u/Feeling-Painting-129

I’m considering B.Sc CS at BHU through CUET. My long-term goal is UPSC/IFS, not necessarily software engineering, but I still prefer logical/analytical subjects over studying political science for 4 years.

One major reason I’m drawn to BHU is the campus life — independence, exposure, meeting people from different backgrounds, personal growth, and the overall UPSC-oriented atmosphere. I feel like moving away from home and living in such an environment could shape me a lot as a person.

At the same time, I’m wondering if I’m idealizing the whole “college life” aspect too much.

I’d really appreciate honest insights from BHU students, especially those in B.Sc CS or any courses:

• How is the peer group and academic environment?
• Are students generally ambitious/motivated?
• How is the actual college life and hostel experience?
• Do you feel the university genuinely helps you grow as a person?
• Any regrets about choosing BHU or this course?
• How are the faculty, teaching style, and syllabus? Is the course more theory-based or does it involve genuine logical/coding-based learning and practical exposure?

Would love completely honest opinions.
