Anonymous's Review On BJB Autonomous College - [BJB], Bhubaneswar

I chose this college as it is one of the best government colleges of Odisha. Very few colleges indeed provide the biotechnology degree course. The best thing about the college is that it is re-accredited at 'A' level by National Assessment Accreditation Council (NAAC).

The course curriculum is designed in such a way that it not only prepares students for university exams but also for competitive exams. As the biotechnology course demands for a combination of a variety of subjects, the syllabus is designed in such a way consisting of core subjects and general electives. The syllabus was recently updated for the students of 2019-22 session which is more student-friendly.The faculties are good and very interactive with students.We have one guest faculty who teaches the toughest subjects with the help of PowerPoint presentation to make the concepts look easier to understand.The practical classes are really interesting.

The placement opportunities are more for the students of Computer Science stream. In the last three years,annual campus drives were organized in association with organizations like IBM Daksh, Genpact, TCS, Wipro, Infosys, HSBC, SBI(for Probationary Officers). Many students in the final year are given opportunities in the drive and many of them have been selected and now working in different reputed organizations of the country.

The college conducts a lots of cultural events and competitions. A Fresher's party is given officially to welcome the new-comers. The Farewell parties are also given officially to the pupils in the last year of their degree. A lots of competitions are held at the end of the year like dance,song,debate,essay,drawing,poster making,quiz,jhoti and rangoli competitions followed by Annual Function and Prize Distribution.

The Prerana Scholarship is provided by the Govt. of Odisha to the students of reserved categories like SC/ST /OBC/SEBC/EBC to provide financial support to the poor and meritorious students.Another scholarship e-Medhabruti is also provided by the government to the UG students coming under low-income category with annual income less than 6 lakhs p.a. with an amount of rs.5000 each year for 3 years.

The college has an ancient infrastructure as it was established almost in the year 1957.Recently,certain enhancements has been done in the infrastructure which makes the college more appealing.The college has a large campus,spacious classrooms,Basketball Court,large playground,hostels,canteen,innovative library and laboratories. The equipments in the labs for self-financing course like Biotechnology needs to improved because all the practicals given in the syllabus cannot be performed due to lack of some material or equipment.
