Overall best College for Integrated M.Sc. + Ph.D. in Physical Science Course.

Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified; they have PhDs and postdocs from most major institutions. If you go to them, they will guide you. The study design is poor but provides a basic understanding of the underlying mechanisms. The passing percentage is usually subject to change at the discretion of the instructor. Semester exams are easy, and the pass rate is 73%.

A very good institute and good infrastructure but very bad placements.

Faculty: The teachers are very helpful, and each of them has a minimum degree of Ph.D. They are very knowledgeable in their respective subjects, and the teaching quality is also good. The semester exams are easy for first-year students. The passing percentage has no sense there because there is a relatively grading system.

College is your type if you are an aspiring scientist.

Faculty: Teachers are very qualified. All of them have done their Ph.D.s and postdocs from some of the most prestigious institutes in India and abroad. course curriculum is relevant for research. No, it doesn't make you industry-ready. You have to work yourself if you want to make a career in industry. Difficulty depends on the instructor. However, since relatively strict grading is followed, most students pass the courses .

A good all rounder institute, and one of the best places to pursue research in India.

Faculty: The teachers are a mixed batch. Some of them will almost treat you like family, some will try to stay as detached from students as possible. The curriculum is decided by the teacher of the particular course, and the grading is revised every year if the professor so choose. Exams and study material for the first two years is very easy if you put in the time and effort. The other three years, the major years, will have you study the courses of your choice. Most students pass with ease. The course ...

College has good infrastructure and good academics.

Faculty: The faculty member of my course is very kind. The professors are approachable and willing to help if you have any doubts. In each semester there are a total of 8 subjects and professors help us understand topics very well. Exams are conducted each month (2 practice tests) and then the final exam. In the final exam, almost all students passed easily.

It is a gem college is the field of basic sciences in India.

Faculty: Teachers are one of the most friendly on the campus. Teaching standards are high enough to rattle your brain cells. The course exposes you to every kind of research methodology around the world. The exam becomes pretty easy if we follow the course curriculum and almost everyone passes barring a few. The pass percentage is course-dependent and is generally around 30%.

The college had good placements in 2020, even during the pandemic.

Faculty: The teachers are good. Sometimes, the teachers tell seniors to help us, which is a very good thing. If we have any problem, the teachers will help us out. This course is for 5 years, and it makes students ready to go into R&D companies.

An awesome college with flexible curriculum.

Faculty: The teachers are well qualified and very knowledgeable. The teaching medium is only English. The course curriculum is very flexible, where students are intended to choose electives of their choice and interest. The only thing some students may dislike is that students are made to study all physics, chemistry, biology and mathematics.

It is a dream college for research-minded students.

Faculty: Every professor is an active scientist here. They are also doing research parallel to teaching. Along with the course material, they also tell their students about their research in their fields. The course is well-designed, and students in their 1st two years have to learn every scientific field. In these two years fields, they get interested, and they can choose their major from the next year.
