Realistic view of UUHF VCSG.

Placements: There are no such placements provided by the institution; you have to do it on your own. Many of our alumni are in the banking sector, government jobs or the cooperative sector. There is no source of placement. Many students do internships after college completion .

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is not available in hostels, labs are not that well equipped with the instruments and the library is not that big but you will find relevant books and the food in hostels is average. The average medical facility is also on the college campus .

Faculty: Teachers are okay—not that friendly but some teachers are really nice. No fest is organized by the college; only freshers are organized, and sports meets are conducted by a student group, Fosecon. Semester examinations have a moderate pass percentage; a percentage above 60% is good .

It does not provide placements since the establishment of this university.

Placements: In this college, placements are not provided. The average salary package offered ranges from 6 LPA - 8 LPA. This university is still not affiliated with ICAR.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is not well furnished but laboratories, and smart classrooms are there. The library is also there but there are not sufficient books. The mess is cooperative and the food is average. There is no big market in this college.

Faculty: Teachers are very supportive, helpful, and knowledgeable. A lot of curriculum activities are happening there. Exams are much tough as students thought the entrance exam is easy so the semester exam will be like it but the figures are the opposite.

Other: This is one of the great batches of the history of this college. Here is a lot of struggle for Hindi medium students especially in semester 1st.

Completely satisfied with the study but it lack in exposure.

Placements: There are no placement opportunities at this college. Students generally go on to higher studies or prepare for government jobs in various sectors. Students interested in private sector employment have to approach companies on their own. The college has a placement cell, but there are currently no placement facilities. However, this may change in the future.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure at this college is not that great, but it is manageable. The hostel is quite good, and students have access to volleyball and badminton courts. However, these courts are for recreational use only. The food in the mess is only so-so, so don't expect much.

Faculty: Teachers are well qualified, knowledgeable and so helpful to students. The teaching culture and method are the same as in school so for that it is quite good as they try to focus on every student. The course is good if you are seeking an entrepreneur opportunity in the field of agriculture.

Our university is satisfactory with good faculty, studies and beautiful hill environment.

Placements: It's a government college. They are trying their best, but presently, I will say that the placements are very least or nil. If you want to start your own business, you should definitely take B.Sc. Forestry. This is the first thing our teacher taught us while taking forestry. Placements are very low. You have to fight the competition for private and government jobs.

Infrastructure: Our university has 3 colleges. They are College of Forestry in Ranichauri, Tehri Garhwal and College of Horticulture in Bhasara, Pauri Garhwal. They all have good infrastructure in terms of classrooms and hostels. In addition, there is one more college which is under progress for many years. It is College of Agriculture in Chirbatiya, Rudraprayag.

Faculty: Faculty members are very good. Teachers are available for every course. All are very intelligent and cooperative. Faculty members are available for forestry and horticulture, but for the agriculture branch, faculty members are not available for some subjects. But, the institution provides guest teachers until any suitable faculty is appointed.

Other: People in Uttarakhand used to think that Pantnagar University is the only university in Uttarakhand which offers the course B.Sc. Agriculture, but that's not true. Our university added B.Sc. Agriculture course in 2015. College of Agriculture has been built completely yet. It is under construction, so the students study in College of Forestry. They share the hostels with forestry students, but classes run differently. There are only 20 seats for Uttarakhand students, 7 seats for the students of other states and 3 of ICAR are available for agriculture, 30 seats for horticulture and 30 seats for forestry (+other state+ICAR).

Love it bcz of it's lovely environment and highly dissatisfied because of their placement facilities

Placements: Their is no placement opportunities in this campus. You can either go for your Masters in this filled or else in your interested field. But college do not have any connection with recruiting companies. They need to improve their placement field for the students.

Infrastructure: Hostels are average you have to live 3 students in one room. Library is very good. Also the College environment is very good and peaceful for study perspective. Their is mess in the hostel and also 2 3 canteen and medical emergency also available. And playground.

Faculty: Teachers is good and now the new faculty members are also appointed that almost change the College environment. The semester exams is external means the paper come from outside and check also outside. But the exam is not too difficult. Also their is tour in almost every sem for exposure.

College is located in the forests of Garhwal Himalayas and is good for study.

Placements: There were no placements offered from our college, but it provides good knowledge and an honors degree to students. Students get scholarships according to their performance in the batch. They receive money as a scholarship, but no placement is facilitated by our college.

Infrastructure: Wifi, labs, classrooms, playground, library, all facilities are available in college. There is a large playground with a gym in between. Good wifi facilities are available in the hostel and college, and a large library is also there. A mess facility is available in the hostel with good food.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and provide good knowledge to students. Teachers in the college are highly skilled in their respective subjects, and field knowledge is also provided by them. The teaching quality is very good. Yes, the course curriculum makes students industry-ready, and the semesters are also balanced—not too hard, not too easy.

Other: I chose this course because I love forests and nature. The best thing about our course is that it provides useful knowledge related to forests and the environment, making it very interesting to study. Events, fests, and other activities are also held at the college on time and are very enjoyable.
