The college of basic science and humanities.
Placements: There is no facility for placements in my course and college. We have to appear for other competitive exams after completion of the course. There are provisions for internships for some bright students, but it depends on the faculty members. Top jobs that we can join after completion of the course are either we can go for lectureship or for research.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is of moderate level and has the basic requirements needed for the course. Labs have most of the basic equipment and anything you need can be brought with the help of the faculty members. The central library of the university is very large with a Wi-Fi facility.
Faculty: Teachers are very qualified and helpful. Other faculty members of the department are also very cooperative. There is a good bond between other departments of the university so anything we need will also be made available to us.
Other: I chose the course because I like Biology and more specifically Zoology. After completing my bachelor's and master's in that course I feel like it requires some modifications in the syllabus and needs to be more oriented towards the syllabus of competitive exams like CSIR NET.

College of Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry - A Path Towards Your Dreams and Success.
Placements: This course, which I am pursuing, is Bachelor of Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry (BVSc AH). Last year, 90% of the passing-out students from our college are doing service as Veterinary Assistant Surgeons in Odisha, and some opted for PG and higher studies in this college. The average salary offered here is 70,000. In internships, students are also paid.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very good. There are different buildings for different departments. All buildings are new and equipped with all facilities. There are smart classrooms with nice accommodation. Availability of Wi-Fi, advanced laboratories with recent new technologies, and a library with books on all subjects. There are also hostels for boys and girls. The food quality is of top level, with a restaurant-like taste. Free medical facilities for all. Different sports like cricket, volleyball, football, and badminton are available. Scope for NCC, NSS, and PE.
Faculty: The professors are very helpful, knowledgeable, and qualified with good ranks. Their teaching quality is not comparable with others. Some have received the Best Teacher Award from the University. The course curriculum is nicely managed, and students are really interested and going for the betterment of this profession. Semester exams are easy, and students can score good grade points.
Other: I have chosen this course because I think it is different from others. I have a love for those who cannot tell or communicate with us. I think this profession should be given priority like other medical professions. There should be more seats for students, and internship money should increase. In this college, many conferences are organized, which are at the national level. Veterinary Day is also celebrated. Many tours are also done every year to different parts of India.

Not satisfied as my expectations were high, but the college is not as I expected it to be.
Placements: In Bhubaneswar, some students got placed, but in Chiplima Agriculture College, no one was placed because students don't want to work in private companies with a wage of 15,000 to 20,000. In our college, students are focusing on UPSC and banking-related examinations, and many students also get jobs every year. Many students are placed under OPSC as Assistant Agriculture Officers.
Infrastructure: In hostels, Wi-Fi is installed and in the college as well. Air conditioning is present in the classrooms, and smart boards are available for writing purposes. The hostel rooms are well-furnished with marble flooring and cupboards with a lock system provided. Each student is given a chair, study table, and bed by the college. In some rooms, one fan is provided, and in others, two fans are provided. Overall, the infrastructure is good.
Faculty: To be eligible as OUAT faculty, one must complete their Ph.D.; after that, they are eligible. Teachers are quite helpful and very knowledgeable, and some faculty members come from research backgrounds. In my opinion, the course is relevant, but it needs some improvement so that everyone can get placed in agriculture-related fields. Semester examinations are not too difficult; one can easily pass.
Other: From my school days, I wanted to take admission in agriculture college as I am from an agricultural family. Placements should be given. A lot of events, programs, campaigns, and competitions are organized in our college. A minimum of 50 to 60 percent of students get scholarships every year, and it is around 20,000 per year.

Commonly asked questions
On Placements
Q:   Does Orissa University of Agriculture & Technology have better placements than Sri University?
A: 

OUAT and Sri University cater to distinct interests, even though they both have excellent placement histories in technology and agriculture. Sri University stresses entrepreneurship, worldwide exposure, and contemporary facilities, perhaps preparing you for leadership roles or even launching your own enterprise. In contrast, OUAT excels in traditional agricultural employment with strong industry links and alumni networks. Sri University offers packages averaging 5.25 LPA, compared to OUAT's approximate 3.5 LPA package. But remember that this is only an overview, and that within each university, certain programs may provide more or less comprehensive packages. The decision ultimately boils down to your priorities: international reach and entrepreneurial endeavors or stability and government jobs (OUAT) (Sri University). Before choosing, take into account your particular course, financial situation, and location.

Q:   Who were the recruiters at the Orissa University of Agriculture & Technology placements 2023?
A: 

Although the official 2023 MBA placement report for OUAT is still being worked out, past years' data indicates that a median package in the INR 3.5 LPA – INR 5 LPA area is to be expected. Agribusiness corporations such as Nestle provide rewards worth up to INR 25 LPA to their top performers; nevertheless, many organizations have minimum CGPA requirements of 6.5. Renowned employers such as Mahindra, Amul, and Infosys are often present, providing a range of employment in banking, IT, and consulting in addition to agri-specific opportunities. To obtain the complete picture, keep an eye on the OUAT website or get in touch with the placement office when the official report is out.

Q:   Is MBA at Orissa University of Agriculture & Technology better than Sri University?
A: 

Your professional vision will determine whether you choose the MBA programme at Sri University or OUAT. Both provide excellent placements, yet they serve distinct goals.

However, its emphasis can restrict exposure to a range of businesses, and its facilities might be antiquated. Higher average wages and a wider range of employment opportunities may result from Sri University's innovative curriculum, emphasis on entrepreneurship, and international partnerships. But be ready for fees that are much higher and less focused on pure agribusiness. If agribusiness, affordability, and local connections are your top objectives, then ultimately, choose OUAT. If you're looking for more possibilities, state-of-the-art facilities, and maybe even greater salaries—even outside of agribusiness—pick Sri University. Recall that the decision that is "better" for you will rely on your financial situation and personal objectives. Before making this important choice, think about your ideal location, your future goals, and your intended specialism.
