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.

If you are interested in forestry, then I suggest choosing this college.

Placements: There are no placements in this college. Still, you can prepare for government examinations such as civil services or state public services. For this exam, professors here motivate you all the time. If you want any jobs, then you should go out and search.

Infrastructure: Hostel and mess facilities are good here. Infrastructure such as labs and smart classrooms are now in development. You can access Wi-Fi with some interruption, and labs here are moderate. Separate medical facilities are available with a doctor. Mess food is ultimate.

Faculty: Faculty members here are good for certain subjects. The course curriculum here is excellent. You can gain practical knowledge. It is a very good college for students who like animals and forests. If you are not interested in forestry or agriculture, you should not opt for this college.

Other: Events and fests conducted here are on the next level, and you can have ultimate fun and entertainment. If you are interested in sports, you can develop your skills. Our class timings are more 7:30 to 5 pm, and there are more field related works.
