Himachal Pradesh University- my second home

Likes

University has a central library which is the USP of this university. The library remains occupied all the time. Library culture is great here.
Since it is one of the biggest University in state so it is culturally diverse. You come across different cultures of different districts of Himachal Pradesh. Cultural events happens through out the session.
Being a government University the fees is very nominal and if you got a hostel here then your monthly charges will be very few. Also being in Shimla the university has the best environment and great climate except in monsoon.

Dislikes

Courses are still old traditional ones. They are unfit to provide jobs for students.
University has a poor management of exams. Conducting exam after 3month of semester.
Irregularities in results sometimes. Late results may pise some difficulty

Course Curriculum Overview:

I personally dont find curriculum effective. No relevance with day to day life. We are just fighting with theorems everyday without even knowing their application and teachers are also not delivering them with the application part. Curriculum should be more practical and applied. Teaching methods are also traditional chalk and talk method .... Every classroom is equipped with smartboard but they are just showpiece no one is using them.

My views on SILB

Placement Experience:

No such placements are offered for at least my course. May be for BBA students and Other life science classes. My plans after getting a degree are to qualify for the National Eligibility Test conducted by CSIR. Also want to clear State Eligibility Test. After that, I want to continue my studies in PhD.
