Good faculty members, good hostel and infrastructure, and the worst communication and placement.

Placements: There's no campus placement here. 30% of students cracked NET, so they got jobs as assistant professors. And others got job recommendations from alumni or tried off campus. One startup company came last year and offered a 6-month internship with a job offer, but HOD didn't allow internships during the course period.

Infrastructure: WiFi, labs, and classrooms are top-notch. Hostel facilities are the best. The quality of food is good as per the price. There's a dispensary for students on the university campus. Sports competitions like UPL and football get held every year. And there're two grounds; they're huge.

Faculty: Faculty is the best, qualified, and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is best. The course is not industry-oriented, but if you're preparing for NET or GATE, it's best for you. But you will get the best education on every subject from the best faculty members.

Other: I scored rank 10 in CPET, and as Utkal University is one of the largest and oldest universities in Odisha. I had to choose this university for better education and campus life.

The classrooms are clean, and each one is equipped with AC. The hostel is pretty good and budget-friendly, costing around 5000rs per month, which includes food served four times a day. The quality of the food is good.

Faculty: The teachers in this college are highly qualified, with some of them having Ph.Ds in their relevant subjects. They are also very friendly and always clear the doubts of the students. They teach by giving real-life examples. The questions that appear in the semester are pretty good. It totally depends on your study whether the exams are easy or hard.
