- Irregular lectures and students are informed at the very last moment about the things happening inside the college or aint informed at all
Course Curriculum Overview
I chose this curriculum because i was interested in research field and to study about different diseases, their prevalence and prevention. This course helped to achieve what i looked for in this subject. Now i am doing masters' and now i understand how fine was the syllabus of fergusson college. Many things what students are learning here for the first time, i already learnt in my UG. Laboratories should be renovated to match the curriculum and equipments are comparatively old and less in number. College has continuous assessment during which students are evaluated based on their assignments (presentation skills), monthly tests and lastly end semester exams. Difficulty level is moderate, questions asked are concepr based.
Internships Opportunities
Sadly, internships are not offered by the college but students can do project under a specific faculty during their course duration. College helps students to search for internship by calling various companies for lectures to give insight about the work opportunities after the college.
Fees and Financial Aid
Fees is taken yearly and is around 55-60K INR for maharashtra students and for non-maharashtra students, it is around 80-90K. It include all the tuition, library, computer, exam and security fees.
