5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

It's a good University of you only plan to focus on studying .

Placements: Multiple companies come, and almost everyone who enrolled for it got placed. Companies like Amazon and many others came for campus placement. Internships are a must in your 2nd year, as you get accredited points based on them. The highest package was about 8-9 LPA. The average package is 3-4 LPA in this University.

Infrastructure: There are 4 buildings where classes are held, and every class has a projector. There is also a library and a reading room, which are open 24x7 for students. The canteen, health centre, Apollo shop, and grocery shop are all available on campus. The hostel facility is provided to people coming from other states, and the fees for hostel rooms are around 250-300 per month. The mess fee is different and depends on how many days you eat in the mess. The average mess fee is around 3k.

Faculty: There is one native teacher for all their respective departments. The teachers are all qualified and have real-world experience in their departments. The semester exams are conducted twice, with 3 internal exams before the mid-term and 3 internal exams before the end-semester exam. You have to pass 2 internals to be eligible to give the end-semester examination and have the admit card issued.

Other: I chose this university as it is a central government university because it has foreign language departments. We don't only learn about the languages but also about the culture and the people.

Our college has good infrastructure.

Placements: The placement cell is not much good. Many companies visit our college to recruit students. They won't offer satisfactory salary packages. If you are planning to learn a foreign language, you don't need to be much worried about placements.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is well-maintained and developed. The hostel has elevators. Our department has classrooms. An elevator facility is available in our department. The hostel rooms are well-maintained and cleaned regularly.

Faculty: Our faculty members are good and experienced. They conduct internal assessments regularly. They conduct three internal exams each semester. The curriculum gets updated regularly according to the UGC. We don't need to worry about it.

Other: Our college doesn't conduct events or fests regularly. It doesn't have a budget to call some artists.

It has a small but a beautiful campus and all the students and teachers are of a friendly nature.

Placements: Mostly all students got placed in every course. But many students decide to do M.A. The average package is INR 4LPA. The top most companies come like Amazon. This university has its own placement cell. It has a small but a beautiful campus and a very peaceful environment.

Infrastructure: There are two buildings for foreign language course. An old one and a new one. There are two hostels for men and three for women. Basheer hostel is for men. There is a mess in our hostel and mess fees ranges between INR 3000 to 3500. There is a canteen and for sports there is a newly open sports complex. There is a health center also but the service is not so good.

Faculty: All the teachers are Ph.D. holders. They are very helpful and knowledgeable. There will be three internal exams from which the best two would be considered and then last sem exam. The ratio of internal exams and end sem exams is 40 and 60 and the exams are difficult.

A great place for learning, not such a great place for making friends.

Placements: Since the course is relatively new and the first batch of students is yet to pass out. But the professors and administration are working towards providing them with the best possible placements. Keeping in mind the recent visit of an official from the KCC the chances look hopeful.

Infrastructure: The college has great infrastructure and a library that provides for not only English language learners but also foreign language learners. It has a vast collection of books for language learners ranging from beginner to highly advanced levels. The hostel facility is really good in terms of not only maintenance but also hygiene.

Faculty: The course is well designed to help students easily learn the language. Not only do the professors maintain a steady pace, they make sure to give each student individual attention and take care to make sure all have learnt and understood the topic before moving on. The curriculum not only keeps in mind students who will appear for language proficiency tests but also those who plan on entering the corporate world.

Other: Every campus will have good and bad people. I have not been the most fortunate in making friends here but I hope other people have a better campus life then I do.

Great infrastructure and facilities at this fee.

Placements: For the placement aspects, I would say the college is still lacking especially considering the Korean Department in which I am studying however things are changing and hopefully it will change more in upcoming years but as you're studying language you should not be worried about placement better focus on learning the language well you can even apply for the jobs outside the campus.

Infrastructure: Well this is the best part of our university, the hostel infrastructure and everything is just too good and well maintained especially if you will consider the fees like the hostel fees. The mess canteen everything is too good however you are going to face difficulties if you are a North Indian.

Faculty: Faculty members vary for different courses like if you are coming to study English then it is one of the best place in the country, for languages also I won't say the faculty members are not good its just varies like in few languages we have a very good faculty whereas in few languages the university need to appoint more experienced professors.
