It is the best college for UG and PG courses.

Placements: It is an agricultural university in Jharkhand. There are 4 branches of agriculture, which include Ranchi, Godda, Deoghar, and Garhwa. Placements are not good in our college. If you study in Ranchi, then you may get good placement opportunities. Otherwise, if you study in Garhwa, you may have a low chance to get placements. Our college does not approach placements.

Infrastructure: Our college provides good facilities like a hostel, Wi-Fi, etc. The lab should get improved. Medical facilities are not good. An ambulance is available in our college.

BAU glance and its functioning.

Placements: Placements are not up to the mark. Not many companies visit for campus placements. Only a few students will get placed with a very low package. The new placement cell is active but still major agricultural companies do not visit for campus drive. But an internship is compulsory for last year's students which is provided by the college itself in various companies which is unpaid or paid.

Infrastructure: This college has a decent infrastructure, college is equipped with Wi-Fi and has a well-maintained library which is open till 10 pm for boys and 8 pm for girls. Hostel infrastructure is bad, there is a scarcity of single rooms in boy's hostels and the same in girls' hostels. But the hostel fee is very less so it is adjustable.

Faculty: The faculty is impressive most of them, as they are scientist, the curriculum is very vast, as in each semester we have to study 9-10 subjects which are quite lengthy for a semester, exams are not so hard if we study regularly. But practical is the area which needs to be strengthened.

Other: The fee which I describe here is for 4 years including the hostel fee but excluding the mess fee which is about 3000 per month mess fee.
