Most of the faculty members are reachable.

Faculty: The course structure is highly mathematical and I suggest any aspirants make sure your mathematical skills are up to mark. Having a basic understanding of programming languages and statistics can be very useful. It is a very rigorous course and you will have to put in a lot of effort.

Placements are good it but can be better.

Faculty: Faculty members are very good, helpful, and knowledgeable. Course curriculum is very relevant and rigorous and it makes students industry-ready. Semester exams are rigorous and with a very analytical set of question papers, which is a bit exhausting but helpful in the long term for us.

Madras School of Economics- a newcomer for Bachelor's.

Faculty: Teachers are mostly qualified in the subjects they take up—either Doctorates from IITs, JNU or similar institutes or from abroad. Most of the faculty members are fairly accessible and available. The curriculum is pretty well designed—blenched with practical subjects like Python and MS Excel with traditional subjects. Semester exams depend on the faculties taking the course. Pass percentage varies between 85 and 95%.

Satisfied with placement but dissatisfied with the faculty, except a few very good ones.

Faculty: The teachers are quite helpful and knowledgeable, barring a few. Teachers often use PowerPoint in class. The teacher to student ratio is 1:30 on average. The course curriculum is helpful but could be improved upon to include industry specific skills.

Placements are good with good courses, but the faculty members are average.

Faculty: There are five courses with a properly designed curriculum, and they are introducing more courses to make use of our leisure time as well. Teaching methods are mainly based on presentations. Courses provided by the college are very useful, and the teaching quality is satisfactory. We did not get much industry exposure, but they are trying to provide more industry exposure.

One of the best college for Masters in economics.

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.

Good placements, dissatisfied with faculty and a decent infrastructure.

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

An amazing place for masters in economics.

Faculty: The faculty team of this college is very well-qualified. Each of them is an expert in their field and are very friendly. The teaching was mainly done through powerpoint presentations. There was no industry exposure as the course was an academic course. The course curriculum is extremely useful as it helps MSE students have an edge over students who have done masters in economics from other institutes. The student to faculty ratio was 9:1.
