Is Vignan University, Guntur a good college for a B.Tech in bioinformatics or a B.Tech in biotech? How good are the placements and scope for higher studies abroad?
All the private universities in India, except maybe 2–3, are trying their level best to establish themselves and Vignan is no exception. If you are considering joining the university then you should know the following.
- Fees are high so plan well before joining. For a 4-year long B.Tech, the total course fee is around 9 lakhs.
- Second, the syllabus keeps getting updated each year. This makes covering the syllabus, a bit tricky.
- The same faculty will set the question paper so I think getting through with good grades won't be an issue.
Finally, you should join biotech only if you wish to study MS abroad. Otherwise, don’t join the institute.
What are the options available for an MBA graduate from IIM to settle in Visakhapatnam?
Your job prospects are directly related to your line of specialization and the related opportunities available. It all depends on the companies whose requirements match your profile.
Many small cities and towns still lack job prospects for an MBA graduate even if he has the degree of an IIM. So it’s better you grab the best opportunities during the final placements itself. After that, depending on your performance you can climb the ladder and avail a plethora of job opportunities.
So if you are planning to settle in Visakhapatnam your prospects are a little bleak because it is a small city.
