Supportive faculty members.
Placements: Mssw selects students who have merit scores in their schooling. It also offers seats for SC/ST students. For further higher education, Mssw offers an excellent standard for all colleges. We are networked with various non-government organizations and companies.
Infrastructure: Mssw has an A+ grade from NAAC, which shows that the college has a good library and supportive faculty members both inside and outside the campus. Mssw also has Wi-Fi on campus, and the food is healthy and tasty. In addition, Mssw has all the shops you need nearby.
Faculty: Mssw offers a good balance of theory and practical teaching. The courses are good, and the subjects are easy to learn. The teaching quality is always good, and students have the opportunity to learn from the community. The only downside is that students must have a minimum attendance of 75% to be able to take the exam.

The life at MSW will be very enjoyable with personal and professional learning with satisfaction.
Placements: My class had 40-50 students. Since this is a bachelor's degree, we didn't get placed or get package offers. However, each of us got the opportunity to do internships in various NGOs, such as the Aruvi Foundation, Women of Worth Dignity Foundation, and so on. The roles offered while doing internships were to conduct tasks for the people so they could get connected to each other well, to communicate to people to be an advocate for their problems, and also to help them get identification cards such as Aadhaar cards, ration cards, and some privileges from the government.
Infrastructure: The food in the mess is good and the rooms are decent. The college has a library with a good collection of books. It also has a psychologist and counselors to help students. The college is good at conducting outdoor sports and games such as volleyball, throw ball, shuttle football, and indoor games such as carrom and table tennis.
Faculty: The teachers in our department are very knowledgeable and qualified. They are always willing to help us with any subject, even if they don't teach it. They also help us to develop professionally and personally, and they don't discriminate. The semester exams are usually conducted every six months, and in between we also have internals. The passing percentage is 40%.
Other: I chose this course because I wanted to help people by addressing their problems and helping them help themselves. The course is all about helping others to help themselves. There are two major events that occur in our college: cultural day and sports day. We also celebrate other festivals such as Onam, Christmas, Pongal, and ethnic day. As part of our course, we have rural camps, study tours, projects, fieldwork, and observation visits, which are very useful for getting connected to people and society.

It is an excellent college in India.
Placements: Our college does not provide placements for UG courses. All PG courses have great placements in many leading companies. The salary package offered is 12 LPA. Top recruiting companies like SOS, etc., visit our campus. The top role offered is HR.
Infrastructure: Our college and hostel provide excellent facilities. A playground is available where students can play volleyball. An indoor sports room is available. Wi-Fi is available throughout the campus and hostel. A library is available. Computer labs are open from 8 AM to 7 PM. Our college provides average infrastructure. First aid boxes are available. A canteen and a mess are available. The mess serves food three times a day.
Faculty: Our teachers are well-qualified and helpful. The teaching quality is excellent. Non-Tamil students might find it difficult to adapt to a few staff members who teach in Tamil. The course curriculum is relevant. It prepares you to be a professional social worker. The syllabus is set after proper planning and is updated every few years based on requirements. Semester exams are average, with both theoretical and practical questions. If someone is well versed in the basics, they have a high chance of excelling in the practical question. The pass percentage is 40%.
Other: I chose this course because of my interest in it. Social work not only helps you to work but also helps you to empower and liberate society. The best thing about this course is the field work and soft skill sessions, which help you grow as a person. Our college organises two events, such as DejaVu and Sports Day. Our college celebrates many festivals like Pongal, Onam, Ethnic Day, etc.

Review of Madras School of Social Work.
Placements: I studied medical and psychiatry specialisation, in which I get any campus for my specialisation, not even one. I was very disappointed with the response I got from the placement coordinator. You can get placed in the top companies with very good packages.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is fair. The main highlight of the infrastructure is the library, where you can find very good resources for all courses. The only negative I can say is the Wi-Fi is not so good. Other than that, I am satisfied with everything else.
Faculty: Being a medical and psychiatric social work student, after getting into the job, I had a very strong feeling that my curriculum was not up to the standards of today's practice. Compared to what I learned in my 7 months of the job, I have just learned hardly 25% through my college.
Other: The best about MPSW is the work nature and the level of growth you will acquire. Psychiatry is the best branch in which you can learn more about humans everyday. The one beautiful thing about my college is the culture among the students and friendly faculty. Compared to many colleges, MSSW's faculty members are really friendly and approachable.
