Absolutely I am satisfied with the faculty members, placements, etc.

Placements: The placements from this course are generally strong and respected due to the prestige of NIMHANS. Top recruiting companies/hospitals that offered jobs are government or private psychiatric hospitals, NGOs like Banyan, Sangath, etc. Top roles offered are psychiatric social worker, lecturer/assistant professor, researcher, etc.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure for the department of psychiatry social workers has a dedicated department building with classroom, seminar hall, and faculty office. Smart classroom, well-stocked library, seminars, workshops, and clubs are also available. Quality of food is good, and separate hostels are available on campus.

Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified and knowledgeable. They have many years of experience. They guide students in clinical casework, therapy sessions, family intervention, and research projects. This course is divided into 4 semesters, residential, and clinical-based. Semester exams are little tough, and 40% marks are required to pass the exams.

I'm absolutely satisfied with the placement and college infrastructure.

Placements: 90% of students are placed in this course during their placements. The highest package is 20 LPA, the average is 10 LPA, and the lowest was 5 LPA. Many top recruiting companies offer jobs. Top roles offered include neurology, physiology, and other areas.

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.

MD in Psychiatry - Batch of 2024

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

My honest review of my college.

Placements: The placement cell was too good. The students had good chances of placement by the college. Most of my batchmates including me as well placed in the top hospital. The college also provided internships for the students. It provided the best company for placements and offered internships every 2 years.

Infrastructure: Now hostel building had been transformed into administrative block. There were no facilities in hostel. But there was a college canteen inside the college premises.

Faculty: Faculty members were well-experienced and they all had vast knowledge in their particular field of interest. They helped students too much in their educational life. They gave valuable advice to the students for their betterment. The course curriculum was updated and modern the medical council of India. It made students ready for their placements. The exam pattern was divided into internal and external which was held every year. In 1 year 6 subjects, 2 year 12 subjects were there which was not easy, and 3 year 8 subjects which were related to courses. Last year, there were 6-8 subjects. Faculty members were too good but you had to clear your exam on your own preparation.

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.
