Course Curriculum Overview
The course curriculum is student-friendly. I chose Biotechnology because it's an interdisciplinary course along with 40% electives. The faculty members are highly qualified and supportive. They are Ph.D. degree holder and have more than at least 10 years of teaching experience. Their teaching method is well-defined and accurate. They have deep knowledge of their respective domain. In one semester, there are two quizzes ( one month gap) and then the end-semester exam. Examinations are not difficult, everything comes from the syllabus itself.
Internships Opportunities
I don't have much knowledge about the above as I am in 1st year. I don't have any internship experience. Please refer to the college's official websites to get the details of the internships. Further, one can also apply for internships as per their interest through the respective companies.
Placement Experience
The placements are great in IIT Madras. Mostly, 4th year grads are eligible for campus placements. Various tech companies like Google, Microsoft, Facebook, etc. visit every year. The percentage of students placed is roughly 90% with some others pursuing higher studies and career fields.
Fees and Financial Aid
The course fees are nearly 2 lakh per year(excluding hostel fees). Also, it varies with the category of the students. The whole details are available on the respective college websites. Firstly, the government grants scholarships according to the students' categories. Secondly, it provides MCM (merit cum means) scholarship. It also allows scholarships to meritorious students as per their grades. .
