It has an excellent library and mess facilities.
Placements: There are 7 students in my batch, including myself. 2 girls got married during course and other 5 are doing PhD somewhere. No highest or the lowest salary packages are offered to students. It's the fellowship of a PhD we are getting from the government of India. All students get placed in the top institutes of India, including IITs. Students are engaged in rigorous research work whole year, and sending material sample for testing in different institutions. So there is no time for internships in all that. One student got an offer letter for a project associate and converted that project into a PhD already.
Infrastructure: Classrooms and the library system are top-notch in AMU. There's enough flexibility for doing lab work in any department. This department also has expensive equipment for labwork. Hostels are decent with decent quality of mess. The main feature is the reasonable cost of mess, i.e., Rs. 1600 per month. Food quality is satisfactory. Students have access of JN Medical College Aligarh free of cost and a separate student health service is operation 24x7. Sports facilities are also quite good. From athletic ground to swimming pool, horse riding, tennis, hockey, cricket, football, basketball, volleyball, etc., all facilities are available for bonafide students of AMU.
Faculty: Faculty members are the most positive part of the department. Faculty members are extremely supportive and well-qualified. Teaching quality is top-notch. The course curriculum was recently updated with all the current industrial subjects, such as quantum mechanics and smart intelligent materials. Semester exams are quite engaging with the syllabus taught to us and are pretty balanced. An average student does not feel any difficulty in cracking it. For labs, it's 60% and for theory work, it is 40%.
Other: I have an interest in biodegradable materials for environmental sustainability, so I chose M.Tech. in Materials Science & Technology. The placement area is the weakest part of the department. It needs an improvement immediately. The campus is vibrant and filled with different people from different parts of the world. Scholarships are available from MHRD, and central scholarships are also there. As the strength is very low, extracurricular activities in the department are rare.
