The course at this central university focuses on nutrition, open to students through an entrance exam merit list. Faculty members are highly qualified, with Ph.D. degrees and extensive research experience, providing a supportive learning environment. The academic year is divided into two semesters, each with structured assessments including internal and semester exams. The tuition fee for the first semester is 23,000 INR and 4,000 INR for the second semester, with subsequent semester fees being approximately 13,700 INR for the third and 3,200 INR for the fourth.

Hostel fees range from 12,432 INR to 16,048 INR per semester, while daily mess charges are 78 INR. Scholarships are available for high-ranking exam entrants, with amounts ranging from 750 to 10,000 INR. Despite no campus placements, the course offers internship opportunities with food companies and hospitals, helping enhance practical knowledge. Project work is integrated into the final semester. Although higher than typical central university fees, this is lower compared to MBA programs at around 66,000 INR.

Students can also access national and state scholarships, including the NSP for merit students, but the college does not offer loan facilities.

Life of college

The year wise fee I paid here in the university 23 k as a semister fee and 28 k as mess fee. And for the tution and lab fee I paid 2k for the first sem. For the SC and ST students University gives time period to pay fee . For the spot attended students they have to pay fee at the time of spot Admission. My batchmates and me have same fee. There is no any difference in that. They don't have time period to pay fee , they paid fee at the time of joining. Students get NSP and their State scholarships.NSP is for merit students and state scholarship is different for different student according to their State.

Experience with Pondicherry University while completing a master's degree

Once the fees are declared for the course, it most likely not be hiked for the students. However, the mess fees depend on the service providers associated with the university and can be changed. There are plenty of central scholarships available for the students. However, most information is declared by the department for the students to apply for. I haven't received any job, however, assisted by the professor in for applying a 6 month's internship at Delhi AIIMS.
