B.Sc (Hons.) in Horticulture - Batch of 2024

3Placements4Infrastructure5Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

It is a very good college for horticulture.

Placements: Around 70% to 80% of students get placed in our college. Our college offers bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degree courses in horticulture.

Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure available for UG students are very good. Hostels are available for girls but not provided because construction is going on.

Faculty: All the faculty members in our college are very good, helpful, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is very good. The course curriculum is relevant. Semester exams are average. The minimum pass percentage is 50%. Practical knowledge provided to students makes them ready for industry.

Other: I chose this course because it has wide scope.

Best university with most qualified professors

Placements: Our studies are still going on and none of the batches has passed from this college as of now, so I can't comment about the placements. Moreover, the placement cell has not been made yet. We can however apply for various government jobs after our graduation. Also, the graduates are called 'doctors', or 'plant doctors' more precisely.

Infrastructure: Some construction work is still going on, therefore, the classes are conducted in temporary infrastructure. Anjanthali and Nilokheri are the two hostels by these names. The hostel is too terrible, but the new campus building is being built right now. Therefore, the new campus infrastructure will be awesome. It will get prepared in the next 2 years.

Faculty: Talking about the faculty, they are the best teachers ever and no one would think the government teachers could teach that well. Exams are conducted very systematically where a minimum of 50 percent of scores are required for passing. The ICAR pattern is followed by this university and all the subjects of ICAR are taught here. Here, the semester system is followed.

Other: Many activities take place on the campus. Also, the scholarships are given i.e. Rs 1200 for girls and Rs 800 for the boys for only the top 25% of total students.
