Review of Kuvempu University.

Placements: University is not bad management but still better, developing more in teaching and new learning programs. Although it's not bad and also not very well. It's carelessness in some activities and too strict in some unworthy activities. The highest package is 6 LPA. The lowest salary is 1.5 LPA.

Infrastructure: Hostel is okay but food is little bit not satisfied, please make it better and not maintain cleanliness. Washrooms are the worst. Labs are not so good. Good labs will be better for better learning. Wi-Fi is good and medical facilities are below average. Hostel should be better.

Faculty: Some faculty members are good but some faculty members are bad which is common in every college. When it comes to exams, it is too high each semester. It will be tough for middle-class families. It is tough to arrange for each semester, and the marksheet is not provided at right time which will be useful for our future.

Other: Scholarships are good. More events are not happening, and sports activities are also good.

Good college that needs an upgrade.

Placements: Placements are not seen in the college. No companies were there for the placements. Not even a single student got placed in my course. 0 percent of students were placed in the companies. Top roles offered after the completion of course are as an assistant lab and technician.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is fine. The classrooms were clean and sufficient for the strength of students in the course. Labs were well equipped with the requirements. No wifi connection is issued for students. The canteen is neither good nor hygienic, and the food is not particularly tasty.

Faculty: Faculty were well qualified and even friendly and were skilled too. Curriculum is relevant and enough for the graduate student. Semester exams were easy and most of the students get passed every year. Approximately 85-90 percent of students get passed every year.

Other: I chose this course because I am very interested in zoology and biology was one of my subjects in pre-university. Application-based curriculum is required for the degree, which is lacking in the course. Campus is full of greenery and it's very good. Fests are regular annually.
