My best college - An honest review.

Placements: Country's top establishments and organizations seek our placement cell to hire us. Almost 95% of the students got placed in these companies. The average salary package offered ranges from 7 LPA - 15 LPA. The rest opted for research opportunities. Most of the students were recruited by leading organizations like HSBC, Nathan Associate, IFMR, Citigroup, Symphony, and Genpact. Final placements in 2019, 114 students were placed. The highest salary package offered was 16.5 LPA.

Infrastructure: Our course had a duration of 2 years and boundless scope was constituted in our curriculum to explore the area of research in the disciplines we wish to flourish upon. Such research opportunities were the best part of our curriculum. Our hostel was the best place and mess was the worst in the college. There was no warden, we could go out at any time but I had heard that things had changed now. College management was little strict. Food was the biggest issue but now the caterer had changed so that was not a problem anymore.

Faculty: Faculty members here consist of guest lecturers from foreign universities too. Most of the teachers were permanent. They shared their experiences with us which helped us and enlightened students too. They were highly qualified. The course curriculum had vast scope for research and other opportunities to learn value-added skills. While we had a lot to learn in our syllabus, never had we ever felt it to be a stress or burden.

One of the best college for Masters in economics.

Placements: 90 percent of the seniors got placed in top firms. Salary ranged from 15 Lacs the highest to 7.5 Lacs the lowest. Average was 10-11 Lacs Companies that visited the campus are American Express, Deloitte, AB Inbev, etc. 40 percent got internship from campus. the highest package was 75 k for internship ( per month).

Infrastructure: Less number of students with decent infrastructure, batch size each year goes to a limit of max 180, comfortable hostel life, a very decent mess food, AC library, chilled campus life, decent classroom 1. The campus is located at the heart of the city with everything available within the range of campus. 2. Safe for girls because of strict rules for both boys and girls 3. Canteen is life there U can't expect more from a post-graduate college offering you placement before you end your Masters. 4 a highly active research cell and placement cell, you are most welcome to come up with your new ideas always, 5 a fully Wi-Fi enabled hostel, though hostel rooms are little clumsy but once you get accustomed to the city, the college and mostly the people around you, it is your other family, you will have a hard time bidding adieu.

Faculty: 1. Faculty is decent since it's post-graduation college, self-study matters a lot, everything can't be spoon-fed 2. They have five courses each course in the first semester are similar to the second semesters you will find differences with each course though not much but you will surely enjoy the course and syllabus structure.

Other: 1. Festive life is great No such festive is left out to be celebrated right from South Indian festivals too. 2 campus crowd is not to be mentioned as a crowd, small crowd so you will know each of them by name, it's more like a family 3. Connectivity is no matter good, markets are nearby, Proper cafes, restaurants, bars, disco everything is closer to you.

Good placements, dissatisfied with faculty and a decent infrastructure.

Placements: The college has superb placements, almost 90% of the students already got placed one more placement session to go. The highest salary package offered was 14 LPA, and the lowest package offered is 5LPA offering roles mainly in financial and data analytics. The placement cell of the college is very effective. The companies also come for taking interns, and the average stipend is of Rs 20,000-25,000 P.M. There are reputed companies like TCS, JP, CITY, Accenture, EXL, and much more which visit the campus.

Infrastructure: All sort of facilities available in the college. The college has good Wi-Fi signals across all the rooms, and the classrooms are pretty spacious. There is also a medical facility in the college for an emergency. There is a small playground, but manageable and the quality of food is not up to the mark on the campus. We are also provided with the canteen in the college itself. The infrastructure of the college is not that good.

Faculty: A few teachers of the college is very good, but rest are either lacking experience, or their teaching methods are not satisfactory. The teachers also use projectors for delivering the lectures, and there is also a big and spacious auditorium. The students to faculty ratio of the college is 20:1. The course curriculum of the college is very good and helpful for the students
