Remarks

CFTRI is a College having a 70+ year long history and that was enough of a reason for me to choose it for my Master's degree. The college is affiliated with Mysore University & it is a Private institute. CFTRI is also given approval by AICTE group. Students seeking admission to the M.Sc program in this college will have to apply for the CFTRI entrance exam.

Course Curriculum Overview

The specialisation I chose for my M.Sc was Food Technology as it has built a good demand over the years. The M.Sc programme is of 2 years which has a total of 4 semesters in it. We also had practical facilities so that the content can be offered to us in the easiest & effective ways. The college also used to organise various kinds of academic competitions.

Class Size: 30Course Fees: INR 48000 per year

Internships Opportunities

No, I haven't participated in the internship round because I wasn't sure if it would really help me in the long run. However the decision may not seem good to some but I finalised after a few consultations and was ok with it.

Placement Experience

Our college is a trustworthy Private college of our state and that's the reason why companies such as ITC, Infosys and Unilever Ltd visit the college for placement offers to the deserving of. Packages are given under Food care, Operations, IT domains and a good number of students got placed. The average package for the course varies every year

Fees and Financial Aid

We had to pay two annual shifts of INR 24,000 for the M.Sc programme at CFTRI. As the total programme fee is just INR 48K thus no such pressure of fee is put on the students. For candidates who match the eligibility, Merit based scholarships are also available.

Campus Life

Our college campus has a good package of Learning as academic, Co-curricular and sports facilities are available in the college. For a good touch of practical knowledge, we were given laboratory sessions also and a variety of seminars and workshops are organised by the institute. The college also has a good Hall, library and modern tech equipment for the students.

Hostel Facilities

I lived with my Uncle-Aunt who had a flat near our college and as we had family relations so I decided to live with them. Some students lived in Hostels/PGs for their Journey with CFTRI . There is something really good about this life because it is arguably the best time one experiences in their student life.

Hostel Fee: INR 10000 per year

Admission

CFTRI College conducts a Special entrance exam for admission and students interested to opt for the M.Sc - FT course in this college must appear in this exam. Students must have completed their UG in relevant field to become eligible for the M.Sc admissions.

ISME: THIS IS ME !!

Course Curriculum Overview:

For jobs, it prepares you very well. You work through real case studies, Harvard business simulations, and a 4-to-6-month corporate internship, so you aren't completely clueless on day one at an office. If your goal is a PhD or pure research, though, it leans a bit too practical and corporate rather than deeply academic.

They have highly qualified and experienced teachers.
For a sports enthusiast like me, having a ground is great in college is great.
There are various types of events conducted very often which provides us exposure academically, culturally, socially and it also helps our social networking and connections.

Dislikes

I think infrastructure can be improved and maintained well, than it is now.
Placement services should be improved too.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose BCom because I was a commerce student in my PUC, and I wanted to master in the same field. This course has shaped my knowledge on accounts and finance which has been some sort of a passion for me. Accounts, tally, finance, are the studies that are to be applied by anyone who's working with numbers, finances or in banks, account sectors etc which I'm doing currently, and it has really helped me a lot. The only improvement in this course that I seek is practical applications and workshops that would definitely help students enhance their skills.

ABBS is cut over rest!!

ABBS means Professionalism and therefore students have to follow the strict uniform code as assigned by our college.
No entry without icard and it has to be around our collar whole we are in college.
Cameras are everywhere and therefore no blind spot and this ensures complete security.

Dislikes

Uniform colour is very poor as it looks like colour of postman uniform.

Placement Experience:

Oracle, Genpact, Amazon and you can name any name which you know in technology and they were at ABBS. Junior software developer roles were the primary roles offered to BCA students and placements worth 4-6 lakhs were offered to us.

Insights of the Gopalan college of engineering and Management by a First Year Student

Likes

Canteen is fine has nice and tasty food and quite a lot of options
Library is also good has every book related to my course and few others as well
Lab facilities are also very nice and the college has a nice crowd

Dislikes

It's nothing like I expected, they don't let students use the ground or turfs. Facilities are pretty bad.
They charge money for everything and has zero facilities for college students. Everything is for there school students.
College is very small and the faculties are rude to students. (Mostly the case)

Placement Experience:

Student are eligible for placements from there 7th semester but I wouldn't recommend relying on college for placements. Not many companies come to this college so placements are really bad. If u have skills it would be better to apply to companies on your own. I don't have details on how many students gets placed but as much as I know it's about 30-50 % And average package is also very low. I plan of gaining skills and certification on my own and job hunting myself in 4th year through my connections and internships. Or maybe go abroad for masters As I'm a first year student I don't know much about which companies come and how much they offer.

The teaching faculty is the best here all the doctors who come to teach us are well trained and knowledgeable
The lab facilities are also very good here, we are having good access to the lab also
We are also getting easy access to the Hospital whenever we want to which is giving us good clinical knowledge

Course Curriculum Overview:

Ayurveda is holistic science in total to study about. Ayurveda helps us a lot when it comes to the application and clinical practice point of view. Ayurveda aims at mainly "Swasthasya swasthir rakshanam, athurasya vikar prashamanam" our entire curriculum is based on the aim of ayurveda which states protecting the health of a healthy person and also reversing the pathology of the diseased individual. Ayurveda mainly aims at the Doshas(vatta, pitta and Kapha) to treat the pathology and also to maintain the health of the healthy person. Ayurveda language is sanskrit so 1st year Sanskrit should be learnt properly. The term vise examination and periodic assessment are helping us to revise and learn the concept better.
