I am not satisfied, and the college needs to improve extracurricular activities.

Placements: Our college does not provide any vocational-technical courses, so there are no placements. There is Vanijya Mahavidyalaya on the same campus, which provides only vocational courses. Campus placements are poor in this institute. Mainly, students get placements in the fifth or last semester.

Infrastructure: There are 3 hostels in our college. The library is big and has ancient books, new books, magazines and newspapers. Our college is also known for its cleanliness and greenery, and it has many trees. There is a big playground. Our college is known for its beauty because it is on the bank of the river Ganga.

Faculty: The faculty members were of different ages, so they understand the current market demand. They have good contact with alumni students also. All the teachers for our batch are very helpful and have detailed knowledge of the subjects. They guide us in all phases of life.

Other: The syllabus needs to be updated with more emphasis on India literary history. Our college conducts 4-6 activities every year.

A review of Directorate of Distance Education, Patna University.

Placements: There is no placement facility in DDE. It is the cheapest college. Examinations are held on time every year. Performance of the college students is average always. There are no placements for our batch and our senior batches. 0% of the students were placed from this college.

Infrastructure: It's a distant course, so there is no facility of Wi-Fi, classrooms, etc. in this college, but library facility is available. The library is well-equipped with books. There is no canteen facility in DDE, and there are no hostel rooms. A renovation is required for the betterment of college. The college needs to provide at least canteen facility so that whenever we go outside, we can have something in the cafeteria.

Faculty: It's a distance course, so students need to study on their own. Books are provided by the college, and the prices of the books are very cheap. Industrial exposure is provided, and the course curriculum was helpful but not always. More educated teachers are required.

Other: No extra co-curriculum activities are held in DDE, and DDE is going to be closed very shortly. So no admissions of students will be taken from now on.

It is a best platform to complete you desire of education.

Placements: I have never attempted the placements, so I can't say anything about it. But the campus placement of Patna University is very good. Many companies come here and give the opportunity to the students to get their best out of them. Campus placements act as a motivation to the other students.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is very good. Being a distance education provider, all the facilities are available in the college, that are supposed to be in a regular course college. No one can feel the difference between the regular and distance college.

Faculty: The faculty members are very helping. There is a student teacher relationship built where every student can communicate and get their issues resolved. The distance education serves as a platform for us to complete our degree without attending regular college. I am proud to be a part of this college.

Other: The faculty are always a major part of the Patna University. It provides education to many students who are not able to have their regular courses as well as to those students who don't get good marks to go for the top colleges because of the high cut-offs. In a nutshell, I would like to say that it saves the dropping year of the students.

Other: College campus is good. It always organize class room facility. They help us at every problem. But college don't have co-ed facility. That’s why, student doesn't interact with girl, which is not quite helpful to those student who is quite slow with talking girls.

There are good faculty in this college. I think that is the best college in Patna.

Placements: 79% of the students were placed in my course. I also recommend this course for all of you who can trust this college. 70% of students got internships from college in so many big companies. One of the students got a package of 6 LPA and one got the highest package of 9.6 LPA.

Infrastructure: There is every type of facility available here. Like Wi-Fi, labs, clean classrooms, a library, 24-hour electricity, mineral water, etc. But the food quality is a little bit bad and I would not recommend buying food from the college canteen. Also, medical facilities are provided in my college.

Faculty: In this college, every teacher has more than 10 years of teaching experience. And the semester exams are a little bit hard but if you're a good student then it is very easy for you. For the average students, if they maintain their attendance regularly, they see improvements in their performance.

Other: I chose this course and college because this is one of the best colleges in Patna. And my elder brother also passed from this college so I trust this college.

The best university you would ever see.

Placements: 70% of students were placed in my course and the highest package offered was 40 LPA. Airtel, Tata, and Jio are the major recruiters. 80% of students got internships from my course, and they got hired at Jio and many other companies.

Infrastructure: Everything about the infrastructure and facilities was good, like a 3-star hotel. Everything was provided to us in the library. We were given Wi-Fi as well, so we can use the internet for our basic needs. The classrooms were good, and every classroom had one projector. We were also given practical courses.

Faculty: The teaching quality was excellent. There was this notion that if this university were not located in Patna, the teaching quality wouldn't be as good as that is provided in Delhi, but I was proven wrong. Teachers were qualified. The semester exams were little tough here. Approximately 70% of students pass the course.
