Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure are too good, and the campus is too big. In every class, projectors and air-conditioners are present, and on campus, Wi-Fi and a well-stocked library are available. The quality of food is average, and it's made with hygiene and is healthy.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful and well-behaved with students; they treat students very politely. They teach us related to our course and prepare us for placements. The semester exams are a little hard, and the passing percentage is 30%. Every student should reach this percentage, otherwise, they are failed.

Review of National Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences.
Placements: Internship and placement are both given importance in the college. The placement of students is good numbers and internship opportunities are available in both public and private hospitals. The package given to the students goes on an average of Rs. 25000 per month. There are amazing job opportunities for the students to make them learn the implementation of their learning and knowledge, and also help them gain professional experience. Various firms hire the students.
Infrastructure: M.Phil. Clinical Psychology is a doctorate-level programme which has a duration of 1 year. The structure of the course is very interesting and also innovative, with a focus on research and practical. The days and exams are tiring. The hostel facilities are not very good. It is with basic needs - internet, TV, washing machines, and water purifiers. The food in the mess is not good, although the contractor is renewing it every year, but the food quality doesn't improve.
Faculty: The faculty consists of doctors. A special mention for Dr., who was near perfect in explaining the approach towards the practical practices under my course. She knew her work well and made sure that the students also did so. The syllabus for my course was extremely complex. Its main reason was psychology, I deal with many science stream subjects such as Biology. The combination of such heavy-duty subjects was not easy and required a lot of dedication. The course curriculum is set by the college. They have set everything systematic course, exams, so the college days are chilled out but sometimes hectic.
