Two best years of my life.

Placements: The institute is the most famous and reputed in Pune. We have 100% placement with companies like Mylab, Discover, Cipla, Sun Pharma, Dr. Reddy's, Biocon, and 30 more scheduling interviews. Almost all students are selected in at least one company, and the package is based on the interview, always more than 4 lakhs. Internships are given to all in Lupin with stipends.

Infrastructure: The surrounding area of the institute is very famous, named after the institute. There is a big market for girls' clothes here. Our institute's campus is very huge. We have Wi-Fi on campus. The library of our college is very big, and its seating arrangement is the best. The hostel fee is more, but its facilities are worth it. We have washing machines, a coffee area, a ground, a gym, and the mess provides dinner and lunch of good quality.

Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified, with most of them having completed their Ph.D. Two teachers are alumni of our college. We have digital classrooms, which they use to teach us. During COVID, microbiologists played a very important role in tackling it and saving many people's lives. Semester exams are very difficult, and only 50% manage to clear them.

Good placements in 2016 and good infrastructure.

Placements: The placements were good. Emcure and Indus came to our department. 11 people got selected for Emcure. This year, Sun Pharma came too. The roles of a quality control officer, teaching, and a junior editorial associate were offered. The highest salary offered was 3.5 lakhs pa.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good. The lab facilities are good. Wi-Fi is not available. Mobile signals are poor. The library has a variety of textbooks. The food at the canteen is hygienic but could be better in terms of quality. The classrooms are good. Wi-Fi should be provided. Medical facilities are proper.

Faculty: The faculty is qualified and uses unique teaching methods. The student to faculty ratio was 3 students to 1 teacher. Industry exposure should be increased by making more visits possible. The course curriculum is useful in terms of research and teaching but not in case of industry-related jobs.
