Bareilly College

I choose my course from this college just because the fee structure of this College is low. Like every student can easily afford the fees and the second thing is I would like to serve Indian defence forces after my graduation. So this college also includes NCC That's why I pursue my graduation from this college. The faculty of this college is very good. Each and every teacher is well educated and has a master's degree in their own subjects in their own departments. The teaching method of the teachers is very impressive like they tried their level best to make any situation Any problem in an easier way so there student can understand easily. Exams were held once per year and the difficulty level of the exams or not so much high. But good enough for the students to qualify for the exams.

The campus of this college is very large for every subject like physics, chemistry, maths, biology, and political science, each and every subject has its own departments and practical labs. Instead of this college have its own library, which Owns a very big space and has all the needful books for students. The sports faculty of this college is very good. There there are different Grounds for different sports. And each and every year there are some university games held in colleges where Bareilly College sends its own team for each and every sport. Apart from this, the college has the NSS groups and my favourite NCC camps in college every year. the students who like to go into the defence forces can join NCC in this college and make their career in the defence forces easily.

Courses / curriculum are too good and each and every courses have their own department. Even home science have their own kitchen and interior decoration class , stitching class etc. All faculties are too good and personal counseling also given. This course gives various opportunities and ba students can take MSc in future as it's home + science. Faculty members around 5-6 and students around 30 . Faculty members are too good and well trained , they had doctorate in their subjects. They all will show live examples while doing our classes. Method of teaching is both live practical and theoretical. Exam papers are not so much difficult.

Placement Experience

There were many campus placements available. Placements can be valid from 2 years onwards. There were many companies that visited the college like Boat, Raymond, and Nearby and they offered packages up to 50,000. The highest package that the company offers can go up to Rs 1 lakh and so many get benefitted from it. After college, I am planning to give entrance exams of various govt, exams and want to excel in them.

The life on the campus is quite amazing. In college, the annual fest is held once a year and gives the students a sense of relief and pleasure. There were so many books available in the library, sports were very active on the college campus and it also provides opportunities to play that sports on various platforms

Fun days

In my school when there was 12th class result day, almost all the colleges came for their promotion leaving this one. And what i believe is those who don't promote themselves, they actually don't require it as they are already well established. So this was my reason of coming here. And i chose BA in Home Science because i have no interest in studies but just for the sake of getting graduate i chose this and my mother too suggested this.

The college provides internships and placements opportunities to those who are serious because college builds their name by linkups with companies in which their students are placed. At my time companies who were into food consultation, health care, interior designing, teaching, etc used to come. But my motto was not to work rather to gain all the basic knowledge and also I belong to a rich family so i didn't felt the need of it.
