Offered by Bangalore University

2Placements5Infrastructure4Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Best college for M.Sc., but dissatisfied due to no proper placement despite a good study environment

Placements: There are no placement opportunities or facilities in our department. Students do job hunting after the completion of the course. Outgoing freshers land jobs with an average package of 3 to 4 LPA. Students are usually offered the role of Junior Researcher.

Infrastructure: The Biotechnology Department has the best seminar halls, laboratory equipment, and classrooms. All the needed books are available in the library, which can be accessed through online portals or direct visits. Usage of phones is limited on campus, and there is no Wi-Fi. Mess food is very tasty, and different items are served daily. Proper hygiene is maintained throughout the hostel and canteen. Emergency medical facilities are available in the hostel, and the hospital is 2 km away from the hostel. There is 24-hour security, and sports can be played during free time.

Faculty: 9 out of 10 teachers are helpful, knowledgeable, and qualified to teach us. They only follow the curriculum, and the course curriculum is relevant and focused on industrial needs. Industrial visits are conducted to help us understand the application of the subjects. Semester exams can be passed by studying overnight, but scoring is impossible due to strict evaluation. The pass percentage is around 70 to 80 percent for each paper.

Good college for M.Sc. in biotechnology, good study environment. No proper placement facility.

Placements: Zero students got placed, due to no proper placement facilities. An outgoing fresher usually earns around 3 LPA to 4 LPA. Students search for job vacancies by themselves, and others start their own ventures. Since the internship is not included in the curriculum, only those interested get internships without help from the college.

Infrastructure: Labs are large and have all the necessary equipments. Classrooms are spacious and even have smartboards. Library is well maintained and all textbooks are needed to students. Hostel has the best rooms and food items provided are of top quality. Variety of items are provided based on time table. University hospital 1.5 KM away from department. Hostel has first aid and other small medical facilities. Sports and games can be played when students have free time.

Faculty: Some teachers are helpful, knowledgeable, and qualified to teach us, some just read the slides, and teaching quality is very good (80-90%). Course curriculum is relevant considering the industrial needs. But this curriculum makes students spend around 50 hours per week in classes, which is more than average. Semester exams can be passed easily by referring to 3 to 4 old question papers. One needs to study throughout the semester to score the highest percentage. Pass percentage is 80 to 90%, each semester.
