Remarks

Because of Counseling,and had no other option left, as the college environment is also good so I choose that, few teachers are supportive and guide us well, except for academics,physical activities are also given importance which includes sports, NCC

Course Curriculum Overview

Well enough,minimum industrial exposure is provided,from IT dept most of the teachers are really very helpful and supportive,and are much concerned about our future.Once you start interacting you get to know more about how helpful they really are!

Class Size: 60Course Fees: INR 42000 per year

Internships Opportunities

Not yet,as for now I am in second year,and am learning programming and increasing my skills

Placement Experience

2.5

Not so good,not so bad,Capgemini, Congizant,Reshmi LTD,Extramarks,Byju's come for on-campus placement, else for more opportunities you need to apply for off-campus

College Events

4.5

Things are not as extraordinary as compared to IITs and NITs,but yes you will really enjoy tech fests specifically the robotics part, quiz,xpose, and gaming,around 500+ students participate in tech fests.

Fees and Financial Aid

Government loan facility is available I guess,Bihar Board students have the loan facility from bihar government, as per my knowledge

Campus Life

Every thing is all right,the campus may be considered as bit smaller than other colleges, but sports,wifi academies, labs are well enough,library is big enough and has a large collection of different books

Hostel Facilities

Yes,Hostel is clean and airy,rooms are large enough to accommodate 4 people's, provide food 4times a day,as you know hostel food wont ever be that homie, well,once you start living their you will get habituated.

Hostel Fee: INR 30000 per year

NOT RECOMMENDED

Likes

Campus is nice. There's greenery and all
SOME of the faculties are really good and those said teachers will actually look out for you and care
Mentors are appointed for each students who are responsible for their final year project, publications and LORs. If you are lucky, you'll get a good mentor.

Dislikes

Classrooms are less compared to the number of students. Students have to wander around the building after each classes to find seats. Classrooms are very dirty
There's literally NOTHING in the labs. Experiments take way long to prepare and perform because reagents and equipments are never available.
Hardly a 2 week summer break (because of MAKAUT). Students cannot even apply to good internships because no lab would take in external students in july or august.

Placement Experience:

People who major in my department usually opt for masters over placement not because of this college but because overall industrial or academic opportunities are better with a pg degree. Masters from this college is not recommended as i have heard so from my seniors. Some of my seniors managed to crack competitives and secure MSc seats at great places. Training and Placement cell had a good coordinator previously but now its almost non existent. Companies do come and hire Bpharm, Mpharm and MSc candidates. Packages are below average. Only Nestle pays well. But if you do well you'll eventually climb up the corportate ladder. From the time i am here i have not heard of any BSc candidate getting placed. Most go for higher studies.

Campus life: Hype vs Truth

Likes

The discipline is followed very strictly.Also you have access to library which is good,teachers are helpful and no ragging policy which is strictly followed and has a decent environment.
Thery conduct seminars which encourages students.Many faculty members are knowledgeable experienced in their respective subjects and helpful willing to solve doubts beyond the classroom also.
The college has decent infrastucture including classrooms,labs and library .

Dislikes

While the curriculum is decent ,it lacks sufficeint practical implementation.More hands on projects,real world application and industry exposure would improve learning significantly.
Campus life can sometimes fell limited in terms of active student interaction.Opportunites for clubs,networking and collaborative activities could be improved.
The college comes under St tHomas School so the campus is not great it is compact and has a canteen.

Placement Experience:

I heard it from seniors that before lockdown it was pretty decent but after lockdown the company visits are not that much comapred to before lockdown.Cognizent, Accenture, Mindtree, PQ360 which is a startup company of our senior alumni etc. visits.

Here effective teaching methods and are always available for guidance.
The campus environment is student-friendly, with healthy academic atmosphere.
Buliding a strong Foundation for higher studies and PSC preparation

Dislikes

Classrooms are sometimes overcrowded, the library has limited updated resources.
Placement support is minimal for courses like History.
There is limited digital access - poor wi-fi Connectivity and lack of e-library facilities.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum is relevant and theory-rich, ideal for further academic pursuits like UPSC and PSC. I chose History Honours for its analytical depth. Exams are semester-based, moderate tough. Teaching can improve with more discussions and digital learning tools.
