Bachelor of Veterinary Science (BVSC) and Animal Husbandry (AH) - Batch of 2028

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

College of Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry - A Path Towards Your Dreams and Success.

Placements: This course, which I am pursuing, is Bachelor of Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry (BVSc AH). Last year, 90% of the passing-out students from our college are doing service as Veterinary Assistant Surgeons in Odisha, and some opted for PG and higher studies in this college. The average salary offered here is 70,000. In internships, students are also paid.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very good. There are different buildings for different departments. All buildings are new and equipped with all facilities. There are smart classrooms with nice accommodation. Availability of Wi-Fi, advanced laboratories with recent new technologies, and a library with books on all subjects. There are also hostels for boys and girls. The food quality is of top level, with a restaurant-like taste. Free medical facilities for all. Different sports like cricket, volleyball, football, and badminton are available. Scope for NCC, NSS, and PE.

Faculty: The professors are very helpful, knowledgeable, and qualified with good ranks. Their teaching quality is not comparable with others. Some have received the Best Teacher Award from the University. The course curriculum is nicely managed, and students are really interested and going for the betterment of this profession. Semester exams are easy, and students can score good grade points.

Other: I have chosen this course because I think it is different from others. I have a love for those who cannot tell or communicate with us. I think this profession should be given priority like other medical professions. There should be more seats for students, and internship money should increase. In this college, many conferences are organized, which are at the national level. Veterinary Day is also celebrated. Many tours are also done every year to different parts of India.

I am highly satisfied with the good teaching faculty.

Placements: The highest salary is 10 lakhs per annum, the average salary is 6 lakhs per annum, and the lowest salary is 3 lakhs per annum. Above 72% of students get placed. The top recruiting companies are DuPont India Ltd and Rasi Seeds. The top roles are farm manager and quality assurance. Sixty percent of students got internships.

Infrastructure: The campus provides good hostel facilities with separate hostels for boys and girls. The hostel contains 24-hour hot water, and the food provided is good. We have a beautiful mess that can accommodate around 500 students. The infrastructure is good, and our department has separate blocks. The labs are well-equipped, and a library is also available, along with Wi-Fi.

Faculty: Many faculty members are well-trained and have a lot of experience, with most of them being Ph.D. holders. They possess good knowledge and are all helpful to the students, always clarifying our doubts. The course curriculum is good, and the pass percentage is 68%.

Not satisfied as my expectations were high, but the college is not as I expected it to be.

Placements: In Bhubaneswar, some students got placed, but in Chiplima Agriculture College, no one was placed because students don't want to work in private companies with a wage of 15,000 to 20,000. In our college, students are focusing on UPSC and banking-related examinations, and many students also get jobs every year. Many students are placed under OPSC as Assistant Agriculture Officers.

Infrastructure: In hostels, Wi-Fi is installed and in the college as well. Air conditioning is present in the classrooms, and smart boards are available for writing purposes. The hostel rooms are well-furnished with marble flooring and cupboards with a lock system provided. Each student is given a chair, study table, and bed by the college. In some rooms, one fan is provided, and in others, two fans are provided. Overall, the infrastructure is good.

Faculty: To be eligible as OUAT faculty, one must complete their Ph.D.; after that, they are eligible. Teachers are quite helpful and very knowledgeable, and some faculty members come from research backgrounds. In my opinion, the course is relevant, but it needs some improvement so that everyone can get placed in agriculture-related fields. Semester examinations are not too difficult; one can easily pass.

Other: From my school days, I wanted to take admission in agriculture college as I am from an agricultural family. Placements should be given. A lot of events, programs, campaigns, and competitions are organized in our college. A minimum of 50 to 60 percent of students get scholarships every year, and it is around 20,000 per year.

Really satisfied with the faculty but not so much with the infrastructure. But it is getting better.

Placements: Around 30 students are present in each batch, while placement of our batch still hasn't happened because it's our 3rd year in the college. All the students mostly get enrolled in some kind of internship in different hospitals as nutritionists. Top roles offered are those of nutritionists, researchers, and professors in multiple subjects in the course.

Infrastructure: The college has the availability of all basic facilities of classrooms, labs, a good library, and multiple other constructions for better facilities are going on. The hostel facility is good, with proper medical facilities available and proper space and competition for sports and games.

Faculty: Teachers are really qualified and knowledgeable, and the quality of teaching is really good too. This course is somewhat relevant as it has a good effect on student understanding of the course. Semester exams are more difficult than one would think, while the pass percentage is good.

Other: The best thing about this course is that one gets to study multiple subjects and can follow any one path. I wish they would improve the college infrastructure.

Good campus always encourages good studies.

Placements: There are almost 250 students from every batch. Placement offers are newly added in our college. Both the banking sectors and agriculture sectors are offering the placement. 20-30 percent of the students are selected in the placement interview. Canara Bank and Punjab National Bank are mostly offering the placement to the students, and many other oil SEED companies and agriculture-related companies are also offering the opportunities to the students.

Infrastructure: In our college, they provide Wi-Fi and the latest technology installed in labs. Classrooms are digitalized and have AC-fitted rooms. In our hostels are developing now with new infrastructure. It will look like an old one, but the college is fully equipped with the latest technology, installed rooms, and mechanisms.

Faculty: Faculty and curriculum are mostly favorable to the students, and the teaching faculty are always encouraging the students for studies, sports, and other cultural activities. Faculty will support the students in exam times. Most of the students passed the semester exams. Faculty conduct the practical with students by the farmers. It is most helpful for the students to know about actual farming work.

Other: It was the 2nd old agricultural college in India. Most of the students are holding jobs in banking sectors and civil services.

College is very good in terms of quality of education.

Placements: College is good at providing internships. You will also get a scholarship here, no doubt. BSC and MSc degrees are both available here. Student union formation also takes place here so if a student is interested in a leadership program, he/she can start their career here also.

Infrastructure: Our hostel takes little extra charge than other government colleges, but the quality of food is best here as they provide 3 to 4 days of non-vegetarian meals. And the hostel fees are also good and rooms are being cleaned here . New hostels are continuing to shift students from old to new.
