Dissatisfied with the management and authorities.

Placements: The college itself does not provide any placements, and no companies come to the university for recruitment. Seniors who pass out either pursue their Master’s from other colleges or start working by finding jobs on their own. Internships are an academic requirement every semester in the course, but the university does not provide internship opportunities either.

Decent infrastructure, but poor placement & academic support.

Placements: I'm from the BCA 2027 batch at Gautam Buddha University and the placement ratio is very poor here with only 30 to 40 percent of students got placed. Mostly, low-paying roles are offered. The average package offered is 3 LPA to 4 LPA. Internships are mostly self-paid or self-managed. Just don't trust the infrastructure but on academics.

Review of Gautam Buddha University.

Placements: GBU (Gautam Buddha University) has many different programs like B.Tech, Psychology, BBA, etc. Many companies visit the college, take interviews, and hire students for internships. It depends on the ability of students whether they will be selected or not.

Is Gautam Buddha University good to go or not?

Placements: Only 10% of students are placed in my total batch course. The highest, lowest, and average package offered in my course is Rs. 2,40,000-Rs. 3,30,000. Top recruiting companies for my batch are TCS, Wipro, V2, and the college doesn't provide any internships or jobs. All that comes is for sales only.

The college is good for students who had less money, and this college took less fee.

Placements: Below 20 percent of students got placed. Around 15-30,000 per month jobs are offered to BCA students. Companies like Reliance and Microsoft came for recruitment. The companies offered roles like software developer for BCA students.
