The best university of my life, Sikkim University.

Placements: I will have completed my Masters in Physics from Sikkim University in 2024. About 10% of a batch of 50 students were placed. The package was in the range of 4-6 LPA. The top recruiters were coaching centres like Aakash, Physics Wallah, and Bansal. About 10% of the students got internships, which included paid internships in different countries such as Taiwan and China. A Masters in Physics opened multiple opportunities for the students to pursue their careers in different fields, such as research work, teaching professions, and engineering.

Infrastructure: The hostels are really good, and some old hostels are bad. Hostel rooms have two beds, a chair, a study table, almirah, fans, no AC. There are also washing machines and dryers on every floor. Mess food is average. They serve food 4 times a day, and the menu keeps changing every day and every week. They offer fruits, eggs, milk, bread, and other things also. Hostel registration is done along with academic registration only.

Faculty: I want to become a faculty of botany, so I chose the Masters in Botany course for my higher studies. The curriculum prepares students to gain good knowledge about the subject to deliver the knowledge to other students after completion. However, it would be more beneficial if some NET/SLET-based guidance was provided along with the course.

My overall experience was really fun and stimulating.

Placements: They have a placement cell where you have to register yourself to get updates about companies. Most of them are IT and management-based companies. The job profile was basically that of a salesperson. Many new companies have approached for placement. The minimum package offered by most of them is more than 2 Lacs.

Infrastructure: The hostel facility is decent and worth the value for money, considering the mountainous terrain of the state. The hostel is available as a 2, 3, and 4-seater/sharing room. The fees for the hostel are on average 8k per month, including the mess food. I have heard there are many new buildings in the making that will provide more comfort for the incoming students, making them feel right at home. In case the hostels get filled up, there are PG facilities available just around the college with monthly fees around 8-10k, along with food.

Faculty: I chose botany because I have always had an interest in sciences related to life but rejected Zoology because I cannot handle the dissection of animals. Botany is also the subject I love the most, and its practical aspects are easy to perform at home. I have a special interest in medicinal plants. The faculty is sufficient to take classes for both years, with three teachers for two classes. So, I can say the ratio for faculty to students is nearly 1:25. The teachers are well-qualified with Ph.D. and qualified in SET, GATE. Teaching methods are good, relating to day-to-day life and keeping the focus on the syllabus. Examinations are held every 2nd month, and in between these tests are also conducted. Examinations are moderately challenging with a mix of tough and easy questions. Class size: 60 Course fees: INR 8000 per year.
