Course Curriculum Overview:

My course- is Ancient Indian History, Culture and Archaeology. BHU has the largest faculty strength (34) of AIHC in the whole nation. The student-teacher ratio is also good. And are quite easy to pass. Midterm exams and semester exams ate the two main tests.

Remarks:

I had my high school with Biology stream. I moved to BHU for a better hold in Arts. Eligibility of course - Class 12 from any recognized board. Application is streamlined by CUET- UG. Application fees are decided by NTA annually. Reservation- Seats are reserved for various categories. Physically challenged students compulsorily get a hostel. The admission process is good. But they should maintain regular contact with students while admission.

Placement Experience:

The placements are not so high from BHU but still, there are many edtech companies and coaching institutes which are interested in bhu msc mathematics students. The coaching institutes like Allen, Aakash, and resonance have shown their interest in a placement. Most students in Bhu prefer to pursue higher education in mathematics like a PhD. I am also planning to pursue PhD in mathematics.

Remarks:

For admission in the Msc-mathematics course, students have to clear cuet-pg exam conducted by NTA every year. The eligibility for BHU Msc-mathematics is 50% marks in B.Sc. (Hons)/B.Sc. (10+2+3) as well as at 10 & 10+2 examinations. The application can be found on the official website of NTA. generally, application forms start in March-April. All the reservations provided by the Indian government are available as well as 10% of seats are reserved for BHU old students.

Placement Experience:

In 3rd year ( 6th sem), placement drives take place on campus. Those who take foreign languages like French, German, etc as honors are offered placements by various companies like Amazon, Reliance, Zomato, etc. There is a placement team which helps students find jobs and internships. Salary packages vary from 4-5 lakh p.a. But if you are pursuing UG courses in subjects like English, History, Geography, etc you usually don't get a chance for placement. I am pursuing B. A with English as honors. There was no official placement drive in my department and I intend to pursue a PG course in English.

Remarks:

The year I took admission i.e. 2020, BHU held its own UET(University Entrance Test) for UG & PG Courses. For BA (Hons) courses, you need to be 12th passed irrespective of stream. "bhuonline.in" is the official website of BHU, and there you can apply for various UG & PG courses. But Starting in 2021, admission to BHU is through the All India CUET (Central University Entrance Test). This means, Now you can apply for courses in BHU through CUET only.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course as I want to build a career in Literature and the University is quite reputed and has a good ranking. The faculty-student ratio is not adequate. It's 1:60 on average with some streams exceeding 70 students per teacher. The faculty has one good quality in common, they are all interested in teaching and good with it. The one quality that would have lighted it up as if they put in more effort to create an environment of learning and not provide just exam-centred structures. They are qualified teachers although these few years a lack of professors has made our college allow assistant professors to take up classes which is not the most amazing experience.

Remarks:

To get admitted to BHU for any course there is an entrance examination. Earlier BHU conducted its own entrance but from 2023 students have to clear the cut-off of the Central University Entrance Test(CUET) conducted by the Government for all Central Universities. One can find the entrance exam form, dates and fees with all the guidelines on the CUET website. I belong to the general category, therefore, I availed the girl student benefit. Other benefits can be availed by the respective categories on submitting the required proofs. The improvement most required is constant official news to be released on the website regarding the dates of results, counselling and the rest of the process. It should be completed within a stipulated time period. The management should handle the technical and other faults more effectively to save the students from stress and uncertainty.

It's not that you have to take a job in the course you are pursuing, placement cell has made a group & you can get many job offers & oppurtunities there & get selected. Min is 5 LPA. 80% placement occurs & rest goes for higher studies. I will be clearing CAT & take admitted to any of the B-Schools for an MBA in Hospital Management. But among the IIMs, only IIM Jammu offers MBA in hospital management. One can also pursue MBA in other streams.

Ques
What is the hostel fee at BHU including mess charge and everything?

● Top Answer By Payal Gupta on 16 Feb 23

Ans
Firstly, the hostel fees at BHU vary from course to course. So all I can do is give you a rough estimate through the information I got from my sister who pursued B.Sc from BHU. Hostel Fees 1st semester stood: INR 2666 2nd, 4th, 6th, and 8th semester: INR 1290 (regular fee and hostel fee both) 3rd, 5th, and 7th: INR 3190 (regular fee and hostel fee) Mess Charges:  INR 40 for a simple diet INR 60 for special INR 80 for chicken Usually, there are 2 diets a day and on Sundays, there is only one diet. But the Sunday meal is special so it is counted as a double diet. So the approximate price stands at INR 80-100 per day. If you skip the meal or go home then you can tell Mess Maharaj and you won’t be charged.

Ques
Which is better BHU or DU?

● Top Answer By Anumita Sinha on 13 May 22

Ans
To say, one of these is better than the other will be an oversimplification. You should choose BHU or DU based on the course you are interested in. Here is a streamwise comparison of DU and BHU.  Arts - For English and Economics, DU is better. BHU courses are better for Sanskrit, Hindi, Geography, and Philosophy. For the rest of these subjects, these institutes are at a similar level.  Science - BHU is slightly ahead for most of the science stream.  Commerce - For commerce courses, DU is definitely better.  Engineering - It won’t be fair to compare IIT BHU with DU. The former is way ahead of the latter.  Management - FMS is a tier 1 B-School and arguably the best non-IIM school in the country. IMS BHU ranks nowhere near FMS.  Law - For law degrees, DU has a slight advantage because of its location.  Medical - IMS BHU is one of the best medical institutes in the country.  Academics are more or less the same at BHU and DU. However, big names like St. Stephens, SRCC, LSR, etc. are a little ahead of BHU in terms of teaching quality. BHU offers better research facilities, especially for science courses. DU is way ahead of BHU in terms of corporate jobs and civil services.  BHU offers a better campus experience compared to DU. But if we talk about location, choosing a metropolitan city, that too Delhi will be more advantageous. You will have greater exposure and opportunities.  If you are getting into one of the top colleges at DU. You should go for it. If you are getting an average college, it’s still better to prefer DU for Commerce, Economics and English. BHU science faculty is good. If you are interested in a Science degree, you can choose BHU.

Hows the hostel life at BHU?

● Top Answer By Ashok Sinha on 19 Jul 22

Ans
BHU offers an enviable hostel life. The hostels are within walking distance from class, library, hospital, playground, gym, and pool. There are 24*7 WiFi facilities available on campus. BHU hostel fees are nominal. Students are required to pay around INR 4500 per year.  Many events and festivals are celebrated in the hostel. What makes the BHU hostel experience more special is the people. You will get to share your experience with people from different social backgrounds. Memories of arranging events together, the adrenaline rush of the night before examination, 2 am walks on the campus, you will get to make many such unforgettable memories.

How is the life at BHU?

● Top Answer By Sumit Chetri on 29 Aug 22

Ans
BHU offers a vibrant campus life. Many cultural events and extra-curricular activities take place around the academic year. You will hardly find a day without any such activities happening on campus.  The campus is huge and lush green. BHU offers excellent facilities to students such as the university library, many cafeterias, various clubs, etc. Food offered at the mess is average. IIT offers better food in comparison. Bus services are available for students. Having a personal bi-cycle, scooter, or bike will be helpful, in commuting.  The academics offered by BHU are good and the professors are helpful. The examinations are easy in general but you will have to put in extra effort, to secure good placements.
