There is nothing as such to dislike about the college

Course Curriculum Overview

I had a keen interest in biology that's why I chose this course. The curriculum prepares really good with hands on experiences in lab to work for the real life problems. We have two exams in each semester and sometimes presentations.

Class Size: 19Course Fees: INR 29000 per year

Internships Opportunities

Internships are offered by almost all of the labs here where students from any institute can come and do internships or project work. They can also come here for dissertation and thesis. Project assistant positions are also there.

Placement Experience

Campus do offer placement but it is more research oriented so students prefer to continue the higher studies rather than choosing placement. My plan is also to ago for phd and then post doc to pursue research.

Fees and Financial Aid

The annual fee for the academics is around 29000 for Gen/OBC/EWS and 20000 for SC/ST. There are financial aids for the Us as we get 16000 stipend for the masters and then 37000 jrf for phd and 42000 srf

Campus Life

The campus life is quite good. We have several fests including Pravega and Rhapsody the centres of that. Books and journals are easily accessible via library. Classrooms are equipped with digital display and air conditioning

Hostel Facilities

The Hostel facility is quite good with minimal charges. In the room we get table, chair, bed, fan, cupboard and a balcony attached with room. Meal quality is very good. Registration process for these are quite smooth.

Hostel Fee: INR 14000 per year

Admission

This is the most reputed institution of india that's why I chose this college. I applied in IIT Bombay and iit roorkee as well and got selected in iit roorkee. The admission process of my college involve IIT JAM exam and then personal interview.

Faculty

Faculty to students ratio is quite good. Students can approach students anytime they are quite approachable. We have two exams mid term and end term each semester and they are based on whatever we do or learn in the classes.

Interview Experience

I secured AIR 109 in IIT JAM-BT exam and then called for interview. After clearing the interview I got the offer letter. The process is quite smooth where you first have to appear for a national level exam and then interview.

Night Life

Nightlife is very good, you can roam around in the campus anytime in the night. Cafeterias are open till 4 AM. Hostels are open all the time with security guards there. Famous hangout places include main building, sarvam complex, Gymkhana.

Placement Experience:

Since its a job where a lot of experience is required. Students mostly go for higher education or research. So they do give us job opportunities and offers. But there are fewer students who opt for it.

IISc at a glance: An Institute with a Legacy of Excellence

I applied to IISER Kolkata and got accepted. The choice was governed by IISc having a better ranking and being further away from home. No. I did not apply to any other colleges. Right now, officially, the two entry exams are JEE-Adv and IAT. In the past, KVPY, JEE-M and NEET were also options. Cutoffs vary every year and since this is the first year with only JEE-Adv as the exam, it is difficult to guess where the cutoff would be. The admission process is quite smooth. Or at least it was when I joined....Read More
