What Students Say
Likes
- I like the campus of Bhavan's college. It is very huge and full of greenery.
- The infrastructure is admirable as huge and specious buildings are alloted for various departments. There is an in built xerox shop in the campus itself which makes things easy. There is a botanical garden in the campus as well.
- The crowd is very friendly at Bhavan's. Various departmental , inter departmental as well as other fests and competiotns are held occasionally.
Dislikes
- The management needs to improve. Many official notices are posted on the last moment creating chaos.
- The curriculum is too theoretical. Some practical aspects are major missing.
- The facaulty particularly for BMM fails to provide personal guidance.
Course Curriculum Overview
I am a second year student in Bhavan's college in the BMM department. During my admissions after 12th , when i looked up for curriculum in Bhavan's a certain subjects like Mobile content creation and photography lured me as they are easily applicable in practical work plus they are in demand in todays media field. The current curriculum is 85% theoretical according to me as only one subject that is theatre studies is practical. Hence the application of current syllabus in real life is questionable. However , it can be useful if one opts for Post graduation. The area where the curriculum needs to improve is to add more practical knowledge and teaching methods should be more interactive. In context of frequency of exams, only 2 end sem exams plus internal exams for 2 credit subjects are conducted. The difficulty level can be rated as mediocre.
Fees and Financial Aid
The fee structure for BMM department is Rs 25214 for Second year. It was approximately similar for first year as well. This is particularly for general category students. There is no fee hike as such. The only other compulsory charge is application fees which is Rs 220/- . The only financial aid provided is for reserved caste students.
Campus Life
Bhavan's college holds an annual fest named O2 in the month of December. There is a wide range of books available in the library. Sports such as cricket are promoted in the college and inter college matches are held as well.
Admission
The eligibility includes a candidate to be passed out from any certified board from India from standard 12th. The application form can be found on the college website itself. There is no entrance exam for Bhavan's. However an entrace for BMS course would be starting from 2025. The portal of application form must be reviewed as it glitches a lot
Faculty
There are particularly only 4 professors for BMM department. The faculty to student ratio is hence 4 : 180. The approach of faculty towards teaching is totally theoretical. There is a lot of bias towards specific students. Interactions with professors happen often even outside the classrooms but they fail to provide essential personal guidance. There are particular professors who are unapproachable due to their nature. However when it comes to providing study material, the professors are very particular and punctual. Study material like relevant websites , books and notes made by professors are provided for each subject.
Other Applied Colleges
Ramnarain Ruia Autonomous College | Bachelor of Mass Media [B.M.M.]
Ramnarain Ruia Autonomous College had fees which was out of budget for me as Iam an outstation student. Hence I opted for an affordable option which was Bhavan's College.
