Very Bad Infrastructure for BCA Department.
Placements: Barely any company visits my college for placement. Last year, only TCS came to our college, and 10-12 students got placed. The annual average package you should expect when you get placed anyhow is about 2.5 LPA to 3.7 LPA. Students also got placed in some local companies or startups.
Infrastructure: For the BCA department, we have only one reading room, which is used for classes, and one computer lab. Our department arranges our classes in different departments, especially in the Mathematics department, as BCA in our college belongs to the Mathematics department. Our college has 2 hostels, but I recommend avoiding them, as the buildings are old, and students get very few facilities.
Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified, but they lack in delivering knowledge. The course curriculum is relevant as they have added Big Data and emerging technology in our syllabus. But the sad part is we do not get that environment to become industry-ready. As I have taken admission here just to be eligible for MCA, as I have planned to get into the best college for MCA, which will definitely help in landing a good job. Our college offers the worst infrastructure for our department, but other departments are well. We have a lack of placements too.
Other: I have chosen BCA as I am more interested in technology and computer-related things. Our college conducts different events from time to time.

Bihar National College: A Heritage
Placements: Being a student of Political Science Honors, one can pursue careers in civil services, law, political firms, lecturer roles, NGOs, and social work. The chances of placements are low because it is a traditional course, and there is also no chance for internships.
Infrastructure: It is a traditional course with classes available, and faculties are present every day in the department. There is Wi-Fi across the whole campus. The infrastructure is average, with a canteen, tennis court, basketball court, and badminton court, along with a library and common room for both boys and girls. We have hostel facilities for both girls and boys, but without a mess. There is a lack of access to electricity, safe drinking water, and sanitation facilities.
Faculty: The faculty has good knowledge of the subject, and the teaching quality is good. Exams are held annually, and one has to pay an exam fee of 700 to 750 INR. The passing percentage for exams is an aggregate of 45% in total. We have two honors papers in the 1st and 2nd years, and after the 2nd year, we have eight honors papers along with GK and GS, which is a passing paper. In the 1st and 2nd years, we have two subsidiary papers, which are also passing papers, along with a composition of 50 marks each; English and Hindi are passing papers too.
Other: I was a student of Political Science Honors. We read about politics and political institutions in society. One can pursue careers in civil services, law, and other political institutions, firms, and social work in NGOs. The course should offer some apprenticeships to improve job opportunities. One can also pursue this course through the Bihar student credit card.

Very satisfying because of the faculty and good placements every year, along with really good infra.
Placements: Above 60% of students were placed every year. The highest package is 12 LPA, and the lowest package is 4.6 LPA. Approximately, most students got internships from my course in many companies like TCS, Wipro, and so many others. In the past year, our seniors secured top roles like Software Developer, etc.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very good, and the hostel is well-maintained. In my department, everything is organized properly, and the behavior of our staff is also good with us. Our hostel is very good and well-furnished. There is also a water purification facility, and the mess facility is available in a proper way.
Faculty: The faculty members are very helpful and well-educated. The way of teaching is excellent. The course curriculum is very relevant and makes the students industry-ready. The semester examinations are not so difficult because our faculty team is very knowledgeable and has prepared us well. The minimum pass mark for us is 35%.
Other: I chose this course because, from the beginning, I wanted to enter the IT sector. So, I decided to pursue this course. In my college, there are many events every month, such as annual sports, annual functions, etc. The total fee for my course is not so high due to it being a government college.

Dissatisfied because of management.
Placements: 10% of students were placed in my course. The highest package was 4 LPA, the lowest was 2 LPA, and the average was 3 LPA. Akasa Air and DD National were among the recruiters. About 10% of students got internships at DD National (not confirmed). Top roles offered in my course include Anchor and Management.
Infrastructure: Free Wi-Fi is available, along with a language lab and decent classrooms. There is no department-specific library, but the college library is accessible. Hostel facilities are poor, and the canteen is often closed, with average food quality. Sports and games facilities are also average.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, highly qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is good. The course curriculum is relevant and prepares you for the industry. Semester exams are quite easy, with a pass percentage of around 90%.
