Remarks
OVERALL COLLEGE IS GOOD BUT DUE TO IT'S RECENT UPGRADATION AS AN UNIVERSITY IT WILL TAKE SOME MORE TIME TO BECOME A LEGENDARY INSTITUTION. IF YOU ARE A SINCERE STUDENT WHO WANTS TO REACH THE TOP ECHELONS OF THE CARRIER THEN THIS INSTITUTION WILL SURELY PROPEL YOU BUT IF YOU ARE SLOW LEARNER THEN IT MAY DISAPPOINT YOU.
Course Curriculum Overview
THE UNIVERSITY FOR SURE HAS ONE OF THE BEST AGRI CURRICULUM IN THE STATE, WHICH IS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LATEST UPDATED SYLLABUS OF AGRI PRESCRIBED BY THE INDIAN COUNCIL OF AGRI RESEARCH. ALTHOUGH THE COURSE (B.SC AGRI) ISN'T YET RECOGNISED BY THE ICAR (which isn't a compulsion) BUT RECOGNISED BY THE UGC (which is a compulsion !!!)
Internships Opportunities
TILL NOW THERE ISN'T ANY PROVISION OF PAID INTERNSHIP FOR STUDENTS OF AGRI & ALLIED SCIENCES BUT SOME TRAINING & FIELD VISITS ARE CONDUCTED IN REGULAR INTERVAL FOR GIVING STUDENTS A WIDER PROSPECTIVE ABOUT HOW INDUSTRY WORKS. BUT PAID INTERNSHIPS ARE PROVIDED TO THE STUDENTS OF MEDICAL, PARAMEDICAL & NURSING COLLEGES OF THE UNIVERSITY IN THEIR LAST YEAR OF CURRICULUM.
Placement Experience
AS I MENTIONED EARLIER (in the topic) THE PLACEMENTS ARE USUALLY A MIXED BAG WITH ONLY MEDIOCRE LEVEL OPPORTUNITIES (and most of the recruiting firms are also of regional level.) ESPECIALLY NOW WHEN THE UNIVERSITY IN NEWLY FORMED IT WILL TAKE IT'S DUE TIME TO COPE UP WITH THE CURRENT RECRUITING SCENARIO. USUALLY PHARMA STUDENTS GETS PAID 2.5-3.5 p.a SAME IS FOR MBA GUYS AGRI & OTHER ALLIED SCIENCES STUDENTS USUALLY FOCUS MORE ON GOVT OPPORTUNITIES & HIGHER STUDIES. ALBEIT MEDICAL & ALLIED SCIENCES COLLEGES HAVE A PROMISING TRACK RECORD OF GOOD PLACEMENTS EVERY YEAR.
College Events
EVENTS ARE AT THE CORE OF THE UNIVERSITY CURRICULUM. ROUND THE YEAR, EVENTS LIKE FRESHERS PARTY, FAREWELL PARTY, COLLEGE FEST, COLLEGE ANNUAL WEEK, COLLEGE FATE OTHER NUMEROUS ACTIVITIES ARE CONDUCTED. STUDENTS AS WELL AS TEACHING STAFF ALSO TAKES PART IN THESE EVENTS WITH FULL ZEST.
Fee Structure And Facilities
THE FEE STRUCTURE IS IN THE MIDDLE SOMEWHERE & ALSO DEPENDS ON THE COURSE WHICH YOU ARE PERUSING. MOST OF THE COURSES IN THE BRACKET OF 2-5 LAKHS (FOR WHOLE COURSE) BUT MEDICAL IS THE EXCEPTION WHICH MAY COST A BOMB, WHERE THE FEE CAN GO AS HIGH AS 40-50 LAKHS OR EVEN MORE !!!
Fees and Financial Aid
FOR A TYPICAL MIDDLE CLASS FAMILY FEE WON'T BE A CONCERN COZ IT'S NOT THAT MUCH EXPENSIVE EXCEPT MEDICAL COLLEGE. THE UNIVERSITY COMES UNDER THE JURISDICTION OF A CITY BASED LARGE PHILANTHROPIC FOUNDATION (SHRI GURU RAM RAI EDUCATION MISSION) SO FEE ISN'T THAT MUCH. BUT SCHOLARSHIPS ARE PROVIDED TO THE STUDENTS WHO HAVE PERFORMED WELL IN ACADEMICS OR NON ACADEMIC ACTIVITIES (like sports & cultural events)
Campus Life
EVERY YEAR ANNUAL SPORTS WEEK IS CONDUCTED WHICH IS THE CULMINATION OF ALL THE SPORT ENTHUSIASTS & STALWARTS. AND FOR CULTURAL ALSO VARIOUS EVENTS ARE ORGANISED ON THE SIDELINES OF EVERY COLLEGE EVENT. AND ONE THING FOR SURE, SGRR LABS ARE FOR SURE ONE OF THE BEST MAINTAINED LABS IN THE ENTIRE REGION. SEPARATE WELL MAINTAINED LABS ARE AVAILABLE FOR EVERY DEPARTMENT. ALONG WITH THAT COLLEGE PROVIDES A GOOD INFRASTRUCTURE FACILITY, WELL MAINTAINED & RICH LIBRARY, HUGE OPEN GROUNDS FOR SPORTS FACILITIES, etc.
Hostel Facilities
THE FACILITY IS PRETTY AVERAGE WITH NOT THAT BAD AS WELL AS NOT THAT GOOD. FOOD QUALITY IS ALSO POOR TO MEDIOCRE. STUDENTS CAN'T USE HEAVY POWER CONSUMING ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES. THE AMENITIES GIVEN ARE ALSO VERY BASIC LIKE A FAN , SOME BASIC FURNITURE,ETC. BUT THE MOST IMP POINT IS THAT, CURRENTLY THE HOSTEL FACILITY ISN'T THAT MUCH DEVELOPED SO MOST OF THE STUDENTS LIVE NEAR THE INSTITUTION IN FACILITIES LIKE PAYING GUEST OR RENTED ROOMS.
Alumni/Alumna
TO BE HONEST, THE ALUMNI NETWORK ISN'T THAT STRONG UNTIL YOU HAVE A PERSONAL CONTACT WITH SOME SUCCESSFUL EX-STUDENTS. BUT A FEW OF THEM DO COME TO THE INSTITUTION REGULARLY TO GUIDE THE INCUMBENT BATCH OF STUDENTS BUT MOST OF THEM ARE LOCALLY BASED. WHEN IT COMES TO THE PRESENT DAY COLLEGE SENIORS, THEY DO HELP A LOT. THE SENIOR-JUNIOR RELATIONSHIP IS VERY CORDIAL & THEY ARE ALWAYS READY TO HELP THEIR JUNIORS.
Exam Structure
ALL THE COURSES ARE DIVIDED INTO SEMESTER SYSTEM 'ving A SEMESTER OF 6 MONTH. AT THE END OF SEMESTER 1-2 INTERNAL EXAMS ARE CONDUCTED AFTER THAT EXTERNAL EXAMS & THEN PRACTICALS & VIVA. FOR AGRI STUDENTS FIELD WORK IS A MUST FOR EVERY SEMESTER.
Admission
EARLIER THE ADMISSION PROCESS WAS SOLELY BASED ON MERIT LIST (W.R.T GOVT RESERVATION PROVISIONS.) BUT IN THE YEAR OF 2017 IT WAS UPGRADED AS A PRIVATE UNIVERSITY (EARLIER P.G COLLEGE.) NOW ON, THE ADMISSIONS ARE GIVEN DIRECTLY ON FIRST COME FIRST SERVE BASIS.
Faculty
THE SENIOR FACULTY OF THE COLLEGE HAS A STRONG ALMA-MATER WITH MOST OF THEM ARE FROM VERY REPUTED AGRI UNIVERSITIES( LIKE GB PANT ARGI UNIVERSITY etc). BUT THE NEWLY RECRUITED FACULTY ISN'T THAT CAPABLE IN TERMS OF STRONG ACADEMIC BACKGROUND & IS ALSO TEMPORARY.
