, but not like IITs or NITs, but not bad.

B.Tech. in Dairy Technology - Batch of 2029
3.4
3Placements3Infrastructure4Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life3Value for Money
Average for dairy, above average for college life.
Placements: The placement scenario of the college is moderate. On average, students receive salary packages ranging from 5 to 6 LPA. Lactalis, Amul and Vadilal visit the campus for recruitment. The placements at the college are average, but the table and its BHU, so in future it will develop for sure.
Infrastructure: The college has good and well-maintained infrastructure that supports both academic and extracurricular activities. Our college is big, but our department isn't; we need more strength as students and as teachers, too. Classrooms and laboratories are properly equipped. Only ICAR students can get a hostel (SRK HOSTEL).
Faculty: The curriculum focuses on strengthening core concepts and making students industry-ready. The syllabus is designed as per ICAR, and laboratory work, assignments, and co-curricular activities are also included. Faculty members actively support the learning process, making complex topics easier to understand.

Bachelor of Commerce (B.Com. Hons.) - Batch of 2028
2.8
2Placements4Infrastructure2Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life2Value for Money
Good in infrastructure and campus surroundings, below average in placement and teaching.
Placements: Approximately 15 percent of students got placed in the Bachelor of Commerce. The highest package is 5 LPA to 6 LPA, the lowest package is 2.5 LPA. The average package is 3 LPA 3. Reliance, Bajaj, and some banks are recruiting companies. The percentage of students got internships is approximately 60 percent. Roles related to finance and accounting are offered.
Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure are quite good. It has a good library and a strong Wi-Fi connection all over the campus. But sometimes it lacks in maintaining classroom cleanliness. Hostels have exercise areas, a garden, and playing areas. The food in the mess and canteen is average. It supports sports and games.
Faculty: Teachers are qualified, but their teaching is not very good. They also do not take regular classes. Most of the time, they send their scholars to take classes. But some teachers are really helpful. Our semester exams are quite easy. Most of the students pass. The passing percentage is approximately 95 percent.
Other: I chose this course because I had an interest in finance and accounts. I think it would be better if it were more practical, like it should involve visiting companies to have some real practical knowledge. There are no events and fests in our faculty. Our campus surroundings are very beautiful. It has the Viswanath Temple and Kala Bhawan to visit.

B.Com (Hons.) in Financial Markets Management - Batch of 2026
4.8
4Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money
I am extremely satisfied with my faculty, course and infrastructure of the university.
Placements: Though the university doesn't provide placements for UG courses, the chances of getting a placement are not zero. Until and unless you've got a good academic record and excellent extracurricular activities. The highest package offered was around 35 LPA for MBA graduates.
Infrastructure: Banaras Hindu University is best known for its facilities, infrastructure and brand name in the market. The classes are well-equipped with smart classes, and the library has all the facilities a student needs to study and concentrate. The campus has a Wi-Fi facility for the students. The food being provided in the mess is good and hygienic, with 3 meals and evening snacks being provided occasionally. We have medical facilities being provided, considering we already have a hospital on campus itself.
Faculty: Teachers are well qualified and trained; they have full knowledge and experience in their respective subjects. The course curriculum is relevant, keeping in mind the real-world challenges; it makes the students industry-ready to face and tackle real-world situations in the market. Semester exams are moderately difficult. If a student attends regular classes and studies regularly, they'll easily get a good CGPA. The pass percentage is 40%.
Other: I chose this course because I had a personal inclination towards commerce and finance. What I like the best about my course is how relevant it is and how it teaches me to apply the knowledge I learn in college to my job later or to real-world challenges rather than any other theoretical course or degree in which we merely learn and write up the answers. I wouldn't want any improvement in my course or curriculum; in my knowledge, it is the best. Our college has several events and fests, and there are various scholarships a student can apply for, including the UP scholarship and NSP scholarship.

My college is the best in several things, like atmosphere and the study level.
Placements: There are no placements in the B.Sc. course, but in the M.Sc. course, placements take place. The highest package is 10 LPA, and the lowest package is 4 LPA. Many recruiting companies visit the college to hire students for my course. Roles are offered by chemical companies.

There are the highest students in my course. The hostel is also good. There are 4 to 5 mess facilities, 3 canteens, and a playground.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful. They teach us in an energetic and very easy language. If we ask questions, then they answer all of those questions at any place. They also take extra classes if most students have doubts about the topic. Exams conducted are very good.
Other: I chose this course because I have a great interest in Chemistry from my school time. I love studying Chemistry. I think I need to improve my writing abilities in Chemistry, like less objective, more subjective, and teachers are also helping me with this topic.
