The course curriculum is updated recently in the year 2023. It follows the same syllabus as the SPPU. however the syllabus is more theory oriented rather than practical interactions.

And also guides students for there future
The college does have a placement cell. It provides some in campus placements . Rarely 2% students get in campus placements. Rest have to find jobs pn their own. You wi have to do alot of interships and gain practical skills to be placed
Read Full ReviewBiology and chemistry were my favourite subject so i have decided to perceive the masters in both the field collectively. Biochemistry was the best course to do so. One of the major reason to choose this university was the faculty. As they are having world class faculty having vast experience in respective fields. My department is autonomous so the exams were held on time, which was also reason that difficulty level was quite high.
There are high chances of placement as it is very prestigious institute. University have independent placement cell for each department. Various companies visits each year. Even facilities have such connections that there recommendations are enough for the job even if you are not selected in campus placement.

This is our first BCA Batch in our college so I don't have any idea about placement and internships but as my past experience don't depend on college for placement and internships. gain skills and try walk-in interview.
Read Full ReviewI am doing my career in finance sector that's the reason I am doing bcom as a side course which will support me in future. As a CA student you must have graduation degree as a side option and commerce is my side of interest.
Actually no placement or jobs provided by college. But some faculty share the difference opportunities for jobs by there own connection. As I am doing CA so I am planning to do MBA and after that looking for job as a Chartered accountant so I am not dependent on college placements .
