A design management student at FLAME.

Placements: I believe about 45% of students from my double major combination got placements. Overall, in the university one of the top packages offered is in Hindustan Unilever Limited with a 22 LPA (approximately). During your second year, you are required to do an internship with a company in your discipline. The SIP committee is really helpful and ensures that students can get an opportunity.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure at FLAME is the best I have ever seen. No other campus is this advanced and well-maintained in India. Hostels are clean and very well made with almost a hotel-like feel. There is an Olympic size swimming pool and state-of-the-art sports facilities. FLAME truly gives a lot of importance to sports.

Faculty: The courses provided are very vast with various types and several knowledge spheres are tapped. Teachers are always helpful and come from very prestigious universities, so you are assured to get the best knowledge possible. Semester exams are difficult but it again varies on the courses and your area of study.

Amazing infrastructure, plentiful opportunities and thrilling campus life.

Placements: Fame University has a dedicated career serving office that has secured 100% placement for the MBA batch with the highest annual salary package being 25 Lacs and recruiting companies like Bajaj Finders, Avalara, Mercedes Benz, IFA global, Mahindra Finance, Kotak Mahindra, Nippon India mutual Found, FITJEE, Clix Capital, etc.

Infrastructure: 1) The university provides some top-notch infrastructure and facilities for all students. First of all, the Vivekananda library, which consists of more than 10,000 books ranging across various disciplines and subjects, is maintained with digitized technology and facilitated by discussion and meeting rooms, quiet spaces, scenic study areas, etc. All classrooms on campus also boast convenient infrastructure with projectors, speakers, and well-ventilated window setups. The new building, APJ, hosts a psychology lab, a design studio, and a finance lab to make sure students are equipped with the best resources. Campus is connected through seamless Wi-Fi in every academic building and residential block. The sporting space include a cricket field, football field, volleyball, football, squash, tennis, basketball court, Olympic-size swimming pool, fully functional gym, etc. 2) The quality of food available is very decent, with a well-spread buffet provided four times a day in the mess. Apart from that, we also have 5 cafes on campus serving Indian and continental dishes to provide a change of taste to the palette every now and then.

Faculty: All the professors are qualified for the courses that they teach. Although time in class does fall short of clearing all doubts, students are more than welcome to visit the faculty during office hours. The course curriculum is quite diverse and well paced throughout the 4 years with equal emphasis on theoretical and practical learning, with the utilisation of textbooks by different authors across the globe alongside student presentations, debates and research paper writing assignments through real world case studies relevant to one's area of study. Semester exams are a level above what is taught in class to encourage critical thinking and force one to not limit themselves to textual knowledge.

Amazing place to grow and explore while having a holistic degree experience.

Placements: I believe FLAME University provides a large percentage of opportunities that students can take advantage of. For the undergraduate the CSO Office helps provide internship opportunities at companies that even offer PPO's. Students have received full time offers ranging from 10 to 18 Lacs pa.

Infrastructure: Every facility is top-notch, from recreational centres to cafes and mess food. The library is equipped with every resource you may need and is easily accessible! I love having an infrastructure that helps me grow and stay active. I often feel like I live abroad because of the high available class infrastructure!

Faculty: The faculty are extremely approachable and help find resources and take advantage of opportunities! The course curriculum and exams are rigorous and challenging but the professors are accommodation! There are centres and clubs that add value to your degree and additional cv building.

Good Infrastructure and Academic Opportunities!

Placements: FLAME is extremely guiding when it comes to placements and preparing you for the same. It not only offers a platform to get access to placement opportunities but enhances your skills in order for you to put your best foot forward. There are packages that surpass 20 LPA along with the chance to work at companies such as Unilever. Currently, in my batch the placements are yet to begin being offered however, the Career Service Office has been preparing us in several arena, including interviews, CVs, etc.

Infrastructure: FLAME has state-of-the-art infrastructure and facilities. It has some areas that can be bettered, however these facilities are holder buildings and are currently in the process of being renovated. The quality of hostel depends on which you choose (AC w/ private bathroom, Attached bathroom, No AC and communal washrooms) but is in no way misleading and you receive what you chose. The non AC and communal washrooms hostels make up some of the holder buildings but are regularly maintained and are clean. The mess, although completely vegetarian, has good food that often feels homemade. Additional, there are cafes all over campus where you can satisfy any craving you might have. The medical facilities have recently been renovated and digitized and are equipped with nurses and doctors constantly so you can get instant care if required. Sports and extra-curricular facilities at FLAME exceed all expectations, not only is everything in top-notch conditions but there are space for you to explore any interest you might have, whether trained or new.

Faculty: I'm a Psychology major with a Sociology minor, and I can say with full conviction that the faculty is extremely experienced and good at what they know and do. They are approachable as well and are willing to guide you in any endeavors that you might want to pursue. The curriculum is meticulously planned for each course that you will have and every assignment or activity has intention behind it in order to equip you with further understanding of the subject or a skill. Likewise, exams vary based on course, some have written exams while others have assignments it depends on what the course call for.

Faculty is amazing, Mess food is not good, really good infrastructure

Placements: Over 80 percent of students got placed, the ones who didn't pursued further studies either abroad or in India. The lowest package was 6 LPA, average was 10 LPA and highest was 19 LPA. The top recruitment companies were Unilever, Adani Group, Bajaj, Finiserve, etc. Due to a compulsory course for summer internship in NGO and in Corporate, all students got internships. These internships were all over India in various companies.

Infrastructure: The food at the mess does not taste good and sometimes there are insects in them. Same with the water coolers. Aside from that the library is very big with different selections of books and very organized. The psychology, art, biology, chemistry, computer and finance labs are very well equipped. Wifi works good in the academic spine but not as well in the hostel rooms. The sports complex is huge with football, basketball, yoga, kickboxing, dance, swimming, tennis, badminton, volleyball, indoor tennis, pool and chess places. It has all the equipment and a gym which you can access anytime. The classrooms are big but only have place for 35 students so that they can accommodate each and is excellent.

Faculty: The teachers are really helpful and qualified. They have a lot of interest in what they teach and and are willing to reach out if you want to. The courses are connected to real life and are hands on. The semester exams are usually submissions making it doable and not burdening. The courses are easy to choose and you get choices.
