Hey Madhvi
As far as the placement after BSc goes there is no subject in BSc after which you will immediately get placed (in most cases you will have to do a Msc be it in microbiology or physics or mathematics). As far as only bsc is concerned there is a placement cell in college for namesake. Students have to wait for government job as private sectors are not good enough. Salaries are good however the job opportunities are low. Most companies which the college has shown in the brochure do not come for any placement. If you are going just by the placement then this college might not be your type but the faculty here is good and there are extra curricular activities too which can help you grow. The fees structure is also quite affordable considering that it is an agriculture college. Also there are certain sections in Banking where they hire only BSc agriculture candidates. It is your choice, which direction you want to steer your life. All the best.
The fees structure for the undergraduate, postgraduate, diploma and doctoral courses varies from a total of Rs 17,500 to Rs 1,08,000, and the SKUAST Jammu MBA fee for the duration of 2 years is Rs 69,750 for general category candidates.
