MCC is unarguably the best college to study any course.

Placements: MCC is one of the best colleges when it comes to internships and placements. Deloitte, JP Morgan Chase, and many other companies offer internships and placements to students of MCC. To ensure the best placements, students are trained through mock interviews and aptitude tests. It builds the right confidence before appearing for placement drives.

Infrastructure: Students from every stream have their own academic blocks at MCC. Even though the college was established more than seven decades ago, each block is as modern as one can ask for. The infrastructure as a whole is excellent. The only problem is that, despite having a large student strength, the hostel facilities are limited.

Faculty: Faculty members maintain academics at a very high standard. I have two major subjects, Political Science and Economics. Faculty members and Heads of Department of both departments are extremely good. In every class, they answer as many student doubts as possible. It ensures that no student feels left behind on any topic discussed during lectures.

Other: MCC has one of the best fests and the best crowd. Earlier, it was only a girls' college, but it became a deemed-to-be university. It has become a co-educational university.

4.4

MCC is marvellous in all aspects.

Placements: The 75-year legacy that MCC holds is because of its placement cell, as it has managed to place N number of students so far. For our department, placements are less, but students do get the right opportunities, and for that no one can actually complain. I hope the placement scenario for our department gets better next year as I will be graduating in 2027.

Infrastructure: Unarguably, the largest auditorium on our campus has a seating capacity of over 2500 students. I have not seen any bigger auditorium than that, as it has hosted various personalities from different fields and even combined guest lectures happen there. There is a girls' hostel inside the campus which is supervised by a sister, and thus discipline of the highest level has to be maintained.

Faculty: Experience is what you can see evidently from faculty members of MCC, as one of the Psychology faculty members has been teaching here for more than two decades now. Since mine is a dual course, the HOD from both of those departments holds a PhD degree. Philosophy faculty also have completed her M.Phil as well.

Other: Around 40 clubs are available at MCC, and one can be a part of as many as they want. The crowd is unarguably the best, and so is MCC's fest as well.

Good college and campus life.

Placements: More than 80 percent of students got placed from our course. The highest package is 36 LPA, the average package is 12 LPA, and the lowest package is 3.6 LPA. Recruiting companies are Wipro, Infosys, Tata Consultancy Services. More than 85 percent of students got internships in Forensic Science Laboratories. Crime Scene Investigator is the role offered.

Infrastructure: Our college has one of the best infrastructures in Bangalore and every classroom is equipped with smart boards which are very useful to understand the syllabus. Our college is equipped with Wi-Fi all around the campus. The college hostel is one of the best, according to my point of view, and the food is great, and the medical team is always available in the hostel as well as in college. The sports department is very encouraging for students, which motivates students to play sports.

Faculty: The faculty members are very helpful and they explain every topic with proper information. They are properly qualified for teaching professions and the quality of teaching is excellent. The course curriculum is relevant and it makes the students industry-ready with the skills required. In my opinion, the semester exams are not difficult because the faculty members explain everything properly and the passing percentage is 35 percent which is given by the university.

Other: I chose this course because the college has a good history regarding the course and the placements. We have the biggest college fest in Bangalore, which is Acharya Habba.

The college experience at St Joseph's University is wonderful and I would recommend it.

Placements: Placements are not a priority in this course as most people aim to pursue higher education. The placements that are available for this particular course are not very good and few are available. Few students applied and were hired but not many good opportunities.

Infrastructure: The facilities provided by the university are good. There is Wi-Fi provided by the university to all students which is high-functioning. There is a very good library with access to academic material. The classrooms are average at best. The food options are very good. The sports and games are also good and the medical facilities are below average.

Faculty: The professors are highly qualified and excellent. They facilitate discussions well in class and encourage and help students. The curriculum to a large extent is relevant and one can learn a lot by studying the course. The exams are not particularly difficult and most people pass easily.

Good college with decent facilities but poor exam management.

Placements: I don't think, there are many placement opportunities. Nearly 15 percent of students get placements but the internships provided by them are very helpful. Students got proper exposure to their work field, which is a very important and crucial factor. There are internships under the commission office, and students get to see proper crime sciences.

Infrastructure: We have proper washrooms, cafes, and basketball courts. The mess in the hostel provides proper food 3 times a day and ensures quality and quantity for the students. The hostel rooms are really comfortable but at times the guards in the female hostel are really rude.

Faculty: Teachers, especially in the B.A. department, are very supportive and helpful. They are frank with students, which makes them more supportive towards us. The semester exams are really easy. Whatever the faculty members teach us in class, the portion in the exam is always relevant to that.

Other: My course is Criminology and Psychology B.A. I chose this course as I have always been interested in crime cases and as it is a two-in-one degree I was really fascinated by the course. The campus is huge and the fest is the best part of the year.

Overall, I have a good experience with balanced academics and campus life.

Placements: Placements for the B.A. in Psychology course at St. Joseph’s University are moderate, as many students pursue higher studies. Around 40-60 percent of students opt for internships. The average package offered ranges from 2-4 LPA. Roles offered are counsellor assistant, HR trainee, and NGO work with support from the placement cell.

Infrastructure: The university provides good infrastructure with well-equipped classrooms, a library, and Wi-Fi facilities. The psychology department has basic practical resources. Hostel facilities are decent, with clean rooms, average mess food, access to medical care, sports, and recreational activities.

Faculty: Faculty members are highly qualified, helpful, and knowledgeable. They provide clear explanations and support. The course curriculum is relevant and covers key concepts through additional practical exposure, which helps with industry readiness. Semester exams are moderate, and many students pass successfully.

Smart college in the modern era.

Placements: So many companies come to my college, like Lenskart, ICICI Bank, Policy Bazar for a Relationship Manager role, even big firm tech companies like Cognizant, Google, and Meesho. One of my seniors got placed from my department at Google and another one at Meesho. There is a 99.9 percent guarantee of placement from our college.

Infrastructure: Very good infrastructure has been provided with access to a smart dashboard and even another ground is available for sports students. Presidency College has made so many changes over the past three years since I joined college, and now it has become one of India's top college.

Faculty: In my department, most of the political professors have completed their education from Delhi University and Ph.D from Jharkhand University. Where we learn a lot from them and this was an unexpected way of learning. Their experience is very nice in their teaching profession.

Other: We have the best head of department. We have the best-qualified professors, which I don't think most colleges in Bangalore have.

Amazing faculty, infrastructure, and facilities.

Placements: I am still studying there, so I don't know much, but my seniors who passed have got jobs in Wipro, Infosys, and there are others also, but I only remember this much. Placements are guaranteed. Apart from that, our B.A. course offers a wide range of activities, event that help you gain real-life knowledge. It also offers additional courses and credit points for those who want to travel for higher studies abroad.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure for B.A. and other departments is amazing. The college has now expanded further, so students will have a much nicer infrastructure. Our college has a Journalism lab/studio, which is equipped with a professional-grade camera and other equipment. I haven't lived in the college hostel, but a lot of my classmates and seniors who passed out have given a good, clean, and calm review of the college hostel.

Faculty: When it comes to faculty in St Claret College, all the faculty members and staff provide a comfortable environment, all the faculty members are highly qualified professionals and ready to help out any time you ask for their help. Every class of every batch has two class mentors who will guide you through any sort of problems one faces with the curriculum.

St Claret College has a safe and comfortable environment and welcomes all the students with a helping and open heart.
