Master of Computer Applications (MCA) - Batch of 2027
Offered by M.G.R College
4.4
Review of M.G.R College for the MCA course.
Placements: 70% of students get placements every year. The highest package offered is 5 LPA. The lowest package offered is 1.5 LPA. The average package offered is 3 LPA. Companies like Episource, LNT Finance, etc., visit our college for placements. Every student should complete internships in their 4th semester. Junior trainee is one of the major roles offered for freshers.
Infrastructure: The college provides a Wi-Fi facility in labs and some classrooms for academic purposes. Classrooms are spacious, clean, and well- ventilated for a comfortable environment. The campus is spread over around 250 acres. The college provides separate hostels for both boys and girls. The college hostel fee is Rs. 60,000 per year for students with food.
Faculty: Teachers in the college are generally helpful, qualified, friendly, and knowledgeable. The college has a large team of faculty members, about 146 full-time teachers. The college is designed to support students in becoming industry-ready and capable of working in a professional environment. Semester examinations are moderate. The pass percentage is 40 percent.
Other: I chose this course because I have a strong interest in computer science and technology. The college should provide more internship opportunities and placement training for students. The college organises various cultural programs, technical events, seminars, and department-level activities throughout the year.

My opinion about the college is that it is a good college with good and experienced faculty members.
Placements: Various national companies visit the college for on-campus placement of students from various engineering departments. Most of the civil engineering students get an average placement of 4 LPA-4.5 LPA. The highest placement offered is 7 LPA. Mostly the college prefers to get the toppers of college in good multinational companies.
Infrastructure: The college has a very good infrastructure and good clean campus. For sports, various grounds and courts are available. In the main ground, the college has planted beautiful almond trees, which enhance the charm of the campus more. The college has various labs equipped with modern instruments machines and equipment.
Faculty: The college has very highly qualified faculty members with more than 10 years of experience in teaching and the field work. The curriculum prescribed by them is very useful and applicable in the present technical world. The faculty always updates students according to the latest technical and scientific knowledge in the present world.The course curriculum is always more practical rather than theoretical. To get what the present and future times requires regarding technology.

If you are bound by all means necessary then decide to go ahead, otherwise it is a waste of time.
Placements: About the placements, you can't say anything. This college is not meant for the placement. You graduate or do a PG from this college on your own. I am working in a private firm called LeLafe, so that I can gain experience and further move on. My college did not help me in any case in this matter.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is at par. I mean, it is not comfortable nor does it is a discomfort to you. It lies at average. Talking about the laboratories, the computers are still with Windows-8, and they think, they are up to date. The labs also need serious upgrades. All the campus around the world has at least a free Wi-Fi. This college does not have that, what a shame.
Faculty: Never ever, in the history of mankind has this college been able to complete any course on time. If the course gets completed with no delay, that means it will take 6 months extra to complete the said course. That also means that it will take 6 to 9 months more for you to get your certificate of completion.
Other: Events, fests and annual events, SSM is all about that.

    Good placements offered in the last year.
    Placements: My college is good. In our college they conduct many events. A few IT software companies visiting for the placements related to the computer application. Our college train the student for the placement attend. Surely the minimum number of the students will be placed in the campus.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is very good. The classroom was very good, and the library facilities are nice. A lot of books are available to read in the library. A playground is available for playing sports. In college, the Wi-Fi speed is slow. The college provides the placement training. A lot of events are conducted in my college. My college is accredited by Anna university.
    Faculty: In my college, many faculty members are working. The working faculty members are experienced persons. In my department, I am studying MCA, a master of computer science. It is a superb course, and a lot of facilities are available to teach.

    Really discouraging faculty, especially from computer science department.
    Placements: The placements are nil. This college will provide you with a false promise regarding placement. The students have to do everything on their own. I mean, the teachers here are not highly qualified which makes it harder to get along. That is why you have to study on your own until the end of the course.
    Infrastructure: Talking about the infrastructure, it is not as good as you think it is. It looks comfortable but isn't. All the colleges have free Wi-Fi facility for all the students, while this college lacks only in this. Medical facilities are rare to see. Regarding sports, you will see everyone on the campus playing some sport. Talking about the quality of labs, they seriously need to upgrade. Events are held on a regular basis.
    Faculty: Most of the teachers are pass outs of the same college. You can't question them about your difficulties. If you do that, they will threaten you to fail you. That is the reason why most people don't prefer this college for post-graduation. I highly recommend that you must not post graduate from this college as it lacks exposure.
