B.Sc. in Microbiology - Batch of 2026

3.6

3.0Placements3.0Infrastructure3.0Faculty5.0Crowd & Campus Life4.0Value for Money

Average course, unless you are extremely proactive. Placements for microbiology are below average.

Placements: The placements for other course students are very nice. But there are no particularly good opportunities for microbiology students, in my opinion. There are only 3 people in my class who get placed. The highest package is 5 LPA, and the lowest is 2.5 LPA. There are no particular biotech companies, but only random companies offering jobs such as gym trainers, health trainers, and teacher positions.

Infrastructure: Facilities of the college are not bad, but they are very old and could use a lot of improvement. The lab has undergone renovation and is now good enough. The classrooms are often very hot as well. The library collection and the research section are pretty well stocked. I am not a hostel student, but I hear from other hostel students that it is not a pleasant experience.

Faculty: Some teachers know what they are talking about and can actually be of help to you. However, some can only read from a PDF or textbook verbatim and do not put in the effort to actually teach. The curriculum is pretty relevant, but I think it is too general. There are many things that we cannot study in detail because there are too many different topics. The exams are always hard. Teachers say that certain topics will come up in the exam. But the question setter often includes a 20-mark question on something that does not have enough material to justify 20 marks.

Other: There are no particularly good things I can say about this course. There are mandatory events where, if there is no audience, our department is asked to sit there to create the feel of a full room. However, if events are important to you, you will definitely enjoy it here. Every week, something is going on in one department or another.

Madras Christian College and its majestic legacy.

Placements: I'm now studying B.A. English literature in Madras christian college. Over 70 members are in our class. You can't easily get placed after B.A. but most of the professors are from our department only in the college. The highest package is 13.5 LPA to 2.5 LPA. Cognizant, Wipro, TCS, and Accenture are the top recruiting companies. 80 percent of our students get internships in corporate companies as content writers. Top roles offered in our course are content writers, newspaper editors, technical writers, and assistant professors.

Infrastructure: The facilities are so high-tech here. For both boys and girls we have a super comfortable lounge. Facilities in hostels are also very good. The food here is super tasty. In canteen it's so affordable as well as good in taste too. We have separate grounds and practice for different sports and professors here encourage you to participate in the sports activities.

Faculty: Teachers are all well-trained here. They are always helpful, as you can reach out to them anytime inside or outside the campus. The course curriculum is relevant and they encourage participation in many competitions, workshops, and leadership activities which make our curriculum more interesting. The exams are little difficult but they will make you learn more easily and you will get more than 70 percent like a piece of cake.

Other: I chose this course with confusion but now I'm clear about my path. Especially they care about everyone. They create a mentor for every 5 students to note their interests. I think it would be better if they had a special room or hall for presentations. Deepwood is the most famous event where actors Kamal Haasan and Priyanka Mohan came.
