M.Sc. in Applied Chemistry - Batch of 2027

Absolutely satisfied with faculty members and teaching staff.

Placements: Good placements are provided with the help of a specially arranged placement cell. If someone fails to receive a placement, faculty helps them with off-campus placements as well. Overall, both campus and off-campus placements are good. Faculty supports students in finding jobs if they fail to secure placements.

Infrastructure: Good infrastructure and newly renovated laboratories are available to M.Sc. students, so they can do their practical work. Faculty also has research labs for Ph.D. students and provides Ph.D. courses. The department provides hostel facilities. There are also PGs available in nearby areas. Overall, the campus and hostel facilities are good.

Faculty: A very proper exam system and strict monitoring during exams ensure fair examinations. Exams are conducted in the IA and UA pattern. IA is of 30 marks. UA is of 70 marks. Your CGPA is calculated as the total marks scored in both exams. You need to score a minimum of 40 marks to pass. If you score 15/30 in IA, you need to score 25/70 in UA to pass the exam. If you have more than 3 ATKTs in your first year, you are detained by faculty. That is why a good preparation is necessary. Faculty members and teachers are supportive. They encourage students to succeed in their respective subjects through proper guidance and support.

Other: It is a very good grant-in-aid course.

The education is good, and the placements are too good.

Placements: The placement is good in the B.Com (Hons). It is based on your performance and your skill. In the past few years, the placements have been good, and I suggest pursuing this course at MSU. Also, this was the largest faculty of Asian. The education is too good. Internships in various areas were good for students.

Infrastructure: There is a good hostel facility available. It is also budget-friendly. The fees for the hostel are around Rs. 10,000 per year without including food. That's good for residential. The hostel has its own Wi-Fi facility. It also has good water facilities. Hostels are also good. There is a food problem, but that is good for residential.

Faculty: Teachers are good and well-educated faculty. The education level is too good. There is a good faculty and well-educated faculty that makes students perfect for those subjects, such as Economics, Accounts, etc. Teachers are good, and they are also friendly. The semester exam is a little difficult. The pass percentage is around 85%, so that is good.

Satisfied but not confident.

Placements: Nothing much for B.Com students. No one was placed in our course. There is no average package, so no one actually received any kind of money at all. Roles like accountant, business management, chartered accountant, CMA company secretary, GST officer, etc., are offered.

Infrastructure: The course was good. I lived in my home with my parents. But some of my friends who were in a hostel told me they were good. Moreover, I also missed the hostel life, but it was good to live with family and complete graduation. Therefore, I don't face any challenge regarding the internet.

Faculty: Examination and teachers are well managed and professional. The teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The quality of teaching is actually decent enough for understanding. These courses are actually good for students who want to study business. Semester exams are easy, my pass percentage is 55% because I only study during exam time.

Other: I chose this course because I want to focus on my further plans regarding some businesses, and I also did many jobs during the course.

The college is pretty average and satisfactory.

Placements: As of now, I don't assume that huge companies are coming for campus recruitment for B.Com, and if they come, a very average package is offered. In the 3rd year, there is a compulsory internship, the college offers campus recruitment internship, or students can suo motu find their internship. The internship is of short duration.

Infrastructure: Classrooms of the main building of commerce are just enough for studying, and yet not the best. There is a dedicated library known as Hansa Mehta library, which is good in terms of facilities. The Wi-Fi is not available in the commerce faculty, and the infrastructure is also average. The canteen is good.

Faculty: Exams are very much predictable on the basis of past year questions, almost 80% of the paper is similar to what is asked in past exams. There is a subject known as IKS, which, in my perspective, is not necessary, yet it is very easy, as half of the paper is objective-based. Teachers are helpful by nature.

Our college ranks 5th in the state.

Placements: Most students who have good CGPA and skills generally get placements from the college in the 4th year only. The training and placement cell offers internships and also trains students for the interview and helps them. The average placement is approximately 5 LPA-6 LPA.

Infrastructure: As it is a government college, there are still smart classrooms, the labs have every piece of equipment, and there is Wi-Fi on the campus as well. The government hotel is not very great but for such a small fee it's great. The campus of the college is very great.

Faculty: The teachers mostly have post-graduation in their respective subjects. They are very knowledgeable and kind. They are also interested in helping the students and solving their doubts. As for the exams they are quite difficult but if you study properly you can easily get a good score.

It has a good curriculum. It covers almost everything in life science.

Placements: Around 20-30 percent of students got placed as of now. 2 pharmaceutical companies came for placements. Other than that, people are mainly focused on pursuing a PhD, hence looking for their institutions.

Infrastructure: Personal canteen for CMB is not available. It has other amenities like Wi-Fi and labs (there are 4-5 labs, and all are in good condition). It has AC classrooms and labs as well. The library is available with all the related reference books. I have no idea about hostels, as there are very few hostels at CMB.

Faculty: I think faculty members are the best thing about CMB. The course curriculum consists of almost everything from physics to mathematics, chemistry, statistics, and all fields of life science as well, like immunology, cell biology, metabolism, stem cell, disease and disorders, plant tissue culture, proteomics, etc. Faculty members' guidance is at the top, and they have helped everyone with their dissertations and cleared everyone's queries about labs.

Other: There is a problem with events or campus life. I think that might be due to a small batch, but I would encourage students to be active and improve campus life.
