Good university to go with especially for M.A. in History
Placements: The placement record of the university is quite good. They give placement to the students having a good percentage with associated companies like Infosys, Tech Mahindra, etc. 55% of the students are placed after an internship of one year. The highest package offered is 47 lakhs per annum. The average package offered is 3.5 lakhs per annum.
Infrastructure: The college had good infrastructure but not the best. Generally, the lack of facilities like lighting and the congested atmosphere is a serious issue regarding labs and classrooms. The sports room is good and contains the required equipments. The canteen is good but not satisfactory with the mess services. Old furniture needs to be replaced in the university halls.
Faculty: The faculty is very much experienced and students are having no problem with them. They are very much interactive with the students and believe in creative learning. The faculty is of the ratio of 100 students per teacher. The faculty members are well qualified. Students do get industry exposure. But the else depends on the students how they manage the studies. The course curriculum was useful to me.
Other: I studied at Pandit Ravishankar Shukla University, Raipur which is in Chattisgarh. It was a two year MA in English course. I would say the university is really good and the faculty is very much experienced. The overall campus of the university is Wi-Fi enabled and contains student hostels and canteens. The infrastructure of the university is alright but not very good.
