Faculty is good, course is new, and the saturation in the course is limited.

Placements: About 50% of our students are graduated from the university. The salary offered is Rs.30000 per month for the students who are assigned as contractual professors in the university. Private companies also recruit students. I don't know about the percentage of students who got internships at farms. Ornamental fish manager and assistant marine biologist are the top roles offered.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is new and excellent with the smart monitors in every classroom. Wi-Fi is available on campus and in the hostel. The library is excellent and almost every study material regarding fisheries science is available. The hostel is excellent and new for both girls and boys. Both non-vegetarian and vegetarian food varieties are available. The canteen isn't present on campus. Medical facilities are limited as there aren't many students. Sports activities aren't present too.

Faculty: Faculty members at our university are highly reputed, new, and helpful. Almost every faculty member has done a Ph.D. in different fields of fisheries and some are highly knowledgeable. The teaching quality is good. Some teachers give more focus on practical work which is a plus point. The curriculum is as per ICAR regulated. It also gives you knowledge regarding entrepreneurship opportunities in the fisheries sector. Internal exams of the semester are average. External papers of semesters are settled by ICAR which are a bit tough. The pass percentage is almost 70%.

Other: The university is located in a hilly area so there are no cafeterias and restaurants.

Absolutely satisfied and will have bright future there.

Placements: Bachelor in fisheries was introduced at SKUAST recently, 10 or 12 years ago. So, there is not much knowledge about placements. Internship is offered to all of its students with a stipend of Rs. 3,000 per month. However, placement is a little bit issue as there are very few companies, which know about this recently introduced fisheries college.

Infrastructure: SKUAST has the state of art infrastructure. The fisheries faculty got a separate campus at Rangil, which was inaugurated in 2016. The campus is having sufficient playing area, but lack places for indoor games. Campus is equipped with Wi-Fi, labs with the latest and highly sophisticated equipments.

Faculty: The teachers at SKUAST are highly professional with a tremendous amount of knowledge in the respective field. Recently in 2018, a scientist from SKUAST developed a drug for prostate cancer. Thus it is the level of knowledge. Faculty of fisheries are country's first, and it is the only coldwater fisheries research institute.
