Our university is good, and you can learn many things here.
Placements: In my class, there are a total of 35 students. ONGC, Coal India, etc., are the top recruiting companies for our course. I think every student got an internship from our course in ONGC, Dehradun, PRL etc. We have to learn so much on the field via field work to gain practical knowledge.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the classrooms is good. There are two classrooms for M.Sc. students, and one of them is a digital class (smart board). There is free Wi-Fi and AC. The museum is very good in our department. The library is open from 10 am to 5 pm. Medical facilities are available. The quality of food is average. In the hostel, we enjoy so much.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful. They clear our doubts. Some teachers are the gems of our department. There are a total of 35 seats available in M.Sc. geology. Semester exams are moderate. There are a total of 4 semesters in M.Sc. In every semester, there is a mid-term paper and assignment of 30 marks, and semester exams are of 70 marks. 33 marks are the pass marks.
Other: I chose it because I am interested in geology, and we can easily understand and protect nature. We can easily contribute to saving our nature and also for knowing how the earth was formed and other factors about our earth.
