B.Sc. (Hons.) in Mathematics - Batch of 2024

3.8

3Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life3Value for Money

There is pressure for classes and semesters, but hostel management and campus environment are good.

Placements: Basically, we got admission in the Mathematics department of Viva Bharati University in 2021, during the lockdown because of the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, because I was an internal candidate, I got admission based on my H.S. marks. In our batch, there are 40 students in the UG section. We have to pay Rs 6500/- (for SC candidates) for admission. We received a scholarship (SVMCM) of Rs 18000/- for scoring 80% in HS and 60% in semesters. After passing out, a few of our batchmates got admission in IIT & NIT for a Master's degree by the JAM entrance examination. Because of their mathematical background, many students got jobs easily.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are good, well-maintained, and clean. There are different libraries for different bhavans and a central library that is also well maintained. Here, all students get free medical facilities. Hostels (some restrictions for girls, but no restrictions for boys), labs, and canteens (cheap & healthy food provided) are also good.

Faculty: Teachers are very good. If there are any difficulties in understanding any topic in class, we can go to the teacher's room, and they will personally teach us and solve our problems. Semester exams are tough, as well as in other universities. But the classes are regular, and our attendance is checked properly.

B.A. (Hons.) in Hindi - Batch of 2028

3Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Good faculty and infrastructure.

Placements: If we talk about foreign languages, then after becoming fluent in a language, one can easily get opportunities in any multinational company. In the field of Hindi, one option is to become a teacher of this subject, and apart from that, becoming a professor is also a good career choice.

Infrastructure: The entire university campus has free Wi-Fi facilities. Talking about the library, many departments have their own libraries, and apart from that, there is a central library where we can easily access lac of books. The seating arrangements are also quite good. Viva-Bharati has around 30 hostels in total. The hostel facilities are average. Some hostels are in very good condition. For medical needs, there is a hospital called PM Hospital, where students receive free treatment.The campus is very large (spread over about 1,100 acres). There are so many trees here that it feels as if we have entered the lap of nature. The atmosphere here is completely peaceful.

Faculty: The faculty here is quite good. Speaking of teachers and backgrounds, they have completed their degrees from prestigious universities in the country. Their teaching methods are easy to understand, and the behavior of all the teachers is also good. Semester exams get delayed sometimes because admissions through the queue take time. The passing percentage in some departments is very good, but overall, the passing percentage is found to be a bit low.

Other: I already had an interest in Hindi, which is why I chose this subject. The history of this department has been very unique. Many great writers have served as teachers in Hindi Bhawan, such as Hazari Prasad Dwivedi. Apart from him, many renowned poets and writers used to visit here. Viva-Bharati was declared a World Heritage Site in 2023.

M.Sc. in Botany - Batch of 2024

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Overall, best university for M.Sc. in botany course.

Placements: Most of the students got jobs in top multi-national companies. Last year, the highest salary offered was around 23 LPA by Microsoft. The average number was also high. Top recruiting companies were NCBS, CMFRI, IISc, etc. Many students were offered full-time jobs and work in a variety of supporting roles. Top jobs were botanist, plant taxonomist, and so on.

Infrastructure: Facilities at our college were quite excellent. Every branch consisted of blocks, and each block included either lift 1 or 2. We additionally maintain distinct areas for sports, library, and canteen. College campus lacks hotels, but there were 3 hotel locations within 5 KM. I prefer staying at private hotels since they offer larger and higher quality rooms.

Faculty: Faculty members were highly experienced. Most of them completed their PhDs. They were friendly while teaching and clarifying doubts. College was self-contained, so semester exam correction was done at the college itself. The hard paper was moderate. The pass percentage was always high. The pass rate was over 50%.

Great campus and professors.

Placements: Placement is very low. There is no placement in the arts subjects, but there is placement in the language and management courses, etc. The scenario isn't that great now, but when the university was ranked in the top ten in NIRF, placement was better than it is now.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are good with AC available, and free Wi-Fi is provided on campus. A cooler and free Wi-Fi are also available in the hostel. The hostel fee is very low. The hostel premises are clean, and there are many canteens, grounds, and a gym with well-equipped machines and a trainer.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, knowledgeable, and their teaching quality is also great. The exams in the university are difficult. The pass percentage is 40%. The curriculum is also relevant, but I don't think that it makes the students industry-ready, to be honest.

Other: Our batch was very good, they all were helpful and good at studies as well. The best thing about my course was the professors. They literally helped us a lot, along with the Ph.D. scholars. The surrounding area is full of greenery, with well-maintained roads, and a lot of functions and rituals are also celebrated.

2Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

A short peek into Kala Bhavana, Visva-Bharati University.

Placements: The situation of placements is very dire, as there is nobody placed from the institute. The institute does not help in any way to get you into a job or internship, especially if you're doing a BFA. Students mostly figure out their way by applying for internships and various fellowships.

Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure are pretty good; it's not very modern as the institute is a heritage site, but the facilities provided are very good. You get specific art supplies from the department, and the best thing is the studio availability; it's open 24/7. The hostels are also good; I won't say very good due to the lack of a canteen and all.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful if you're open to talking to them. They are knowledgeable, and the teaching quality is good. The course curriculum is somewhat in between very modern and old school. Semester exams are not very difficult, and the pass percentage is high.

Other: I chose the course to understand art practices and the art world better. The best thing about the course is that it's very chill and lets you have time to brew your imagination and creativity. Some new equipment would be helpful. The fests are not too many, but it's decent; the best one is Nandan Mela, a must.

I am absolutely dissatisfied with this university.

Placements: 18% of students get placed in my course. The highest package is 3 LPA, and the lowest package is 2 LPA. The average package is 1.5 LPA in my course. The top recruiting companies of my course are the State Bank of India, non-government organisation, etc.

Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure available in my course are free Wi-Fi, a library, and classrooms. The quality and the facilities of my hostel are below average. The quality of food available in the mess is not very good for health. The university has Person Memorial Hospital.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality of teachers is good. The course curriculum is relevant, but it does not make students industry-ready. Semester exams are difficult because the professor does not complete the syllabus on time.

Other: I chose this course because in the future it helps me to get a social work. The best thing about my course is international economics.
