Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

The optometry course curriculum needs to be improvised. We don't get more practical knowledge from the University bcoz of the limited syllabus. In a semester we have 3 internals and best of 2 of that will be considered for theory subjects and all the 3 will be considered for practical subjects. Exams are pretty tough especially the clinics exams .

Internships Opportunities

4.5

You will have to do internship in your 4th year. Many hospital will be given and you can choose among them. The internship is pretty hard as you need to work for the whole day for a year . Always choose a best hospital for practical knowledge

Placement Experience

3

University offers placement. But it is more of optical outlet. If you are someone looking to work for hospital then you need to find it by yourself. This course is a 100% job opportunity one. You can either go for reasearch, you can work in hospitals, opticals, MNCs and you can even set up your clinic .

Fees and Financial Aid

You need to pay the fees semester wise. In one semester the fees will be ?19,910 and in the next semester it will be ?21,110 approximately. So this is a 6 year course and approximately you need to pay ?1,40,000 for this course. We do receive OBC optometric scholarship if you belongs to OBC. University also provides stipend of Rs 500-800 every month

Campus Life

4.5

The campus always have some cultural events. You will always be engaged in some of the other.The main attractive event of the campus is Sukhoon which is 3 day programme with cultural events and DJ and even students can put their own stalls and earn money. We too have 2 gyms and shooting ranges and football team, basketball, volleyball ,tennis court, badminton court etc. we also have a lot of clubs like dance and music , arts etc

Hostel Facilities

4.5

For hostels we have two types. The one which is an old one lacks lot of facilities and the ones which are new are pretty good . We have 2 persons in each room with 2 beds ,2 chairs , 2 study table and 2 cupboards . We will a mess secretary for each month and the menu of the food will be decided by the mess secretary. You will get the hostel once if your admission id confirmed and it is very affordable

Admission

People who have Maths, Biology, Chemistry and Physics background can apply for the course . They should have more than 60% in their 12th STD. The application form will be found in the central university website, where you can select the Hyderabad University for optometry. An all india entrance test will be conducted and top 26 will be rewarded with the seat. There are reservation for OBC, SC and ST and for physically handicapped people. Exam will be pretty much easy and will include the +2 topics

Faculty

3

We have a very few permanent optometry faculty which makes it very difficult to understand about the in depth topics. Facilities are very friendly and it depends on the individual about whether the facilities are approachable everytime or not

Placement Experience:

My course is a 3 years course and the students could try for a placement from the start of 3rd year. They would have enough knowledge about the outside world by that time and they could start to apply for jobs and companies that they desire to work for. In our stream there are many companies that have visited us like gala foods, Nestle, Calavita, National Biodiversity Authority, Dodla Diary etc. I do not have an excat idea about the packages but that would range across 8LPA to 14LPA. Almost every student around 95 % get placed into the companies and few also opt for government sector for Quality Control Management, FSSAI and etc. My plans after completing B.Sc in Food Sciences Technology would be pursuing Masters degree
