Very satisfied. Everything is okay, like the canteen, playground, teachers, labs, and classrooms.

Placements: The majority of the students get placed after cracking the interviews. Mainly Apollo, Fortis, CMRI, Max Hospital, and other well-known hospitals from different regions of India, especially Kolkata in West Bengal, offer jobs. Additionally, the department arranges 3-month internships for the students in the 5th and 6th semesters so that they gain hands-on experience.

I'm absolutely dissatisfied.

Placements: For the B.Sc. (Hons.) Agriculture course at Brainware University, about 98 percent of students are reported placed in recent batches, and in my B.Sc. Agriculture course at Brainware University, the highest package offered is around 7 LPA, the average about 3.5 LPA, and the lowest approximately 2 LPA for fresh graduates.

The college offers good value for money in terms of the quality of education and facilities.

Placements: The college has an active placement cell. It provides very good support and guidance to students. Many reputed companies visit the campus for recruitment. They offer good packages and internship opportunities. The placement team also conducts training sessions, mock interviews, and soft-skill workshops to help students become industry-ready. The placement record is impressive and keeps improving every year.

Not satisfied with the university administration at all, we were cheated on our scholarship.

Placements: Our college advertises a placement percentage of 98%, which is not accurate. Typically, 45% to 50% of students secure placements in companies. Most recruiting companies are Bangalore-based Indian firms, and the average package is around 3 LPA. The highest offered package was 7 LPA, but not a single student was selected for that position.
