Sharath Rao's Review on School of Biotechnology and Bioinformatics - D.Y. Patil University, Navi Mumbai

Doing an internship is a part of the curriculum. A student has to do an internship after the third year of graduation. I am a former intern at Bunty Foods Pvt. Ltd., which is an associate company of Parle Biscuits.

The alumni networks are really good and the University organizes alumni lectures and guidance seminars for various batches.

There are no hostels available, although there are few private hostels near the university campus. The various room rental costs would start from INR 8,000 per month to INR 25,000 per month.

The food on the college campus was good.

University conducts an entrance exam for admission.

The minimum eligibility criteria for a candidate to take admission here is 12th with a minimum of 50% of marks.

The class timings were either from 8 am to 2 pm or from 11:30 am to 5 pm. Projects were assigned to the students, and it was great to work on. Regarding the exams, there were 2 midterm exams and 2-semester exams conducted in a year.

The teaching method was decent.

Dr. DY Patil School for Biotechnology and Bioinformatics, [DDYPSBB] Mumbai Fee Structure. The course fee is about INR 1.75 Lakh per annum.

Scholarship options are available based on a candidate's 12th class percentage. On average, 10 to 15 students get the scholarship.

There are various performing arts club in the college. Every year the college has its cultural fest called the 'Species.' The university has a great inclination toward sports.

The college life, in general, is pretty chilled out.
