    East or West, SOA University is the best.
    Placements: The percentage of placed students is very low. Only 9 out of 58 students got placed. The highest package was 8 LPA, while the lowest was 3.5 LPA. The companies that came here were Accenture, Zifo, IDs Infotech, and Unacademy. No internships are provided from the college side.
    Infrastructure: Classrooms, library and labs are well maintained. Classrooms have digital boards to make this clearer in a better way. While labs also have proper installation of machines like spectrophotometer, laminar, etc. The hostel with such a low price is very good. Even though the food they offer is of high quality, they need to focus on hygiene. Even campus has a playground basketball court, etc.
    Faculty: Teachers are qualified, helpful and experienced. Approaching them is very easy. Yes, biotech is a diverse field; we can work both in the lab and in industry too. So they make us industry-ready. In case of exams, it is advisable that we focus on our study for 10 days prior to the exam. We can easily get above 9 CGPA.
    Other: Soa is not about Indian students; international students also come here to pursue there courses. I wish more placements and internships would be given. Annual fest events are organized at regular intervals.

    Happy to share my experience here.
    Placements: Currently, I am pursuing a Masters in Physics. We have placement options in M.Sc. but those are limited. As far as I know, last year, four-five of our seniors got placed in good companies. The highest package was 5 LPA and the lowest was 2 LPA. Students from technological colleges have a high chance of getting placements.
    Infrastructure: Our institute's infrastructure is quite good. Our campus is very well maintained and clean. We have a large and spacious central library. We have labs to do experiments. All classrooms are air-conditioned. Our hostel contains AC rooms and non-AC rooms as well. Mess food is average. We have a health centre as a medical facility.
    Faculty: Our faculty members are very interactive, experienced and well qualified. The quality of education is quite good here. We are given minor and major projects to develop research interests among students. Our teachers are guiding and supervising us in that. Semester exams are a bit hectic, as in physics we give exams in 2 subjects per day, i.e., 8 subjects in 4 days back to back without any gap. Apart from this, the semester grades are pretty good. There is a 99% pass percentage.
    Other: I am keenly interested in physics. Previously, I had heard about this university and that the education facility is really good. And we can avail of research experiences as well. That is why I opted to study here. Our syllabus is quite lengthy, but it can be reduced a bit. About scholarships, I am not very sure because I have not heard of any so far. Other facilities are good but the only thing is that we don't have enough space to organize festivals. This is the case at ITER 1 Campus 1. They conduct small events in the auditorium hall.

    Our campus is safe. It has good infrastructure and worth the money paid.
    Placements: This college focuses on Ph.D. courses rather than campus. If you are looking for a job then I would not recommend this college. Around 2 to 4 companies visit our college for recruitment. This year. TCG Life Sciences visited our college and 3 students got placed in this course. Students are eligible for placements from the 4th semester. The average salary package offered ranges from 3 LPA to 7 LPA. The top recruiting companies are Bharat Biotech, Accenture, and ZIFO.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure is excellent. Wi-Fi is not available. There are 3 canteens for snacks. All stationery shops are available on our campus. All classrooms are air-conditioned. Elevators are provided in this college. Laboratory is well-equipped. The laboratory assistant is very helpful. Classrooms are spacious. Around 90 students can sit comfortably in our classrooms. Our campus life is good. Medical facilities are provided by SUM Hospital for students and faculty members.
    Faculty: All professors are Ph.D. scholars. The course curriculum includes industry-related and research-related topics that make students ready for entrepreneurial activities. Semester exams are averagely difficult. The pass percentage is 40%.
    Other: Biotechnology course deals with life science so we study about different living being. The main motive is the betterment of mankind so I chose this course.

    I am satisfied with the college and its fee structure.
    Placements: In our college, almost 30% of students are placed every year. The lowest salary package offered is 4 LPA and the highest salary package offered is 7 LPA. Top recruiting companies like Biocon, Accenture, Bharat Biotech, etc., visit our campus. Almost 80% of students get internships.
    Infrastructure: The campus is very neat and clean. Our college buildings are good. Wi-Fi is available throughout the campus. Our labs are good and well-equipped. The library is available and has a good separate study area. Hostels are good, and regular cleaning is done. The food is very good.

    When you don't have a option.
    Placements: For post graduation students the placement offers are very less. The percentage of students placed is less than 10%. But if you are really determined then you can get one for sure. Work hard get one. Also there is a aptitude teaching section. All the very best.
    Infrastructure: Everything is very great and it's very good but in monsoons the college just gets flooded. The water drainage is the worst of all. But other infrastructures are very good. The cafeteria is also near by so you can enjoy your leisure times. So come and have a great time.
    Faculty: Teachers are very nice and helpful. The course curriculum is okok because they finish the entire semester course in just three months. So you can imagine the speed. And exams are neither difficult nor easy. It's just like other colleges. So come and enjoy.
    Other: I had done Bachelors in Physics so I've to do Masters and there is no other great option in Odisha. So I went for this. And all other things are good.
