The students, faculty, staff and everyone is good and sociable and friendly.

Placements: I'm new here; I don't know that much. But maybe from 5th or 6th semester students are eligible for campus placements, as per the faculty members; many companies visited the university. As per the college site, 90% of students get placement. I don't know that much about internships at the university, but as per the seniors, students had a positive experience. Some students have secured internships with companies like Wipro, HDFC, and the Aditya Birla Group.

The students, faculty, staff—everyone is good, sociable, and friendly.

Placements: In the 2nd sem, college gives the opportunity to join an internship at VI company, and in the 3rd semester, one more internship is offered. College internships allow us to earn money by doing that simple internship. The internship is from the college. In this college, there is less placement for all the branches. To be eligible to give an interview, you must have above 75% in 12th and never failed in exams. In each exam, you need 8+ CGPA. After this, you will be eligible for an interview.

Overall best university for M.A. in Sanskrit course.

Placements: A student needs a minimum percentage of 82% to be placed in my course. There is no salary because this is a government university. If we score well in exams then we will get high-paying jobs. Top recruiting companies are American Express, Mahindra & Mahindra, Infosys Technologies Ltd, etc. Top programs are teaching, creative, etc. Around 70% of students get employment opportunities.
