Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is good. Facilities like high-speed Wi-Fi and good classrooms are available in our college. It has a good library to study. The hostel's quality is good and it has all the facilities like mess, sports, and games.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are helpful, knowledgeable, and well-qualified. Their teaching is very good. The course curriculum makes students ready for industry. Semester exams are averagely difficult.
Other: I chose this course because of my interest in learning different languages. Our college conducts different extracurricular activities. Improvements are not needed in our course.

This college is not like any other college.
Placements: Many companies will arrive at the college to hire you at the semester end. You can also get part-time jobs during your study period. The university will allow only the top and reputed companies for the campus placements, but getting a placement depends on the language you choose. So, best of luck.
Infrastructure: The classrooms are clean with facilities like a library, computers, maps, pictures related to the topic, etc. Wi-Fi facility is not available in the classrooms. Don't expect good quality food in the canteen. The girl's hostel is too good, but boys hostels are okay. The central library is the largest library you have ever seen.
Faculty: The teachers were really helpful and highly qualified, there is no doubt in that case. The teaching quality depends on how much you can understand. They will teach you using the desktop also. The teachers are unique and interesting, and every teacher has a different quality of teaching.
Other: There are a lot of events conducted like Basanta Utsava, Poushmela, etc. These events are very famous at our college.

Life at Viva Bharati University.
Placements: You can earn handsome amount of money by being a bilingual translator. You can also become a language interpreter. Jobs like these are very much in demand these days. If you're interested in administration or jobs concerning defense organisation, you need to know a foreign language in that case you can be benefited as well. Best of Luck!
Infrastructure: Food is cheap and medical facility is of top notch. There are a lot of cultural facilities available since the University promotes diversification of knowledge borders. Sports and games are regularly conducted and interested people are even offered with good coaches.
Faculty: The teachers here are highly qualified and very skilled. They have a handsome amount of work experience. They are very much diligent and inspiring. They make students highly efficient in their respective language. The teachers here are widely acknowledged.
Other: I chose this course mainly because it gives me enough time to prepare for my competitive exams like IAS, IFS or IB. The language gives me added benefit to apply on those kind of exams. Viva bharati has a separate base for it's cultural activities. There are so many highly accomplished fests and events that I cannot even name. The campus is wholly indigenous and reflects the high spirit with which Rabindranath Tagore had established it.
