Choosing an MSc Biotech college or university is a tough task because everyone wants the best college or best university for their career. Moreover, the institute will have a long term impact on your career as well as personal life.
So here I am giving you some pointers to consider for shortlisting. Following these criteria, you can narrow down your list.
1) Campus location and its environment
Firstly you must have a clear idea of whether you want to study in your hometown or you want to move out to a different city. Ask yourself if you want to study in a metro city or a peaceful town full of lush greenery.
2) Accreditation and affiliation of the institute
University must be UGC recognized and colleges must be affiliated from ‘A’ or ‘B’ grade government university (prefer ‘A’ grade).
3) How big is the institute
Large size institutes will have a variety of campus facilities including libraries, cafeterias, health clinics, activity clubs, etc. They also tend to have a big budget for investment in R&D.
On the other hand, small institutes can have focused research themes. Small campus and class sizes may help you in getting a great deal of attention.
4) What is the cost of education
Take note of cost of education and other associated expenses like hostel charges
5) The research theme of the institute and its labs
I expect, you must have identified a specific research interest, so please make sure that the institute is working on that particular theme.
6) Academic quality and dissertation project
Check department pages to get a clear idea of academic quality, dissertation topics completed in the past, and ongoing projects.
7) Quality of faculty, fundings, and achievements
Faculty play a crucial role in directing your future. Look for the faculty page on the institute’s website. Look for faculty profiles, what experiences and achievements they have in their pocket.
8) Career counseling cell and placement cell
Gather information on past placements and companies coming for placements. Career counseling and placement cell can aid you in fetching jobs and internships.
With these points, you can now narrow down your list. I hope the above-mentioned pointers will help you with finalizing the institute which can fulfill your dream of becoming a successful biotechnologist.
Any day VIT Vellore. That goes without any dilemma . I did my Btech in Biotechnology from there and where I stand today has been possible only because I am a proud VITian.
