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.

The classes are clean with big windows providing good ventilation.
Learning Experience: Everyone will get placement based on the knowledge and how they used to prepare what they have to taught so placement is completely on their self preparations they provide the support but we have to prepare and we have to select for that interview that is important and placement provided by that college
Placements: From 7th semester students become eligible for campus placements. Infosys, zscalar ,TCS and many more companies visits. Highest package is - 15- 20 lakhs . 70% of students get placements from our college.
Faculty: The faculties approach each and every student in the class and clarify their doubts with more patience. And sometimes, they explain twice or thrice on the students requests. They also explain topics using projector. And conducts tests in every week.
Course Support: Course I am pursuing is hard . Not that much hard but it is hard to understand some many different programming languages. If you can take that much pressure so go for it . There is a improvement that 1 programming languages should take for 1 yr for better understanding and learning.
