I am happy with our college faculty members, campus life, friendly people and a clean city.
Placements: There is not much scope in our college for placements after masters in mathematics. Students opt for it to become a researcher in mathematics or a professor or something. So companies don't visit here for recruitment. However, students from our course get internships for data analysing.
Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure of our university are great. Our college provides free Wi-Fi facility for students and well-furnished classrooms. It also provides a separate library for mathematics, along with another library for the whole university students. The quality of the facilities provided in the hostel is great, and the food served here is fantastic. This college worth for every penny you pay. There is a huge sports ground in the university only.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are very helpful, friendly, qualified and knowledgeable. They teach you the subject in-depth, and their teaching quality is remarkable. They guide you with everything, like which books you should prefer, what books are helpful and in many things. The course curriculum is completely relevant.
Other: I chose this course because I like maths, so I want to study it further also. I did my graduation in mathematics, and now I am pursuing masters here. Department fests organised here are not much popular, but the university organises a fest every year on a huge scale. Students on this campus are almost from Punjabi people, and they are friendly, so they connect well. There's a huge campus to roam around. NBHM provides you with a scholarship around Rs. 6,000-7,000 per month on the basis of the test they conduct.

Dissatisfied with the department
Placements: Placements were horrible as there were no placement drives for the department. Zero percent students were placed. No companies came except some small coaching centers. There were no internship programmes in our department. The students who got placed arranged them on their own.
Infrastructure: The Wi-Fi facility was not present at our time. Classrooms and the library were average. No up to date material was available in the library and it only had old edition books. No sports facilities were there particularly in the department, though at the university level, they were present. The department is not having a canteen of its own, though we had a centralized canteen and a student center. The food quality was good. The infrastructure was average. Chairs were not in good condition and sometimes, classrooms were not available for certain classes.
Faculty: The faculty team was qualified but was not knowledgeable. The curriculum needs to be revised and updated. Lecturers used to teach old edition books and the syllabus was not at all according to the syllabus needed for UGC. They were not fully cooperative and were biased. We did not get any industry exposure.

Good faculty but only for those who want to go into research work, PhD or post PhD.
Placements: Being a course relating to the science stream, there were not many options for campus placements. Only two or three companies came for recruitment for the post of teachers. Maximum package offered was around 6 LPA by only one institute. There was no criterion of internships as a part of the curriculum.
Infrastructure: The facilities were average just like any government institute. Computer labs were average and classrooms were also fine. Food available was good as a student's centre is there. The hostels were also fine with good food services. No infrastructure related issues were there.
Faculty: Faculty members were good and helpful when needed, qualified and knowledgeable. Their teaching methods were fairly good for those really interested in research work. Student-faculty ratio was 1:40. No industry exposure was there. The curriculum was useful only to those who are really interested in research work.

    The procedure is different for different university. Most of the processing is online. Some universities are taking admission by conducting admission test and some of them take admission by counseling process . The counseling process should depend on your percentage of math in B.Sc. Good Luck!!
