My honest review of my college.

Placements: Around 50% of students get placed in the course. The highest package is 17 LPA, and the lowest is around 3 LPA. The companies that visit the campus include Deloitte, Wipro, TCS, Adani, etc. Most students get internship-cum-placement offers in the 5th semester itself. If any student is unable to attend, the department offers an internship under the guidance of a faculty member.

Infrastructure: I am a day scholar and do not stay in the hostel, but I have visited it a couple of times. The fee is Rs.1500. The rooms have good interiors, are large, and come with attached bathrooms. It is not on a sharing basis. The hostel has Wi-Fi, a TV room, a badminton court, and a well-maintained library.

Faculty: Faculty members are well qualified. Our Principal, Rev. Dr. Abraham, is a reputed clergyman who is known for innovations as a layman. He is the founder of the college, and I feel he is always keen on gaining new knowledge and implementing technologies. Our Director, Dr. M.S. Samuel, is a well-known professor of Mathematics who contributes a lot to studies in the field. The course curriculum is relevant, but the structure of the course is not up to date. Faculty members are good and help students understand the concepts. They are well-educated and hold doctorate degrees in their respective fields. It is the toughest course I have ever attended or heard of. Every mark earned in the three years is hard-earned. There is a lot to learn. The professors set a very high benchmark for students. Industry-level assignments are included in the course curriculum. Professors do not allow students to cheat or copy assignments from the internet.

My honest review of my college.

Placements: We have a placement cell, and one faculty member is appointed as the placement in charge. Initially, the cell provided us training on aptitude tests, numerical ability, etc., and conducted some placement drives. Some companies like Wipro visit the campus for placements, and through the connections of the cell, we got many opportunities to attend placement drives. Many of us got placements in IBS, Accenture, CTS, etc.

Faculty: The college is under MG University, and the course curriculum is well-designed. The university revised the syllabus in 2007. We also have subjects which are purely based on Maths, like auto meta theory and statistics. In the 5th semester, we are given an elective, distributed computing. In the 5th semester, we have a subject called data mining, which has many opportunities for research even today. Faculty members are well-qualified. Our Principal Rev. Dr. Abraham is a reputed clergy man who is known for new innovations as a layman. He is the founder of the college, and what I felt is that he is always keen on new knowledge. It is the toughest course I have ever attended or heard of. Every mark earned there in 3 years is hard-earned. There is a lot to learn. Professors there set a very high benchmark for students.

The best college for pursuing MBA.

Placements: Our college offers excellent placement, as evidenced by the numerous large firms that have visited us, including TCS, HCL, Microsoft, Dell, and Infotech. Due to the large number of students, we are providing them with fantastic employment chances. Because of our excellent package, which costs 18 lacs annually, students in our college are qualified for placement opportunities during the last semester.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are good. Our course does not have any labs. Offered first-rate library resources as well. The library has a wide variety of publications, including novels, autobiographies, and study guides needed for the course. The hostel provides all the amenities you need. The cuisine is of decent quality. Sports are best played in college.

Faculty: In addition to being highly knowledgeable, teachers are also incredibly helpful and qualified. The quality of instruction is good. They don't prepare the students for the workforce. The course is pertinent to the curriculum. Exams for the semester are not that tough. Our course pass rate is 90%.

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Overall, best university for MCA course.

Placements: Nearly 95% of the pupils were assigned to the campus. The range of salaries is 16 LPA to 29 LPA. Companies like Amazon, Cognizant, Flipkart, and others visit our university to recruit students. Nearly 90% of the students were successful in landing internships. The two primary roles that are open are developer and analyst. It is the biggest university in terms of placements.

Infrastructure: Every Thursday, there is a program known as Thursday Meeting. A group of students organizes and leads the one-hour program, which combines entertainment and learning. Each Wednesday, a different group will be present. Students are encouraged to take part in festivals and activities hosted by other universities. Sports are not given equal priority.

Faculty: Faculty members are all very good and collaborative in terms of student achievements. All faculty members are well-versed in their specialties. Faculty member's feedback is always available which helps students to give feedback to the faculty members. This improves the overall effectiveness of the study. Semester exams are easy to score high, and the pass rate is 93%.

My review of this college.

Placements: The placement at this college was amazing. The maximum package was 45 LPA and the average package was around 7-9 LPA. Most students got placed in top tech companies. The placement policy was very good and designed in such a way that most students were placed. Various opportunities were provided for selection in very good companies. Seniors also helped and guided students in their preparations. Approximately every student got placed by the end of the year, with more than good packages.

Infrastructure: Actually, I chose the 2-year MCA course. We had both 3-year and 2-year plans. The course curriculum was easy. I had 4 semesters with 3 practicals, a mini project, and a main project. The last semester was to the main project, and I completed it by myself as an intern. I was a day scholar. The rooms were fully furnished with AC. The meals provided were also quite good, considering all the things. However, the hostel was quite expensive, with fees of 1,40,000 for 1 year, but it was worth it. The meals included all varieties, and breakfast, lunch, snacks, and dinner were served.

Faculty: Talking about the exam structure, it was really cool. I had 4 semesters. Each semester, I had 5 theory papers and a practical. In the third semester, I had 5 theory papers and a mini-project. For the mini project, we had a viva related to the project, and the same applied to the main project in the 6th semester. Coming to faculty, they were well-educated professors. Their classes were excellent and added worth value to my education. They also supported me to do in other extracurricular activities. We had a festive occasion conducted by our department.
