M.Sc. in Chemistry - Batch of 2023

Offered by School of Basic Sciences, VELS Institute of Science, Technology and Advanced Studies

2.2

Absolutely dissatisfied with the college and staff.

Placements: About 2 percentage of students were placed in our college. Quintessence business solutions was the main recruiter of placements. M.Sc Chemistry offers jobs in R and D labs and quality analysis in companies. Many paint companies are in need of chemist for quality checking .

Infrastructure: Classrooms have better infrastructure but college doesn't live up to the expectations of the students. Lab is the worst when compared to other colleges. Network is not even properly obtained in the college premises. Sports days is held in the month of February but competitions are only held after the college working time and students won't be even aware of the sports day.

Faculty: Teachers have Ph.D. and high qualifications but students should be able to self regulate themselves in the field of studies. M.Sc. Chemistry offers a wide range of opportunities. Many companies require Chemistry students in a variety of fields. Exams are easy to pass and we can score high marks.

Other: M.Sc. Chemistry is a course that offers wide range of opportunities. It is one of the highly paid jobs.

It is a good college for middle class students.

Placements: Placements are provided in the final year. It is a very good college for placements. Cognizant, Wipro, and Zoho visit our college simultaneously to hire students in their final or 5th semesters.

Infrastructure: Food served in the hostel is not good many times. Rooms and restrooms are good. Everything is good and clean. Sometimes, food items are very poor compared to other hostels and colleges.

Faculty: Faculty members in our college are very good. They teach everything in our college like how to survive and mingle with everyone. It is a very good college in Chennai.

M.Sc. in Chemistry - Batch of 2018

Offered by School of Basic Sciences, VELS Institute of Science, Technology and Advanced Studies

4.0

I am satisfied because of good placements in 2018.

Placements: Placements in the college are decent but do not expect high salary packages. Overall, the average salary package offered is 2 LPA. However, you will get many opportunities to gain knowledge of chemistry subjects. This institute is new and is strongly increasing its strength day by day. Overall, the college is very good at providing a job for freshers.

Infrastructure: This institute provides different buildings for every department. Facilities are okay. It has a football ground where you enjoy along with studies. Classrooms are clean enough. They offer Wi-Fi and AC facilities in each block. Students are very cooperative and friendly. It provides free medical facilities for all students.

Faculty: The best aspect of this university is its teachers. They are highly qualified and knowledgeable. They are always ready to help. They follow the most advanced ways of teaching and use PPTs. They help us to get industry exposure. This institute has different buildings for self-development where you can develop yourself easily.

Other: The campus surroundings are very clean. The connectivity is good, and one can reach the college by bus, train, or using Ola and Uber. It is very near to the international airport which is less than 5 km away.

Its your own interest to learn.

Placements: The placements are not that much good. They not bringing the company what the student expected. They are bringing companies like policy taker. Placement us not that much good here. NO good roles offered. No good salary package offered.

Infrastructure: Good infrastructure but not that much great in infrastructure. Its most likely you are in the school. The events they conduct is the best one like nakshatra and other functions are great. The teaching staffs are not always ready to teach the student.

Faculty: The staffs they are great in teaching but not that much good at that. Because they just want to finish the syllabus. But some staffs are sincere but some come to college for salary, not for the profession. The college is improving them year by year.
