Library is well furnished with lots and lots of book.there is well furnished chairs and table like compartments where students can completely isolate himself and study. There are thousands of books in library
Study room is provided at the top floor of the institute. It is really clean and there are separate room like compartments where students can study well. They can even discuss in group if they want
We have a cafe inside our institute. Here we can have tea and coffee to relieve ourselves

Course Curriculum Overview:

Doctor is a noble profession , the mere respect which we get by being doctor is one of the prime motive for me to pursuade this course Aside from physiology , anatomy and biochemistry we have a e t c o m which is a type of curriculum which is thought to us in which we learn to deal with different situations during our career and they also help us in terms of improving our communication which is very crucial In real life application . Personally for me the curriculum started on September and we had our first internals in January 2nd around March third round me and we had a final exams in August Honestly speaking MBBS is not an easy course , it is really hard, you need to understand the core, and then applied to even in theory and practical exams. concept

Inside look: Life at St. Joseph's University

So I chose this college based on its affordability and location. I applied to Christ University and I got through the interview & addmission exam easily but it cost too much for me. Per year the fees was 2L whereas in St. Joseph's University, it costs 1.10L per year. The university is also located in a transportation-friendly location, you can travel by public and private transport. The admission process in our college includes an entrance test which for me was an oral examination conducted by the professors of the college. The next step was an interview with the Dean. Both the rounds, personally, were super easy, interactive and fun....Read More
