It is a nice place to build our career.
Placements: Placements are quite good. My seniors are getting placed in Wabag, Chennai. Some other good companies also hire students. Packages offered are quite good for those who have nice company. For internships, faculty members will give permission to some of the popular institutes and industries.
Infrastructure: Facilities are good. The network connection is quite poor, to be honest. We have library facilities. Our college conducts tournaments every year for all sports. Inter-college matches are available for all sports. The canteen food is below average.
Faculty: Some faculty members are really good, and some of them are not. Semester exams are quite moderate. The course curriculum makes us know about what we have to study in this course within 4 years and gives us a clear idea to go and build our future in the respective fields.

Puducherry Technological University.
Placements: The average package is about 6 LPA, but the highest can be up to 18-20 LPA, and you also get an internship in big companies like Qualcomm and more. The rest is up to you, the harder you work, the more you will get. The T&P cell helps you get a job.
Infrastructure: Hostel life is very good. The food is a little bit average because most of the dishes are south indian, but the taste is very decent and much better than the other college hostel and mess. You can request the menu change as the menu is decided by the students only.
Faculty: Faculty, curriculum, and exams are very good. Some of the faculty are non-cooperative, but the rest are all very good, very helpful, and supportive. They help you in all ways. Exam questions are very easy, but you still have to study very well, and the exams are conducted very strictly.

Satisfactory college with decent faculty members and placements.
Placements: Placements are decent. Most of the students get placed in various companies. The minimum package is 3 LPA, and the median is about 6.5 LPA. The faculty members, especially the training and placement cell help a lot in the placement. Around 45 out of 60 got placed.
Infrastructure: Campus has a central Wi-Fi that works all over the campus. The campus is also very big. Library has more than 8,000 books on all streams of engineering. Classrooms are decent.
Faculty: Curriculum is very good. The teaching quality is also very good, except for some teachers who make college life feel like school life, rest are all good. The exams are comparatively medium level. Sometimes the board asks very tough questions but generally easy. Faculty members are also very good and supportive, except for some.

Campus life and hostel life are good.
Placements: Decent companies come here to the Training and Placement Centre. Moreover, you get an above-average salary. But don't expect extraordinary companies to hire you from here. As it is a Tier 2 college, you should not expect any MNCs to visit. All the best.
Infrastructure: In the hostel, the in and out timings are okay, but the food is typical South Indian and below average. Electricity is there most of the time, but it goes off during heavy rain. Still, there is a generator for power backup. Wi-Fi facility is good, but mobile internet is not there.
Faculty: Most of professors are good, friendly, and well-educated. Most of them are Ph.D. scholars. However, they speak in Tamil most of the time during lectures, as the majority of the class consists of local students. Still, you can ask your doubts, and they will help you. The curriculum and semester exams are on time and well-organized.

The college is good for day scholars but not for hostellers.
Placements: There is 87% placement in the CSE branch, and sometimes it is said that there is 100% placement in CSE. The highest package is 10 LPA to 15 LPA. The average package is 6 LPA and the lowest package is 3 LPA. Wipro, IBM, TCS, Infosys, and Wipro have 89% placement in the CSE branch, and 70% of students from the civil department are placed in Wipro, I don't know the exact value.
Infrastructure: There is no Wi-Fi in the classrooms, but Wi-Fi in the hostel rooms is free. The hostel food is not good yet, and no canteen for hostellers. There are no medical facilities after 5 PM. Sports and games are there, but at night, there are no students on the ground after 7:00 PM, and there is no lighting facility on the ground.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and well-qualified, and the teaching quality is good. Teachers explain in English, I think, in this college. CSE is a good choice for all semester exams are not too hard, 50% is the passing percentage, and the previous year's questions are enough to pass the semester exam.
Other: Because CSE is my dream branch, it has a high chance of getting a job. There are fan and computer fests and events here.

College has a good ground facility.
Placements: Students become eligible for placements after completion of 2nd year. Our college has collaborated with Microsoft, Capgemini, Amazon, Flipkart, and many other famous companies. The highest package here is 55 LPA and the average package is 6 LPA. Our college is the bossiest and most successful.
Infrastructure: College has a gym facility but its access is allowed only to hostellers. It has a decent canteen facility. The campus will be open from 9:00 AM- 6:00 PM. College ground is the place I hang out the most and the locality is safe.
Faculty: All faculty members here are helpful, most of the times and they are always willing to help you if you don't understand and topic clearly. Here the exam system is completely dependent on the topics you study in lectures. I would say if you learn everything in the class you can score good marks.
Other: We have a main college function and a main sports event every year and several small department functions every year like Pongal celebration, Holi, etc. College has several clubs for the development of students like the photography club, design club, etc.
