There is good infrastructure, along with well-qualified faculty members.
Placements: There are no placements in our course. There is a need for a placement cell. However, the department of economics provides placements to students in various industries and institutions such as RBI financial institutions, statistical institutions, agricultural institutions, etc.
Infrastructure: Facilities available at Darbhanga House, Patna University, are Wi-Fi on the campus, garden, girls' common room, parking, canteen, library with sufficient books and adequate classrooms as per the number of admissions available. Patna University has various hostels.
Faculty: There are well-qualified faculty members here. Their competencies and performance ability make teaching effective. They enable their students with a particular set of attitudes which leads to students learning and achievement. There is a very relevant course curriculum which makes students earn their livelihood.
Other: I chose this course because I want to become an assistant professor in B.Ed college, so for this, double PG is required. So, I have done 1 master's in education and another master's degree in economics. Our campus building was built by Darbhanga Ji Maharaj. So, our college attracts people to take admissions. Moreover, its surroundings are very attractive. At the backside of the college, there is the river Ganga and a bridge connecting Gayaghat and Digha.
