Super Senior About Her College

This dates back to almost 20 years back, so I would say the course is not relevant with the present work field. I am not speaking only in terms of Biotechnology, but also the other courses have to upgrade themselves every year with new innovations and technologies, happening around the world. So, this is a common problem amongst every course and college.

There are many intership opportunities available in our college, but unfortunately, I do not remember them now. But, if you can verify with the current students, maybe they can provide a better information

From 3rd year 3rd sem, you are eligible for your placements. The placements drive was active in my college, and many of the students got placed in our college, with very good starting packages. The percentage of students getting placements was around 70%.

The year-wise fees that I paid during 2006 were INR 26,000 per year. I had paid the fees in 3 installments throughout the year. The tuition fees were INR 26,000/- and a caution deposit of INR 2,000 to INR 5,000 was deposited. The lab and development fees were all included in the tuition fees itself. The scholarships were being provided based on the merit achieved by the candidate.

The college infrastructure was great, as we not only had engineering college, but also pharmacy college as well. We used to celebrate annual festivals with great enthusiasm, we had rock bands those days itself. The infrastructure was great, with lot of greenery to breathe and feel fresh every second. We had big grounds for Basketball and other sport related. We also had student-run social groups, which were first-of-its-own, and were featured in many newspapers, for being unique and innovative.

I got an EAMCET rank of 24,000. Being a female, I was provided with many universities and options. But, Biotechnology being completely new course, had its share of pros and cons. I was not sure to pick which college or university, could provide the course in a better way. I picked TKR College of Engineering and Technology, as I felt it was within the city, and I did not have to spend much time travelling to college. I did not get rejected at other colleges, but, I did not accept them as there were too far from where I stay. I got my admission into this college, through counselling. The eligibility being was to get a good rank in the EAMCET. During, those days, the most preferred exams by students was EAMCET.

The faculty-to-student ratio was 1:30. The faculty was friendly and jelled well with their students. There were quarterly, half-yearly and annual exams. As I was into Biotechnology, I did not like the faculty of Electronics, as they were a bit rude with other department students.

Yes, we were trained for GDs, interviews and written test, as we had to crack for our placements. The actively studying groups were picked for all these processes. I would definitely win all the rounds, as I was provided with that kind of training.

As i was not staying in the hostel, I could not comment much about the nightlife around my college campus. Some, of my friends would say that they would enjoy their life at hostel, as they had Pharmacy and Nursing hostels nearby.
