Central Library

The Central Library is one of the largest libraries of the country. It was established in the Telang Hall of the Central Hindu College in the Kamachha campus of the University in 1916, with a small but precious collection donated by Professor P.K.Talang. Nurtured in its infancy Bu the renowned historian Sir Jadunath Sarkar, it had eminent scholars of the library science like Dr.S.R.Ranganathan, the father of Library movement in India, as its Libraries.
The Central Library changed its location to present building, in 1941, situated in the main campus.

Faculty of Science Training & Placement Cell (since, 1996)

Details of the Training & Placement Cell.

The Training and Placement Cell in the Faculty of Science was initiated by Prof. D. K. Rai, in the year 1996-97, in the capacity of Dean of the Faculty. He made Prof. R. Balaji Rao as Incharge of the Training & Placement Cell and appointed a committee consisting of one member from each department. Prof. Balaji Rao continued up to 2001. In June 2001 Prof. T. R. Rao from Chemistry department was made Incharge. I (Prof. S. B. Rai) took the charge in July 2006. During the earlier regime there was no sitting space (room) by the name of Training & Placement Cell. By the help of Prof. B. D. Singh the Dean Faculty of Science and currently as Rector Banaras Hindu University could get small space in Dean�s office of the Faculty for the office of Training & Placement Cell. We were also given Xerox, Typing, Telephone and internet facilities and a part time clerk to help us in day to day work. Earlier 50 to 100 M. Sc. students particularly of Chemistry, Computer Science, Statistics, Physics, Maths could get job through campus interview. However the situation has improved since last three four years and this number has gone up to 200. We have now large number of companies visiting us and recruiting not only the M. Sc. students but also large number of our B.Sc. students. We have almost 100% posting in Geology, Geophysics, Computer Science, M.C.A. and almost 50% Chemistry, Maths, Statistics students through campus. Large number of students of Biology, Physics, Maths, Statistics get job directly also.
