Reality of MCC - Madras Christian College.

Placements: About 70% of students get placed in the big 4 companies every year. Top recruiting companies like big 4 companies like Deloitte, KPMG, etc., visit the college for placements. The average package is 10 LPA, and the highest package is based on the skills we have.

Just like the spirit of their informal motto, "Live, Love, MCC," you can truly enjoy college life.

Placements: I'm studying BBA. To enter placement, you must have at least 75% in academics, and above 85% will provide great opportunities for good company placements without any arrears. Over 80% of students get placed in good companies, with salaries ranging from 2 lakhs per annum to 6 lakhs per annum.

Infrastructure: The BBA department has a computer lab for practicing Tally, advanced Excel, and research. The infrastructure is good and resembles an older model building but is very strong. The campus provides two grounds for sports, a theater for media studies, a library, and hostels for boys and girls. The campus also features an Innovation Park for startups.

Faculty: Teachers are well-trained, experienced, and qualified. Their teaching is very understandable and helpful. The course curriculum is closely related to industrial-ready concepts. If you perform well in the internal exams and study thoroughly for the semester exams, the semester exam will be easier. The passing mark is 40 out of 100, calculated from both internal and semester exams. There will be three internal exams: two written exams and one talent or practical exam, while the semester exam will be written for 100 marks and converted to 50 marks. Marks allocated for internal assessments are 50 for each; from that, the two best marks are chosen and converted into 50.

Other: I chose this course to gain knowledge about management in business and industry. This department offers many club activities and events like debates and quizzes.

Overall very satisfied with the department and MCC College.

Placements: 25% of students were placed but most students opted for higher education. For our course, we did not get many packages as we were the first batch in psychology. Everyone in our course did an internship in various hospitals and organizations. We did research and attended lots of conferences and symposiums.

Infrastructure: The department has its library and separate classes with good infrastructure for every batch is available. Wi-Fi is available in the college library. The hostel halls in MCC are the best. We get quality food with veg and non-veg options, infirmary is available for emergencies on the campus. There are lots of game activities like inter-hall competitions and inter/intra-department sports meet.

Faculty: Professors are doctorate-qualified. They teach very well. They motivate us to do a lot of research work. The course curriculum is relevant to the latest trends in the industry. Exams are difficult and the pass percentage is 40/100. Overall the department is very good and improving than before with new facilities.

Other: MCC is filled with cultural events throughout the year. Annual events like Deepwoods and the inter hall sports meet are the biggest highlights of the college. The campus spans 365 acres of lush greenery, home to many plants and animals, including deer and porcupines that roam freely. The culture at MCC is distinct from other colleges around Chennai, with its unique traditions and customs.

Student life at MCC, Chennai.

Placements: Around 35% of students are placed in my course or even less for that matter. I don't know anything about the top recruiting companies but they are certainly not big names, only tech firms and just some small tech firms. Mostly, startups will have low-paying jobs but very heavy workloads. The average package is around 8 LPA.

Infrastructure: We have great facilities and infrastructure. Labs, smart classrooms, and new buildings are there. Unfortunately, I am not a college hostel president so I don't know much about that. But I know the annual hostel fee is around Rs 44,000 and with an additional mess fee of Rs 6,000 per month which may vary monthly.

Faculty: Teachers are pretty helpful and knowledgeable. They are really qualified too. Curriculum is slightly outdated but still somewhat relevant. It won't make students industry-ready. None of the degrees do that nowadays but MCC degree does the trick.
