What Students Say

Likes

We will recieve many good exposure from this college
Overall the campus environment is also soo good.

Dislikes

Heavy workload is the one. Like balancing exams,assignemnts projects etc..

Course Curriculum Overview

2.5

I need to work in organization , so i choose this Msc corporate psychology course. The curriculum is quite good. We can learn more about organization how it works ,culture etc.. Teaching method can be improved by teaching the students more about practically than theoritically.

Class Size: 24Course Fees: INR 74000 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

The college fee per sem is 37k , so per year it is 74000. And in addition you need to pay exam fee ,like for me for the first exam I need to pay 2600. And if your UG was from outside Karnataka You need to pay for eligibility certificate which is 1000. And there is scholarships but idk in much detail about that

Campus Life

Facilities like projector all are available. And for PG students there is only a programme named PG fest. Nothing else is there. And we have access to library till 7 PM. And the library have many kind of reference books. There is also e-access available. I have no idea about the sports. There is and there are many item also.

Admission

In india the course i choose now, was not available everywhere. There only 3 college where this course was available. I choose this college because when i ask the alumini all of them was having good points abt this college and also abt the course.

Faculty

2.5

In my dept, the faculties have work experience in the organization. So in terms of that they are really good. When it comes to teaching its ok. Faculties are quite approachable. And there will be 2 internal exam before the end sem exam. And both the internal exams are mandatory.

The area of the campus is small leads to chaos. Which will be averted after shifting to new campus
Due to the small campus sitting places are very small
Hostel facilities and rooms are very poor.

Placement Experience:

2nd year students are eligible for the campus placement. Sai, Hetero, mendine, dr. Reddys etc companies visities for the campus placement. Offers ranges from 5-12 lpa. 60% students gets placed, 10% goes for higher studies and others get job off campus in my department. Other departments has 100% placement. My plans are pHd from Niper as it provides vast knowledge and instrumental exposure.

The Techno Experience

Likes

Practical Exposure with hands on training is always good for personal growth
The laboratories were well equipped with state of the art instruments
Entrepreneurship was encouraged and it really helped us with designing future start ups.

Dislikes

Lack of scholarships for the needy is one thing that needed to be worked on.
There was a distinct lack of encouragement to pursue extracurricular activity.
Sometimes it felt like it would have helped if we had a mental health counsellor onboard with the department.

Placement Experience:

Techno India University has a strong campus placement. Several students got jobs during the last semester, and I am one of them. Some others choose to wait for better opportunities. Some joined good startups. The package was nominal as we were all freshers. After getting my degree, I planned to pursue corporate experience and then join a lab for my PhD.

My thoughts on our beloved Sidho Kanho Birsha University.

Likes

The most I liked about my university is the infrastructure and availability of facilities for our studies.
Second thing I like are our professors . They help us in every aspect of our educational or personal life .
Third thing I like the most is my batchmates who gives me encouragement for pursuing my studies.

Dislikes

The university is a bit far from the Purulia city . So the connectivity is a problem.
I think if we get some extra hours of the lab facilities, that will be great.
Water purifier are available in some of the floors I think the number should be increased.

Placement Experience:

The campus placement of our university is quite good and it is getting better day by day. Especially our chemistry department is doing great in this field. Last year our dept almost hit 100% placements and the highest package was of 5 lpa. I am planning to peruse my PhD after MSc.
