Course Curriculum Overview

4

I had interest in zoology and chemistry and i wanted to study both of these subjects and then do masters in a particular subject among these two. That's why i chose this course to study both of them in my undergraduation course. Here, in DU, as per the new curriculum, we also have to choose some additional subjects to study. They help us in increasing our knowledge.

Placement Experience

2.5

2nd year students become eligible for campus placements. The placement cell of our college is not that good. It's quite okay for commerce and arts, but it's worse in science. It provides placements with average salary of INR 3.6 Lakhs per annum and that too only those students which have great CGPA can get it. Name of the companies visited are Sharekhan, India skill capital, Unnati, Livesberg technologies, Skillarena technologies, etc.

Fees and Financial Aid

The fee structure is quite okay . It's high as compared to other colleges of DU. Like in North campus, the average fee structure is around ?13-14,000 per year. And here the fee structure is around ?21,970/- per year(complete cost including tuition fees,service fees,etc.). But some south campus colleges also have high fee structure, for eg. in Institute of home economics, the fee structure is ?32,000.

Campus Life

3.5

Overall campus life is good. The college societies are active. We have various societies like the fine arts society, music society, dance society, photography, etc. We also have Aranyam(the life sciences society of shivaji college) of which am a part of. We have annual fests of all the societies and a main annual fest which is conducted at the end of the year.

Admission

The admission process is through CUET entrance exam. After giving that exam, we have to fill our preferences in the CSAS portal and then wait for allotments which includes 3 rounds first and then spot rounds for those students which could not get seats in the first 3 rounds. After getting the seat, we have two options either to freeze that seat or to apply for upgrade.

Faculty

4

The faculty-to-student ratio is good. We have experienced and qualified teachers. They are good and helping and provide us with all the necessary details and information regarding our exams. Classes are conducted on a regular basis and the teachers are punctual. We can easily approach them to ask doubts. We can ask doubts either in college during the class or on phone calls/messages i.e. they are easily approachable.

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for campus placements around 5th to 6th semester. Highest package of 2024 was 25LPA. Usually 8CGPA is considered a sweet spot for campus placements plus it gets them easier to get into world class universities for post graduation.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course Biomedical Sciences is very interesting as well as challenging, it covers various fields of sciences and has great scope in terms of research. The course connects theory with real world applications in hospitals and research laboratories. A few examples would include, antibacterial testing, PFT, EMG, blood tests, which are commonly performed in hospitals. The course also helps us to pursue our hands in research further by providing us with hands on training for skills such as biostatistics, writing scientific literature, lab skills, etc. A few improvements that I would suggest is the removal of outdated testing methods and practicals from the curriculum that are not essential for the real world currently. The teaching methods are quite good and interesting. The exams are conducted at the end of each semester and are relevant to the curriculum. The practical exams test your knowledge of hands on experience that you've gained while doing lab work. Theory exams are of 3 hours as per usual and test your theoretical knowledge from books and classes mainly.
