My review of this college.

Learning Experience: Really, I liked the course and subjects particularly in the field of Accounts, Taxation and Management. Those given me the immense support to handle the fund planning situation in the corporate as Senior Manager, Accounts and Taxation. With the passing of time, I grew my knowledge in the taxation field and am still doing the analysis. This course facilitates students in the field of commerce. Successful businessmen should learn from this course. It teaches students about economics, accounts, etc, which is very useful in day to day life of a company or an individual.

Placements: Only IGNOU provides placement opportunities in different companies, and they choose the best candidates out of them on the basis of academic record and communication skills, and also provide them handsome remuneration as per their qualifications. IGNOU has a worldwide recognition as its courses are vast and intuitive, and IGNOU's degree is given importance as it's not very easy to score marks in IGNOU. Companies like Amazon, Flipkart, HDFC Bank, Reliance Industries, Jio, ICICI Bank, etc came for recruitment, offering an average package of Rs 2.5 LPA going up to 15 LPA.

Faculty: All faculty are too good and always there to help, and they motivate the students. The faculty members have a good knowledge of the course, and they are all experienced and have good behaviour and a supportive attitude. From filling out the forms to the examination, they supported us very much. They helped us in our study, and the study materials were also good. They give notes to us during exam time, and they provide important details about the relevant subject, which helps to crack the exam paper. The exam structure is really good. As it conducts the exam on an early basis.

My review about this college

Learning Experience: Course, study procedure, and exam procedure are smooth. In any course at the University, one can get so much knowledge and information. I am so grateful to the University for all these. After my admission, I received study materials and books from the study center. IGNOU sends all study material by post and also a project guide, which is very convenient for the student. It's an open university, so there's no campus placement, but it's the best open university. The evaluation of marks is a bit tough, but it's considered equal to regular universities. Exams are conducted in exam centers.

Placements: College helps you get interviewed by different hotels for the 6-month industrial training program. The stipend offered is approximately 3000. The placement scenario is not that good. According to me, getting a placement depends on a student's academic career: how he has performed in exams, how attentive he was in class, how active he was in group discussions, and so on. Placement depends on all these criteria. Only a deserving child gets a placement. There are ample opportunities for graduates and post-graduates to select the best career for themselves. The placement depends on oneself.

Faculty: All the faculty members were very supportive and friendly. There were both male as well as female faculty members, but everyone was like a real friend, a real teacher, and a real path-showing person. They all treated us, students, as their own children and never made harsh words with any of the students during my study period. The structure of the course was very good and well-organized, but it was on the tough side. Very little focus was given to practicals, but I had to submit 8 assignments in total in the 2-year M.A. course.

My review of this college.

Placements: Internships are completely overtaken by students' choices. The college also arranges some internships. But there is no compulsion. The stipend offered ranges from Rs. 1,000-5,000 per month. A few companies visited the college under the placement cell and recruited a few students. Students should pass in all semesters. After the fourth semester, students are eligible for campus placements. A large number of companies come for placements, like TCS, Reliance, ICICI Bank, etc. The starting package on the campus is Rs. 18,000 per month. Almost 60-80% of students get placed.

Faculty: Faculty members are very educated and knowledgeable. They make the education process very easy. We have one of these faculty members who are very educated and their lectures are absolutely mind-blowing because whatever they taught us in college helped us in our exams. The course curriculum should be easy to understand and it should be student-oriented, full of activities, and not teacher-oriented. The course curriculum should include all topics that will nourish student knowledge and enable us to stand on our own and become job-ready. Our course is up to date. We are provided with industrial exposure to Rajasthan. It is a great trip as we are able to acquire good knowledge over there and overall it is good. There are different teachers for different subject students. So the ratio is 6:120. All faculty members are well-educated. Some are M.com qualified and some are MBA holders. Some are professional degree holders.

Other: I have been interested in accounts for a long, so I chose this course.
