B.Sc. (Hons.) in Forestry - Batch of 2029

4Placements5Infrastructure4Faculty3Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Average for graduation, best for gathering life experiences, best one.

Placements: Forestry being a very unique subject and one of the most rare ones. The batch strength goes to just 50. This directly means that only 50 Forestry graduates are passing with this B.Sc. Forestry course every year from Jharkhand, as this is the sole college in our state. The placement cell of the college is genuinely very poor. However, the seniors never leave the juniors; they do help them to get better posts and achieve success!

Infrastructure: Top-notch! No doubts, the best one! The quality of the facilities of the hostel, the food quality of the hostel, and the quality of food available in the mess and canteen are the best among all departments of the university. Medical facilities are not up to the mark! Sports and games are okay, but there are no instructors!

Faculty: Professors are qualified, but expecting help from them is of no use as they are very arrogant and, in terms of knowledge, they themselves are very poor. The course is very useful in real life. The course makes the students industry-ready, as the degree is a technical course.

Other: I wanted to stay as close as I can to nature, so I chose this branch of BAU. I don't regret choosing it as my graduation degree! A bit more practical classes would surely make sense! A bit more involvement of the college and funding is necessary for the events and fests!

1Placements2Infrastructure2Faculty1Crowd & Campus Life1Value for Money

I would say that please use funds in the improvement of college, not improvement of own your houses.

Placements: There are no placement facilities, and we have to search for jobs and PG opportunities on our own. It's not that good. There is no reputation of this college in a good book, and there is no reach after graduation. Students have to do everything on their own, they don't even give us a college degree on time.

Infrastructure: The college is too old and hasn't undergone renovation. The hostel rooms are so small, 4 people are staying in 1 room in the girls' hostel, which is not good. The lab equipment is either not working or missing, and there are no medical facilities for students. The classrooms are also dirty. It's not so good what I'll say.

Faculty: The behavior of the faculty is very bad, and no one is supportive. The environment is not that good, and the teachers are not helpful in nature. They torture students for assignments and all. The papers are easy, but it depends on you totally on how you will study. The external exams and 3 internal exams are conducted.

Other: I would love to say, please don't come here and take admission.

Horticulture College, BAU - new opportunity in Jharkhand.

Placements: Only three batches have passed out till now from Horticulture College, so it will take some more time to properly setup its placement cell. At the current stage, mainly NGOs like Pradaan offer jobs. This year, IDBI Bank also came for placement with a package of 55,000 per month. At the graduation stage, they don't offer you much package. The average package will be between 2,50,000 and 4,00,000. The placement ratio is also very low. For internships, students mostly go to FPCs.

Infrastructure: As the college is newly built, the infrastructure is very new and good. The hostel is totally new. Classes are well furnished. Lab equipment is all available. All new instruments are installed. The library is also newly built, with all new books available for the Horticulture course. A mess facility is also available in the hostel.

Faculty: All our teachers are well qualified and are assistant professors and junior scientists. Their teaching quality is also very good. From an exam perspective, they all teach very well. Midterm, practical and final semester exams are held in a semester. If you study well, you will pass exams easily. Mostly, 90 percent of students pass the exam.

Other: If you are not going for the medical stream after opting for biology in 12th grade, then agriculture or horticulture can be a good option to go for. If you do an MBA in agribusiness after a B.Sc., then more growth opportunities are available.
