I am absolutely satisfied with everything.
Placements: There are very few opportunities like placement drives, campus jobs, etc. IFFCO and FIL industries are the main recruiters. Some students got internships at Cornell, some got at fil, and some at Bayer.
Infrastructure: It is an mesmerising campus and an excellent hostel for both boys and girls. Hostel life is excellent with all the basic facilities like water, electricity, playground, lights, books, library, orchards, etc. The quality of food is excellent not to be messed with tasty and nutritious.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is excellent. Experiments are less frequently done for UG. The curriculum makes students somewhat market-ready. Exams are very difficult, hectic, and stressful. Around 98% pass the exams.
Other: I like plants. More jobs, more practical learning, and everything are fine.
