Good college with great infrastructure.

Placements: There are 20 students in our batch. The highest package is Rs 60 LPA which is earned under a fellowship by qualifying for the JRF exam. I am not sure about the companies but due to less opportunities in India under biochemistry people prefer to travel to foreign lands more.

Infrastructure: Our college has excellent infrastructure. It has proper Wi-Fi and library. Not so well-developed labs but classrooms are great. Staffs are very supportive. Food in the hostels is excellent as well as in the canteen. We have a proper sports facility here, and there are frequent games for all students.

Faculty: Most of our teachers are qualified scientists with great knowledge as well. Teaching quality somehow degraded in between but we managed to talk about it openly, and they improved. It does make students industry-ready. Semester exams are actually hard. But still last year pass percentage was 100%.

Other: I always liked the course of biochemistry and affiliated fields. It's very interesting as you learn the actual science here. You learn about yourself and before knowing the world outside and exploring the oceans and space we need to learn our winner selves maybe we find it all in ourselves.

A detailed review of Veterinary College, SKUAST-Jammu.

Placements: There are around 4-5 postgraduation seats in each department. Students receive decent salary packages ranging from 5 LPA - 1.5 crore per annum, in many pharmaceutical and feed companies like Intas, Venkys, and Mother Dairy. The university organizes academia-industry meetings to help place deserving students easily.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are digital and laboratories are well equipped with all the equipment for high quality research in pharmacology and toxicology. The college library is huge and contains thousands of books from all sectors of veterinary and animal sciences. Hostels offer single seater, double-seater, and NRI quota rooms, a gym, a mess providing decent food and medical facilities during office hours. There is a large playground for outdoor sports and a hall for indoor games.

Faculty: All professors are highly experienced in their respective fields of science, and most of them have undergone international training in countries like USA, UK, Australia, Japan and the Netherlands. The course structure is highly relevant to the field of pharmacology and students can secure decent packages in pharmaceutical companies. The course is a bit tougher than others but with regular study nearly everyone can succeed.

Other: Veterinary pharmacology is a vast field that offers opportunities in multiple domains, such as the pharmaceutical sector, government sector, academics, and central research organizations.
