Remarks
FRI is best environmental centric institute institute in Indian sub-continent. They offer a good quality of teaching, at an affordable price, with a marvellous infrastructure. On top of that, they also try to prompt students towards the environmental concerns.
Course Curriculum Overview
The course curriculum was carefully curated. It was aimed at making the students aware of the technical advances and learning new techniques in order to preserve the environment, specifically the forests. Botany was one of the most important subjects that we studied.
Fee Structure And Facilities
Institute has a decent fee structure. They charged me 60k annually for the master's program, which is at par with other masters programs. In total, I paid INR 1,20,000 for my master's program. Institute also offers some good scholarships to some of the deserving students.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions
College offer scholarship for the topper of each course. This scholarship is offered every semester. Award of merit is another award that is offered to the students. Apart from that, students from reserved categories, minor categories, in general, are also offered a concession in fee.
Hostel Facilities
Institute has many hostels, separate hostels for both boys and girls. They even have hostels for guests, like visiting faculties and research scholars visiting our institute. All the hostels also have the option of a common room among other facilities they offer.
Admission
The institute conducts its own dedicated entrance exam. Students who have pursued their graduation from the zoology, botany, physics background can apply for the entrance exam. If you clear the exam, you will be called for the interview round. The interview was a very tactical one, although I was very confident about it since it has been my passion to be an environmentalist.
Faculty
I am very thankful to our esteemed faculty members who gave us their, specifically for teaching us despite being busy with the extensive research work. All the faculty members were very qualified and had phd in their respective fields.
