Academics
I'm studying BBA Honours to gain business knowledge for future business or to support my artistic interests in the future with business knowledge. My major is Marketing, as I really like it.
- Teaching quality is very very poor; except few good faculty, most of them are bad. They lack critical thinking skills, action-taking, basic communication skills, and even subject knowledge sometimes. Poor english speaking skills, repeated common examples for every topic (like Apple, Google, Nike), spreading misinformation as facts, weaponizing attendance if students do anything they don't like, and especially Unprofessional behaviour (like being late to class, and yet scolding students who come a minute later than them). Also, the sheer inability, or unwillingness to discipline students is crazy. Non-teaching staff acts more professionally and sensibly than the teaching professors. All this feedback has been provided to the college, especially to the director, but rarely any action is taken. Instead, when our feedback reaches faculty, they hunt for the student who gave specifically bad feedback, and then attack them with constant taunts, attendance cuts, and even bad internal marks (they say it infront of the entire class).
- Curriculum is frequently updated, but often adds useless subjects with incompetent visiting faculty. Even useful subjects suffer from underqualified professors. The degree makes students job-ready for the low-paying jobs one gets after BBA lol. But yeah, if one focuses on skill-development outside academics, they can get really good jobs after college (not from college placements).
College Infra
Infrastructure and facilities are good; campus is huge, beautiful, well-maintained, with good equipment like computers. Classrooms have projectors on whiteboards, capable PCs; labs are well-equipped and updated whenever needed. WiFi is fast but disconnects very often, on every device. Sports complex: gym, courts, OPD, all are excellent. I'm a localite so not sure about hostels, but they have mixed reviews (as of what I've heard from friends).
Campus Life
Campus life is great actually, with amazing facilities like sports complex, mess, canteen, library and ofcourse academic block. But timings are an issue: Sports complex opens at 3PM, making it useless for localites who want morning gym or lunchtime sports with friends. Cycles are provided for distance between every facility, but they're poorly maintained- flat tires, misaligned handles, etc. are issues on almost every single cycle.
Placements
- Highest package claimed: 8 LPA. Highest package actually seen: 6 LPA (and only 2 ppl got it, no updates this year).
- Placement process is so insanely strict- the session they took for explaining the rules turned into a standup comedy show by how much students (including me) were laughing. Breath incorrectly, and you'll be barred from the placement process.
- Companies that come aren't even that great, still hardly 10% of batch gets placed.
Value For Money
- It costs Rs. 3.5 Lakh per year for Localites, Rs. 7 Lakh for hostelites. With domicile certificate, it's 3 Lakh.
- Definitely not value for money, wayyy too expensive.
- Only upside is meeting good, open-minded, and rich people, compared to other local colleges, but still not worth paying that much.
