Absolutely valuable, faculty, college life and everything is good.

The college has good faculty and, a peaceful environment with growing career support.
Placements: In my batch, around 45-50% of students got placed, especially from commerce, management, and IT courses. The highest package offered is 5 LPA, while the average is 8 LPA. Some regional firms and a few national companies visit our college.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of St. Joseph University is decent. We have Wi-Fi-enabled classrooms, projectors, a well-equipped library, and basic computer labs. The campus is decently clean, and has a calm and green atmosphere. Hostels are available for both boys and girls.
Faculty: Teachers are generally supportive and approachable. Most teachers are qualified and try to help their students. The curriculum is aligned with current trends, especially in journalism and mass communication, where they even include short-term projects.
Other: I chose journalism and mass communication because I wanted to pursue a career in media and content creation. The best part of this course is the balance between theory and practical learning especially photography, video editing, and reporting sessions.

Come for the degree, stay for the pedagogy.
Placements: You could not expect conventional placement in this program, given the fact that it was at first an arts degree. However I am certain that if you find yourself studying here especially in a degree like B.A. JIP, you will find stocked in you the urge to think critically and engage with academia, your surroundings, and life in general. Many students went on to pursue masters degrees and specialize in their fields of choice while others found employment in journalism, Think Tanks, and public policy adjacent fields.
Infrastructure: We had free Wi-Fi across the campus. Classrooms were beautiful, spacious, and very well-ventilated. The library was wonderful too with an easily accessible digital database of all works currently available. College provided a midday meal scheme for students who may be facing economic hardship. Sports culture was heavy here with one intracollege and one intercollege sports day. All sorts of team and solo sports were encouraged here. The canteens served a massive variety of food as well.
Faculty: Faculty members were incrediblely knowledgeable and approachable as well. Jesuit pedagogy aims towards holistic and academic development, going side by side. Students were encouraged to critically engage with their reading and syllabus while also being given the capacity and skills required to look beyond what was on the reading list. Semester exams were not difficult if you attended classes regularly.

It is good for exposure and socializing.
Placements: They do have placements but mostly for commerce courses. They might recommend you internship for another course. Fewer placements are available for the same. However, the placements offered mostly pay you a decent amount. The college is great for exposure.
Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is great but the reviews on the hostel aren't great. Classrooms have all the facilities with labs and equipment for science students and other labs for research. Washrooms are equipped with sanitary pads. There are multiple canteen providing various types of food.
Faculty: Faculty members are great. They are friendly and helpful. Most of them are young. They are very well in touch with the new topics that might be coming up in research. They tend to listen and solve the queries of students. They encourage students to participate in various events.

Review of St. Joseph’s University.
Placements: I have still not yet entered my final year. I am not sure about placements or have much idea but I heard that the highest salary package offered is 10 LPA. Top recruiting companies like Infosys, Wipro, etc., visit the college for placements. We also have options to apply for internships during our second year in many firms.
Infrastructure: We have a Wi-Fi-enabled campus and a digital library. It has a good environment for studies and engagement. It also has good and budget-friendly canteens helping students to maintain their monthly expenses. It also has spacious classrooms with a decent amount of members.
Faculty: Faculty members are well-trained and versed. All teachers are friendly enough and help us gain real-world knowledge. Semester exams are typically easy if students analyze and study materials are provided. The college provides us with real-time teaching with well-trained faculty members. It has real-time curriculum.
