SJU Bangalore Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

One of the reasons I opted for Biotechnology was to clear my basics in Biology and get ready for a career in research. One thing that was great about Joseph's were the labs. Despite it being a bit crowded due to the number of students in my class, the labs were designed to be project labs. We had the oppurtunity to come up with our own research questions and then use the facilities of institution to answer them. Most faculty in the biotechnology department have either industry or research experience. I quite enjoyed a lot of my classes on molecular and cell biology- particularly because we disscussed latest papers and literature on the field. We also took a course on "research methodology and scintific writing" - which was a good primer to how academia works.

Students are eligible for placements from 3rd year. The companies that visit are icici bank, hdfc bank, Deloitte, IBM, dell, google, jp morgan, and many more. The packages vary from 50k - 1l according to company and postings. About 70% get placed.

One batch of students typically has 5 placements. About 5%–10% of the students are placed through Wipro, the leading recruiter for our programme. The top positions available in our programme are lab technicians. Because of the disciplines, the placements for our course are not very high. However, things will become better after more research. After earning a B.Sc., professorship and research are the best career paths.

The course was a 3-year course and the subject that was thought in it were future-ready topics and had a lot of scope at the time. The class had a total of 20 girls and 30 boys. The faculties all were well qualified and had a few research papers to their name. The term examination was held timely and the topics that were asked were really important and difficult.

I chose this course because I liked the subject social and I like doing social activities and being social. I knew that this is what's best for me. All the faculties of my course and we'll educated and they teach the subjects well. First semester exams were online and the term exams were offline, it was a bit tough because the classes till then were online and for me personally online classes were tough because I won't be able to concentrate. But now since offline has started it's better for me.

From the 5th sem, we will be eligible for campus placement. 1 out 3 students get the placement I heard not sure as I am still a first year plans after getting a degree is to work in some auditing firm and go to London

All 3rd-year undergraduate students can apply for campus placements. students have been placed at Wipro, Infosys, HSBC, Tata teleservices, Convergys, transgene, ADP, Apollo Health Street, and many more. Around 50-60% of students get placements.6 lakhs is the highest and 3 lakhs is the average. I plan to take a masters in marine biology.

In the 6th semester, the students will be eligible for placements. The companies that come for placements are Ernst and Young, Google, PWD etc, on an average the salaries offered are 350000-450000 for BCom students. About 70/80% of students will get placed. After degree I am planning to do Cma USA to improve my skills.
