My review about this college.

Placements: The 2-month internship helped in the exposure to industries and later good placements with experience. Placement was very good. Almost 95% students got placed within the graduation. The good companies come for the job recruitment. Also, the pool campus placement for engineering students at Presidency University. The average salary package offered was 3.0 LPA. Top recruiting companies like Wipro, Infosys, Mahindra, Accenture, TCS, Byju's, and HDFC Bank visited our campus for placements. Software engineer role was offered to the students. Nearly 70% of students got internships in different companies.

Infrastructure: Hostels were clean and had 2 and 3 sharing rooms. Each student got their own studying desk or table. Area of the rooms was large, and nearly every room had a balcony. The food provided was South Indian. The quality of food was good but it may taste different to different people.

Faculty: Faculty members were well-educated and knowledgeable. All faculty members helped in making the students better and provided comfortable way of teaching for everyone. But few require proper communication skills as they lack communication skills from teaching point of view. Exam structure was as follows, 2 tests of 30 marks each with weightage of 15% were conducted, 20 marks assignment with 10% weightage, 10 marks quiz and 10 marks other curricular activities with overall weightage of 10% was also included and an end term exam of 100 marks weighing 50% to the overall semester grade was conducted. The course curriculum was well-structured considering the practical view of knowledge. We had numerous industrial visits set up throughout the year. After each visit, we were all given assignments that would summarize the points discussed in those visits.

Other: Presidency College is commonly known as the “Mother of Madras University”. The campus is huge and is close to the Marina beach. The university is very old and the building is about 160 yrs. old. The science departments are a hub of quality research during the time C.V. Raman studied here. It is funded by the government of Tamilnadu. For students who cannot afford private tuitions, the teachers spend extra hours taking special classes. Last year, too, Presidency students came first in all the science subjects in Tamil Nadu. Presidency College is an example of the fact that quality education need not cost the moon. It is a monument to ability and effort, which are the qualities that make good scientists. Most of them studying in Presidency College are boarders. The hostel facility is bad. The placement record for the college is pretty good and students have been placed in many workplaces around the world. The college needs proper maintenance, though. All the faculty have very good knowledge and are well trained to teach.
