Campus life often offers a vibrant social scene with opportunities to meet new people, make friends, and engage in various social activities. This can include attending events such as concerts, movie nights, cultural festivals, and sports games, as well as participating in social clubs, organizations, and student government.

Hostel Facilities

I'm currently staying in a hostel on campus. The hostel provides shared rooms with bunk beds, desks, and wardrobes for each resident. Common areas include communal bathrooms, a kitchen, a TV lounge, and study rooms. The hostel staff organizes various events and activities to foster a sense of community among residents. Additionally, the location is convenient, allowing easy access to classes and campus facilities. Overall, the hostel provides a supportive and social environment conducive to academic and personal growth.

Hostel Fee: INR 15000 per year

Admission

The admission process varied depending on the institution and program. Generally, it involved submitting an online application form, providing academic transcripts, letters of recommendation, and sometimes a statement of purpose or essays. If there were entrance exams, they typically included subjects related to the field of study, with cut-off scores set by the institution.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Because it was rare. Not many colleges offer this course. So the certificate has its value. Curriculum doesn't necessarily prepares you for real world applications, but you have to opportunities to develop skills. You can work with phd scholars , they are all very friendly and let's you work with them and learn. The curriculum could be improved by introducing more about fisheries, currently the syllabus focus on oceanography, biochemistry and other laws or policies.

Studying in a vacation town

Course Curriculum Overview:

The most important point is it's similarity to NET CSIR joint examination. After the end of 3 semesters, if you study properly, you will be able to solve 70% csir c section with accuracy. As laboratory is not prioritized, you will have to struggle for real life experience. But inside info: you can tag along with scholars to get the hands on experience. Frequency of examination is too much with all the internals and all. Difficulty level is manageable as per masters.

Then my next option was Pondicherry University, the prime reason I came here is because of the course. Clearing CUET examination is required for the admission. Physics chemistry and biology are the required subjects for the entrance exam. The cutoff marks are generally not that high and also there are a majority of students who get into through spot admission....Read More
