About comprehensive course, good placements, and friendly campus environment.
Placements: The highest package offered is around 14 LPA. The lowest salary is 3 LPA, and the average package is approximately 5.2 LPA. Many students also received internships, primarily in IT and consulting companies. About 70% of the students securing internship opportunities. Most roles offered are software developer, business analyst, system engineer, and associate consultant. The placement cell is supportive, and several training sessions and mock interviews are conducted to prepare us for the recruitment process.
Infrastructure: Facilities in my department are quite good. All classrooms have projectors and are equipped with spaces, while high-speed Wi-Fi is accessible across the campus. Our labs are well-equipped with the latest computers and instruments. The library has a large collection of relevant books, journals, and decent reading spaces. Hostel rooms are comfortable and cleaned regularly. The mess provides hygienic and varied food, though it can sometimes be improved. There is a canteen offering snacks and beverages throughout the day. Medical facilities are available on campus with a resident doctor. Sports infrastructure includes a gym, volleyball, and basketball courts. It reflects your personal experience.
Faculty: Teachers in my department are highly qualified, helpful, and approachable. They have the most advanced degrees and extensive subject knowledge. They always encourage us to clarify doubts and take part in the project. The teaching quality is effective, using both theoretical and practical methods, which makes classes interesting. The curriculum is regularly updated to keep up with industry trends, and include relevant subjects, practical labs, and internships. It helps students build both foundation concepts and practical skills, significantly improving industry readiness and placement opportunities. Semester exams are moderately challenging, focusing on both theoretical understanding and practical application. The pass percentage is 45%.
Other: I chose this course because I have a strong interest in the subject, and it offers excellent career prospects. The inclusive classroom environment and regular seminars by industry experts also make the experience enriching. However, I wish the course had more industry-oriented workshops and updated lab equipment. It improves support, and a wide range of electives would also benefit students. The campus conducts vibrant events and fests. It encourages students' participation in extracurricular activities. The surroundings are peaceful and conducive to study. There are various scholarships available for deserving students, and clubs for sports, cultural, and technical interests ensure a balanced college life.

Q:   How does the campus life at Periyar University compare to other universities in India?
ShikshaGPT says
A: 

Students abiding at Periyar University hostels are certainly at an advantage when it comes to hostel facilities. The foundations for the Adhiyaman Men's Hostel and Periyar Maniyammai Women's Hostel were laid in 2007. The hostels are secured by the wardens as well as deputy wardens and mess facility is available to the students. For girl students, a second hostel, the New Women's Hostel, has been completed in 2019.
