B.Sc. in Chemistry - Batch of 2028

Offered by Bhadrak Autonomous College

3.8

3Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

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.

B.Sc. in Chemistry - Batch of 2025

Offered by Bhadrak Autonomous College

3Placements4Infrastructure5Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

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.

Overall, the college is good.

Placements: As I am a student in B.Com, there is no direct placement, and an internship is not available. This college was government-run. There is no exact no of students from my course who got an internship. After the completion of this course, everyone is doing higher studies or preparing for government exams.

Infrastructure: Both the classroom, labs, and library are well maintained. There is no Wi-Fi available in college. The quality of facilities in our college was also very good. There is no canteen available. Medical facilities, sports, and games are available in our premises.

College is good for irregular students. Those who are preparing for a competitive exam.

Placements: In my course, there are 21 students. There's no package in this course, we have to either look for a job or continue higher studies. I'm currently pursuing graduation, so there are no companies coming to the college to offer us a job. So, in a nutshell, I don't recommend taking admission in this course or even this college.

Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure are just good, or we can say not up to the mark, the Wi-Fi never works. There are some extracurricular activities that happen in college, such as sports or games. The hostel is just a mess and not clean, and students living in the college hostel are good.

Faculty: I didn't like the way teachers are teaching, it's not helpful at all. The students need to prepare and study for the exams without any help from teachers. The semester examination is kind of easy and at the same time hard, as it all depends on the preparation of the students and the teaching of the teachers. Overall, the college has some good things.
