Admission to Bundelkhand University in 2005 was through the UPSEE exam and counselling by AKTU, involving rank-based college selection and merit-based allotment. Physical admission required campus visits for documentation and fee submission. Faculty in the BTech Electronics and Communication department are supportive, with most members holding advanced degrees, although some lack updated tech skills and English proficiency. The Bachelor of Technology program costs 67,250 INR per year, including library and lab fees, with an additional 50 INR for semester exams. Government scholarships reimburse up to 55,000 INR annually, and education loans are available. Historically, fees were 38,000 INR per year from 2005-2009. Placement opportunities are limited, with 2-3 companies offering packages of 2-3 LPA, maxing at 5 LPA.

The MBA department sees more company visits. Internships are not directly provided but students receive updates on opportunities. An annual job fair and facilitated internships, especially in biotechnology, are available with companies like TCS and Rinex. Placement eligibility begins in the third year.
