Inside KUFOS: a student's perspective.

Dislikes

  • It doesn't have a cafeteria or cafe inside the campus

Course Curriculum Overview :

The course is multidisciplinary because it deals with all the aspects related to fisheries science starting from fish taxonomy to many subjects like therapeutics, economics, microbiology etc. The curriculum is prepared in such a way that we can apply what all things we studied into a practical aspect. The teachers are well qualified and all the classes are very well taken. The exams are conducted at the end of each semester. There are 8 semesters out of with last 2 are RFWE( Rural Fisheries Work Experience) and ELP (Experiential Learning Program).

Internships Opportunities :

Interships can be done during the final year as a part of our RFWE program or can be done during the course period. BFSc students mainly do their internships in 2 domins ie Aquaculture and fish processing. RFWE is partially funded by ICAR and state government. We can do paid internship as well as unpaid internships. We can do unpaid internships at Centra institutes like CMFRI, NIPHATT etc...

Placement Experience :

In KUFOS we have a campus placement cell which is formed with the students and faculties each year. The students become eligible while they are in their final semester. The companies visiting differs per year and also the salary package.

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

The tution fees are 9000 and 10000 in alternate semester. But for reservation categories and children of fisherman the course is completely free. The scholarship mainly provided for the students here are the e-grants and merit scholarship.

Campus Life :

The campus life is so vibrant. There will be many programs conducted by the students union, NSS and NCC at the college.Library is open till 9pm for students. Sports and arts meet are conducted annually. Lab facilities are available at the college. The main mode of teaching is through the smart class and with the aid of projectors.

Hostel Facilities :

KUFOS have their own hostel for UG and PG students separately. Hostel is very clean and feels more like a home. The mess menu is handled by the mess committee formed by the students. The hostel is allotted by the assistant warden and matron based on the application forms given by the students. Men's hostel is within the campus and women's hostel is near to MBA block.

Admission :

The basic eligibility is NEET entrance exam and ICAR examination. For keralites you have the KEAM ranking according to which the admissions are provided, for non keralites you have the ICAR rankings. The application form will be available through the KEAM site. The cut off depends on the average score of the examination on that particular year. Reservation benefits are available for all reservation categories. For the children of fisherman many other scholarships are also available.

Faculty :

For BFSc course, there are mainly 7 departments, each department have many faculties. Courses from each department are handled by the teachers who have more knowledge about the subject. The teachers are very professional as well as friendly, we can always approach them for any doubt clearance or any other academic related queries. Teachers are more practical oriented but they do handle the theory part well. We will get more exposure by practical based learning.

Admission:

I applied for the ICAR AIEEA UG exam and sat for the written test. After qualifying the ICAR AIEEA I applied to the university. I was looking to pursue a bachelor's level program in the domain of fisheries and since this university was a specialised one in the respective field I opted for it. After grant of admission I was called for document verification and procedural formalities to complete the admission.

Placement Experience:

In terms of placement one can explore opportunities in government and private sector. Most of my seniors have got into the research and development in relation to the domain. The placement cell provides support however mostly it's on our. Internship opportunities are provide however one is free to get the internship done on their own.

Remarks:

The college needs to do better in the placement department. While it might get few employment but most of the students have looked for the job themselves. The institute must play a part in giving employment opportunity to the students.
