Puducherry Technological University.

Placements: The average package is about 6 LPA, but the highest can be up to 18-20 LPA, and you also get an internship in big companies like Qualcomm and more. The rest is up to you, the harder you work, the more you will get. The T&P cell helps you get a job.

Infrastructure: Hostel life is very good. The food is a little bit average because most of the dishes are south indian, but the taste is very decent and much better than the other college hostel and mess. You can request the menu change as the menu is decided by the students only.

Faculty: Faculty, curriculum, and exams are very good. Some of the faculty are non-cooperative, but the rest are all very good, very helpful, and supportive. They help you in all ways. Exam questions are very easy, but you still have to study very well, and the exams are conducted very strictly.

Satisfactory college with decent faculty members and placements.

Placements: Placements are decent. Most of the students get placed in various companies. The minimum package is 3 LPA, and the median is about 6.5 LPA. The faculty members, especially the training and placement cell help a lot in the placement. Around 45 out of 60 got placed.

Infrastructure: Campus has a central Wi-Fi that works all over the campus. The campus is also very big. Library has more than 8,000 books on all streams of engineering. Classrooms are decent.

Faculty: Curriculum is very good. The teaching quality is also very good, except for some teachers who make college life feel like school life, rest are all good. The exams are comparatively medium level. Sometimes the board asks very tough questions but generally easy. Faculty members are also very good and supportive, except for some.

You can have memories and friends, but they don't offer proper placements.

Placements: Many of them and CSE students got placed in our batch. The highest package is 14 LPA and the lowest is 4.5 LPA. Our batch placement offers in not good in developing the student's skills before the placement offers so it is difficult for many of the students to be placed mostly mechanical and civil students.

Infrastructure: There are no proper classrooms for both students and staff. The hostel is in the worst condition. There is no quality food and water. The building is too old. The library is a good place to read and spend some useful time in our college. The canteen is so good and for six months once we used to conduct sports event without fails.

Faculty: Faculty members are the worst but few staff members are there for the improvement of the students' careers like Elayarani mam and Sathyamurthy sir. The pass percentage is 50 out of 100. In this internal marks are 40 so we can easily score higher in the semester examination without any arrears.

Other: My batch was quite different. Some of them are too good to hang out some of them are so different from ours. Many of them are other state students (tuner, Salem, thuja, prem promote Kar, murali). College has to appoint young staffs to every department. Every year PECOFES cultural fest will give a different vibe among entire college students in Pondicherry.

Campus life and hostel life are good.

Placements: Decent companies come here to the Training and Placement Centre. Moreover, you get an above-average salary. But don't expect extraordinary companies to hire you from here. As it is a Tier 2 college, you should not expect any MNCs to visit. All the best.

Infrastructure: In the hostel, the in and out timings are okay, but the food is typical South Indian and below average. Electricity is there most of the time, but it goes off during heavy rain. Still, there is a generator for power backup. Wi-Fi facility is good, but mobile internet is not there.

Faculty: Most of professors are good, friendly, and well-educated. Most of them are Ph.D. scholars. However, they speak in Tamil most of the time during lectures, as the majority of the class consists of local students. Still, you can ask your doubts, and they will help you. The curriculum and semester exams are on time and well-organized.

The college is good for day scholars but not for hostellers.

Placements: There is 87% placement in the CSE branch, and sometimes it is said that there is 100% placement in CSE. The highest package is 10 LPA to 15 LPA. The average package is 6 LPA and the lowest package is 3 LPA. Wipro, IBM, TCS, Infosys, and Wipro have 89% placement in the CSE branch, and 70% of students from the civil department are placed in Wipro, I don't know the exact value.

Infrastructure: There is no Wi-Fi in the classrooms, but Wi-Fi in the hostel rooms is free. The hostel food is not good yet, and no canteen for hostellers. There are no medical facilities after 5 PM. Sports and games are there, but at night, there are no students on the ground after 7:00 PM, and there is no lighting facility on the ground.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and well-qualified, and the teaching quality is good. Teachers explain in English, I think, in this college. CSE is a good choice for all semester exams are not too hard, 50% is the passing percentage, and the previous year's questions are enough to pass the semester exam.

Other: Because CSE is my dream branch, it has a high chance of getting a job. There are fan and computer fests and events here.

Campus can do more than expected.

Placements: Every year, half of the batch or less than it gets placed. The highest package offered is 8–9 LPA, and the average is 4 LPA. Companies like TCS, Infosys, Capgemini, Cognizant, and other startups recruit every year. From my batch, only 1% of students go for internships in Onebill and CTS. Roles such as Software Developer, SDE Trainee, Business Executive, Hardware Analyst, System Engineer, and Software Tester are offered by companies.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are good for attending classes, but there is no proper Wi-Fi connection anywhere on campus. The library is maintained and accessible to all students. Wi-Fi in the hostel is also not good, and the food quality is average. The food facility is good after the opening of the new canteen. Sports activities are conducted frequently on campus.

Faculty: Teachers are qualified and of great help to students and possess enough knowledge to cover the syllabus. The course curriculum is relevant, but it doesn't make students ready for placements and getting job offers. The syllabus definitely needs an upgrade. The sem exams are average, and the pass percentage is 35%.
