Good academics and an affordable course.

Placements: Around 20 percent of my friends get placed during the 3rd semester. One of my friends also got selected at EIL in the final semester. Placement drives are conducted during the final semester. There is also a possibility of three or more students getting selected by the JSW Group of Industries.

There are good faculty members and good placements in other departments.

Placements: There are 60 students in each batch of the IMBA course. Placements are not good. Usually, they do not bring many companies. Internships have to be found on your own. Every student has to do an internship compulsorily in the 5th year. Normally, private banks come for recruitment. Otherwise, placements are not good in our department.

Overall, this is a great college with friendly and supportive teachers.

Placements: Around 23 students are enrolled in the course I am doing. It provides great knowledge about politics in both academic and practical ways. We get to interact with people outside as this course is all about politics, and political work happens at the ground level. This course will definitely help in civil services, both central and state level.

Review of Buxi Jagabandhu Bidyadhar Autonomous College.

Placements: I don't know much about placements, as I have sociology as an honours. But when talking to law students of our college, they have got lovely placements, but still, I don't know much about it. I do have friends there, but I don't know much about it or talk about it.
