I'm not that much satisfied with my university because the academics are quite good.
Placements: Very average on placement, the packages are offered around 20,000 - 40,000 INR. Mainly mines and quarries are recruiting. 60-70% of students are getting internships, and the syllabus is very good for the students who want to get a good job, you have to consider this.
Infrastructure: There is a very good facility in the hostel, especially the washrooms, which are very clean and well-maintained, so it’s not a problem for us. The reading room is there for us, and it’s very nice and quiet. The hostel has a very good environment for studying, and that will definitely help us.
Faculty: There are mainly 3 types of exams: 2 internal exams, 1 mid-sem test which is very crucial and important, and finally, end-semester exams. The curriculum is very relevant and industry-ready, and very good for students who are interested in various other competitive exams. Semester exams are not very difficult, easy to pass, but it’s very hard to get a good grade without proper preparation for exams, and the pass percentage is 90-100%.
Other: Because I completed B.Sc. Geology (Hons), I opted for this course. The course is not that much hard and relevant. Great events are arranged regarding the subject, and no other co-curricular activities are conducted.

Overall, the best University for an M.Sc. in Mathematics Course.
Placements: Almost 70% of the students got placed in the college. Half of the students chose to pursue their Masters. The college offered a lot of work. Several companies like Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, Google, and some other IT companies visited the university for recruitment. The average salary was about Rs. 15 LPA. 66% of students get employment opportunities. The top roles offered are Statistician, Actuary, and more.
Infrastructure: The resources are the best, with well-spaced classrooms. The library is also good. Some of the departments do not have Wi-Fi, and the laboratories are good enough to keep up with both practical and theoretical information. There are many games and sports available, such as judo, wrestling, table tennis, chess, badminton, volleyball, basketball, soccer, cricket, kabaddi, cross country, and cycling.
Faculty: The teachers in our college are very knowledgeable, qualified, and helpful to every student. They helped students achieve so much in their lives.

Overall best University for M.Sc. In Chemistry Course.
Placements: The college has a good reputation with employers, and more than 80% of students are placed each year. The highest package available is 21 LPA, and the typical package size is 14 LPA. 79% of students receive job prospects. Some of the top recruiters include SGS India, Intertek, and Bureau Veritas. My course offers careers such as Quality Control Analyst and Formulation Chemist.
Infrastructure: The university has a good infrastructure for courses. The classrooms are equipped with mixed technology, and there are large computer labs with software licenses. The two-story library has some good books but is lacking in textbooks. The hostel is well located inside the campus, but only the two top students in each batch can stay there. The food is good, but the menu is pretty much the same every week.
Faculty: All of the professors are PhDs with extensive knowledge in their subjects. The teaching methods are very different from other universities I've attended. The curriculum is solid and prepares students for careers, but there is still room for improvement. The courses are challenging but not overly difficult. The pass rate is over 70%.
