Review of Visva Bharati University.

Placements: Direct placements for agriculture graduates are very rare in ICAR-accredited colleges. Less than 10% of students go for placements in different agro-based companies. Tata Rallis was one of the primary recruiters, and the main roles provided for students were as sales agents, field officers, etc.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities for our coursework were very sophisticated. Students could easily access smart classrooms, a laboratory, Wi-Fi, and a library with a reading section. Our hostels were fully covered with Wi-Fi services. There was a gym, a TV room, a reading room, and a guest room. Medical facilities were available 24X7. We could play both indoor and outdoor games. The mess of the hostel was owned by the students themselves. The food quality was very good.

Faculty: Our teachers were highly qualified and knowledgeable. The relationship between teachers and students was very good. They were always ready to extend their helping hands when we, the students, required them. The course curriculum was very practical and relevant to the agriculture-dominated society. Students feel a bit of pressure at the time of semester exams. The pass percentage was 99.99%.

Other: Agriculture matters to the future's development, and there were plenty of opportunities after the completion of the course. Viva Bharati was the place of culture. The college hosts numerous events, festivals, and cultural programs.

Bad placements right now.

Placements: No one from our batch was placed. One company, PI Industry, came for placement, but the number of vacancies was too low, and only three students were placed, and they were PG and Ph.D. students. So, from a placement point of view, this is not a good college for students looking for a job after graduation.

Infrastructure: The facilities provided at our institute are very good, and the infrastructure is remarkable. All classrooms are air-conditioned. When I was a student, the hostel facilities were not good, but now new students are allotted to another hostel with better infrastructure and facilities.

Faculty: The teachers here are very helpful and polite. The quality of teaching is excellent, and they are very helpful and friendly during practical field classes. The curriculum is well-designed and relevant to future research work at the M.Sc. and Ph.D. levels. The semesters are quite manageable if you follow the class notes.

Other: I've always wanted to do research on agriculture because I come from an agricultural family. I've enjoyed the course very much, especially the hands-on learning in the field and with farmers. There are events held almost every month, and the campus life is great, especially the natural setting.

This college is really good and helpful.

Placements: Ya, some agro-based industries come here for placement purpose. But, vacancies for those companies are very less, approximately not more than 10 in any of the placements. Packages are good. Most of the roles are marketing executive officer or like that.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is very good. Also, the accessibility is very good as it is situated near the BHS stand or just 4-4.5 km away from the railway station. So, connectivity-wise, there was no problem. Hostels are good. Lots of hostels are there. Rooms are spacious and airy.

Faculty: Teachers are excellent here. They came from top universities. Some of them are also gold medalists. Staff is very helpful. Yes, the course curriculum is relevant. Semester exams are also good. 99% of students passed those semester exams. Semesters are also taken on a regular basis.
