The perfect place to learn and grow.
Placements: Well, we had some non-profit organisations that came for the placements. It is not necessary that you would be paid as per your expectation straight away. The starting was as basic as Rs. 15,000 per month. The students were mostly hired for the field work rather than into the research and operational process.
Infrastructure: The facilities in the college are up to the mark. We had proper computer labs, photography studio, quick responding, and student-friendly administrating staff, regular provision of class notes, and a library that catered books of the various genres. Though the Wi-Fi was a bit of a problem, it is good. We had a common canteen with St. Xavier's College, and the food was edible. There is no hostel provision for the students.
Faculty: We were taught by some of the best faculty members. The course curriculum was flexible. We had regular field visits, and the assignments were assigned to us based on them. We were taught professionally, and the curriculum quite practical and logical.

My PGDM experience in events at XIC.
Placements: So, the placement system for this year was bad. All the course students got placed but not EPEM. This was not the fault of the college but the course head. Each course head was responsible for getting their students placed. Last year, the whole EPEM got placed but this year the placements for EPEM were left to college, and only 4 out of 22 students got placed from EPEM.
Infrastructure: Our college has good infrastructure. Classrooms are well-ventilated, and there is a whole computer setup and projector. I didn't live in the hostel so I don't know much about it. I think they only have hostels for boys where Xavier's students can live.
Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified. They are industry experts and knowledgeable. The course curriculum is mostly relevant but can be worked upon. There are no such final exams, there are tests and assignments for each module. Apart from this, we are marked on our attendance and class participation. It has great faculty members.
Other: I wanted to build a career in the media and entertainment space, so I chose it. Xavier was the best because of the promising placements which they did not provide for EPEM properly. I think events and celebrations could be better for XIC specifically. Xavier's College has its things which are great. The crowd is mixed and nice.
