Being one of the prominent universities in west bengal, University of Burdwan has all kinds of infrastructure facilities and equipments. In the classes projectors, and white and blackboards are there. The library is good and well maintained. It has separate hostel for boys and girls but I never been to the hostel that's why I don't know about that much.
