Dissatisfied with the placements, but the faculty and the infrastructure are good.
Placements: There weren't any placements in the department of biotechnology in the previous academic year as far as I've known. There are a few companies that approached for the placements this year. The salary package hasn't been mentioned so far. Many of our seniors weren't informed or were aware of the internships, so they haven't applied. There is no placement cell in the department.
Infrastructure: There is the Wi-Fi facility in the department. The classrooms are big enough for a strength of 30 pupils. There is a pharmacy close by to the department, where we can rush in case if an emergency. There is a varied range of instruments in the laboratories. The food in the canteen appears to be kind of pricey for certain foods, but overall it is good.
Faculty: The faculty members are helpful, highly knowledgeable, and qualified. The faculty members use the questioning method to increase the inquisitiveness of the individual alongside visual images to understand a topic in a better way. The student-faculty ratio is approximately 6:1.
Other: We do have seminars on every Saturday, which is given by a delegate or by the students itself. The scholarships are given to the candidates having the reservation. The campus is located in a calm and serenity locality, so it is peaceful.
