Remarks :

CIFE is the 1st ranked fisheries college in the country. It have many accreditation including NAAC and many other international collaborations for studies. The teachers here are the top fisheries scientists of the country which makes the education here the top standard quality education. Inorder to get admission here you have to appear for AIEEE PG conducted by ICAR after completing a 4 year bachelors in BFSc(Bachelor of fisheries science). In that entrance exam you have to qualify and secure a rank below 100 to get a seat in CIFE. The rank range varies depending on the reservations you have. We have to spend atleast an year of proper preparation to secure a seat in CIFE as the entrance exam is for all the fisheries graduates in the country there will be thousands of students appearing for this exam every year. The factors that made me chose CIFE is the quality of education, exposure to various activities, interaction with top scientist in Fisheries sector, the college campus ambience.

Course Curriculum Overview :

I choose this course because fisheries sector is the sunrise sector of India. It provides high opportunities in the future and also the learning process is very enthusiastic. The faculties in CIFE are the top scientist in the country who qualified the ARS exams. The teaching methods differ with every teacher as they have individual approach. The teaching is mainly focused on field works and labs so as to get more exposure to the learning. The exams are conducted in semester wise. It comprises a quiz, midterm, practical exams and finally the semester exams. The exams will be there for first two semesters only. The last two semesters will be for research works and publication of the thesis, seminars etc... there are hence a total of four semester in total. The grade point will be published after exams and the total grade points in CGPA will be published at the end of the course. The one with top CGPA will be the topper in the institute for that academic year and awarded with gold medal.

Internships Opportunities :

National and international internships are available. We can do internship in top central government institutions like CIFRI ( Central Inland fisheries research institute), CMFRI ( Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute), DCFR ( Directorate of Cold water Fisheries) etc... We can also do many trainings internationally at Thailand, Myanmar etc... Mostly these internships are done after the second semester so currently I haven't done any as I am a second semester student.

Placement Experience :

Campus placements are present which we can apply while we are studying. Many of the national and international companies related to fisheries comes to our institution as many of the owners of these companies are our alumni. My plan is to do further studies so I didn't explored the much opportunities of the jobs side.

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

CIFE is a prime central institute for fisheries, Here all the students will get a monthly stipend provided by the institute. The students with JRF scholarship will get stipend from India Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR). For regular scholarship it is around 7000 INR and for JRF it is 12000 INR. For yearly fees it is 22000 and 21000 for 2 years respectively. The backward classes students will get the tuition fees back. Caution fees, admission fees, lab fees, tution fees everything is covered under this yearly fees. The fees is very less as compared to other fisheries institutions as CIFE is a central institute. They also provide monthly stipend which can easily cover our studying expenses here. Contingency is there which means the fees we pay for anything related to studies like conference registration fees, books, pens, pendrive and other stationary brought for studying and research equipments needed while research during 2nd year etc, will be paid back at the end of each year.

Campus Life :

The campus is very green and eco-friendly. The infrastructure is so good and proper. The library here at CIFE is so large which occupies an entire building. The online library facilities are provided here. The library have a huge collection of books. Every classrooms are air conditioned, classrooms are provided with smart classrooms. The teaching mode is mainly by there smart boards. Many cultural programs are also conducted in CIFE. Latest programs conducted are Fish swad were individual stalls are provided for every state of India and the students will prepare their authentic food and sell in the stalls. That program is coordinated by the faculties. Many sports also takes place in the campus like cricket leagues, badminton and tennis matches which includes both faculty and students. There are social groups run by students who coordinate many sports and arts programs. Faculties also have social groups. The both groups together coordinate the sports and arts meets in the institute.

Hostel Facilities :

The hostel facilities will be provided for both girls and boys separately by the institute. It will be inside the institute campus itself. There is two campus for CIFE one old campus and one new campus so there are two hostels for masters students and one hostel for the PhD students. The food in each Hostels is prepared by the cooks appointed by the institute. The mess is run by the students itself, there will be two mess managers who will be from the students side. They will formulate the menu and purchase necessary items for the mess. The food is very tasty here. There will be feasts at the hostels where all students from other hostels can also go and participate. The hostel fees is only for the mess only there is no rent for the hostel as it is provided by the institute. The mess fees should be paid at every month for the respective messes taken by each departments. There is many facilities available in the hostel like washing machine and refrigerators.

An industry focused learning experience

Placement Experience :

I haven't reached my placement stage yet but from what I have seen the college doesn't wait until the final year to start preparing students. We have coding sessions, skills building workshops and career guidance from the beginning. Seniors also share their experiences which gives us a better idea of what to expect. I feel the college is helping us build the right foundation for internships and placements. At the same time, I think getting a good job also depends on how much effort we put into improving our own skills. So far I feel I am on the right track
