Best B.Ed in Himachal Pradesh.
Placements: After completing B.Ed, some of my classmates got jobs in private schools with good amount of salary. Some were preparing for government exams and some of them were doing masters in education from the department of education Himachal Pradesh University Shimla for higher studies.
Infrastructure: There were 3 boys hostels and 10 girls hostels. University provided us with many facilities like hostel and mess. For girls, there were washing machines. The infrastructure was also good. The food was very good. They provided 3 meals for girls and 2 meals for boys in a day. There were 2 special dinners in a month.
Faculty: The university provided us up-to-date curriculum according to modern needs. Mostly in B.Ed we learn about psychology. The exams were not so hard. Every semester we had to give 5 exams at least, and there was one month of internship in 2nd semester and 4 months of teaching practice in 3rd semester.

Faculty was good but the infrastructure was rather poor. There was no placement after the course.
Placements: There were 10,000+ students all over the state, but there wasn't any kind of placement or internship provided by companies. There is no guarantee that you would be qualified after the course, you have to pass the qualification test for the job. You can try in the private sector for the job after the course.
Infrastructure: There were plenty of classrooms, a computer lab, and a library. They serve no food, you have to get your own. There were some sports meets during the course. There were no medical facilities. You can play during your free break, but only with the permission of the teachers.
Faculty: Some teachers were helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. They taught with their heart and tried to encourage the poor students. It was basically a teaching course, but didn't make students for the industrial area. Semester exams were quite good, neither too easy and hard. There was a minimum of 33% passing marks.
Other: This course was basically for teaching. This course taught how to understand children and teach them academics. The course should have been in a limited time period, rather than 2 years. It should be less expensive.
