Course Curriculum Overview

4

Microbiology was a relatively unfamiliar subject to me until I stumbled upon it while exploring biology-based courses online. Initially I didn't think i would like it but believe me when I say I loved it!! The reason I choose this course is out of passion for microbes and diseases and definitely not because it doesn't have maths (or maybe both lol!) The another reason I came to love it was because of the faculties. All the faculties are doctorates who has done PhD in this field you can learn a lot...really a lot!! From them.. they are friendly to the students and help you with anything like projects..or doubts on the subject.Exams are pretty easy to pass both the internal and university examinations as they provide you with all the study materials.

Internships Opportunities

3.5

For microbiology internships, opportunities in food industries and hospitals are provided. During the 4th semester, we embarked on an internship focused on food technology. It's worth noting that for stipend-paid internships, students have the flexibility to choose any laboratory or hospital for their practical experience.

Placement Experience

4.5

The placement at VISTAS is good, and all students without arrears can secure positions in well-reputed companies, with a maximum annual package of 3 lakhs per annum. From 5th semester onwards students are eligible to attend campus drive and they provided placement training, which prepares students for attending placement interviews—a very beneficial aspect, especially for those not proficient in communication skills.

Fees and Financial Aid

The fee structure for BSc varies based on the major you choose, and for Microbiology specifically, the tuition fees range from 40,000 to 43,000 per year. When it comes to accommodation, the hostel fees differ, with options ranging from 60,000 to 1,00,000 per year, depending on preferences for AC or non-AC rooms.It's worth noting that while the college itself doesn't provide scholarships(that I am aware of)there are opportunities for financial assistance from external parties. Students have the option to explore various scholarship programs offered by organizations, government bodies, or private institutions. Additionally, the availability of student loans provides them financial support to pursue their education.

Campus Life

4.5

Social life at VISTAS is Extraordinary!.you can have a an amazing social life at VISTAS.there many clubs, sports, art clubs etc to expand and show off you talents.. VISTAS gives equal importance to extracurricular activities as well.there are several famous people and influencers as alumins of vistas..

The library has many many books useful books you can not only use it for academic purposes but also for reading novels(only the historical novels such as Shakespeare and jane Austen don't expect romcoms and all!! ),self help books etc etc!!if you're a bookworm you're going to love the Library.The Campus is beautiful and well maintained!! Overall a decent campus.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum is relavant to the coarse,iam a nutrition student and I came to study abot nutrition,but I have also learnt about microbiology, food evaluation,food making,food safety rules,food entrepreneurship etcc which increases the variety of opportunities based to the course. Iam happy that iam learning about diet planning which is why I chooses this course. It really helps in real world opportunities as they allow intership s,practicals,practices, competition etc.. The area it needs improvement is the language skills of the professors as there are other states students there some people cannot understand tamil so they have to teach intwo languages. The timings of exams is not that bad there is one and half month gap between exams.

Remarks:

The infrastructure of the college campus is very good and peaceful as well. My college has a vast library which works from 8.30 a.m to 5.30 p.m on all working days and study holidays. Here if a student wants to borrow any other books other than his/her course, they need to seek prior permission of the Principal to get them books.
