Entrance Preview
I got through the Bihar engineering entrance exam. The rank was some where close to 500 and I opted because this was the best college of Bihar.
Course Curriculum Overview
Excellent academics with clear focus on the basics and right blend of practical and classroom teaching. My elective in final year were power plant engineering, Automobile engineering and Industrial engineering. We had to complete one real time project with application of what we had learnt in the class room.
Placement Experience
The opportunities were limited but most of the students got placed through exams conducted by organisations because of their academic strength.
Fees and Financial Aid
I got a scholarship which was good enough to cover all of my expenses.
Campus Life
A decent campus life with mix of all activities . There were different societies for each of the activities and they use to conduct various programmes and competitions. The gender ratio was 100:30.
Hostel Facilities
Although, I was a day scholar as it was my home town but there were enough hosts and good quality mess . The rentals were extremely cheap due to subsidies.
Alumni/Alumna
Had a alumni association which use to have a yearly meet and with all of them sitting in very senior position within Govt and public sector enterprises were able to help a lot directly and indirectly both ways.
Exam Structure
It was an yearly system those days broken into two semesters with two internal and one final exams. A clear 10-4 involvement with first half in class room and second half in labs/ workshops. Some of e days second half was used for sporting activities also. Tough academic schedule with unexpected question pattern in exams making it hard for students and covering entire syllabus was critical to get good grades.
Faculty
Almost all of the faculties were PhD from prestigious institutions with extraordinary academic records. They were specialist and each of the subject had an expert to teach.
