Good faculty members and infrastructure. Not much satisfied in placements.

Placements: 20% of students have been placed in reputed banks like SBI and Central Bank of India. Few students are approaching for UPSC, TNPSC, and bank exams. So far, 115 IFOS officers have been recruited and an IAS officer. Some students from sericulture have been placed as SO too.

Infrastructure: Good quality food, proteinaceous food, and snacks and requirements are fulfilled by the management. Wi-Fi is available in hostel and classrooms. The infrastructure is good which provides students with a good environment. There is also a dispensary for students which is used to treat students for an emergency.

Faculty: Teachers are readily and always available for the students and very well qualified. The course is perfectly relevant to the degree. The difficulty of the exams is moderate. The passage percentage is 90%. Only last batch has been sentenced to few arrears due to the pattern of examinations.

Other: I chose this course because I wanted to become an IAS officer. This degree contains various subjects that are related not only to sericulture but also general like economics, psychology, and rural sociology which help in cracking the competitive exams. Events and scholarships can be increased.

Our campus is very good.

Placements: It is a government college, so we do not expect companies to visit our campus for recruitment. This institution provides a lot of knowledge to get jobs through competitive examinations.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and hostel facilities are good. Separate hostels are available for both boys and girls. Hostels are divided into year-wise separations. Each department has its laboratory facility.

Faculty: Faculty members, course curriculum, and exams are good in our college. The teaching quality is good. They also explain topics in powerpoint presentations. Exams are divided into mid-semester, theory exams, and practical exams.
