A great college if you would wanna be better.

Placements: Almost 80 percent of the students get placement from what I got to know. The highest package offered to a BCA passout must be anything close to 1 LPA. Top roles might be developers, but you have to be serious about your course and score really good marks to have a great future.

Infrastructure: The hostel is pretty comfortable, and water is also abundant. The library is very aesthetic and gives us an entirely warm feeling. Then come the classrooms, which are really spacious, they can accommodate about 60 students at once, and the labs are very cool.

Faculty: The teachers are very polite; they take their valuable time to help us, and the faculty is also great. Most of them are really experienced in the roles they've taken. They provide us with notes and PDFs, and the teaching style is also very understandable.

Other: This course can help me learn programming without further lags or delays like other courses.

M.Sc. in Mathematics - Batch of 2022

Offered by Mahatma Gandhi College, Iritty

3.8

3.0Placements4.0Infrastructure4.0Faculty4.0Crowd & Campus Life4.0Value for Money

Helpful campus for students from Iritty.

Placements: For placements, we mostly approach Kannur University Central drives from the location of our college, it was slightly tough. For big companies like TCS, Infosys, and IBM there was no such support to go through the placement in our college. All our passed-out seniors were working now in big companies, they would have gone through all these battles.

Infrastructure: The college was absolutely suitable for students from Iritty and nearby tribal areas, as during monsoon and climate changes it's difficult for students to go to Kannur to study further. Iritty had good frequent bus connectivity, and most students studying here were first graduates. Hostel facilities are not available, so suggest looking for nearby PG/rooms within 2 to 3 kms.

Faculty: Faculty members mostly cracked KTET and other exams and so proven their eligibility. The main paper covered usual Maths papers like differential equations, matrices, algebra, etc. A few of the elective papers were mostly based on computer applications. Faculty members focused on teaching without wasting single period of time.

A balanced and student-friendly college experience.

Placements: Most students in my course do not opt for campus placements. Many students prefer higher studies. As a result, the placement percentage is relatively low. There are no significantly high-paying package opportunities. Most roles are in teaching, research assistance, or basic administrative positions.

Infrastructure: The college provides basic but adequate infrastructure for our course. Classrooms are comfortable, but some need improvement. The library is well-equipped with useful subject materials. Wi-Fi access is limited. No specific labs required for this course.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful. They are qualified and knowledgeable, along with clear and student-friendly teaching methods. Semester exams are moderately difficult. Students who attend classes regularly and prepare well can pass easily. Pass percentage is generally high. Students interested in higher studies can take this course easily.

Other: I am part of the B.A. The history batch, where most students are focused on academics and higher studies. I chose this course because I have a strong interest in history.
