It provides good infrastructure, library, and placements can be better.

Placements: Around 15-20% of students were placed. Most pharmaceutical companies come for hiring during the end of semester 3 of the master's degree and continue for 2-3 months. Incharge notifies at least 3-4 days in advance so that students can prepare for an interview. Zydus, Cadila, Sun pharma, Aakash and Allen institute visit to hire students. Others may vary based on the agreement between the college and company. The average salary offered was Rs 15,000 per month which gradually increased based on expe...

It's the number one university to provide placements in Gujarat.

Placements: As this university is in the 4th position among all private colleges in India as per the list of 2020, obviously placements are very good. Many companies like Zydus Cadila, Cipla, etc., offer placement opportunities to students of our university. The salary package offered by companies is totally worth our efforts.

Higher fees, Needs to improve practical aspect of curriculum and placements.

Placements: Average placements. Mostly offered initial salary of 2.1Lacs per annum (much less as compared to any other renowned Institute like Nirma). Has good tieups with some pharma companies. Placement cells is there but still needs to get better. On can chose to work hard and get into college with better placement record or where they can get higher packages.

The best private college in Gujarat.

Placements: I got placed in Zydus Pfizer Oncology Pvt. Ltd. with 1.9 lacs per annum as the starting package which is less than the fees I paid to the university, but it's better than having nothing. Our college placement cell works continuously to provide good opportunities to students. They try until every student gets placed in a good company across India.
