Entrance Preview

There was a special entrance exam for this program at Ferguson. I was one of the 24 selected candidates out of 400-500 that appeared for the entrance exam.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

Wide variety of subject based of knowledge gained during BSc Biotech. But there were some repetitions, but that's decided by the university. There could be added options to choose tracks towards a more specific side.

Internships Opportunities

That is something Ferguson could work on or for that matter all Biotech colleges in pune could work on. We had none of these opportunities. Pretty vital for the successful kickstart of a career.

College Events

3.5

Departmental as well as college level cultural events are a treat during December/January period. Chimera is the biotechnology departments own festival. These events also attract a lot of students from all over pune.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Not over the top expensive but still in the high half as far as fees are concerned. Back in 2010 when I started it was around 67000 rs. Fees for Biotech are in that range as far as I knew.

Campus Life

3.5

Love the campus, one of the best in pune according to me. Extracurriculars depends on the student (need a little push) labs in Biotechare okay, there could be more first hand research happening though.

Alumni/Alumna

No good network available pretty much students and teacher's will if they wish to be in contact. But there is good integration between all the students in the department, so that's kinda nice.

Exam Structure

Semester exams with 80% dedicated to university conducted exam and 20 based on internal performance in the college.

Faculty

4

Faculty was well qualified for the job. They were also very helpful and friendly towards students. They could may be add full time research faculty to promote cutting edge research.

Placement Experience:

Placements in Fergusson are pretty good. Students are eligible for sitting in the placement drives from the 3rd semester, we also get Pre-placment activities and tests before the drive starts. We get companies like Axtria, Vois , bluepineapple etc on campus. The highest package is 10 - 12 lakhs and 4-6 lakhs on an average. In my batch out of the 30 people we 20 are placed so far on campus.

Reviewed on Jan 22, 2025(Enrolled 2024)

Placement Experience:

The placements in the GIPE are decent. This year the highest package offered was 18 lakhs per annum by Deloitte and IDFC FIRST Bank. Although the placements are not 100% but it's around 60%. Students need to work hard and score well in aptitude test and they should start the preparation from the second semester onwards so that they can easily manage their end semester exams as well as the aptitude test. The average placement package is around 8-9 lakhs. My plan is to get a corporate job and gain some experience and exposure in the corporate world and learn how the things actually work. Many companies that come to the college are looking for data analytics role. The ratio of the companies looking for consultant, risk analyst is less based on market demand and other circumstances.

Final-year students are eligible for campus placement rounds. In our college companies like TCS, INFOSYS, CAPGEMINI, TIRUMALA OIL, and some local small companies held placement rounds for final year students from MCA, MSC, MCOM, MA, BA, BCA, BSC, and BCOM. etc. The percentage for placement is not average of 20-25% and the average salary offered by companies is 120k and highest salary is 400k and the lowest is 80k.

Placement Experience:

By the end of sem3 itself, the postgraduates are deployed into interviews for certain internships. But if you are with good academic scores and knowledge you can even get directly placed. Every individual is given 3 chances by the college to get and crack the interview but if the student is not able to then he is guided to where to apply but mostly ICRI makes sure everyone is placed as the college proudly stays with its 100% placement tag line. As I told here there are varied background people here with different needs of roles, the highest package I have seen getting is 15L pa to the lowest of 3L pa which even depends upon the company to your broad spectrum of knowledge. To specify which companies come here for recruitment are sun pharma, Cipla, and many more there are all 20+ companies that come and hire the intellectuals. To specify about me I am planning to get a CRC post as a start for CRA in the future.
