Good infrastructure and campus life.

Placements: This is a state government university. Our course is Law. There is no proper placement given to us by the department. Whatever students achieve, they do it through their own potential. Aside from that, teaching is good here. In the course of B.A. LL.B. (H), students have the option to join litigation, judiciary, work in law offices, and also join top law firms.

Infrastructure: There is 24/7 Wi-Fi coverage throughout the campus, personal legal libraries, and fully AC work reading rooms. The hostel is decent with solar backup, and two meals are provided in the mess. One healthcare centre, sports complex, as well as a gym, are present in the new campus. There are two auditoriums for seminars and convocations, which take place throughout the year. Different departments participate.

Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified professors and assistant professors. Teaching quality is really good, and each has their own techniques for teaching. The only problem is that we have a faculty shortage. Semesters are conducted on time, and the passing CGPA is 6. The exams are not that difficult. Faculty members also prepare us for future entrance exams.

Other: This course is best in recent years, where technology is interacting with the traditional legal world. Personally, I do love studying law. If I talk about improvement, it would be better if they installed digital boards in each classroom. Campus life is actually so much better. If you are not into too much city life and crowds, this off-campus college life will suit you. Every year, there are a lot of university fests, cultural events, seminars, sports, as well as alumni fests to keep the campus life lively.

Good infrastructure and faculty members.

Placements: Our college has a good environment for education and placement. Every year our college students got internships. No campus placement is available but the education provided will help you get a placement. Students got virtual and real internships for education.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure: In our college there are many facilities like smart classrooms, well-developed labs, and a library system. The Wi-Fi is provided to students for educational purposes. There is a good and big playground, a stage for any cultural programs, and many more facilities.

Faculty: In our college we got a very supportive faculty who also help in other curricular activities with respect to studies. Also the semester exams are quite tough according to our syllabus and their importance in future. Every teacher has their own strategy to educate their students.

Other: In our college there are many events conducted like annual fest, freshers, and farewell in some departments, science exhibition, and a lot of seminars.

It is a temple for students, where teachers are gods and goddesses.

Placements: It's a government college. There is no placement cell. After 2025, there will be a placement cell for MBA students and others. The college experience is good. The recruitment companies are Ultratech and Coal India.

Infrastructure: The campus is too good, and hostels are good. Overall, the infrastructure is superb. The hostel experience is super for me. The infrastructure is too good. There are 24x7 water and electricity facilities, which are necessary for a student.

Faculty: All teachers are awesome. The principal is very friendly and polite. The exam pattern is conducted strictly, which helps students to attend other competitive exams. Faculty members are also very intelligent.

Other: I chose a geology course because I heard the geology program here is good. It also conducts extracurricular activities and many events.

College is good and average. It is budget-friendly.

Placements: I am currently a new student of this college. I'm not sure about any placement. But I heard from my senior that there are more students who go into the research line and others do jobs at a pharma company as an assistant. Please consider asking the teachers firmly.

Infrastructure: The college department is well infrastructure, but the library structure needs more modification and work in it. I am a day scholar student, so I do not know anything about the hostel. The college scholarship section is well built, but add at least one new member to it. So that the file work can be processed easily.

Faculty: The teachers are helpful. The guide is as per the syllabus. They are helpful during every exam, occasion, etc. The course does not make students industry-ready. Exams are difficult, but if the students attend college properly, then they will easily get good marks.

Other: I chose this because I want to go into a research line in my future. The library should improve in both infrastructure and book collection. Events and fests are quite enjoyable.

A glance of my memorable past

Placements: In our Bhadrak college, there are several courses available, out of which I have chosen Chemistry. While pursuing the Chemistry course, several companies came to our college for recruitment, but those are technical. Most of the companies recruit students and offer job opportunities out of the state. However, the salaries are limited, around 2 to 3 LPA.

Infrastructure: In our college, there are 3 boys’ hostels and 3 girls’ hostels. They are like other college hostels, neither very good nor very bad, just average. But the main highlight is our department. It is well-developed and has good facilities. Our classroom has AC and a digital board, and our department has a clean lab for experiments. All types of chemicals and requirements needed for experiments are present in our lab.

Faculty: In our department, all teachers are qualified from well-known institutions like IIT and NIT. They are talented and helpful. They also give us full freedom to clear any doubt at any time whenever we need. They teach us from the syllabus and also cover extra topics required for our future in this course. The semester exams are not very difficult, but the questions asked are quite tricky, which helps to exercise the mind of each student before attempting.

Other: I prefer this course because I am good in Chemistry, and according to me, Chemistry has a wide scope in every field. There are various fields where a person pursuing Chemistry can get a job, rather than Physics or any other B.Sc. course. The only thing that needs to be developed is the attitude and behavior of students from other departments, as many students might face difficulties due to inappropriate behavior of local students who do not attend classes and wander around the college. Besides this, our college is very good in all activities, including sports.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi connection is right. Labs are clean. Classrooms are always engaged. Our college has good quality and hygienic food. The food available in the hostel, mess, and canteen is good. Medical facilities, sports, and games at our college are nice.

Faculty: Teachers help us, and they are well qualified. Teaching quality is best. The course is relevant. This course is curriculum-relevant. This course makes the student interested in study. Semester exams in this college are very difficult. 35 percent is the pass percentage.

Other: I chose this course because of my own interest. The best thing about this course is that it is relevant for a career. Events happening on campus are best.
