How is Fergusson College Pune for BSc in physics?

RS
Riya Sodhi Posted On : September 28th, 2021
Studied at Fergusson College,Pune (2018)

If physics is your passion, and you genuinely want to learn, this is not the place for you. One of my friends studied here and these are some things he mentioned.

  • The faculty is good but they have limited course material. You would not feel like you have learned much. 
  • Most students take up physics in their final years because they know they can easily memorize the course material and pass. This is just so that they can improve their grades. 
  • Mugging up theories is definitely not how someone can learn science. 
  • They don’t have a real interest in the subject anyway and they would be your peers.
  • The system at Fergusson is not great and you wouldn’t want to attend classes as it would not matter and you will pass your exams regardless.

If you are only looking for a college life minus the studies and want to have some fun with fests and events, by all means, join Fergusson because marks and knowledge are secondary here.

Which college is better for a BA in psychology Symbiosis or Fergusson College?

NN
Nikhil Nikam Posted On : September 28th, 2021
Studied at Symbiosis College of Arts and Commerce (2018)

In my opinion, Symbiosis is better. As a lot of my friends studied at Symbiosis, I might be able to provide you with some information about the college.

  • The course material is extensive and the staff is quite friendly. On the other hand, Fergusson is just mismanaged. 
  • The course material at Symbiosis is such that it also covers small parts of the Master’s course material. 
  • The faculty encourages you to refer to study materials outside of the course outline which is very healthy. 
  • Also, the Honours programs have a good reputation and the symbiosis brand itself is well-recognized. 
  • They will add value to your resume and also build a good foundation if you wish to do a Master’s Degree.

As Symbiosis is a private institute, the fees will considerably be higher than Fergusson. But it is good to invest in a college which will give you a proper and industry-oriented education. So Symbiosis won't be a bad choice.

Which is better for a BA in humanities: MSU Baroda or Fergusson Pune?

SJ
Sidhharth Jain Posted On : December 31st, 2022
B.Sc.(H) Physics in Physics & Astrophysics, University of Delhi (Graduated 2019)

MSU Baroda is better compared to Ferguson College Pune. In terms of science courses, MSU is a well-known institution. And it is good in arts as well but Ferguson college is not as good as MSU. As a result, you should go with the MSU Baroda. MSU's main campus includes the Arts, Science, and Commerce faculties, the architecture department, the education and phycology faculty, the family and community science faculty, the fine arts faculty, and one or two other faculties.

Another point as far as the experiences of students say, is that MSU is strong in science, which improves the environment for art students. Ferguson College Pune also does not offer a BA in humanities

Which is better: NMIMS Mumbai or Fergusson Pune?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : June 6th, 2023

NMIMS Mumbai is famous for its best Management courses and its world-class education system. The NMIMS method has always been to innovate and develop educational programs that meet the needs of the industry and society. The goal of NMIMS has always been to improve the employability of graduates.

Fergusson College, Pune was set up for functioning in the year 1895 by the Deccan Education Society. It is affiliated to Savitribai Phule Pune University. This nation-building institution provides a plethora of degree courses at both, UG and PG levels. Apart from the degree courses, the college also offers special courses, vocational courses, certificate courses, and Ph.D. programs for students. 

The academic programs offered by the college at UG level are B.A. in 15 subjects and B.Sc. in 13 subjects all under Arts and Science faculty.

Now the comparable courses for NMIMS and Fergusson are BSc Economics from NMIMS and BA Economics from Fergusson.

If you're looking for placements after graduation, NMIMS is the better of the two. But if placements are not a criterion, choose Ferguson as it has a better crowd, campus life, and environment.

As Fergusson College is older, it has more respect in society and a stronger alumni network.

You can join NMIMS if you are looking for quality education and placements but join Ferguson if you want a relatively laid-back college life.
