Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

Pondicherry University is the first preference for my course under CUET for many students. Teachers are well qualified and very experienced. but the course curriculum is little bit outdated. topics and subjects are repeated throughout the semesters. In PU you can select different softcores from other departments ,but department wont allow us to take softcores from other depatments there by forcing us to study thing that students are not interested. most of the subjects are repetative.

Internships Opportunities

3.5

Last semester of my course is project and it is allowing us to go to different companies and do projects there. Department alawys inform us about diffrent internship programs and encourage us to participate

Fees and Financial Aid

Fee strucuture is around 44000 for 4 semesters . In first sem we paid 23000 and in 2nd sem it was 3000.For the last two sem fee is 17,270 . University is providing merit cum means scholarship for students who secure good marks . but if yiu are taking other government scholarships they denie this scholarship which is little unfair. Campus olacement is not there for our course but we can apply for placements that is common for all the students

Campus Life

4

Overall infrastrure of the university is good but our department is the worst . Our department is working in the oldest building of the university . often we encounter with animals that are harmful. Softcore are a way for students to meet and interact with othr department students as univewrsity is so vast. It helps students to know about departments other than theirs and make a good social connections which is denied in my case.Departments arrange programsand every festivals are celebrated here grantely . in terms of sports , physical education department is a very strong department but a common sports event is not conducted till know. University have good indoor and iutdoor stadiums and student here are well active in social works. As university being a 24 campus students life here is very vibrant

Admission

Admission process was through CUET entrance exam. I wrote two exams for same course. application fee was around 700 . I gave the exam after my ug . I got 200 marks in the exam and it was enough for me to get admission in any central universities under cuet. After applying for different universities i got admission in CUPB . AFter one month I got admission in PU in the second allotment under OBC reservation seat. First sem fees were very high here but admission procedures were very simple. But there very huge confussions in the date of physical admission.

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.

I don't have any particular reason to choose this course since I took BTech food technology in my UG I want to pursue something which is related to nutrition.
