The best college from my experience.
Placements: Almost 60% of students got placed in our course. The highest salary package offered was 25 LPA, and the lowest was 15 LPA. Around 25–30% of students got internships. Our college taught us about technology, infrastructure, business processes, and historical topics. I never applied for any internships, but at the end of every year, the placement cell of our college invited more than 30 companies to hire new interns.
Infrastructure: The college offered hostel facilities for students who lived far from home. There were limited seats in the hostel, and you got a hostel seat based on merit and the distance from your home. The hostel was a good option for girls at Bharati College, as it was safe and provided good infrastructure facilities.
Faculty: The course curriculum at the university, followed in all the colleges, was amazing. The study of history became more thematic as soon as I entered undergraduate. This helped us understand history beyond just wars and kings. Faculty delivered the lectures professionally, as they were trained to do so, and they had quite good academic experience. They gave us assignments that we had to complete, and teachers kept us updated with regular updates on subjects. They were friendly with the students. I was very satisfied with their teaching methods.
Other: In the first year, courses offered by faculty and department were limited, but in the M.A. final year, the courses became more diversified, and specializations were introduced. Students could choose based on their likes and the subjects they wanted to study in the future.

The students, faculty, staff and everyone is good and sociable and friendly.
Placements: I'm new here; I don't know that much. But maybe from 5th or 6th semester students are eligible for campus placements, as per the faculty members; many companies visited the university. As per the college site, 90% of students get placement. I don't know that much about internships at the university, but as per the seniors, students had a positive experience. Some students have secured internships with companies like Wipro, HDFC, and the Aditya Birla Group.
Infrastructure: So many functions, like International Mother Language Day, Kabi Guru Utsav, Basant Panchmi, Holi, and Naba Barso, are celebrated. They have a good central library and a separate library for the department. Not so modern technology is available there. They organize good sports.
Faculty: The faculty members are good; this is my first year, and I quite like the faculty there. Some faculty are strict, and some are funny. Faculty members are very approachable, as they said if you have any problem related to ragging or studies, you can talk to them. I think everything is good among teachers and students. There are exams held in the name of mid 1, mid 2, and ending sem.

The students, faculty, staff—everyone is good, sociable, and friendly.
Placements: In the 2nd sem, college gives the opportunity to join an internship at VI company, and in the 3rd semester, one more internship is offered. College internships allow us to earn money by doing that simple internship. The internship is from the college. In this college, there is less placement for all the branches. To be eligible to give an interview, you must have above 75% in 12th and never failed in exams. In each exam, you need 8+ CGPA. After this, you will be eligible for an interview.
Infrastructure: So many functions like International Mother Language Day, Kabi Guru Utsav, Basant Panchmi, Holi, Naba Barso, and Jorasanko Dibas. They have a good central library and a separate library for departments. Not so modern technology is available there. They organize good sports.
Faculty: In the 1st year, 1st semester, faculty treats you very good. After the 1st sem, the faculty shows their colors. Some teachers are good, but some teachers are average. Some teachers teach you better. The faculty members are helpful. The faculty and student relationship is good. All the faculty members are well-educated and good at teaching both theory and practical. There are practical exams, internal exams, and semester exams. Tests are also conducted by the faculty members.

The campus is very beautiful and have a good vibe. Infrastructure is very highly developed.
Placements: So when a student is in his 4th year, he becomes eligible for pu placement in the 7th semester. Cognizant, Accenture, etc. are some of the recruiters. The highest package is 54 LPA, and the average package is 5 LPA. There is 100% placement. I want to join a company through placement. We have done internships at some companies; our major project has also done well.
Infrastructure: Basant Utsav, Saraswathi puja, fest, fair, and many more are organized. A library is available. Projectors, computers, and boards are available. You will always get to hear about extracurriculars one day or another. You may or may not join the union.
Faculty: The course is a four-year Bachelor degree course. There are roughly 60 faculty members in the college for around 500 students. Exams are conducted periodically along with laboratory as well as written. Students are molded to prepare for the university exams with proper weekly tests.
