Good university and knowledgeable.

Placements: In my class of 3rd semester, there are 26 students. Course feel is similar to every caste category not different for anyone. Some companies come but less placements. Around 20% of students got internships from our department for an internship program. Biotechnology is the main subject.

It's a very good college under Burdwan University.

Placements: You can join TCS and other very big companies after completing your courses. You can be in mathematical analytics and other government jobs. 75% of students got internships from courses in the company, like TCS, etc. Packages offered are 6 lacs to 12 lacs per year. It's a very great place to prepare yourself for future.

My experience as a student in hmc.

Placements: As per my knowledge The college doesn't offer any placement as they provide normal B.Sc. B.Com B.A. degrees and there aren't many students per class in my class there are probably 20-25 students but there are some courses in which there are many students .

An average government college.

Placements: Since it is a Government College, there are no placements provided. But hard work always pays off and every degree has some value. On a positive note, there are several courses provided throughout the three/four years for the students to develop various skills.

It looks impossible get direct admission in University of Burdwan. You should appear in JEE Mains or WB JEE like entrance exam and also get 45% minimum in Class 12th Board.

No, University of Burdwan doesn't provides any full scholarship for students but students can get Fee Waiver (FW) who have home state domicile and family income less than INR 1.5 Lakhs.

You can get some discount by sports quota.
