Course Curriculum Overview

3

The course entails every possible aspect of life sciences starting from molecular biology to bioanalytical techniques. Albeit, the theoretical aspect takes a front seat. One would expect to learn lab techniques but due to the limited time and high number of students hands on training isn't always possible. One would learn modern relevant topics like bioinformatics at least on a surface level.overall good structure but only if you are interested in a PhD and not an industrial job.

Fees and Financial Aid

2 years of the course had costed us 4000INR approx . Extremely affordable and also underprivileged students can apply for a fee-waiver and they will be reimbursed. No other charges or donations than the base fees.

Campus Life

4.5

If you are an artistic and social person who likes to make friends along the way, this place is for you. JU provides you with an extremely pleasant and warm environment where you could hit up a conversation with anyone about anything shile you chill at worldview or you could hang out around the playground during a hot summer evening . An extremely up to date Central Library will cover all your academic needs . There are 7 canteens around the camous so your lunch and tea breaks are sorted. There are multiple clubs like mountaineering , dance, singing, book clubs and poetry clubs. We have a basketball court which is never left empty and the department also conducts yearly picnics

Entrance exam is comoulsory. You will be selected on the basis of your rank. Try to score above 65% in the entrance. You should have a 75% on your bachelor's as well.

Faculty

3.5

The faculty to student ratio is good . we had 7 highly-educated faculty members who have their own labs and scholars working under them. Department had taken a special mentir-mentee program approach although it never culminated into anything , all whistles and horns. Interactive lectures and extremely helpful professors,seniors and scholars. Quality teaching althought placements are bleak .

Placement Experience:

Actually this is a general degree University , so I must mention that placement facalities are not so good. But yes , Job Fair is organised in University by some external agencies which offer jobs varying 2-2.5 lakhs per annum . But in the university most of the students do not accept that jobs. Half of the students are more interested on the higher studies. So ahet completing the fourth semester they prepare for PhD. And the another half are preparing for central government sponsored exams like CGL, CHSL, RRB, SBI , IBPS, LIC etc. University has a significant number of students who have qualified for Government Competitive exams.

Course Curriculum Overview:

My decision to choose this course depended on the fact that this course provides you with the opportunity to get various jobs in the industries with a high lpa. But this college does not help much in that aspect. All I had to do was myself. It is my humble opinion that the institution should improve its guidance in the area of its teaching methods. The exams were twice a year and were quite difficult on their own.

Biotechnology is a highly demanding course in today's world. The syllabus for this course is mostly around bookish knowledge and you have to gather outside knowledge on your own. There must be an internship for every student arranged by department itself in various other institues or labs for practical work experience.
