South Asian University: Worth it for money.

Placements: Currently, I am a 1st year student of M.Sc. biotechnology at FLSB South Asian University, New Delhi, India. It is an international university set up by all 8 SAARC countries. As it is a research-based university, its focus is not much more on placements. The university doesn't have a placement cell.

Infrastructure: Classrooms, labs, and a canteen are well-equipped with Wi-Fi and air conditioners. The food quality of SAU Canteen is one of the best. The hostel is an apartment type. Frequent cleanliness is maintained. The hostel campus has a health center.

Faculty: Faculty members are international graduates and well-trained in their fields of expertise. Exams are held frequently in every semester. Semester exams are a bit difficult. Semester exams consist of mid-semesters and end-semesters. In between quizzes, poster presentations, paper presentations, and assignments are given. The M.Sc. biotechnology course curriculum is very updated and designed in such a way that students can easily crack JRF, NET, and GATE exams.

Other: Faculty members of life sciences and biotechnology, South Asian University, New Delhi, India is one the best in our country, so I chose it.

If you're selected then please take admission. Better than JNU and DU.

Great educational facilities. Medical facilities were great having insurance of up to 1.5 lakh.

Placements: The institute doesn't provide professional courses and is actually more into research and academics. Hence, there are not much opportunities for placement. In my course, which is biotechnology, no companies come for placement. Although it provides a strong background to those interested in academics and research.

Infrastructure: Have excellent Wi-Fi, great Labs and classrooms with ACs and also a great library. The quality of the food in the mess is way better than the canteen. Hostel had a common room with TV and sofas, fridges and a microwave, and washing machines. Medical facilities were great having insurance of upto 1.5 lacs.

Faculty: South Asian University has great and experienced teachers with good profiles. All of them have their work published in renowned journals. The teaching quality is really very good. The teachers are always very helpful and can be approached. Very relevant course curriculum.

Other: I chose Biotechnology as I was interested in this area. Multiple events are being organised related to studies as well as extracurricular activities. Scholarship given to top 6 students based on merit. Main campus still under construction, current activities take place in Akbar Bhawan which is in Chanakyapuri.

Established after the 2000s but had good reach with people.

Placements: By observing, I had gotten to know about a lot of drawbacks from the side of placements. Even getting opportunities to work as an intern also requires a lot of fieldwork from students. Cryoviva Biotech, Micro Crispy Pvt Ltd, and other private techno labs are some average recruiters.

Infrastructure: The college is located in one of the hottest cities with heavy traffic, so reaching the college on time is not possible, even with a five-minute delay in getting ready. The college was established after the 2000s only, but it has reached people easily due to its history and achievements.

Faculty: The duration of a course is too short, but the experience in learning throughout the course is vast. Both the foundation and advanced level courses are given with the same method of teaching and with elite extra care and encouragement to the foundation-level students.
