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.

Good for student life but no assurance of job.

Placements: There is no placement after graduation. Zero placement. But you can do an MBA in agribusiness management for placement. No company comes after graduation for recruitment. You have to go for higher education like an M.Sc. or Ph.D., or you can go to prepare for a competitive examination.

Infrastructure: The college and hostel infrastructure is good. The hostel and college are equipped with Wi-Fi. Labs and classrooms are well-equipped. Classrooms are equipped with smartboards and projectors. All the classes are in AC. All the students were accommodated in the hostel. Both boys and girls hostels are available. The food is also very good.

Faculty: Semester exams are easy to pass. Teachers are highly qualified and knowledgeable. Some classes are boring. The course curriculum is very updated and relevant. All students pass semester exams easily. Some lectures are very boring. You can get enough time to prepare for other competitive exams.

Other: All events are organized nicely. Connectivity is very good. You can avail scholarship like post-matriculation, matric scholarship, Kalia scholarship, etc. Even the university provides a merit scholarship.

It is a very good college for education.

Placements: There are no placements in this college. Our college does not offer any placements since 2015. I would not recommend students to join this college. You have to compete for AHO, AAO, and AFO posts via entrance exams. Few students also opted for higher studies.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are air-conditioned. Our campus has good environment. Laboratory is well-equipped. Mess is available. Canteen is very good. There is a dispensary on campus. Sports and games are conducted in this college. Wi-Fi is available in our college and hostel. There is a decent library in this college.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful. The teaching quality is better. The course curriculum is relevant to make students ready for the industry. It follows the ICAR course curriculum only. Semester exams are very difficult. The pass criterion is 5.5 CGPA. If we study properly, we can score good marks.

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.
