Good academic support but limited industry readiness. Decent infrastructure, and vibrant campus life
Placements: I am from the B.A. psychology (hons) batch at Chhatrapati Shahu Ji Maharaj University, Kanpur. While placements for psychology students are still developing, some students do find opportunities in NGOs, schools, and mental health organizations. Internships are self-source, with students interning in areas like counseling or HR, with growing awareness around mental health, the scope for psychology graduates is increasing steadily.
Infrastructure: B.A. psychology course has a basic infrastructure with decent classrooms and a well-stocked library, as well as a laboratory for psychology practicals. Hostel facilities are average with simple food, basic medical help, and some sports amenities. Wi-Fi and lab facilities are limited.
Faculty: Faculty members are supportive and knowledgeable, though teaching methods are mostly traditional. The curriculum is relevant but not fully industry-focused. Semester exams are moderate in difficulty, and the pass percentage is generally high. Extra academic guidance depends on student initiative.
Other: I chose B.A. psychology due to my interest in human behavior and mental health. The best aspects of the course are its foundation knowledge and diverse subject offerings. However, practical exposure and modern resources could improve. Campus life is vibrant, with events and fests, though connectivity could be better.

Everything is good including the University infrastructure and facilities.
Placements: Don't know anything about placements as it is a new course started by CSJMU, but it will soon start a master's in psychology, which will definitely provide good placements after your master's in psychology. In our course, internships are not compulsory.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good. We have Wi-Fi and smart boards in our classes. There are hostels for both girls and boys and many facilities available, and there is also a canteen and other shops opened for university students. There are also facilities related to games and sports.
Faculty: Teachers are really helpful, and exams are also not very difficult. The course is very interesting, as in psychology we mostly study about mind, behaviour, intelligence, cognition, personality, etc. If you have an interest in all these things, then you can definitely go ahead.
