Lifestyle in our university.
Placements: The number of placements at our university was reduced rapidly when compared to previous years like 2020 and 2021. The median package offered by them during 2023 placements was 3.6 lacs per annum, while it was up to 5 lacs per annum during the previous years.
Infrastructure: Our university provides all the facilities within the campus itself. There will be several laboratories, such as for medical, engineering and arts students, which may depend on their courses. There will be a central library with all facilities, even for students who are involved in searching.
Faculty: They are very perfect in their duties and they are very helpful and supportive. They arrange industrial visits for our students every year. And clearing semester examinations in our college is a little bit tougher, so we have to study hard to crack the exams.

Our college is good but need to be more better with cultural activities.
Placements: Software engineer and graduate trainee roles are offered. The lowest salary package is 1.8 LPA. Around 20% of students got placed. The highest salary package is 6 to 7 LPA. TCS and Wipro are the recruiting companies.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is a little damaged and lacks cleanliness. Wi-Fi, library, and medical facilities are available but students are not aware of those. There is a huge space for sports and games but none of the sports and cultural activities are organised.
Faculty: Teachers are well qualified with good skills and very much knowledge. Their teaching quality is very good. Some teachers are not that good. The pass percentage is 35%. Semester exams are normal to moderate.
Other: I chose this course because it has a good scope in the IT sector. Practical knowledge should be improved.

Dissatisfied with the college.
Placements: Placements in our college are not good. Students of our senior batch were also not satisfied with placements. Only 5% of the students were placed from college. The salary package offered was low. The placement cell is not useful for students as far as the placements are concerned. They always give fake information that many good companies are going to visit our campus for placements. But the reality is no company ever visit the campus for placements.
Infrastructure: The campus is Wi-Fi enabled. They don't have an advanced lab. The quality of the classrooms is average. Sports and games facilities are available. They don't provide medical facilities. The food served in the canteen and the facilities provided are bad.
Faculty: Faculty members are not good excluding one or two faculty members. They have the best knowledge. Teaching quality is also good, and our teachers use many methods to teach. The course structure is good, but the overall teaching quality is not good.

My personal thought on MCA course at Patna.
Placements: There are no placements at all, so students have to try by their own. The college facility will help to get the on job training docs. Once, TCS visited our campus that is what I remember. Need some consultants who can help students in a better manner. Students have to pursue to get a project as well as get a job.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good and the college campus is also good. There is more space to play and learn. The infrastructure can be even better than the current one. Empty places can be utilized for plantation as well as to make better places and laboratories. More greenery can be made there.
Faculty: Faculty members are good here. There are fewer faculty members but they are good. They need to invite more experienced faculty members to make a better place for education. As MCA is a very technical course, inviting more industry people will be good. Study hours should be properly utilised so that a student can gain what they need there.

Placements: The Year 2016 was the year which was a Lucky for My seniors. 6 to 7 of my Colleagues Got Placed in WIPRO, TCS and many more companies. You can Visit MCA PATNA UNIVERSITY PATNA. Here anyone can see the placement related information. Afterall MCA degree from regular college helps us to get offline opportunities.
Infrastructure: In fact, with a very limited area, we are provided with full facility. Fully Wi-Fi, Fully AC Lab Room with Internet Embedded Personal Computers. Large parking area, Refrigerated Drinking water Facility. A large number of PCs are installed with OS like UNIX, LINUX, REDHAT, and Window.
Faculty: The Course is Fully Self Finance, but I must say it provides a facility for the students to study under Good Faculty Members. The Faculty are Guest faculty, they are invited from the reputed college like NIT PATNA, LN MISHRA, and some are Experienced.
Other: Being a small college it is affiliated to the prestigious University of Asia, I am very delighted to be a part of this college. As far as placement is concerned it depends entirely on our Knowledge and Skills.
