Not that great as it sounds.

The overall experience is not good. The structure of the college is not maintained and the classrooms does not have any AC or any AV rooms. As it is required for the courses. The fee structure is higher as compared to the things provided by the college.

The yearly fee structure is 50 thousand for both reservation and general students. No scholarship have been provided yet or I know if. The fee structure is in different categories including field visit however they do not do field visit.

The basics about Punjab University

Faculty

we had approximately 65 students in our class, and we have many subjects, especially in the second year of Masters in psychology. In the first year, you have to study specific subjects such as cognitive psychology, social psychology, research and stats is a compulsory subject that you have to study in the first year and in the second year and we do have different professors, assistant, professors, PhD scholars. There are three professors to assistant professors, and 4 PhD scholars who taught us. In the second year, you have to choose three main courses that you want to specialise. In. For example, you have many choices like clinical, counselling, child, psychology, behavioural economics, health, psychology, media, psychology, positive psychology, et cetera. so based on your particular force, you will be assigned a particular professor. In second year, research and statistics is a compulsory subject. For me, personally, exams were easy to moderate. Mostly 80% students pass the exam.

There are many festivals activities, fairs that goes around in the college every year, and I would say every one to two months. Many singers, and many Punjabi actors may show up to promote their new movies and songs. The social aspect of the University is pretty great. The food is great. The areas are great. The campus is really beautiful to be around. the journal everything is extremely available in the library, which is open 24/7 for the students of Punjabi University. There are different types of fests conducted by various departments of Punjabi University, such as law department, chemistry department, IT department, geography department.

Beyond the brochures: An Honest Review of NIMS University.

There we celebrated every kind of festival like every festival of every state and also there were also students from Nigeria and Russia so we also celebrated there are festivals. Each and every department on campus has its own library so we can get easily books or journals according to our interests. There was also a sports club. You can easily get enrolled in any game as per your interests.

I was paying my fees yearly so in the first year I paid 170000 (20000 + 150000) because I had a scholarship of 50% deduction in course fees. And then paid 190000 in the next final year. My hostel fee was 150000 because I was in a double sharing room. My registration fee was 5000 and all other types of fees were included in the course fees.

I have been studying psychology since 5 years, in 11th, 12th and then in graduation. So it influenced me to study more about psychology. In today's world people are very much stressed, they are suffering from different disorders, so to help these kind of people i start studing psychology.

Faculty is very good, if you need any help regarding the course, you can approach them any time. The psychology department is very helpful, teachers are so good but some teachers are not good at teaching so you have to manage on your own or can approach to your seniors.

Arya Mahila PG college - not ideal, not best, but does the job.

The curriculum is set and maintained by Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi. Therefore, the curriculum is up to the mark. However, on comparison with other universities, it may be found that it is quite outdated and doesn't provide much exposure, and it is even faltering at research exposure. The exams aren't very difficult, but in my opinion, unnecessarily frequent, occurring almost every month. I would suggest the teachers try to teach like they mean it.

There are very few annual and technical festivals in the university itself, although students may go to BHU main campus for their various activities. There are routine workshops, talks and events organised by the faculty of individual departments which are very informative and insightful. Classrooms are equipped with a projector screen for presentations and such. Sports facilities are truthfully not very good. There are almost no student run clubs.

Placement Experience

In semester 3rd you become eligible for placement. If you don't get placement in sem 3rd then you can get your placement in semester 4th. Percentage of student getting placement is approx 60-70% sometime it's more than this. My plan after getting degree also try to get placement from this college.

9 out of 10 . because if your goal is UGC NET-JRF then this is the best college/institute. But if you compare this institute with D.U and etc then this institute have some shortcomings. But over all it's a one of the best institute for careers and well educated.

An insight into the DU campus

Curriculum was very scattered, didn't really benefit the needs of master's level degree students Less opportunity for real world interaction and sertings Too much importance given to practicals and theoretical knowledge The exams were held timely but were always stressful due the nature of exams

Different fests are conducted from different departments and students Each department has their own library, the central library houses a large number of books around different courses. Not much room for sport activities There are many social groups especially political groups are really active

The faculty to student ratio is 5:32. It has a negative impact on the learning experience. Teachers are not able to spend much time with students separately. All the faculties have completed their Ph.D. and also NET qualifiers. We can very often interact with teachers. They are very much approachable

The course that university is providing is basic and includes general information about all the necessary sub fields. The course should have included clinical psychology as special paper. We have total 4 semesters including 8 seminars.

Most of the faculties especially the female faculties are highly experienced and capable of teaching the specific subject or topic but the most of the male teachers don't have much experience and are so lazy and provide not very appreciative education. The faculty to student ratio is 1 professor for 100 students. The faculties are provided with new age technology to support the childrens in the projects. The teachers are not much interactive but not has a good approach of the subject teaching or the chapters

The student is eligible for placement from the very on 3rd semester the companies which provide placements are such that they are one of the most big companies as well as many mnc's such as Google and Microsoft. The highest package of this year is about 20 lakh the average packages almost 5 lakh . My plans after getting this masters degree age to do a PhD in psychology and become a primary teacher

IILM

All the faculty members are good enough and have their own teaching style. Faculty members are easily approachable and are helpful. Overall the learning experience is good. But one drawback is that they do not provide internships. Sometimes classes are not consistent due to lack of faculties.

Fees is higher than other colleges like Amity University. For MBA it's 12lac and they don't provide facilities that do justice to the amount that students pay. They provide 10-20% scholarships according to academic score of the student.

IISU: Experience

The course curriculum aptly covers all aspects of the subject that a professional should know. It prepares a person for real world too as there is equal amount of importance given to learning of theory as well as understanding the practical implications of what have been learned. A scholastic year is divided into two semesters. One semester includes coverage of 2 syllabus units after which the CA (continuous assessment) takes place. After the CA the rest 3 syllabus units are covered and then the Semester End Examinations take place. After the SEE, there is a break of around one month followed by another semester. In all, one Semester covers 5 units and overall the curriculum covers 10 units in one scholastic year in every paper code. This system allows to efficiently understand and learn about the required material without putting too much pressure at once.

Our current batch has a faculty to student ratio of 1:72 per paper code and there are 7 paper codes in total. It does not impact the learning experience much as not everybody is present everyday. The faculty is too good and very well learned in what they're doing. There has been instances when the learning methods of some teachers have not gone down well with the students and the HOD is always willing to hear out and understand the problems faced by the students. All teachers are approachable and provide time to time mentorship to the students to make them aware with the recent trends.

A decent and well reputed University

Fees is negligible in comparison to quality of education here. Most of the universities charge huge amount of money for the same course but BHU provide very low cost education. We pay 2900rs./ yr for MA psychology course.But they charge some service charges and few charges too at the end of every semester which is around 800rs. That is because of they provide many free services like medical facilities, bus facilities and many other facilities to students.

Overall experience is awesome in the campus. There is so much in campus facilities available for the students like free medical facilities in student health centre and in sunderlal hospital as well. They provide free bus services. Free wi-fi in campus. There are some student clubs which are organized by students one of them named PsyConnect which is doing a great work in the field of mental awareness.

University gave many placement offers also it is different which courses you have choose. Placement opportunities are good for engineering students and professional course students compared to us, but for placement we have to register and there would be a placement classes and additional fee would be also there. If you are not interested we can also not apply for the placements

Tution fee is different for courses but since they gave scholarship it is very affordable compare to many institutions and the value and quality is unbeatable. Fees are semester wise and exam fees are not included. After the entrance exam you have to pay a Rs of 10000 as a provincial fee. All the fee can be payed online also

CUPB Inside Out

I always liked psychology and that's why I chose it for my post graduation. The course curriculum in CUP is more leaned toward the research aspect of psychology, rather than clinical. There is not many application level subjects in the syllabus. The exams were conducted on time and they were fairly medium in terms of difficulty.

The campus life pretty much good. I would not say it's the best though. There is limited number of infrastructure and places where students can chill and relax. There is wifi available in classrooms and hostel. The University effectively conducts sports activities and annual sports meet.
