B.A.(Hons) in English with Home Science - Batch of 2025

Offered by Mahila Maha Vidyalaya, Banaras Hindu University

4Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Absolutely satisfied with college. ATIT has provided me with a great experience of university life.

Placements: The placement rate of this course is quite exceptional. Compared to other colleges, the placement rate is high. It reaches up to 80 percent. The highest package is 8 LPA. The lowest placement is 2 LPA. The average package is 4 LPA. Top recruiting companies include publishing houses such as Penguin and Navneet.

Infrastructure: The hostel is quite good, and AC is provided. If we talk about the hostel, it is a bit tarnished, but the rooms inside are quite spacious. There is a Wi-Fi connection. The canteen is great, and the food is really nice. You get meals four times a day, so it's a very good place and highly recommendable to everyone.

Faculty: Faculty of English as well as Home Science is really nice. They are all highly qualified, and the course curriculum is divided into 6 semesters. Under NEP, it is converted to 4 semesters and 8 semesters. We have our semester exams every 6 months. The exams are not too difficult. But, we need to go through every aspect of the syllabus because it is quite vast and practical.

Other: I chose this course because I have always been fascinated by literary writers. I am also very skilled in stitching. I thought of making this my full-time work. I wish they could improve the syllabus. It is quite broad and somewhat challenging for a bachelor’s student. Apart from that, there are many events that offer great networking opportunities and exposure.

Review of IIT BHU mechanical engineering M.Tech B.Tech.

Placements: IIT Bhu (Varanasi) had 70 to 80 percent placements and the average package was around 10 to 12LPA. The highest package was 25 to 30LPA and the lowest Package was not so low its 5 to 6LPA. The top recruiters were like TATA Steel Maruti and L&T. 60 to 65 percent of the students get internships in companies.

Infrastructure: The IIT BHU mechanical engineering M.Tech had the best classrooms labs and a well managed library. It also had Wi-Fi but it does not have a consistent connection by the way. Hostels were decent newer ones were better and hygienic but older ones were also good enough and hygienic.

Faculty: The faculty at IIT BHU mechanical engineering M.Teach were very qualified and experienced in their respective fields and they were well experienced and professional. Many have PHDs in their respective field. The curriculum was also very good and up to date. Semester exams were moderately hard.

Review of IIT BHU Pharmaceutical Engineering.

Placements: Around 65-75% of students get placed. Around 18-20 LPA is the highest package, the average package is 8-9 LPA, and the lowest package is 4-5 LPA. Top recruiters are from very great and big firms, I think so the culture at companies is very good and well maintained, companies like Cipla, Dr Reddy's, Sun Pharma, etc.

Infrastructure: As you know, IIT is one of the biggest institutions in the world, and to be specific, IIT BHU is very old and well settled in this field, so it takes care of students and knows the problems of students with this much experience. The hostels are very clean, the lecture halls have AC, and the hostels have Wi-Fi, and it's high-speed.

Faculty: The faculty at IIT BHU is very qualified, as it's one of the biggest academic institutions in the world. Most of the teachers/professors have PhDs in their respective fields. The curriculum is also very up to date, and it is aligned with the needs of fields and companies.

Not something you expect.

Placements: Don't expect placements in B.A. Social Science. There are no such provisions for placements. There is a placement cell, but I have heard nothing of it, and don't know if it is functional in the social science stream. You have to prepare for other competitive exams while being there.

Infrastructure: It is average, I guess. The college was built before independence, so yes, it has British architecture and good ventilation, but it needs renovation in places. The hostels, which were built recently, give you good facilities like better rooms, electricity, and Wi-Fi, but water is a constant problem.

Faculty: Everything is formality except economics. You just need to attend one or two classes, and almost all the teachers would allow you to appear in the exam, so attendance is not a big problem in most cases. The exams are also a mere formality, as the only focus is on how many pages you have written.

Banaras Hindu University is the best residential university for middle-class students.

Placements: Political Science at BHU currently has no formal placement cell, though other departments like Geography and Chemistry offer structured placement opportunities through their faculty members. IIT organized a placement cell every year for IIT Bhu students.

Infrastructure: They provide amazing food in a mess while taking care of the hygiene of individuals. For classrooms, they are really awesome and feel self-confident. Professors of political science are really amazing.

Faculty: The faculty is supportive and knowledgeable, the curriculum blends theory with practical understanding, and exams are conducted regularly with a balanced mix of written assessment and internal evaluation. Exam patterns can be traced by PYQs and so on.

The central library is the main attraction for students with numerous books and information about almost everything, in a peaceful environment. You can find every facility from the hospital to the canteen to the library.

Faculty: The semester exams are too easy, and the syllabus is also good. They don't pressure the students much. It's just that they don't alert the students beforehand. Other than that, the dates of exams are also well planned. Professors give presentations and make the students industry-ready.
