One of the best university for Life Science Reaseach.
Placements: Our course is not a placement course; rather, it provides excellent opportunities in the research domain. However, some students get placed in classes like Byju's and Bansal. But this UG course mainly focuses on gaining knowledge of the core subject.
Infrastructure: The faculty is well-equipped with a lab with proper instruments that have to be used. The department also provides a seminar library in which you can study and the entire campus is equipped with Wi-Fi. The department also has a canteen nearby where you can eat. The hostel facility is also good, so you can live comfortably. The dining facility is awesome and the charges are nominal, which are just INR 1700 per month for three meals a day. The hostel also organizes a yearly function, also known as a hall function.
Faculty: The teachers are well qualified. There are many well-known professors in the department who are well known for their research work, both nationally and abroad. The course is relevant. The level of the midterm examination is medium and sometimes the questions were too easy. However, the end semester is conducted at a difficult level, which is okay.
Other: Events and seminars are organized on campus as well as in the departments in which you can participate. The main event at this university is SIR SYED DAY, in which the whole university participates.
