A truthful review for my waiting friends.
Placements: I'm not interested in going for a job after M.Sc. I want to continue my studies further so, I never bother about placements. But placements are very poor in my opinion, because we are getting under employment placements therefore most of the students are opting for Ph.D. Banks, IBPS, UPSC.
Infrastructure: I'm studying plant breeding & genetics. For my dept., the infrastructure is fully available with library, Wi-Fi, indoor stadium and outdoor as well where football & cricket can be played. I'm from Andhra Pradesh so I am not able to adjust to their food habits. Hostel rooms are good with available Wi-Fi. As far as my concern, I didn't face any issues relating to hostel and college.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and highly professional holding Ph.D and employed with several government research projects. Teaching quality is very good. Usually board & Power Point mode. We are 6 M.Sc students and we have 5 professors, therefore 6:5. No industrial exposure.
