- It provides a very experienced faculty with a vast depth of knowledge. The teaching methods are somewhat new to myself.
- Open free atmosphere to interact with seniors and staff about our doubts in academics. Can explore more articles related to our scientific research from college e-library and coursera sites etc.
Dislikes
- We get the hectic schedule throughout the entire first year. It reduces our time to explore many things according to our interests.
- Attendance is mandatory is a rule and by this rule our college treatment is more like a school life.
Course Curriculum Overview :
In terms of curriculum relevance, I will call as average because our curriculum timetable is hectic. In my 1st semester, some of the classes were taken at weekends, like Sundays, through online via Google meets. We performed old experiments in our practicals with a low new laboratory technology and mostly used old tech. It makes us behind in a real-world scientific field. There are some members in our staff with different teaching methods which we can't understand it makes it difficult for our academics. Timings ou our exams are also not pre-planned and hectic but exams are from moderate to difficulty level.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
My course fee for a 2 year period is 2,05,000. It is slightly higher than to many government institutions and central universities. Our college is following the "First Come, First Serve" policy, which reduces scholarship seats to many students. Like I attempted our college entrance examination through online and got a 15% scholarship, but at my admission time, they hadn't provided my scholarship as they mentioned in their policy. The policy works up to 30 students only. After 1st year, we are not getting any alumini scholarship because of our cancelation in scholarship which it impacts to my financial status. I am a general category student with low family annual income, scholarship matters to me most. There are no stipends for masters but as per my knowledge by interacting with Ph.D scholars the stipend they are getting is low to moderate.
Campus Life :
Most of our annual festivals are done in the college by management and by the hostlers. Some international festivals also take place by international students to create a homeland atmosphere to them. Our college library is good with many well known author books and recent articles that are published are can be seen and we can get access through online as e-library site which they provides at the beginning. Sports and extra curricular activities there are clubs separately and many fests and ethnic wear events are take place. Social-run groups like rotaract clubs which actively participates in college and to the city in beach cleanings and food providers to orphanages. Many clubs are there to join and to showcase your talent. Our student life is enjoyable alongside with learning responsibilities as personal and socially.
Admission :
Eligibility of the course : Any life sciences degree with a 3 year completed course from a well renowned college or university. We can find the application form from GITAM E-site, and the admission fee is 1000 to 1100/- cost. The application dates are open up to July. As I am a general category student, I am not aware of those reservation benefits. If EWS certificate is provided as per that joining year, it may avails some reservation. Entrance examination is offline and online mode, and we can select our timings if we opts online mode. Time duration of the examination is 2 hours and level of examination is easy to moderate level.
Faculty :
Most of our staff are very highly qualified. Most of them are post docs. With a high experience in the research field and teaching field. It provides us to learn a vast amount of knowledge in subjects. Student to staff ratio is better now but most of the staff teaches 2-3 electives in our period of our masters.
