Pondicherry University Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

Marine Biology is being a more relavant course nowadays. I consider field work amd experience as important aspect for marine biologist. University provide oppurtunity to explore the ocean up to an extant other than other universities.

The course Master of Science in Marine biology offers you the vast studies of ocean.The first sem will get you adapted to the studies as it comprises Physical Oceanography, Chemical Oceanography, Biological Oceanography and Marine ecology. The course comprises four semesters with practical and theory exams and an individual project at last exams. The course can improve in the sense that it should include more field studies rather than classroom studies and exams and breaks should be given accordingly.

Curriculum of this course is very good the syllabus includes all the topics one need to know about marine environments and also the exposure is really nice .Here they are preparing for real world.To improve department include more practical works like field trips and sampling procedure with every students.Syllabus is understanding and exams are simple and fully inside syllabus

The students from the 7th semester usually get qualified for the campus placements though our placement training programs start right from our 1st semester. Many mnc like (focusing on my branch) tcs, usd, erasmith,etc have visited for the campus placements. But being a private self financing college , there has been only a considerate amount of companies visiting our college.

I am a person who loves the sea and ocean so I really wanted to study more about the sea, that's why I mainly choose this course. The course has various opportunities. After completing the course you can go for PhD by clearing JRF or you can opt teaching and also you can work and research in various Marine institutes all over the world. Don't expect the faculties to spoon feed you, it is PG and you need to do your things and prepare notes

First of all the name itself make the course unique. And in my intermidiat days I was into environmental science and disaster management. Then I got to know than pondicherry University offers this course. The syllabus and the curriculum is innovative and informative.

In our Phd curriculum we have a syllabus which include the research methodology and a core subject. But the syllabus was not framed for a long time and the course work completion should be done within 6 months so that the rest of our Phd work would be smooth. But the delay has affected us very badly.

I did my post graduation here itself and i believe that the syllabus could be updated and as this foeld is emerging and many major new technologies are being implemented in this field it would be helpful if it gets updated. The same can be said for equipments in the department as well and should be updated as well. The frequency of exams are quite comfortable and the results cone in a good pace as well. So to move to the next step is quite comfortable as well.

Curriculum was best but the faculties in the department is very pathetic. Some several improvements have to be done. Because the current curriculum is not upto the professional quality. Improvement needed.

The course is really good with helpful faculty and guest lectures and workshops with best equipments and studios. One can get into movie field and multimedia industry after completion of this course. This course provides basic aspects of photography, videography and audiography.
