Remarks
I had joined this institute against the wishes of my parents, and I am glad I did. The university taught me great lessons in professional ethics and competitiveness that I would not have learned elsewhere. And though the college life is very hectic and punishing sometimes, I am really grateful for the experience.
Course Curriculum Overview
The course is divided into four semesters, with a compulsory summer internship program. There are compulsory papers in microeconomics, macroeconomics, growth and development economics, mathematical economics, statistics, econometrics, and a range of electives to choose from. At the end of each semester, evaluation is made on the basis of written test, and assignments and practical projects submitted throughout the semester.
Placement Experience
The university has a CDC (Career Development Cell), which grooms the students for internships and full time jobs, and also facilitates campus placements and interviews. The placements are good, and there is a lot of preparation for them.
Fee Structure And Facilities
The tuition fee was around three lacs per annum, which is on the higher side, especially compared to other colleges and universities. But then again, this is not the typical academic course but a professional course, so this is to be expected.
Campus Life
The infrastructure is impressive and well functioning. There are a lot of clubs and societies to choose from, and there are regular seminars and workshops. There is a four-week student exchange program. The campus life is busy and satisfying, and there are next to no prejudices.
Admission
The admission process is similar to that of foreign universities. I filled up the online application form, along with the required documents, and a statement of purpose. This was followed by a personal interview, and I was then admitted for the course.
Faculty
The faculty is qualified, well-trained and dedicated. Their main focus is on imparting practical skills along with the academic knowledge of the discipline. We were taught using a variety of teaching strategies, and there were regular guest lectures and seminars.
