University College in the heart of Trivandrum.

Placements: I didn't get any placement opportunities from this college. None of them gets any campus placement from our department. Major roles offered in my course are getting an opportunity in the teaching field by qualifying UGC NET. The teachers always recommend history students to qualify NET and become assistant professors.

Infrastructure: Our college and hostel are built in the old British Victorian architecture. But college is not maintained properly. Lack of hygiene, lack of amenities, and toilet facilities. The administration is so pathetic in maintaining the building. College canteen is also very poor.

Faculty: Teachers are well qualified, but majority of them are selfish and not cooperative. Curriculum doesn't make students industry-ready. Exams are not properly conducted. Have a great library for department. This course in this college has a great role in the ranking of this university and provides the creation of a lot of memorable alumni.

Other: The campus is very close to Kerala University's library. It is very beneficial for our future. Rest of all are very bad compared to rest of the other colleges in Kerala. The college still has a great record in NIRF ranking.
