Course Curriculum Overview

The course is a blend of analytics and practical approach in addition to the theory which only makes a small portion of the entire curriculum. All the study material is available in the fully functional library which can be used to make self notes.

Placement Experience

4.5

The institute tries to provide as many placements to the students as possible with the average package of about 14-16 lacs per annum and the highest package in my campus was of about 25 lacs in Masters.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Th fee is nil, i.e the it is fully sponsored program like all the others. Besides, a monthly stipend is given to every student meaning you get money for studying. For masters, it is 5,000 and for Ph.D it is even higher.

Campus Life

The infrastructure is top class with all the available facilities to make students life easier. The classes are large and spacious. There is a facility of gym, mess, hostel, common room, etc. Proper career counseling sessions are also provided by the institute along with the workshops and guest lectures.

Admission

The admission process is quite simple, I filled in the online application form and attached scanned copies of all the required documents and paid the registration fee. I gave the entrance exam which took place on the date announced earlier.

Faculty

The faculty has a record of excellent academics from premium institutes across India and also has decades of experience in teaching and the research field with many research papers published nationally and internationally.

The Techno Experience

Likes

Practical Exposure with hands on training is always good for personal growth
The laboratories were well equipped with state of the art instruments
Entrepreneurship was encouraged and it really helped us with designing future start ups.

Dislikes

Lack of scholarships for the needy is one thing that needed to be worked on.
There was a distinct lack of encouragement to pursue extracurricular activity.
Sometimes it felt like it would have helped if we had a mental health counsellor onboard with the department.

Placement Experience:

Techno India University has a strong campus placement. Several students got jobs during the last semester, and I am one of them. Some others choose to wait for better opportunities. Some joined good startups. The package was nominal as we were all freshers. After getting my degree, I planned to pursue corporate experience and then join a lab for my PhD.

Exams are generally spaced well throughout the smemstwr allowing adequate time for preperation , how ever the frequenxy can sometimes be overwhelming particulary during peak study periods , but the diffulty level isnt that concerning and they are easy

A brief discussion on ISI, Kolkata

Reason for preferring this college over others: I wished to study statistics and Indian Statistical Institute (ISI) is considered to be one of the best institutes in India to study mathematics and statistics. That is why I decided to take admission here. Admission process:(I) The written exam includes an objective paper(UGA) containing 30 questions and a subjective paper(UGB) containing 8 questions. If a student scores above the cut off marks in UGA (which varies from year to year but is typically between 65 to 80 out of 120) then his/her solutions for UGB will be checked. (II) Suppose the student got x in UGA and y in UGB. If ax+by(where a and b(a<b) are specified but varies year to year) is greater than a specified cutoff, then he/she will be selected for interview. (III) If the student scores z in the interview and his/her total score ax+by+cz(c will be specified but is usually greater than a+b) is above a certain cutoff then his/her name will be published in the merit list. However, the final selection and admission will take place according to the rank on the merit list.Good aspects: The professors have clear and in-depth knowledge of the subject and they teach based on their research experience. Huge emphasis is given in the understanding of the basic concepts. Amazing collection of books and journals in the library. Scope to attend seminars on theoretical, applied as well as interdisciplinary research. The canteen food is good as well.Bad aspects: Too much academic pressure, you cannot afford to study only weeks before exam and have to study throughout the year, from every batch on an average 5 students have to repeat an academic year and 2-3 students get chucked out of the institute. Unlike many other institutes ISI does not have various clubs that can help one with their personality development....Read More
