    Overall, it's a good college, if infrastructure is neglected.
    Placements: The first batch of this course in our university didn't pass out yet, so I can't say about placements. From the main campus, the placement rate is good. All the students are provided with adviser, and under their advisory, any individual can fulfill his dream of becoming whatever he/she want to become.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure is not much mesmerizing, it's just below average. The faculty members are awesome, and your overall experience will be fine. This branch of Dr. Y. S. Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, Nauni Solan, was established in the year 2018, and right now, we don't have our own infrastructure, but PRTI, Thunag, has given some of their buildings to us.
    Faculty: The faculty members are young and energetic. They are well-qualified and knowledgeable. The course is of 4 years (8 semesters). We have 8-10 subjects per semester. Every semester, we have mid-term exams, practical exams and end-semester exams.

    I am dissatisfied with faculty members, curriculum etc. Friends are the only support system.
    Placements: Our college provides low placements. It has a wonderful natural environment but not the same in the case of studies. Involvement of politics in the education stream has lowered the standards of education, Introduction of courses has narrowed the education quality, and the knowledge is confined to these offered courses.
    Infrastructure: Old hostels are great, but the new ones are just extended cubicles. Monkeys enter the hostel, and there are leaking ceilings, acoustic ceilings which raises a question on one's privacy. Overall a below-average experience. It's impossible to study in hostels. One may do anything except to study.
    Faculty: Teachers of our college are mostly awful, except a few. Course curriculum in worthless since there are almost no placements and some subjects are just pointless and wastage of time. Teachers are more into political discussions. Students are acquainted with more of theoretical knowledge rather than practical part.
    Other: I opted this course because I am from a horticulture background. I wanted to enhance my knowledge in this field regarding various techniques and production technologies available.

    The college placements are average but better opportunities after PG courses.
    Placements: The students of this course mainly focus on government jobs, but the post-graduation required only before professional jobs. The highest salary offered is Rs. 1,50,000 per month, the lowest salary offered is Rs. 20,000 per month and the average salary offered is Rs. 25,000 per month. Food and fruits related companies are top recruiting companies. Top roles offered are agricultural officer, horticultural officer, food inspector, etc. The internship offered is more like industrial training of 1 year to students.
    Infrastructure: The college provided all proper facilities with proper equipment. There are appropriate classrooms available in the college, and there is a good playground in the college. The college has a good infrastructure. There is an average hostel. The food provided is average. There is a medical area in the college. The college provided good sports and games facilities. Overall the college is good for the mental and physical growth of students.
    Faculty: All the professors here are PhD level of their field of command with proper research and development records. Teaching quality of teachers is good, but students have to study more by themselves. The course curriculum is not relevant, which is the reason PG courses are almost like compulsory to study only B.Sc., and it doesn't make students industry-ready.
    Other: I choose this course because it is a different course. It gives knowledge of food and fruits around us and to grow them. The course should be more practical based. The college conducts many cultural, youth, festival, sports, etc. events throughout the semester.
