What Students Say

Likes

The teacher are really supportive and you will have strict class.
The ambience the college is at a very peaceful place away from the chaos
Infrastructure is very good compared to other colleges

Dislikes

There is no ATM near by so students do pace problems regarding that.
One cafe and medicine shop so we have to go to the nearby city for important things
It is but far from the highway so you can't do anything immediately.

Course Curriculum Overview

The thing that made me choose this course was it's real life and future needs if this course I did my admission offline so I met the faculty members and then the teachers explained me the real need of this course. Even teachers will give you the knowledge of scopes and what can be done in the future. As this subject is practical based and need lots of handing one must practice to know and do the things smoothly.

Class Size: 21Course Fees: INR 262000 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

My annual fees 262k as this is a private college still comparing to other private college it is affordable. If you are really from a poor family the college provide concession and you can opt for government scholarships. The fees needs to be paid in three installments.

Campus Life

Annual fest of our college is known as x hilerate organised by the student council along with different cultural programs such as xtravaganza and ethnic day. We also have annual sports day on the month of January. The library is big we also have our departmental library. We can get PYQs from both the libraries. There are many clubs in the college like nature club, NSS, Women cell, AICUf these clubs organised many events for the students like tree plantation drive, awareness of school students on good and bad touch, Indigenous day celebration etc

Admission

I haven't applied any other colleges as I wanted to join a college near my home I was confident of my 12th marks that I would get the admission. For the admission the faculty members were very helpful.

Faculty

Our department always got the same number of students around 20 and less than 30. So there are 3 students as recently a teacher left and along with a lab assistant we have 4 teachers. The Hod is really good he teaches very nice and the way they interact not leaving a single person is really commendable. Before semester exam we have a internal exam as a replica of semester to understand yourself and the question pattern.

Night Life

The girls hostel is on construction and will be ready for the next year so the girls stay in pgs nearby. As for the boys hostel the time to enter hostel is 6pm. The college has a Central canteen as well it also local canteens of the local people.

NOT RECOMMENDED

Likes

Campus is nice. There's greenery and all
SOME of the faculties are really good and those said teachers will actually look out for you and care
Mentors are appointed for each students who are responsible for their final year project, publications and LORs. If you are lucky, you'll get a good mentor.

Dislikes

Classrooms are less compared to the number of students. Students have to wander around the building after each classes to find seats. Classrooms are very dirty
There's literally NOTHING in the labs. Experiments take way long to prepare and perform because reagents and equipments are never available.
Hardly a 2 week summer break (because of MAKAUT). Students cannot even apply to good internships because no lab would take in external students in july or august.

Placement Experience:

People who major in my department usually opt for masters over placement not because of this college but because overall industrial or academic opportunities are better with a pg degree. Masters from this college is not recommended as i have heard so from my seniors. Some of my seniors managed to crack competitives and secure MSc seats at great places. Training and Placement cell had a good coordinator previously but now its almost non existent. Companies do come and hire Bpharm, Mpharm and MSc candidates. Packages are below average. Only Nestle pays well. But if you do well you'll eventually climb up the corportate ladder. From the time i am here i have not heard of any BSc candidate getting placed. Most go for higher studies.

Good enough

Likes

The faculty members are knowledgeable and supportive. Most teachers explain concepts clearly and are approachable after class for doubts and guidance, which helps a lot during exams.
The college has a disciplined academic environment with regular classes and practical sessions. Laboratories are functional and help students understand concepts through hands-on learning.
The campus environment is calm and student-friendly. Various seminars, cultural programs, and academic activities help in overall personality development.

Dislikes

Industry exposure and internship guidance are minimal, which could be improved to make students more job-ready after graduation.
Infrastructure can be improved, especially classrooms and laboratory equipment. Some facilities feel outdated and require modernization.
Placement opportunities for BSc students are limited. The college focuses more on academics, so students need to prepare for higher studies or competitive exams on their own.

Placement Experience:

The average package offered for such roles ranges between ?2–3 LPA, while the highest package offered to a BSc student is around ?4 LPA, depending on skills and specialization. Overall, around 15–20% of BSc students get placed through campus drives, and many students rely on off-campus opportunities.

Likes

I like the campus , it is quite huge and green , the canteen has both cooked and packed food available, a seperate common room for students and many sports equipment available. Several functions are arranged along with international conferences held
All the faculty members are soft spoken , knowledgeable and friendly, it is easy to find help regarding anything.
Professors are strict about their syllabus and subjects , paying proper attention to the students. Practicals classes are conducted without fail.

Dislikes

There is nothing as such that I disliked because I am a first year student so I haven't been so much involved yet , I think that the washrooms should be cleaned properly to maintain the hygiene apart from thjs everything is fine.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Subjects offered in the college as well as the minor and idc subjects are well adhered to the curriculum and future aspects. The subject combinations are apt and futuristic. It moderately prepares one for real world situations.

Reasons to not apply for NSHM Knowledge Campus

Likes

The admission process was very smooth, the administration board is very helpful.
The library is huge and the content of books is very good
College life and fests are good but not great

Dislikes

Placements are absolutely bogus. There were almost no good placements when i passed out part of it can be blamed on covid but mostly the college was largely at fault
Faculty was not upto the mark in regards to the hefty college fees we were charged
Even during covid online classes we were charged full fee which is again absolutely horrendous

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum was well thought out as per me but there were subjects that i found absolutely unnecessary. Subjects like history evs and clc were in no way related to my course. Coming to the main subjects Design, Printing, Photography and film and Media Training were absolutely necessary for my course and whilst the faculty for some of these subjects were really bad, some were good. It is also important to mention none of these subjects actually helped us prepare for the real world. Instead internships and freelance helped us more than these subjects could ever do. Exams were held bi monthly to keep track of what we learnt and every 6 months we had our semester exams. Overall if you want to be a media professional INTERNSHIPS AND JOBS WILL HELP YOU MORE THAN A COLLEGE WILL. I am biased on this opinion as my college didnt provide me with the correct guidance and support i needed to make it in the real world.

Our college doesn't provide hostel facilities

Course Curriculum Overview:

* It's all about practical knowledge, we are getting from this course and another aspect is if you wants to make your career in research or lecturer then you should go for it. *No changes required in teaching methods but if college will provide hostel facilities and campus requirement drive, then it will better for candidates.
