Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course as it's a job-oriented course and also provides good packages even if job opportunities are limited. Most of the topics we study here are at the application level. The syllabus is gate and net-oriented and would be more helpful for those who are preparing

Experience with Pondicherry University while completing a master's degree

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course contains significant information on using food science and technologies while primarily focusing on practical knowledge. The faculty: student ratio is approximately 1:30, but in technology, it is 1:20. While the faculties are highly experienced in their respective fields, they all try to provide as much practical knowledge in comparison with theoretical classes. This is considered significant for associating the faculties to bond with their students, which makes it enjoyable for the students to understand the context. The academic calendars are published by the department at the initial stage of the semester which provide information on tentative dates of exam and assignment submission. These are properly followed in the University. However, it is important to follow regular classes, making the exams easier. Following regular classes increases the chance of passing the exam for the students.

PONDICHERRY UNIVERSITY

Placement Experience:

Fourth-semester students are eligible for campus placement. In the last year, 11 students from the mathematics department got placed in one of the reputed MNCs with an annual package of ten lakhs. Two students got placed in private banks. Some departments' placement cell is not that much active. I complete my degree in 2022, and currently, I am preparing for the neet exam

M.Sc. Food technology in pondicherry University

Placement Experience:

From the 3rd or 4th semester, students are eligible for placement. Placements are not that much expected but you can get a chance from outside the university. I want to do PhD in this course in future. For a job in this field, you have to be trained first so internship and lab works are important.

My experience in the Pondicherry University

Placement Experience:

University offers good placement opportunities. Many companies come to them for hire. Recently zifo and solutions came for placement. The average package is around 3 to 4 lakh per annum. A good percentage of students from engineering and management, science departments got placements. I am also planning to get a placement through this opportunity.

3.6 /5

One word to describe life here is, Carefree.

Placement Experience:

The University has departments and placements. depend on the kind of courses pursued. The Management department attracts the best placements from the big companies.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course I chose is one of a kind in India. Nowhere in India is there an Integrated MSc Economics course offered. Most other Universities offer courses in a general field like the Social Sciences or Humanities and the student must decide his/her specialization after 3 years. Here, in Pondicherry University I was immersed in my subject of Economics in year one itself. The emphasis on practical learning isn't the best because as a University, the emphasis is on making researchers and academicians. There is massive scope for research initiatives. The faculty is themselves fully immersed in their research and encourage student ideas. For example, I have co-authored a paper with my faculty and presented it at a National Seminar. The University is probably the best place to study a wide variety of subjects. The University follows a Choice Based Credit System and hence, a student is allowed to choose any course from more than 20 different departments. Therefore, it is common to see students from the School of Life Sciences sitting studying Elective subjects in Social Science subject like Economics, Sociology, History etc.
