Course Curriculum Overview:
The course I have chosen is mainly for academic pursuits . The syllabus of geography includes many government exam topics. The BSc course is under CBCS curriculum which introduces new methods of teaching and new approaches to the course. There are six semester in 3 years course with each semester having 6 months . The exam questions are not tough .

Course Curriculum Overview:
Course is good. But the fees structure of my course is too high for a government college. 20-25k per year. Which is too high. We have our department in 3rd floor but don't have lift for us. Don't have departmental washroom and as well as classroom

- The campus is so beautiful and a calm place to focus on studies. The whole campus is full of trees and also well maintained.
- There are several buildings where each building contains 3-4 departments, a big auditorium, different libraries for science and arts subjects.
- Canteen's food are good and affordable too, water facilities are quite good 👍, and the Library is so good and you can read peacefully.
Dislikes
- Libraries need an upgradation with new launched books which might help the students with their semester studies otherwise there are a lot of good old and high-level books
Course Curriculum Overview:
Our semester wise course curriculum was very good as compared other universities as our curriculum contains more content and sufficient for our knowledge. There are pure as well as applied part of mathematics, students can observe, research and can choose their field on interests for their higher studies.

- The studios (editing, sound and cinematography) are well equipped with the latest equipment and softwares.
- The college has a lot of societies that host an array of different fests and events.
Dislikes
- The bathrooms could be better maintained. Since the infrastructure is old, the bathrooms aren't the best
- The food provided by the canteen could be better.
- Students should be allowed to use the elevator. My classes were on the topmost floor and it was tough to climb up four flights of stairs everyday.
Placement Experience:
Placements aren't super lucrative mainly because you won't land a great job just by completing your undergrad. However, the placement cell is very responsive and tries their best to aid students who are interested in placements.

Course Curriculum Overview:
The course curriculum was very compact. As my subject was Zoology, I loved the course curriculum including the syllabus. Curriculum is mostly based on the theory and practicals, Field reports, Excursions etc. So we did not get bored throughout the course. No improvements needed. Exams are of 3 hours and mostly Medium to Difficult level.

Dislikes
- The lab infrastructure is very bad.There is some trainer kits where we can perform the practical are defective.Even the faculties don't know that which kit is working properly and which is not.During first year practical exams it was hard for student
- very hard for some of our students to perform experiments in external colleges as the practicals are done using discrete electronic components and not using trainer kit.
- During our time the there were no lectures for general subjects(Maths and Physics).We used to wait in the class but the teacher don't come.
Course Curriculum Overview:
During our time the course curriculum was lengthy.There was some topics which are irrelevant to the subject.During our time exams are conducted in yearly format.Now the courses are designed in CBCS format and the syllabus are much updated.Exams are now held in half yearly format.

- Firstly starting with the campus, we get a large turf with artificial ground, with a huge sports arena with numerous indoor games like pool, carrom, table tennis and etc. The college has also partnered with Saatvik Catering for Cafeteria.
- The canteen/cafeteria is purely veg with optional onion and garlic. Now coming to the infrastructure, we have state of the art elevators with emergency services
Dislikes
- Nothing such, but our college could provide undergraduate research opportunities for science and other subjects with young minds.
Placement Experience:
Students at their final year are eligible for placements for BBA, BCom, BSc (Computer) only as per my knowledge, it may have changed also. I have no such plans after attaining the degree, currently I'm focusing on extra curriculars.
