NMIMS Mumbai Ph. D. - Biological Sciences - Fees, Eligibility, Seats and Admission 2024

Overall: One of the best decisions I ever made was to enrol in the PhD programme at NMIMS Mumbai. I am currently in my second year, and the faculty and seniors have helped me every step of the way. To ensure that students have fun while on campus, the college offers a wide variety of societies and clubs. The placement cell invites both domestic and foreign businesses to participate in the placement drive in terms of career opportunities.

Placement: After our first year was over, the placement cell assisted us in finding a summer internship. For the purpose of getting students ready for NMIMS Mumbai placements, workshops, seminars, guest lectures, mock interviews, etc. are organised. The placement percentage of the institute is decent and some of the top research companies hire the PhD students.

Infrastructure: The NMIMS Mumbai campus is very nice and equipped with all the contemporary conveniences to give students a comfortable setting. We can easily obtain all the management books or academic papers at the institute thanks to its well-stocked library and roomy reading room. The campus also has other amenities like a gym, an auditorium, and computer labs.

Faculty: The faculty at the institute is a mix of seasoned professionals and new hires. Every concept is explained and understood by the students by our professors. Along with academic expertise, faculty members also share their professional experiences with students to better position them for the future.

Hostel: The college offers both male and female students well-equipped dorms. The mess in the dorms serves the students breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The mess's menu is updated on a regular basis. Although a little cramped, the hostel rooms are well ventilated.

Overall: I am currently pursuing PhD Chemistry (full-time) from NMIMS Mumbai. Since the college is located in Mumbai, the cost of living is high (since I am an outstation student). Although the college has accommodation facilities, they are not up to the mark. In terms of academics, the research guides are helpful and keep a check on your progress.

Placement: Since I am a PhD student, placements do not play a major role for me. From what I have seen and heard, the placement cell invites numerous eminent companies to participate in the NMIMS Mumbai placement drive. A large number of college students are hired by companies such as Amazon, Dell, Infosys, Deloitte, TCS etc.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities are excellent in the college. The college has a canteen that serves delicious food at reasonable prices. NMIMS Mumbai central library has separate sections for PhD scholars. Furthermore, the college building is new and the interior is designed as per the latest trend.

Faculty: All professors, whether new comers or experienced, are well educated and at least hold a PhD degree. The research guides allotted to PhD students are cooperative and provide enough time to students. From time to time, they review our process and provide the much needed suggestions for our research.

Hostel: The college has multiple hostels for accommodation of students. The hostel fees are high and cannot be affordable for every student. This is the reason why many students stay in PG or rent a flat in college proximity. NMIMS Mumbai mess serves delicious and hygienic food to students.
