Satisfied, and I recommend it to others. The placements and infrastructure in 2024 were good.

Placements: Around 70% of students from our batch get placed in reputed companies, mainly in agriculture-based industries. Top recruiters include Boyer, SEED companies, and agro-tech firms. The average package is around 3-4 LPA, while the highest goes up to 6 LPA. Internships are also offered in reputed research organizations and agribusinesses. Students are mostly hired for roles like Agri Officers, Sales Executives, and Research Associates.

Infrastructure: The university has decent infrastructure with well-equipped labs, Wi-Fi-enabled libraries, and modern classrooms. The hostel is comfortable and has good amenities, including 24/7 water, electricity, and security. The food in the mess is hygienic and satisfactory. The campus also has sports grounds, a gym, and basic medical facilities. Overall, the living conditions and academic infrastructure are satisfactory.

Faculty: Faculty here are experienced and very supportive. They are well-qualified in agriculture-related fields and ensure practical learning. The B.Sc. Agriculture, Horticulture, Forestry, and Agricultural Engineering courses are designed as per ICAR guidelines, making them industry-relevant. Exams are moderate in difficulty. The pass percentage is high, provided students attend classes and study regularly. The curriculum includes both theory and fieldwork, which is quite beneficial.

Absolutely satisfied with the college.

Placements: 1)Usually students opt for higher education M.Sc/MBA. 2) Even though the number of recruiters is smaller, notable recruiters include HDFC Bank, Mahyco Seeds, Sangeeta, Kribhco and other pesticide companies. 3) The average number of students placed is up 10 to 12, as students aren't quite interested in jobs, and another reason is that the company's salary structure doesn't meet students' expectations. 4) A direct internship is not offered to students. It was involved in the curriculum in the last year of the degree I, i.e., the RAWE program and ELM modules.

Infrastructure: 1) The infrastructure of our college is iconic and scenic. Available facilities in departments are 5G Wi-Fi, the latest instruments and equipment, and a spacious classroom with a digital Smartboard and seating capacity of 160 students. 2) There is a separate hostel for each faculty (agri-horti, forestry and B.Teach). Hostels with 5G Wi-Fi connections are well maintained, and a mess is attached to each hostel. The reading hall is available for night studies. Books, magazines and newspapers are provided to students. 3) Both indoor and outdoor games are available. 4) A quick and emergency medical facility is available.

Faculty: 1) At the campus, there are four different colleges of UG that offer four different courses: B.Sc. in Agriculture, Horticulture, Forestry and B.Tech. in Agri Engineering. 2) All the faculty members are well educated and qualified, with excellent teaching and explaining skills. They are always ready to help and support you in every situation. 3) B.Sc. Agri and allied Science courses make students industry-ready. But the learning ability and potential of students make a huge difference and have another level of impact. 4) Semester exams are easy, provided that students are attending classes regularly and sincerely.

Other: Agriculture is undeniably significant on a global scale as it ensures food security and economic stability for the country. Nowadays, farmers are facing a lot of challenges like climate change, drought, declining productivity, and many more. I aimed to join as a part of the solution to these challenges and resolve them to the maximum possible extent. The best thing about this course is that it doesn't let you die of hunger; it guarantees you read.
