The faculty-to-student ratio is 1:90, with generally poor faculty-student relations, except for the approachable Head of the Life Sciences Department. Exams are moderately difficult, but 6-7 students per class usually fail annually. The course curriculum is often seen as irrelevant. Engineering and management students can pursue placements from the third year, with top companies recruiting actively. Biology students have limited on-campus placements but can join off-campus opportunities with a No Objection Certificate.
Internships are available through platforms like Internshala, with collaborations with NGOs and companies such as AXIS Bank and IIFs Coaching Institutes. Internships include programs by Cognizant and IIT Roorkee. The university's centrally funded status prevents major fee hikes, and it offers scholarships for various categories, including SC/ST castes, economically weaker sections, and wards of defense personnel. Tuition fees for B.Sc. (Hons.) in Life Science or Chemical Science are between INR 12,120 and INR 20,120 per semester, while mess fees are INR 15,100, and hostel rent ranges from INR 12,000 to INR 20,000, with reserved category students exempt from hostel rent.
The campus is praised for its lush green environment and positive atmosphere.
