What Students Say?
Likes
- Things I like about Isabella Thoburn College was the chemistry department of the science building . The teachers of chemistry department are the best ones there , very helpful and also providing so many useful information.
- Attention to detail: The best thing is that we were never left confused or with anything.We were provided every information with details.
Dislikes
- Practical files : As we are bsc students, practical files are a must .And obviously we have to make them,but the amount of pages teachers give is insane . For a practical file of 10 marks we are drawing and writing 150-200 pages per subject .
- Canteen : The hygiene should improve in the canteen .Also they don't have any good thing to eat too.
Course Curriculum Overview
I would rate the course curriculum 10/10. I choose this course because a bsc degree gives you too many opportunities to do specialization in any field like zoology botany chemistry. Many BSc students choose to pursue further study, which can lead to a more specialized job with better salary, success. Bsc biology prepares you for Research and development: You can work in the pharmaceutical, healthcare, education. You might work as a research assistant, research technician, or clinical researcher. Education: You can teach biology at a university or work in postsecondary education. The improvements required in the course curriculum and teachings methods are : To focus more on helping the student understand the theory well rather than giving them a big practical file to make . The frequency and timings of exams are perfect. Odd sem are held in November,they are theory papers and are of 3 hours .The even semester exams are held in May and are MCQ based questions and are of 1.5 hours.
Internships Opportunities
I have no idea as I have never applied in any . The chemistry department teachers run a placement cell to prepare student for interviews and jobs . They make you understand now how to make your resume like a pro. They focus on building your communication skills and other things . It is known as IT CAREER COUNSELLING AND PLACEMENT CELL. Iam willing to join it soon .

Campus Life
There are many programs in the college that are celebrated like the Arbour Day, Christmas and many more. The library contains a variety of books of every department. The facilities within the classrooms are just okayish. They offer a wide range of sports and extra curricular activities, you can participate in the dancing, singing , acting , skit competitions and even in the cricket competition and tug of war etc . There is a group and insta handle named it college run by a student . She post her journey through college life.
Admission
I was thinking to apply in the Lucknow university. But after seeing the competition there I thought I wouldn't give it a chance. So I only applied to this college because Isabella Thoburn College is one of the best known and popular colleges of Lucknow. I choose this college in the first go as I had complete trust on the education and facilities. The admission process is simple , you can apply online or take the offline admission form from the college after checking the eligibility for taking addmission in bsc biology you must have scored 55% above ,after filling the form you can submit it and then you will be asked to keep on checking the college website for the entrance exam date . Now you have to download your admit card if you applied online, or if you applied offline you were given the admit card with the form .Once you gave the exam , wait for a week or longer until your result. Log in and see your result. You will be given a regular seat or self finance one.
Faculty
The faculty of science include the zoology, botany and chemistry departments.All the faculty members are available anytime you need them, they are always there to help you out with anything . The faculty I like is the chemistry one.The teachers are super good. There way of teaching and explaining things is too good .I like them because they focus on building and shaping the students future. The faculty of chemistry also inform about so many useful things like this relaince scholarship and other job and internship opportunities. They are total 6 exams, 4 of which are theory papers and 2 are practical exams .The college is basically affiliated with Lucknow university, so the question paper comes from there, that is neither too hard nor too easy. Many students pass the exams but there are some who find chemistry a bit difficult and thus ended up failing in them. The course curriculum is as it should be . It is upto the mark .
