Course Curriculum Overview
Pharmaceutical Engineering and Technology combines the best of both worlds: engineering and medical. It is one of the prime research-based streams, which is of utmost importance in today's world and will remain in future. Also, this is the best branch and college I could get at my JEE Advanced rank. The faculty-to-student ratio is generally 2:96. Professors are PhDs from reputed institutes in India and the world and have a lot of experience in teaching their courses. The exams were generally doable and standard, except for the subject Biochemistry which causes a lot of difficulty to students from PCM backgrounds.
