Shoolini University, renowned as the first Biotech University, excels in research with numerous patents. The campus is praised for its cleanliness and greenery. Admission operates on a first-come, first-served basis, and the faculty comprises around five head lecturers aged 25-45, facilitating small class sizes of about 30 students for better interaction. Esteemed faculty members include Dr. Lokender Kumar and Dr. Nitika Thakur. The curriculum emphasizes research and competitive exams, with three computer-based exams per semester.
However, it lacks industry-focused content, especially in areas like industrial microbiology. The university's fee structure is considered high, with a program fee of Rs. 50,500, although no additional fees are charged, and payment can be made via various methods. Transparency in fee breakdown is lacking. The M.Sc. Microbiology program costs Rs. 75,000 per semester, totaling Rs. 150,000. Scholarships can reduce this to Rs. 37,000 per semester. There are additional fees, such as a registration fee of Rs. 1,600, a security deposit of Rs. 10,000, and an examination fee ranging from Rs. 900-Rs. 950 per semester.
Scholarships include those for single girl children, merit-based, need-cum-merit, and defense scholarships. The application fee is Rs. 1,600, with a one-time admission fee of Rs. 10,000. The university boasts a strong placement record, with companies like Lifecell, Cipla, and Nestle visiting the campus. Around 20% of students secure positions in core companies, while most are placed in sales and marketing roles. Students become eligible for placements in their final year, with preparation beginning in the previous semester.
