Really good infrastructure.

Placements: Very few good companies visit to provide campus placements to students in third year pursuing bachelor of commerce. This year good companies like Infosys, Bank of Baroda, and Hindalco Limited visited the campus with few posts. The salary upto 1 LPA to 2 LPA. Other companies are not so good or recognised companies.

Infrastructure: There are regular classes in commerce department. Infrastructure of the campus and department is too good compared to the other universities. University conducts many sports competitions and curricular activities. The campus is quite beautiful, clean, and tidy. Hostels are also in good condition.

Faculty: Teachers are quite knowledgeable, qualified, and helpful. Teaching quality is quite good but some of the new professors are required to handle the whole department. The course, B.Com is relevant for students interested in commerce subjects and studies, it makes the students industry-ready. Faculty members of the commerce department are good, but it still requires more good professors.

Other: I chose this course because I have always fantasized about the commerce industry and its subjects. The Odisha Government provides scholarships to students pursuing bachelor's degrees. The university conducts annual fest every year, farewell, freshers, sports competitions, and extracurricular activities too.

Review of Gangadhar Meher University.

Placements: Placements are offered not very highly. But it provides us with very knowledgeable information about our course. 50% of students got placed in top companies. Top roles offered here are CA, CS, and other famous and well-known roles. The package is 12 LPA.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is developed and maintained. Overall, ratings for this can be given as nice and clean. It is well-maintained and updated. It is easy to get along with as it provides a huge map of the campus at the entrance. It has an auditorium, a library, a canteen and everything needed.

Faculty: Exams are held accordingly, and timely. Examinations are not the main goal of our college. The main goal is to make them educated and experienced. Teachers often make sure to help us throughout our course curriculum. The difficulty level of exams is not so high.

Good placements in 2024, good infrastructure.

Placements: Companies like Mahindra, ICICI BANK, HDFC BANK, and many other such companies recruit from our college, and many students get placement in these firms. The package is confidential, so I can’t share that here. The percentage of students who got internships is good.

Infrastructure: The classrooms and buildings' infrastructure is great and well-developed. The library area is huge too; the library has three floors, and all the floors are well-structured. They have all types of facilities, and the computer lab is great too, with all the latest technology.

Faculty: The teachers are very helpful in our college. All the teachers are well-educated and well-qualified. The course curriculum is relevant, and it’s very helpful for students or aspirants of CA and Banking, as this course helps them to crack the exams. Semester exams are not that difficult.

Not a great experience - Gangadhar Meher University.

Placements: There are very less placement opportunities for B.Com students in this college. The students from other streams enjoy benefits when it comes to placement. Different tech companies including Deloitte, Accenture, Infosys, Dell, etc., offer campus placements here.

Infrastructure: The college has a decent infrastructure, including computer labs, a library, smart classrooms, and conference halls. The college also organizes sports competitions and programs on a yearly and quarterly basis. There is also a canteen inside the college premises, but the food quality there is not up to the mark.

Faculty: The teachers and faculty members are qualified and well-educated, but when it comes to a government college, they behave completely differently. The teaching quality is below average. The teachers here are arrogant and rude at times. The semester exams are pretty easy, and the pass percentage of students is around 78%.

Other: The only reason for me to choose B.Com at Gangadhar Meher University is the distance. The college is hardly 15 minutes away from my place, so it becomes very easy to reach.
