- Campus is overall very good the way it is designed is completely a masterpiece, there is no doubt in it. it gives a space and environment to not only focus on your academics but also make a good relationship with students as well as faculty, I think that is what I like most about my campus. Other than that campus life is very vibrant and diversity, there is no restriction, to go anywhere or to do anything, hence it is very liberal campus.
- If I could talk about faculty, they are good in their fields of teaching, they are very humble, and we never call our faculty "Sir" or "professor". We call them by their name and they no problem with it although they are very supportive and very approachable.
Dislikes
- There is nothing as such that I don't like, but only one thing that I don't like is groupism, student make groups only with those who are from same state or same place, they don't like another student who are not from their place. But this also a very little. not much happened, I feel this sometimes while roaming in campus. which stop another student to communicate, make friends.
Remarks :
one day I was searching of private universities, which provides scholarship, and I came to know about this university, and then I searched more about it on internet, and the most interesting thing that catches my attention was the course curriculum, it was design in such a way that you can opt any field no matter what is your stream in 12th standard. additionally, especially in the field of social science and economics for me. Admission procedure was mainly divided into two phases. first was written test which include descriptive writing, analytical writing, essay writing and some question regarding your major that you are opting for. And second phase was interview, where they mainly ask why you choose this university, how you will contribute yourself in this university, why you choose your major, what is your future plans and what you will do after graduation.
Course Curriculum Overview :
course curriculum is design in such a way that you can do your graduation in major as well as in minor and occupational track (OT), I am doing my Major in Social Science, and I am doing minor in Economics which helps me to understand the problems of society that it faces how it works, I really think that both courses are interconnected and best combination because social science teaches how the society works and how it forms class and hegemony, on other hand economics talks about the flow of money in society. how it reflects to society. trust me in my university I can say this proudly and confidently that our faculty are one of the best faculties in India, their qualification is tremendous very high, their teaching method is very different, they are very approachable, and they are available any time, to help us.
Internships Opportunities :
Yes, we can do intern in our university itself, there are lot of different department that you can opt for intern for e.g., writing content, blog writing, making presentation, posters, video editing, photography, and in sports you can do a lot of things like you can facilitate with equipment's to students, you can assist anyone to help others, you can also give training in gym, and what not. some of the companies like Wipro,
Placement Experience :
The university mainly focuses on NGOs and in development sector rather than in corporate sectors. My plan is to work in Ngo who works on the field of social sector which will help me to understand how the society works, and my second plan is to prepare myself for civil service (UPSC).
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
The total fees are three lakhs for 1st year, and it keep increasing to three lakhs fifty-seven thousand till the completion of the graduation i.e., up to 4 years. But I have 75% scholarship in tuition and accommodation, which makes a round figure of 75000 for first year 79000 for second year 84250 for third year 89375 for fourth year Additionally, 20000 accommodations charge every year One of my friends have Zero scholarship so she pays full fees which is: 300000 for first year 318000 for second year 337000 for third year 357500 for fourth year additionally, accommodations charges 80000/year
Campus Life :
I have just started my graduation this year, by spending almost 4 years it I get some short of idea that campus life of APU is very vibrant and diversity. Students come here from all over India which makes this campus more diversity. Infrastructure of campus is designed in such a way that it creates a less footprint, and sustainable towards environment and nature, there is not any color on the wall of the academic blocks and windows are more than walls. it also has hostel building which contains 40 Storey and library which contains more that 1 lakh books. One thing I like about my campus is there are lot of activity happening all the time, which have lot of clubs, committee for ex., poetry club, choir club, theatre club, badminton club, football club, basketball club, Sustainable committee etc.
Hostel Facilities :
Yes, we do have a Hostel, which is 40 Storey building, each floor has common bathroom on both sides of the building and pantry, and common room. I don't know how much rooms are there in each floor exactly, but each room will be sharing with two students, and whole building has a capacity of 3000 student. Our Hostel mess is little bit fancy and complicated because first of all you have to pay every time before every meal, and it has its own food application just like Zomato or swiggy where you have to order it from there and get the QR code and after scanning the QR code you will get Slip whatever you have ordered. Food quality is decent and little bit expensive, there are total two dining table, both are far away from each other. there is nothing to apply for hostel rooms because it is mandatory for everyone who are planning to get admission.

BSc Physics at Jain University
Course Curriculum Overview :
Faculties are well qualified and some of them are doing active research. However the college does not have a very active research environment but they do not hinder a student from taking up projects outside. They provide all support like recommendations, attendance permissions etc.
MSc Physics at Christ
Course Curriculum Overview :
All the faculties are well qualified and quite renowned in their research fields. However some of them have this quality of holding personal grudge and targeting. Some assume you know a lot and don't teach properly and expect more from the student. There is a lot of pressure even with internals, assignments and other things.
