Satisfying college, good placement and faculty.

Placements: About 80 percent of students got placement. The M.Sc. Biotechnology course has four semesters. Each semester, the fee is INR 7000. The companies that offer placement are Serum Institute, Genetic, and Biocon. They got jobs under the vacancies of project associate and lab technician. Amrita has a good placement office that works effectively for the placement of students.

Infrastructure: Amrita has an amazing infrastructure. It has specific labs for each subject, such as neuroscience, molecular biology, Biotechnology, industrial Biotechnology, and biochemistry. The lab contains good facilities with all the equipment needed for a Science lab, such as PCR, a genetic analyzer, SDS-PAGE, and AGE electrophoresis apparatus. It provides a Wi-Fi network for the use of students and faculty. The library has a wide range of books, and the staff is friendly and helpful.

Give an idea for developing new researchers.

Placements: Campus collaborated with the top search centres, organisations, ICMR, and CSIR for hiring. Emcure, Novartis, and Intas are the most expected recruiters in the campus drives for biotechnology graduates, with the package starting from 3.4 LPA to 8.5 LPA. Students with excellent projects and research are offered good pay.

Infrastructure: Molecular laboratory and plant anatomical laboratories are equipped with the required specimen fluid, specimens, and examination equipment. An assistant for the laboratories is always available to maintain the laboratories properly. I am disappointed with them, because they won't be satisfied with our research force to implement some other better ideas.

Faculty: The syllabus covers major topics like molecular biology, genetic engineering, plant Biology, and so on, while professors are highly familiar with and popular with all that coverage. As professors are brought up with discoveries that are quite inspiring.

Promising career opportunities made by them.

Placements: The probability of getting hired in various pharmaceutical companies, research centers, diagnostic centers, and biotechnology centers. The starting package offered to the students would be 3.58 LPA, and extended upto 13.5 LPA as the highest grabbed offers till now.

Infrastructure: The college was surrounded by a lot of organisations and corporate companies which would be the main landmarks in the city. This created some extra fame for the college and very much easier for students to visit the college. Transportation had been supported for 100+ KM from the college.

Faculty: Teachers were so transparent with the parents about our marks, that activity was immediately reported to the parents via phone calls. Parents were immediately called off even for the little problems. Like schools, we should get signed from the report cards issued by the examinations were the most difficult thing to clear without studying harder and deeper.
