B.Sc. (Hons.) in Biotechnology - Batch of 2025

3.6

Average college, it should be your last choice to get admission here as there is no placement.

Placements: I’m an undergraduate student in this college pursuing BSc Hons in Biotechnology, so here in this course, we have no placements at BSc level. If someone does an MSc, then they can get a placement. There are no such roles offered to us as far as now.

Infrastructure: Labs are very well equipped with all facilities, just like every other college. There are minor problems regarding labs. Classrooms are also good. We have ac working 24/7 and a projector for teaching. Wi-Fi is also provided. I'm not a hosteler, but as far as I know, it is good, and the food in our canteen is very good.

Faculty: The faculties are helpful and also qualified. This curriculum is relevant, but if someone is really interested in science and research work, then only one should opt for this course as there is no job in bsc level for biotech students as this field requires more and more information.

Other: I chose this course because I have an interest in Biotechnology subjects. The improvement in this course is to remove subjects which are irrelevant to our course. The college conducts lots of events , annual fests, etc.

The college itself has one of the best infrastructures in Kolkata. We have different kinds of sports in our own sports complex. The hostel also provides great facilities .

Faculty: The teachers are the best part. They are helpful, knowledgeable and always on their feet to guide and help each student. The curriculum is relevant, provides hands-on knowledge and guides a student through everything that is required for the outside world. Daily assignments and projects are given, along with exams, to the students.

In this college, faculty members are great.

Placements: In case of B.Sc. in biotechnology, students generally go for M.Sc. before getting placed. So in case of getting chances at great, prestigious colleges in India and abroad. Amity can be considered a good place to complete bachelors degree in biotechnology. Other than that, students can placed in companies like Envigo, Nivanet, CVENT, Pepsi co, and so on.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of this university can be considered to be one of the best. Wi-Fi facilities are not good. Even after registering students device for Wi-Fi via Amazon, they do not get any Wi-Fi connection on campus. Food is available in the canteen at a very reasonable rate. Thalis, cold drinks, beverages, and all sorts of food is available in the canteen.

Faculty: Faculty members are very good, qualified, and knowledgeable. Every faculty member take a lot of care to make sure that students are understanding each topic properly. They also discuss important questions and take class tests which help in the exams.

Other: I chose this course because my passion has always been biotechnology and I am glad I chose Amity University Kolkata because of its faculty members and laboratory facilities.

It is excellent in every respect and is one of the best university in Kolkata.

Placements: Almost everyone gets placed, and recruiters are mainly from Biotech Firms, Edu-Tech industries like Byju's and Research Fields. Internships are allotted to all students.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities available in Amity University Kolkata are according to international standards. Hardly there are any universities in India, that provide this level of facilities and infrastructure. Hostels are like 4 stars, and canteen is also good. Top-class facilities for sports and games are provided. The building from the outside looks like a world-class airport or shopping mall.

Faculty: All teachers are highly qualified, most of them have doctorate degrees. All teachers are very helpful and friendly but also strict when required. All course curriculum is extremely relevant and makes them ready for their respective field. The entire course is harder than the course followed in other universities, and exams are tough sometimes but with time students get used to it.

Other: Biotechnology is a growing and evolving field in India as well as for the rest of the world. I could see a better future in this field, so I opted for this field. I do not feel that there is any requirement for change in the course. Events and fests are excellent. The campus crowd is good and friendly.

Quality of teaching is excellent

Placements: Almost 80% of the students are given good placements while the others go on for further studies. Various companies visit throughout the year. The selection is made on the basis of interviews. The highest salary goes upto 18 lpa while the average salary package is arpund 4-5 lpa.

Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is outstanding which you can tell by the looks of it. It consists of a library, an auditorium, cafeteria, research labs, seminar halls, and an atrium. The academic block consists of three wings and has more than 100 classrooms. It has a hostel block separate for both boys and girls. Amity has wireless broadband internet connectivity. All of it is used and maintained very well. The campus is eco friendly.

Faculty: I am currently pursuing B.sc. in biotechnology and I would say the quality of teaching is excellent under my departmental teachers. In this pandemic, they are doing their very best to make us understand the subjects in the simplest possible way. We are introduced to the core subjects from the very beginning. They are partly what we studied in our high school but in a more detailed manner. We are being prepared in such a way that by the end of our three years, we are ready to face the job interviews.
