B.Sc. in Biotechnology - Batch of 2028

Offered by St. Joseph's College, Irinjalakkuda

4Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

I'm proud to become a Josephine.

Placements: The percentage is the lowest for the biotechnology course. Zara Biotech is one of the companies that provide placements. The students get internships every year, and a place called Maala in the Thrissur district provides internships near the college.

Infrastructure: The facilities in the college are good. The classrooms are well-equipped, and the library is a peaceful place. The Wi-Fi facilities are poor. The network is too slow on the campus. Sometimes the Wi-Fi is not available. The lab facilities are good and fully equipped. The hostel food quality is very poor. The mess is not clean and tidy. There are various types of games and sports-related programs in our college.

Faculty: The faculty members are very helpful and supportive. They are well-qualified and have pursued Ph.D. levels as well. The semester exams are somewhat difficult. The four-year UG program’s exam pattern and syllabus are all new, so the question pattern is not relevant to us.

Other: I chose this course to gain knowledge about biotechnology and its future goals. The faculty teaching style is the best thing about this course. There is a scholarship, the e-grantz scholarship, for the students. There are more events associated with all departments.

St. Joseph: A Place to Empower Women and Explore.

Placements: Placements are not so wide in our course. Other courses have placements. The majority of students in our stream go to research after graduation, so placement is not really required. I don't know about the placement packages. Our college has a good relationship with Zara Biotech Pvt Ltd for internships. They provide internships for 2 months. The top roles offered are mainly for researchers.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is really good. All classes are equipped with smart screens. Teachers take classes with the help of these screens. There is Wi-Fi, and students have to log in every time for a connection. Labs are highly equipped and useful. The library is very vast and very helpful. There is even an AI robot to help students. The hostel is not suitable for everyone. The monthly fee is 6000. The food is very bad. Some can adjust, but some cannot. They need us to submit phones at 10 pm and give them back the next day at 8 am.

Faculty: Teachers are highly talented and experienced. They are very helpful. Every one of them has completed their Ph.D. The course curriculum is very relevant. They prepare students to be ready for experiments. They even teach the basics of biotechnology to help students understand the course. Semester exams are tough but manageable if studied. The pass percentage is above 90%.

Other: There is only an aided course for biotechnology in Kerala. I like to study viruses, medicine, etc. There is an E-Grantz scholarship for SC, ST, and OBC students whose annual income is under 1 Lakh. There are many clubs and wings for students.

Bachelor of Computer Application (BCA) - Batch of 2024

3Placements2Infrastructure3Faculty2Crowd & Campus Life3Value for Money

Review of Sree Narayana Guru College of Advanced Studies, Nattika.

Placements: We have about 40 students who opted for BCA. The course is actually 3 years, so you have to pay around 1 LPA for 3 years. You can work in many top companies if you have excellent skills after learning this course. You can work as a software developer, SaaS developer, etc. after this course.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is too slow. Classrooms and libraries are good, but the canteen is very small; it doesn't even fit 20 students. The quality of the food is also not that great. Sports and games are all good. The labs where you work on practicals are good; they have AC, and all the computers are the latest and fast.

Faculty: Most of the teachers are well qualified and great. They are not only teachers but also supportive mentors who help you a lot. The semesters are not too difficult; every student can pass if they study. There were many students in my class who were a little behind in studies, but the teachers helped them get good marks, and they did pass the exams.

Other: I chose this course because I love working with computers and I enjoy coding. The best thing is that students can get jobs easily as the IT field, like BCA, is the best choice to secure a promising job. The campus should improve its way of teaching, like building smart boards in specific classrooms so that students can easily grasp what they are being taught. Events, fests, and other extracurricular activities are great on this campus, and every student will love them once they experience it.

St. Joseph's College Irinjalakuda: A world of exploring.

Placements: My batch is 2024 to 2026, and I’m studying M.Sc. Biotechnology at St. Joseph's College Irinjalakuda and biotechnology is an excellent course. Zara Biotech provides internships for students, and students are getting opportunities as our college is providing placements and internships.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities are excellent, with good teachers and other staff, and availability of Wi-Fi. Good lab infrastructure and the library is very useful for students. The college hostel food is very poor, and the behavior of the hostel staff is very bad.

Faculty: Yes, the teachers help us a lot, and they should take more effort to take classes. They are well-qualified teachers and have good knowledge of their subjects. The curriculum is very relevant, and the semester exam is not too tough. They provide two internal exams in one semester.

Other: I’m studying M.Sc. Biotechnology, and I chose this course for a good scope in the research field and high opportunities in the future, that help our country with development. The campus is good and eco-friendly.

World of values. Good faculty, good infrastructure, and high-tech laboratories.

Placements: I am here studying M.Sc. Biotechnology. Our college does provide placements. As biotech is a research-based program, the placement opportunities are somewhat less for our program. But there are placements. Zara Biotech company provides internships for students for about 2 months. Students will get excellent opportunities.

Infrastructure: We are provided with good infrastructure. Classrooms are equipped with projectors. The labs are very good, with all the facilities and necessary equipment. Our biotechnology lab is very neat and clean. Wi-Fi is also provided, and there is a good library. We now have AI to assist with doubts in the library and for the college map. Overall, very good infrastructure, and the hostel is also good. However, the food in the college hostel should be improved.

Faculty: For M.Sc. Biotechnology, we have 3 faculty members and the degree students have another set of faculty members. Our teachers are very helpful. They provide us with the basic ideas, and there is no spoon-feeding. They let us go to the library to create our own notes. The curriculum is relevant, and the semester exams are not too tough but need good revision. The college's pass percentage is overall good.

Other: I am studying M.Sc. Biotechnology. I chose this course as it has a good research life. The best thing about the course is that we can do experiments in the laboratory. There are cultural events and seminars also provided. Many activities are organized, and the college provides a free gym to students. It is also the best college for sports students, as the college is a big support for them.

A college which supports rural education.

Placements: The college does not have a placement cell. The college doesn't provide any kind of placement opportunity. Students are required to find the jobs themselves. Most of the students from our batch went for higher studies. The minimum salary is 10,000. The average salary is 15,000 per month. Some of the companies which recruited our students include IT Solutions Calicut, BIT industries Ltd., etc. The top roles offered include software development, computer engineering, etc.

Infrastructure: The college does not provide hostel facilities for boys or girls. The college provides an average classroom setup. It also provides a decent computer lab facility. The library is vast and it contains many books related to our syllabus and industry. No medical facilities are offered by the college. The mess and canteen are limited, with few facilities. It can hardly include 50 students at a time. Various games, such as cricket, football, badminton, volleyball, etc., are encouraged here.

Faculty: The teachers are good and their way of teaching is good. They are clearly following the rules of college in every aspect. The teaching is done in a convenient way and they are able to convey the messages clearly to the students. However, they are not taking classes fully in English. The curriculum is not very hard and it is job-oriented. Semester exams are much harder, and almost all students are getting pass marks.

Other: I chose this course because I was keenly interested in computer programming. I hardly suggest college management provide better lab facilities and placement opportunities. Various events, such as cultural and academic ones, are held here each year.
