Kristu Jayanti University, good vibes and an overall satisfying experience.
Placements: In UG programmes, approximately 30% were recruited, however, in PG programmes, about 80% were recruited. For biotech companies, Biocon Syngene has recruited, and certain pharmaceutical companies like Novartis and Cipla also recruit. The university also has many collaborations with research institutions. Roles offered in my course are biotechnologist, research scientist, bioinformatics specialist, lab technician, etc. It's impossible to predict the placements from my course, as most companies require a minimum of a Master's in this course to get a placement. For M.Sc. in the same course, the placement rate was said to be around 90%.
Infrastructure: The facilities, like labs, are well maintained, high-end devices and instruments are available, the library has a lot of different books and books are provided. The food provided in the canteen is delicious, however, it is a little overpriced. The college has a separate arena for sports, which has cricket, football, etc. The college also has a gym, which has good equipment.
Faculty: The teachers are qualified and knowledgeable, most teachers have advanced degrees. They are very supportive and provide guidance regarding the course, and are often willing to help outside of class hours. The faculty actively includes students in research projects.
Other: I chose this course because I was interested in biotech and genetics. Both biotech and genetics have rapidly expanding career opportunities, and the topics are really diverse and interesting, unlike other courses. Not only that, but since I chose this course, I get to pursue my master's in either of the three subjects, biotech, genetics and biochem.
