Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

The NIRF ranking 2022 of KIIT is 20. It is one of the best private institutions to study Biotechnology. The faculty is quite supportive. They held guest sessions with the alumni to learn about their career choices, whether someone wants to go for a job or higher studies, it helped a lot to decide on a career. M.Sc consists of four semesters out of which the fourth semester is quite interesting, students get the chance to perform their dissertation work in the university as well as outside the university. It gives you a chance to explore the research world. The university is very strict with the time and date for exams, and holidays. They go according to the curriculum plans given in the start of the semester and that was a great thing.

Placement Experience

4

My University provides campus placements. Placements start at the start of the third semester. Nestle, zifo, Virchow Biotech, Enzene, and many other good biotechnology visits for the campus placement. Most of my batchmates are currently working in biotech companies with good salaries. The highest salary offered was 4,80,000 per annum and the average salary was 2,50,000 per annum. my plan is to pursue a higher degree; Ph.D.

Fees and Financial Aid

According to me the only thing which I did not like about the institute was their high fees. The charges for M.Sc Biotechnology or any other courses are quite high. I almost spent more than 5 lacs on my Master's over two years that too in online mode. after getting admission mail, you need to deposit 75000 rs as a counseling fee. out of which 10000 is counseling fees and the remaining 65000 is for laptop. The university provided me with an HP ProBook laptop. They do not take it back. They provide placements for Biotech students that's a very positive thing that convinced me to enroll myself for a master's but I did not go for campus placement because I wanted to go for higher studies. highest placement from my batch was 4,80,000 per annum.

Campus Life

My master's was completely in online mode so I have not visited my institute. But they have conducted freshers, independence day, Basant Panchami, and many other occasions in online mode. The institute has many societies for music, dance, writing, etc.

Admission

An entrance exam termed KIITEE for admission in the Biotechnology and Applied microbiology stream for masters. I secured AIR 127 a few days after receiving their email that I had been qualified for admission. you can go through the website kiitee.kiit.ac.in to get each detail about admission, eligibility, etc. The exam is held in online mode for 2 hours. the paper was moderate. There is no application fee to appear for the exam that's a plus point.

I choose this course because I much interest in it. Student faculty ratios is good as per availability. Professor are available most of the time. They are all very qualified and are hired as per the minimum requirements criteria of the college. Exams are semester-wise and happen biannually. It's difficult to pass the exams if you don't study properly throughout the year.
