I was somewhat dissatisfied to be not selected for a job by any company.
Placements: About 40% of the students got placed in our course. The highest salary package offered in our course is 10 LPA, the average salary package offered is 6 LPA and the lowest salary package offered is 2 LPA. Top recruiting companies for our course are media companies like News Live, DY 350, Zee News and Faculty in English Bengaluru. On average, about 60% of the students got an internship from our course in companies like Zee News, News Live, DY 365, LIC and Bajaj Allianz. Top roles offered in our course are lecturer, anchor, writer, newspaper editor and librarian.
Infrastructure: Many facilities are available for our course. Wi-Fi is available at any time and every day, and there are virtual classrooms where teachers teach using a projector. There are 2 libraries in our compound, and they are very big. Facilities in the hostel were not the best, but they were good for living. Quality of food was somewhat not good, but other facilities were good. Quality of food available in the canteen was much better than the hostel. There are medical facilities, and a hospital is nearby our college. Sports and gaming facilities are excellent, and there is a big field where we can play many sports. All sports are available in our compound.
Faculty: Teachers were very helpful, and they helped me in every doubt I had. Teachers were well-qualified, and all have studied English. Most of the teachers have done a PhD in English. Teachers and teaching quality were the best, and they taught properly to students. The course curriculum was relevant, and it helps students to be ready for industries and other purposes.
Other: I have chosen this course because I am very much interested in English. The best thing about our course is the proper teaching skills and friendly behaviour of teachers. Sports in our college, vocational education given by the college and the syllabus of the course were the best. I think that the syllabus could be improved by giving some interesting chapter as chapters and books are somewhat boring. Food quality of the campus was not good, which should be improved. Most of the events are held in our college, which is the best thing as due to which many people get jobs.
