This department is progressing in our college.

Placements: As far as my knowledge, there have been no placements in this course for the past 4-5 years. But if the whole batch requests for the recruiting companies to Dean then some ways may appear. Krivco, and Kisan Pro are some of the examples of recruiting companies during the placements era. As I know, Rs. 10,000- Rs. 50,000 salary packages are common.

Infrastructure: Our department is continuing to improve its infrastructure and provide practical labs for Tissue culture, Microbiology, Molecular Biology, and some others. It also owns a library which remains closed maximum times but if possible it is a proper place to utilise the gap period. Unfortunately, there's no Wi-Fi or I haven't identified its Wi-Fi in the department. Classrooms are average, some have defective fans while some have defective benches. There is a smart classroom also but there's is no switch to the inverter or generator during power off. The quality of facilities in our hostel is better than expected. There's a proper eye on hygiene and taste of foods in the mess. The canteen contains very few listed items. Medical facilities are average as there is a dispensary and many students do not find the right option to choose it. Sports and games are also available such as table tennis, shotput, race, kho-kho, etc.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. However, students have to be clear about what they want to study today so that teachers can make a perfect interface with them. Their teaching quality is nice but most of them do not teach in depth. But if you ask for that, then they can. The course curriculum is relevant. Semester exams are not so tricky job. I ensure that if students attend the classes properly, then one night's study is enough to score well and without any cheating (It's tried and tested, so don't worry). The pass percentage is 6 CGPA for non-Bihar and 5.5 for Bihar students.

Other: I chose this course according to my interest in biotechnology topic which covers the way to become a scientist and can provide products and services for nature welfare. Required number of events are organised according to the occasion, and Biotech Meet is one of the fests organised every year. This college also provides a stage to participate in dance, music, and literary events in the way of your interest. It provides scholarships to Bihar as well as non-Bihar if their semester-wise CGPA is above 5.5 and 6 respectively. College campus is so peaceful and there is greenery that every urban-crowdy person dreamed of.
