A good experience overall.

Placements: The university provides placements for the students. An information database is maintained throughout the course (CGPA, internships, etc) to help facilitate the placement process later. The psychology committee at NMIMS has a placement team where students and teachers work together for internships as well as placements. For clinical students, internships are provided at four different places (current batch), including mental hospitals and rehab centers. For 10 students, internships are provided at different organizations, one of them being Parle.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good. You get a Wi-Fi, an air-conditioned, and a smart board in every room. The psychology lab has recently been set up. The lab consists of various testing materials and equipment. They also provide a library with a good amount of lighting and space. There are multiple canteens available in the building on different floors. They offer a variety of things to eat and drink.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful and qualified. The teaching quality is satisfactory. The course curriculum is relevant, especially in the second year when the curriculum gets super specific (the second year is when you have to opt for one of the two specialisations offered by clinical psychology or industrial organizational psychology). The fourth semester is where we get to have the most practical exposure through the college.

Other: Events are an important part of the program, giving students chances to explore their talents in singing, dancing, acting, and networking with influential figures across different fields. Major events like the Psych Film Fest (PFF) and Mental Illness Awareness Week (MIAW) stand out PFF blends psychology with filmmaking while MIAW aims to break mental health stigmas through different activities. Located in Vile Parle, Mumbai, the university is perfectly situated amidst lively areas of Juhu, Andheri, Lokhandwala, and many more, adding a vibrant cultural touch to the experience.

B.Sc. Applied Psychology - The start to your journey in Psychology.

Placements: During the summer internship period, college provided a plethora of internship opportunities to different organizational firms as well as renowned hospitals such as Thane Mental Hospital, Bai Jerbai Hospital Wadia Hospital for Children, and other private mental health clinics as well. The fields of psychology that students are interested includes counseling psychology, clinical psychology, industrial and organizational psychology, neuropsychology, and psychiatry. As this is a compulsory requirement of the course, all students get internships either via the university or by personally acquiring the internships. This process is extremely helpful in providing practical knowledge in the field.

Infrastructure: The university has access to smart screens, Wi-Fi, and fully air-conditioned classrooms. Additionally, there is access to a library that has a plethora of books on psychology and is also quite peaceful. Moreover, we have a psychology laboratory where many psychometric tools and tests can be conducted.

Faculty: Teachers at B.Sc. Applied Psychology, NMIMS are highly knowledgeable, experienced, and helpful. They use a wide variety of pedagogies to ensure maximum student understanding. Additionally, the assignments given are thought provoking, stimulating, and not monotonous at all. The curriculum is in-depth, being a science course, it develops deep into each field of psychology that it covers such as criminal psychology, neuropsychology, counseling psychology, etc. The examinations are challenging and require students to not only have a theoretical understanding of a myriad of concepts and theories but also have practical knowledge of how to apply the knowledge.

Other: I chose psychology due to my fascination with the human mind. I was able to learn a lot about psychology and build on my passion. The best thing about this course is the practical subjects provided each semester that imbue students with the required inside skills required to succeed in the field. Furthermore, the course also has a psychology committee that helps in the holistic development of the students. We have many annual fests that are fun for the audience for example, Mental Illness Awareness Week and Psych Film Festival.

Absolutely the worst college and faculty.

Placements: I would not recommend this college because it has no scope for placement and no provisions for a proper placement cell. We will have to search for internships on our own, and there is no formal training provided for them. There is one internship department that generally does not provide more than two or three internships for a batch of 190 students.

Infrastructure: We had to sit in the old and shabby Mithibai building, which has bad classrooms that stink. The college Wi-Fi does not work most of the time, and other facilities are almost nonexistent except for a huge library that has some resources available from time to time. Overall, the college is very overcrowded.

Faculty: The faculty is absolutely bad and underqualified. They are usually recent Masters graduates who have no teaching experience at all. They are supposed to teach second year graduates. Their clarity of concepts and teaching style are not consistent. In addition, they never complete the portion on time.

Definitely recommended if you're serious about pursuing Psychology.

Placements: The course doesn't offer placements as there are limited opportunities with a Bachelors Degree in Psychology. Most students opt for further studies and support is provided for that. The course does have a compulsory summer internship after 2nd year that gives on-field practical experience to the students.

Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure are quite good. The classes have air conditioning, smart boards, and charging points. Classrooms are big and spacious and Wi-Fi is provided as well. The library is quite average, although you can get access to Turnitin and printing services. The campus is not that big and facilities for sports don't exist on the campus although off-campus outdoor sporting events are held sometimes by the Sports Committee. The food quality in the canteen is average, there is only one cafeteria with fairly limited options.

Faculty: The faculty is excellent, they are extremely helpful, approachable, qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is great for most classes and the faculty provides support beyond academic hours as well. The course curriculum is highly relevant and the course is quite academically rigorous. It prepares the student well for pursuing their Masters and gives exposure and introduction to various fields in Psychology. The semester exams are fairly tough but the faculty is very helpful so the pass percentage is pretty high. Most students "fail" due to attendance shortage.

Other: I chose this course because of the course content and structure. I wanted something rigorous and challenging academically and I don't regret my choice, it gave me a thorough idea of what I want to do in the future. The best thing for me is definitely the quality of the faculty, they have been extremely supportive. One thing I would improve is the attendance policy, it is really strict, students have to maintain 80% which can be really tough sometimes. There are lots of fests organized throughout the year by different committees and clubs on campus that can be fun to participate in. The campus crowd has all sorts of people, it might take some time to find your people but eventually you do.

Bad placements, underqualified faculty, good course structure.

Placements: Not many good opportunities were given, and the system of working was very consistent. As it is a fairly new course, the issue might be due to a lack of connections. It was handled by students rather than teachers, which was really surprising.

Infrastructure: You have to sit in the Mithibai building; the classrooms have broken ceilings, the ACs don’t work sometimes, and you have to sit in a room with no ventilation for lectures. They don’t have enough space to conduct extracurricular activities, which was disappointing.

Faculty: The curriculum is great, but the faculty is highly underqualified compared to what was promised. Exams are tough, and the portion is rigorous, which is not met by the teachers most of the time. They have to hurry through it and don’t deliver the quality that was promised.

Facilities in the college can be improved a little.

Placements: Around 60% of the students got placed. The highest package offered is 7 LPA, and the lowest package offered is 1.5 LPA. Asian Paints, Nivea, Cactus Communication, etc., companies visited the campus. Companies like IPCA, Lupin, BARC, etc., also visit the college. Research associates, QA, QC and scientific writer roles are offered to the students.

Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure in our college are very good, but the labs are a bit small. Wi-Fi facility, library and classrooms are excellent. I don't know about the hostel, but the mess and canteen offer very good food, and the quality is great. Sports events are organised in our college, and also games facilities are available.

Faculty: The teachers are very good and knowledgeable. The course curriculum is designed for students to be industry-ready. Overall, it is a great experience here, and I learned many things about the industry, CV building, and we also had soft skill development sessions to face the interview.
