Growing Up

College life anywhere can be tiring or easygoing depending on the person and how that person looks at life. there were many good points but also many bad points which I perceived as an individual but managed as a part of the group

KIITEE 2010. I dont know my score but I was 67th overallI chose this course because it would mean not wasting a year on doing/qualifying for M.Tech

The curriculum was more research based and in M-tech we had 4 elective subject to choose one from - food biotechnology, environmental biotechnology, nanobiotechnology, pharmaceutical technology and a compulsory elective - molecular basis of disease (including cancer biology)

The internship experience is good because of good labs and many students from other colleges/ inspire students from various schools, come to visit or work. There is no stipend facility as of now

The placement is not very good. It was better in other branches of the University but not in biotechnology. The packages offered were mostly 25-30K research/company jobs and some students were placed in institutes abroad with high salaries.(1-2 lacs)

Our branch had a techno-cultural fest once a year called Kinesis and we also celebrate other major festivals including the Republic and Independence Days

It was barely feasible for me but has increased over the years for the batches to come and now I would put it as expensive. (but they cover basic requirements like laptops and mattress/pillows/sheets etc in hostel fees)

I know of education loans for students but I dont know about the details. They would tell you at the time of counselling. Instead of taking yearly fees they split it every semester to try and make it easier for the parents

Yes there was a lot of room for interaction with other clubs and societies as a whole. The labs in the department were also very interactive and educative

The room is triple sharing and is adequate. The mattress, pillows, buckets, sheets, a blanket etc are provided, The food is average

Not much interactions with the seniors and alumni but they are very helpful and caring. many seniors stayed back in college and joined research labs as phd scholars or research assistants

The exams had sufficient gap as any more gaps and they would seem to drag. The labs and theory exams were consecutive. chilled out or not depends on individual preparation.

Most of the faculty were doctorates and some were eminent professors in the ir various fields. Most had ongoing research in labs in the college and helped us participate in them and encouraged a research/industry bioprocess oriented thinking. They also en
