College of Veterinary & Animal Sciences B.V.Sc Review By Naman Chowdhari

College of Veterinary and Animal Science is one of the 8 colleges of GB Pant University. I am currently the fourth year student here. I got admission with the exam by GB pant university. I was an OBC student, so I got admission here with a merit of 57. There are two sections of my batch in BVSc. One has to score rank under 60 in this entrance exam to guarantee their seat in BVSc program. Admission process started after the result and counseling. For the admission process you have to visit the campus although result and counseling can be done online. The age limit of this course is pretty flexible because I have seen students in my course who are 4-5 years older than me and came here after their graduation from some program.

In BVSc it is considered that most of the learning is based directly on practical aspect, which I found true in numerous cases. As of now our study is being conducted online. Even then teachers are teaching good and in a very engaging manner. Before this Pantnagar was always a good place to live and study. Moreover there are many labs and animals present that you can enjoy this course completely without any problem. Also in our university you will see most of the places have been designed in complete dedication for BVSc course. The course goes semester wise, each semester you have to give 3 exams only per subject to clear the semester.

Faculty and staff members of our course were very helpful. In labs and other places, they coordinate with students very well and even though we don’t know anything about that lab, the lab staff and professors never let us down and taught us. To each group of 5-6 students, one advisor is allotted, who is also among the professors of our university. The advisor deals with the problems of students, and informs them of important events that will be happening. If you have to take a leave from your hostel, you have to inform your advisor and goes only after his/her permission.

During placements enough companies come here for giving out opportunities. Many students plan to not join company rather go for government jobs and army. Army jobs for BVSc students come very handy. Also many students prefer to go for MVSc to do higher studies which is also a very common option here. When your degree comes to end, in the last hour one before last semester, you are given internship. In internship either you’re placed in any government hospital or some areas of college which is equivalent to that. There is a good chance you will get placement, as each year maximum percentage of students have acquired placements.

If you see Pantnagar from Google maps you will see it is in semicircle shape and our college lies very near to middle of that. Behind our colleges there are many hostels placed in a line. Our college students all seniors and juniors resides in one Hostel. The hostel quality for boys hostel is good not very nice, as the building is very old but has been renovated recently. Sweeping facilities are regular in the morning. Each morning a sweeper will do brooming in the corridor. The food quality is nice, sometimes very good and sometimes average. There are always 2-3 guards on the gate and hostel manager at office or sometimes you will see hostel warden too.

The infrastructure of our college is very close to a modern college. The building here is old, but few building has been recently renovated or new buildings constructed. The entire land area is enough hangouts and has fun. You can get your free wi-fi inside the campus by applying for it in the CCF that is like the cyber café of our university. There is a massive university library and one college library. Also the stadium is nearby to our hostel, where you can find so many sports. There are many small cafeterias in the campus.

If you plan to join this college, and you have cleared this entrance then joining it will be totally worthy. Living here in Pantnagar in this beautiful city fully green and amazing is itself a privilege. Apart from its green and fresh environment there are so many learning opportunities you will be getting from clubs, societies and numerous events that will be happening here. Especially when it comes to fest it is a great place to visit and have fun with your friends. I have made so many friends in fests that have always been there to have fun, so it’s a great thing if you’re enjoying in college fests.
