GBPUAT B.Sc Food Technology: Fees 2025, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Govind Ballabh Pant University of Agriculture and Technology (GBPUAT) is Uttarakhand's only agricultural university, offering various courses, including B.Sc. Agriculture, B.Sc. Food Technology, B.Sc. Fisheries, B.Sc. Community Science, Veterinary Sciences, and B.Tech. Admission involves an entrance exam and offline counseling, with course allocation based on rank. The university's faculty comprises highly qualified professors, many of whom are renowned scientists. Tuition is economical, with most undergraduate courses costing around 40,000 INR per semester, including 20,000 INR for hostel and food. However, B.Sc. Food Technology, not accredited by ICAR, is self-financed, leading to a total annual fee of about 1,30,000 INR. The overall placement rate is low, with only about 20% of students securing jobs through campus placements. The College of Technology has better placement opportunities than the College of Agriculture. The average salary package is about 10-12 lakhs, prompting many students to pursue higher studies instead. The university offers various scholarships, including academic, sports, and need-based options, such as Rs. 8,000 annually for top rankers and Rs. 24,000 for ICAR exam entrants. Despite a strong reputation and alumni network, the placement cell's effectiveness is limited, impacting job placement outcomes.
