Bachelor of Business Administration - Batch of 2027

4.8

4Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

It is extremely good for students who are free-minded. There is no bullying.

Placements: The level of placement is moderate. In this government college, we have to find internships by ourselves, as it does not offer any paid internships. Placements are okay. 70 percent of students get placements, and others just go and prepare for master's.

Infrastructure: It is a government college, but believe me, facilities are insane. It has a center AC. Classrooms have smart boards and have a good environment. We have our own app for attendance. The attendance only fills if we apply via the college app, or else we do not get a present mark.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, but teachers who are from outside of my department are not okay. They treat us badly. Teachers of our BBA department are so helpful in every way. They are the best. They teach us as if we were still in school. They write everything on the blackboard so that we can understand quickly.

4Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Absolutely worth the time and money with all the industry-ready tools to make us succeed.

Placements: The major roles which are offered in our senior batch are in finance and marketing. Almost 90% batch is being placed, and the placement drive process is still ongoing. 100% of the batch for the internships with an average stipend of Rs 20,000. Top recruiter is Federal Bank. The average package is around 7 LPA, and 16 LPA is the highest.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure with that amount of fee is extraordinary. It has a top-notch library with all the publications needed and required to be studied. We have Wi-Fi on campus and a ground to play. Infrastructure is no less than an understatement.

Faculty: The teaching method is very unique and well-engaging, where participation in the classroom discussion is encouraged. The curriculum just sits right with the trend and with the regular seminars. The students are made industry-ready. The overall pass percentage is 100%.

Other: The return on investment from this college is impeccable. The minimal investment we are getting an MBA degree from a well-renowned institute with all the best amenities to make us drive for the best.

M.Sc. in Applied Chemistry - Batch of 2027

4Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

A Best college to study.

Placements: Each year more than 60% students get directly placed from campus placement, and the rest also get their job with the help of placement cell and the department. The placement cell is getting wider day by day. The role of placement cell is very crucial and good for the students of M.Sc. Applied Chemistry. Also, this placement cell not only works for one department; in MS University, there are respective placement cells in each faculty, so no need to worry just maintain a good academic record and the rest will be good.

Infrastructure: Awesome building and facilities at laboratory and library. Overall, a good building and a good environment. Free Wi-Fi placement for all students with secure privacy and proxy network. Everyone has their unique username and password for Wi-Fi login. The parking facility in the faculty is also good.

Faculty: A best faculty overall. The teachers are helpful and always eager to get the best from students, providing sufficient knowledge in terms of extra knowledge. The level of exams is a little bit harder because they want to use your full potential. The coordinator and teachers are always helpful for every student.

Other: A best institute and a best faculty I have ever studied in. I had completed my B.Sc. from MS University as well, but my experience in M.Sc. Applied Chemistry is much better than B.Sc.

Filled with technology and discipline.

Placements: 80% of board exam students are placed in B.Com Course. The highest package offered is 12LPA, and the lowest package offered is 6LPA, provided in our course. Top requirements for companies like Reliance, Tata, Adani, etc. Top roles like Manager, Accountant, etc., 50% students get a placement.

Infrastructure: On our campus, they provide many facilities like a computer lab, a Physics lab, toilets, a washroom, clean classrooms, and hostel facilities. In our campus, there is a cricket ground, and many other sports facilities are provided to encourage the students.

Faculty: In commerce faculty, the students and all the staff members are friendly, they help students at any time students want to. In our college, the exams are very hard, so students have to prepare for 40% to pass in exam, and they will be in next year.

Other: I chose this course because I want to become a Chartered Accountant. The classroom should be renewed in our college. Many events are happening in our college recently. In a few days, Navratri will happen in our college.

College is very average.

Placements: No students get direct placement from this college of MSU Baroda. No packages available for students in the Maharaja Shivajirao University of Baroda. Companies cannot visit because college do not allow them.

Infrastructure: There is a basic infrastructure in the college. There is only classroom and principal's hobbies at this college, not other facilities like a Wi-Fi, labs, and library.

Law at MSU, academics, and after hours.

Placements: Placements at Faculty of Law, MSU, aren't very strong overall, but good opportunities can be secured if you've consistently worked on building your CV through internships and extracurricular activities. Many students opt for litigation by working under advocates though breaking into this field often requires strong professional connections. Recently, one of my seniors secured a placement with a package of around 4 LPA which is encouraging. Still, most students prefer preparing for government exams like judiciary or UPSC after completing their degree.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is poorly planned. During heavy rains, water often collects around campus, making it difficult to move around and affecting overall experience. Wi-Fi is available at hostels and college 24/7. Hostel fee is Rs. 10k per year, and food is average. Quality varies from hostel to hostel as contractor is different for each hostel.

Faculty: Programme is structured into 10 semesters, with exams conducted every six months. Each semester includes a 30-mark internal MCQ test and a 70-mark external theory exam. Curriculum is academically rigorous yet enriching, combining legal theory with practical application. Papers cover a broad spectrum of subjects, including Corporate Law, Arbitration, Information Technology Law, Intellectual Property Rights, Law and Social Transformation, and emerging disciplines like Gender Studies and Feminist Jurisprudence. Teaching methodology is interactive, focusing on real-world application over rote learning. Many faculty members have cleared NET and are pursuing or have completed PhDs.

Other: MSU offers a vibrant co-curricular scene with annual fests like Atrangi (cultural fest) and Lux et Veritas (law fest), both organized by student-led committees with month-long dedication and planning. Library facilities are excellent, most required books and journals are available in faculty library, and Hansa Mehta Library on main campus fill any remaining gaps. Annual sports events are also organized, including chess, badminton, running, and group sports. Student-run clubs like Vox Legis (magazine club) are active and engaging, while others like Moot and Eco clubs exist but are relatively less active.

MSU is a government University. Some of the newly launched M S University's Polytechnic College courses include integrated Diploma-Degree courses. These courses have already received accreditation from NBA. Being a government university, the fee for the various available programmes is not very high.
