National Centre for Cell Science Pune, Ph.D Modern Biology

Reviewed on Jun 11, 2020

Course Curriculum Overview

You need hard work to get through this with flying colours! It is an eminent institution and for three years, your nose will be to the grindstone! Three years packed with research, viva and innumerable papers to study and write.

Placement Experience

Several Opportunities! It is the leading institution of its kind in the country and top labs across the country will come over to recruit you!Besides that, we also get offers for post-doctoral fellowships from leading institutions of the world.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Considering the fact that it is a private institute, the tuition fee is quite affordable- only Rs 55,000 for 3 years, payable annually. And all this despite the fact that we avail of top-notch facilities and unlimited resources!

Campus Life

Since the only degree offered is Ph.D in Modern Biology and most students here are thorough academicians, we don't get much scope to take part in extracurricular activities. Besides that, the labs are fantastic, with all equipment you may possibly need.

Alumni/Alumna

The alumni network is great in college! So many of our seniors are doing research at top universities in US and Europe. Our senior Navjot Kaur works at Yale Labs and Sunil Martin is doing research at U.Penn!

Admission

Biology has fascinated me right from when I was in middle school- especially the cell and its structure! Imagine my joy at being selected at this premiere institute for cell studies! I applied on the basis of my post-grad score and got selected after an interview.

Faculty

The faculty at National Centre for Cell Science are all renowned scientists in their own right, with decades of research and teaching between them! They help you clear fact and guide you through advanced research.

Proud to be a part of claras college

Likes

The faculty members are highly qualified, approachable, and always willing to help with academic or research projects.
The campus infrastructure is excellent, featuring modern labs, a well-stocked library, and great sports facilities.
Placement opportunities are robust, with many top-tier companies visiting the campus for recruitment every year.

Dislikes

The hostel mess food lacks variety and quality, which is a frequent concern among resident students.
The placement department needs improvement as more core internship and job opportunities could be provided for undergraduate finance and BMS students
There is a lack of student-accessible Wi-Fi facilities across the campus premises, which makes online research difficult during college hours.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose the BMS (Bachelor of Management Studies) course primarily due to its highly comprehensive coverage of core business aspects specially human resources. The curriculum is well-structured to offer a deep understanding of corporate administration and strategic management, which strongly influenced my decision to enroll. Regarding the examination structure, semester exams are conducted systematically every six months, with internal assessments, assignments, and class presentations spread across the term. The timing is generally manageable, and the difficulty level ranges from moderate to high, effectively testing a student's analytical thinking and problem-solving capabilities rather than just memory recall.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I have chooses this curriculum as I am intrested to do law. Many of students and other peoples praises the college as "Best College of Law" in Marathwada region. To be honest. Really it is best college. Which gives us best curriculum during our academic year. The curriculum of college teaches me how to become a good lawyer. The arguing skills etc. There should be no suggestions from my side just to imrove the course curriculum as it is overall good. The timings and scheduled are fixed by college and university. Generally the exam is in two shifts 10:00 to 1.00 and 2.00 to 5.00pm.

Some departments here were really great like ETC and Mechanical with a unique culture going on
AIML and AIDS being new branches here are still doing their job very well for the students

Dislikes

The Students section not really tends to help ,as i saw many financially weak students facing the problem of 1 time payment fees and their request for part payments option is always rejected
Infrastructure is decent but in summer season the water coolers are just useless there ,no cooler will give you cold water

Course Curriculum Overview:

Some courses were to the point like IOT was well designed and DSA too with java programming side by side ,still as i said AIML is new branch and needs much enhancements ,the areas where they can improve was always practicals and labs those were always taken casual as i remember
