    Q:   Is B.Sc. at Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru College Of Agriculture And Research Institute worth the investment?

    A: 
    {Source: B.Sc. students & alumni}

    Is B.Sc. at Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru College Of Agriculture And Research Institute Worth the Investment?

    Here's a summary of the key points:

    * Placement Opportunities: While the college does not offer direct placements, some industries conduct walk-in interviews, but there are no guaranteed placements or packages offered. A small number of students (around 40%) secure jobs in various fields, such as fertilizer, seed, and agricultural companies.
    * Course Curriculum: The course provides an overall general view of all sectors, making it easier for students to attend competitive exams. However, some students feel that the course could benefit from fewer theoretical topics and more hands-on experience.
    * Infrastructure: The college has a library, decent classrooms, and well-equipped labs. The hostel renovation is ongoing, and the food quality is being improved. Sports facilities are available, and there are many clubs for extracurricular activities.
    * Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified, experienced, and knowledgeable. However, some students find the coursework challenging, especially during the semester exams.
    * Value for Money: Considering the lack of direct placement opportunities, some students might consider the return on investment to be lower compared to other institutions offering similar programs. On the other hand, the unique infrastructure and faculty might make up for it.
    * Unique Selling Point: As the only government college for agriculture in Pondicherry, PNCRAS offers a distinct advantage for students interested in pursuing careers in government sectors.

    Overall, while the programme has its strengths, potential drawbacks include limited placement opportunities and a somewhat stressful academic environment. Students should carefully weigh these factors before deciding whether the investment is worthwhile for them.

    The college must improve a lot.
    Placements: There are no placements in my college. Few industries conduct walk-in interviews. There are no placements, no package is offered and no internships are offered. The course helps us to get an overall general view of all sectors, so it is easy for us to attend competitive exams.
    Infrastructure: There is a library on our campus and it is useful. Classrooms are a bit old. Renovation is going on in our hostel. The quality of the food in the mess is poor. The management is working on it. We have good sports facilities. We have many clubs for different activities.
    Faculty: The teachers are well qualified experienced and knowledgeable. The course has too much information which can be reduced. It makes the students stressed. Semester exams in our college are quite difficult. Most of the students pass except a few. The percentage may be around 80%.
    Other: This is the only government college for agriculture in Pondicherry. There are many clubs for extracurricular activities.

    It is one of the best choices for students who want to get the best days in their life.
    Placements: Actually, there is no campus selection in this college. However, the teaching and the career guidance are very good that students will get clear information about what to do next after M.Sc or B.Sc. Many of our batchmates have secured seats in M.Sc in ICAR colleges all over India.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure was quite enough here. The facilities were also good. The lecturers were mainly aimed at the practical work, so there were enough lab facilities and equipment. We experienced a lot of practical work and were also involved in that particular work.
    Faculty: The teachers here were well knowledgeable and qualified. The teaching quality is excellent. The curriculum was very relevant. Semester exams were average, and the exams were conducted very strictly. There is no chance to cheat in exams. The timetables are followed very correctly and promptly.
    Other: Many events will be conducted here. Students can get the best life on this campus. The college is very strict, and the rules are very hard. However, it will be one of the best experiences.

    No placements, low Wi-Fi speed, and instruments, tools, and machinery must improve.
    Placements: There are no placements available here. No internship opportunities are provided here. The roles offered for B.Sc. Agriculture are AFO at banks, field office, sales managers, fertiliser shop managers, and all poultry and dairy related jobs. So graduates can start their business in an agri-related field as entrepreneurs.
    Infrastructure: They have decent lab facilities, a classroom, and a library. The college does not have a good mobile signal area, so it is difficult for students to communicate, and the Wi-Fi facilities are there for only staff. Students have only 2 Wi-Fi common areas in the entire campus. They provide only limited speed, and it is not located everywhere.
    Faculty: The teachers are helpful, qualified, highly educated and knowledgeable. The exams are a bit difficult for some particular courses. The students may fail. Over 60% of students fail in specific courses, and they struggle. In every semester, 1 or 2 courses may be challenging for slow-learning students and average learners.
    Other: I chose this course because I thought it would help to build my career and improve myself. This campus has an E grade. A lack of attendance in any course leads to re-registering for the course. My colleague and I personally don't like this type of system. They don't even give medical leave. A student must be provided with medical leave, but this campus marks the student with an E grade even in his medical situation. This must be changed at least. They support extracurricular activities, but they need to have facilities for sports. But this campus has poor indoor game facilities compared to outdoor games. This is a disappointment for those who play indoor games.
